This class focuses on yoga asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing exercises), and helps to bring balance to the body. Emphasis is placed on core strength, flexibility and balance as well as concentration and breath control. Basic, intermediate and more advanced variations of the asanas will be provided with a focus on proper breathing and safe alignment. Meditation, guided imagery and relaxation will also be incorporated to support deep relaxation. Whether a novice or seasoned yogi/yogini you will leave this class feeling both recharged and relaxed.

This class is a fusion of vinyasa flows and longer holds of yin yoga. The vinyasa portion will connect breath with movement through asanas, while the yin portion of class will give you a deep stretch to target deep connective tissue. A great combination to fuel your body, mind, and soul. This class is suitable for all levels of experience, with modifications provided.

This 2005 Tony winner for Best Musical is a hilarious musical comedy based on the iconic 1975 film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. An absurdist farce of the musical theatre canon, Spamalot follows King Arthur in his quest throughout England to recruit his Knights of the Round Table. After gathering in Camelot, Arthur and his gang of misfits are sent on a quest to find the Holy Grail. Throughout this bizarre journey the group comes in contact with many challenges and characters that continue to test their strength and wits, neither of which are impressive. Spamalot is both a celebration and critique of the human condition. It is a glimpse into a society that seems to exist simultaneously in the Medieval Period as well as 2020.
