YOGA STYLES

ISHTA means "Individual": I address practice to your individual needs, per day, per season, whether you're a group class, a private or semi-private session. ISHTA Yoga is also my Yoga lineage: Certified 2002 E-RYT 500 by 2nd Generation ISHTA Yogiraj Alan Finger. Check my ZOOM schedule for weekly Slow Flow Meditation, Yoga Nidra, Restorative and Yin.

VINYASA means breath linked to movement; as such, it is a moving flow stimulating heart and lungs, muscles for strength, and joints for flexibility, and addressing all directions of the spine, in standing, seated, and balancing postures, for an all-over workout of body and mind.

RESTORATIVE Yoga is deeply restful, fully supported poses using gentle propping of pillows and blankets, for restoring our body's own natural healing rhythms, through our "rest and digest" parasympathetic nervous system. It is said that an active yoga practice requires Restorative at least once a week to balance; more often if your life is more active. I have been leading Restorative Yoga Teacher Trainings since 2010.

YIN Yoga cultivates calm and deep stretch, with poses held 3 to 5 minutes, to promote more health, longevity, and suppleness in all joints, bones, and the nervous systems supplying blood and circuitry through our fascia. Check out my weekly classes at the Schedule tab.
