Community Bootcamp Class

Fridays at 8:30, I am teaching a free bootcamp class at Wildflower Park in the Sundance community. It can be a great complement to your yoga sessions. Everyone is welcome! Bring a mat or towel and weights or resistance band and come prepared to work!

Saturday 9/17 schedule

This Saturday the 11:15 class will be cancelled due to a scheduling conflict with Kung Fu. The 12:00 class will be held as usual. We apologize for any inconvenience, and hope to see you at the 12:00 class!

No Class on Labor Day

The Monday 9:00 am Yin class will NOT be held on Monday due to the holiday. Sorry for any inconvenience, and I'll look forward to seeing you on Tuesday!

"Registration Required"

I've had a few students ask me about registering for classes. To clarify, registration is only required for the Friday classes; all other classes need no registration- Just come! For the Friday 6am and 3pm classes, I ask that you give me notice that you're coming. You can either email (chanelle30@juno.com) or call (951-571-3289), and just let me know that you'll be attending. Hopefully that clears up any confusion!

Friday Classes Cancelled

Friday July 9th, both classes will be cancelled. Sorry for any inconvenience!

No Babysitting on the 4th of July

On Monday morning, July 4th, we will still be having our regularly scheduled Yin class, however, babysitting is cancelled for that day.

Yin Yoga

With the recent schedule change of adding a Yin class on Mondays, many have asked, "What is Yin Yoga?" Yin Yoga is a slower style of yoga, with poses designed to stretch the connective tissues of the body. Primary connective tissues include the hips, thighs and lower spinal area. These types of tissues do not stretch the muscles (as in the yang form of yoga) but they stretch and exercise the bone and joints areas of the body. This type of asana practice is beneficial to a wide variety of people.

The postures in a yin class are held for a much longer period of time, generally about three to five minutes, with some poses held even longer.

Yin yoga is a perfect match for yang yoga, and provides a deeper stretch. Although yin yoga is not as intense as other yang forms of yoga, its long duration can be difficult to maintain. Yin greatly increases mobility in the joints, peacefulness and relaxation in the mind, and an overall sense of well being.
