Forrest Yoga
Strengthen your core through carefully designed postures that work to support your abdominals, hips, back, shoulders, upper body, legs, and more. Open to all levels, each class begins with a breathing exercise (pranayama). Then moves into some abdominal work and additional postures to open and brighten body and spirit. This practice is great for working with an injury as well as pre and post-natal students. Pregnant women will be given modified postures during abdominals. This class is done in 85-90 degree heat.
Hot Hatha
This class consits of a series of 26 basic yoga postures practiced in a 100 degree room. It is open to all levels of practitioners and has no weight bearing poses on the wrists and shoulders, making it great for those who may hold injuries in these joints.

Pilates
Based on Joseph Pilates work founded over 70 years ago, this hour class is designed to work the abdominals, back, shoulders and hips. This is not a yoga class but instead a great body practice that compliments yoga. All classes are done on the mat at room temperature. Come enjoy this aerobic mix of core strengtheners!
Power Vinyasa
Similar to the other vinyasa classes, but heated to 95 degrees and, often, more vigorous.
