Vinyasa - Up Level (Vinyasa - Up Level)

About the class: Up-level is for more advanced students who have a foundation in yoga and want to grow their practice with more challenging and difficult postures. Vinyasa is a style of yoga that focuses on linking breath with movement and flowing from one posture to the next. Therefore, it is a flow type of yoga with few breaks, and definitely a bit sweaty. You will learn to perform a series of strengthening and balancing postures for the entire body, and have the opportunity to push yourself to your own level. Because of its continuity and variety, Vinyasa yoga raises performance, flexibility, balance and focus. About the teacher: Training: I received my 200 hour certification in Vinyasa yoga, and have delved into a deepening study with Bhava Vinyasa, a healing centered flow and restore yoga. My teaching and practice are influenced by both Prana Flow and Anusara yoga. Yogis whose workshops I try not to miss include Shannon Paige, Chris Muchow, Douglas Brooks, Lorin Roche, Ana Forrest and so many more!
