Class Descriptions

Sivananda

This holistic approach enriches the classical forms of Hatha yoga with ancient Vedantic philosophy. A unique method combining mantra (chant), pranayama (breath), and asana (physical postures) with moments of savasana (rest) to create an experience of moving meditation. Come observe your practice from the inside out.

Sivananda All - This class is appropriate for all levels of ability.

Sivananda Mixed - This class is appropriate for beginner and intermediate.

Sivananda 2-3 - This class is appropriate for intermediate and advanced.

(see Articles/Sivananda and Sivananda Beginner Workshops )

Hatha Flow

Explore your practice while learning complimentary techniques to the traditional methods of both Ashtanga and Sivananda yoga. This synergetic flow combines the dynamic and subtle aspects of each tradition while adjusting to the individual personality of each class. Take a break from the prescribed sequence of postures - walk on the wild side!

Flow All - This class is appropriate for all levels of ability.

Flow Mixed - This class is appropriate for beginner and intermediate.

Flow 2-3 - This class is appropriate for intermediate and advanced.

Ashtanga

This dyanmic and challenging class transitions fluidly through each posture of the primary series as taught in the tradition of Sri K. Pattabhis Jois of Mysore, India. Utilizing the pace of the breath and subtle energy within the body - students learn how to move more efficiently and with ease through the prescribed sequence of postures. Together these techniques are utilized to maintain a rhythmic flow, focused concentration, and natural detoxification through the development of internal heat. Prior yoga experience is required.

(see Articles/Ashtanga and Beginner Ashtanga Workshops)

Meditation & Techniques

While no one can be taught *how* to meditate, we can use tools for fine tuning our perception of inner awareness and discover for ourselves. Learn philosophies and techniques from both the Buddhist and Vedantic perspectives with at least a 30 minute meditation to practice.
(see also Articles/Why meditate?)

Yoga in the Park

Adopt a park and help to bring yoga into your community while beautifying the spaces that surround you. Each one hour classes offers an introduction to the physical postures, breathing, and relaxation techniques of yoga. Following the class, trash is collected as a group gesture in gratitude for the space. Donations are also accepted. Weather permitting, classes are conducted outdoors or indoors if space is allowed. Blankets are provided although students are encouraged to bring their own or a large towel. All levels welcome.

Burly House

This class is a fun and unique way for friends to get together and neighbors to finally meet. Rather than travelling to the other side of town to find a class, we have brought yoga to the suburbs of south Austin. It is with great pleasure that i invite you to the Burly House ~ our home. All levels welcome.

Yoga for Children

A fun and playful class allowing young people to discover their natural movement and abilities, while also exploring methods to relax and breath. Working within the natural context of their own bodies, the children learn traditional yoga postures and concepts along with exercises, games, role-playing and songs to better understand themselves and their relationship with each other and the outside world. Class duration is one hour and adapted for ages 3-5, 6-9, and 10-13 years. Kids only, sorry mom and dad ;)

Yoga for Equestrians: Awareness, balance, alignment, focus, flexibility, strength, sensitivity and relaxation. These are the basic building blocks of both the ancient traditional practices of horsemanship and yoga. Equestrian Yoga is a holistic approach toward the integration of body with mind and rider with horse. A conscious and balanced union creating in essence a dressage class for the rider.

Private Classes

Private Group: Preregistration for a 6 week class that meet once a week for an hour to three hours depending on topic and needs. Class material is cumulative and builds on the weeks previous lesson allowing for greater insight and understanding of one's own personal practice. Fees are $60 per hour and can be divided by up to 15 students (thats only $4 for a one hour class!)
