Vinyasa, in Sanskrit means to place in a special way. At Shanti, we offer vinyasa flow as movement based class that connects physical movement to prana (breath) so that you can learn to move through postures postures and breathing in sync.

This class offers a range of postures including Surya Namaskars, standing hip opening and neutral postures, twists, backbends, inversions, forward folds, and more that are appropriate to the level.

Beginners classes emphasize breaking down the anatomical form of commonly practiced “Blue Print” postures such as plank, cobra vs upward facing dog, warriors, introductory backbends/twists/forward folds, core work, and much more.

Expect to move dynamically, increase strength and flexibility both physically and mentally, and challenge yourself!

All classes at Shanti incorporate 2 - 4 minutes of dedicated breath work and/or meditation, a group OM, and a chance to meet a fellow yogi in the community so help you find your peace.

Check that you're in a room with enough space to practice, good internet, and consider headphones to better hear and concentrate on the experience.
