Begin class with meditation and gentle movements building to a few flow sequences accessible to all levels before deepening your practice with restorative stretches. This invigorating and rejuvenating class is sure to satisfy. Our flow classes are designed to be challenging and inspiring. You'll move through a flowing, connected series of postures while concentrating on the breath. Class often starts with some meditative practices, moving to a thorough warm-up so we can really work in poses that allow us to experience our range of movement, engagement, and offer a great stretch. This class will end with a meditation to bring relaxation into the body. Information for studio classes: We are so excited to be back in the studios with you!

Why the same class type can feel different when taught by different teachers: It’s our mission to ensure yoga is accessible and meets your needs! Each Yoga District teacher has their own way of teaching yoga, so we recommend trying a variety of class types with a variety of teachers. With so many options, you're bound to find a teacher and class type that work for you!

Here's what to expect in the beginning, middle and end of class: Classes usually start with a series of "grounding," stabilizing movements. This can help you reconnect your mind with your body, while connecting the pace of body movements to the breath. Then the class usually transitions to more warming, strengthening, engaging poses. Toward the end of class you may find poses that focus on flexibility and release. Class usually ends with a final relaxation in "savasana" pose, during which you can lay quietly in stillness to let go. This combination of practices can help you achieve what some refer to as the goal of yoga: awareness of interconnectivity and oneness, bringing about a compassionate way of being.
