Class Descriptions & How to Join

Laughing Yoga

All are welcome to all yoga classes.  Listen to your body, mind and heart.  Work at your own pace and modify as feels right to you.  Yoga is a gift and a birthright to all.

 

Yoga practices differ on many things but all of them agree that the main goal of yoga is to connect to the “True Self” in the heart--however you define it--be it Consciousness, Spirit, the Divine Within, or simply your Best Self.

Class Descriptions & How to Join

​

 

Monday 6:00 pm - Livestream + In-Person "Happy Hour" Yoga

Vinyasa Flow Yoga - Open Level (Level 1/2)

The Yoga Common

 

Happy Hour is the time of day when people sometimes have cocktails, so these evening classes are named after that time of day.  The actual format is Vinyasa Level 2.  To take this class it is good to be familiar with the names of the poses and the basics of how to do them.  Vinyasa yoga flows from one pose to the next with the breath.  It is dynamic and energizing. Sun Salutations are practiced, along with a flowing standing sequence, backbends, twists, deep stretching and relaxation.  All are welcome. Any injuries or conditions, let me know before class.  I will be happy to offer modifications for you.

​

This class is offered In-Person, and you can also join from home via Zoom.

 

To join this class, sign up on the The Yoga Common website.  Single Class and Membership Options Available.  They also have a special for new clients.

Friday 9:00 am - Hatha Yoga (Senior Friendly)

The 14th Street Y (YMHA)

 

Online class only.  Soon we will offer in-person + online.

 

Hatha Yoga is Classic Yoga.  There are no sun salutations, and the class is organized so it is easy to take, no matter your injuries.  We begin by stretching while lying on the back, progress to some postures on hands and knees.  Next, we practice standing poses, balancing poses, and finish up with some poses to strengthen the arms, bones and improve posture.

 

Extra attention to balance, posture, and bone-building.  This class builds up to a pace, but is calming.

The basis of the body is divine.  There is no reason why anyone should think the body is impure or unworthy. All matter is alive and conscious.  --Hatha Yoga Pradipika

"Chintamani’s yoga classes are both challenging and fun. Chintamani’s pose sequencing is always creative and varied.  Her sense of humor, generous spirit and eclectic taste in music set the tone for a thoroughly enjoyable class.  I always leave her classes feeling calm, strong and lighthearted.​"
