Yoga & Pilates
Offerings
A yoga mat is recommended for all yoga
classes, and is not supplied. Please plan to bring your own. Yoga
mats, bags and carry straps can be purchased at the front desk of
the MAC & Hemenway.
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga
- A fast-paced series of sequential postures, based on 6 series of
asanas, which increase in difficulty, allowing students to work at
their own pace. This class has a heavy emphasis on
strength and fitness. Be prepared to sweat.
Hatha Exploration- An
ongoing investigation of the scientific, creative and spiritual
elements of yoga practice. Areas covered include Hatha
yoga basics, modifications for persons of different abilities
and further in-depth ways of experiencing vinyasa,
balancing, revolving, forward / backbending and inverted
asanas, mantra, pranayama, engaging the bandhas ( energy locks to
strengthen the core body ) and meditation.
Hatha Yoga - Use the
body to attain enlightenment via the performance of asana combined
with breath awareness and meditation. In the process, the
mind, body and spirit come into alignment and unite. This is
a slower, gentler form of yoga, and perfect for beginners.
Iyengar-Inspired
Yoga- Iyengar yoga is distinguished by its
integration of strength, flexibility, and balance. Expect to
cultivate all three in this challenging class! The Iyengar method
also integrates yoga philosophy and breathing techniques with the
poses, resulting in a well-rounded practice. Classes typically
begin with vigorous, energizing poses to get the body warmed up,
and then move into deeper stretches and relaxation. These classes
feature longer holds of poses, rather than flowing quickly through
a sequence.
Power Yoga - A
vigorous flow class focusing on strength, balance - and through
them both - an open body and mind. Not recommended for
beginners.
Vinyasa Yoga
- A strength based form of yoga that
links a series of postures together in a flow of breath. This
is a vigorous style of yoga - be prepared to sweat as you increase
your flexibility, strength and balance.
Mat Pilates- A
strength building class which uses your own body weight to build
core strength, balance and good posture. This traditional mat class
will incorporate resistance tools such as the Pilates Fitness
Circle that will result in a stronger, leaner and more defined
physique. This class will target the Pilates Powerhouse which
includes CORE muscles, glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps, adductors
and abductors!
Power Pilates- This
class is for the intermediate pilates student who has participated
in a minimum of 15 previous Mat Pilates classes. Not
recommended for beginners.
Vertical Pilates Strength &
Grace: This class is a fusion
style workout drawing from elements of ballet, fitness, pilates and
yoga. The first half of class will focus on muscle endurance,
balance and dynamic flexibility through a vertical sequence of
powerful and graceful exercises. We'll end with traditional pilates
moves that target the Pilates Powerhouse which includes CORE
muscles, glutes, hamstrings, uadriceps, adductors and abductors!
This is a barefoot class.
