Class DescriptionsIntro to Yoga Series: An 8-week series for the brand new student. Learn safe practices and the fundamentals of Yoga.
Beginning Yoga: Any and all new students to Yoga are welcome to attend. Classes focus on basic poses and conscious breathing techniques. Specific instruction is given on alignment and safety.
Beginning / Intermediate: Build upon the basic standing and seated postures taught to beginning students. Intermediate classes can be more vigorous as they focus on building strength and stamina in the poses.
Intermediate / Advanced: Deepen the focus and intensity of your practice. Learn variations of fundamental poses. Inversions (headstands, handstands, etc.) and more advanced poses are taught. .
Advanced Studies Program (by application only): This is a 200-plus hour program offered once a year over an 8 month period. Developed to comply with the registration standards of Yoga Alliance (www.yogaalliance.org) this program develops an all-around understanding of yoga anatomy, physiology, philosophy, methods and techniques - as well as prepares the student to teach.
Relax & Renew Yoga: A healing practice of supportive and restorative poses which relieves tension and stress throughout the body. Beginners welcome!
yoga@noon: A one hour-15-minute "vinyasa" flow class to invigorate your noon hour.
Women's Spiritual Group:The Sunday Women's Spiritual Group meets from 7 to 8:30 p.m. each Sunday at Downtown Yoga. The group's intention is to explore and share our experiences with spiritual teachings and praciices, both ancient and modern. Each meeting begins with 20 minutes of meditation, which is followed by a discussion of the book we're currently studying. Previous books the group has read include: Using the Science of Mind by Ernest Holmes, Communion with God by Neale Donald Walsch, The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, The Places That Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times by Pema Chodron, The Beginner's Guide to Insight Meditation by Arinna Weisman and Jean Smith, The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, edited by Chip Hartranft, A Thousand Names for Joy, by Byron Katie with Stephen Mitchell. We focus on sharing how we apply the teachings from these books and the practice of meditation in our everyday lives; members find it's a rich exchange of experience and insight and a wonderful way to start the new week. The group is open to all women. We each give an offering of $5 every Sunday to support the studio For more info contact: jane.murphy1@comcast.net (925) 425-9252 or (408) 398-1098 (cell)
Private Sessions: Kate Coughlin, Director of Downtown Yoga, is available for private, one-on-one consultation and instruction. Many students find that during concentrated one-on-one time they are able to deepen their practice to the next level. Kate has the ability to tailor a sequence of postures specifically to each individual's personal needs. During a one-on-one session the yoga instruction offered will be more personal. Thus, you may find a one-on-one session far more intensely therapeutic than what you would feel during a group class.
Your first 1˝-hour session includes individual assessment and private practice design at a cost of $85. Follow up with one-hour private sessions at $60 per hour. You’re invited to contact Kate by phone at 925.819.9983 or email at asanakate@yahoo.com to schedule a weekday or weekend appointment.
