This Pilates practice focuses on the core, abs, glutes, legs, upper body & mind - all with Pilates principles engrained.  

 

It is an HIIT (High-intensity interval training) workout which involves bursts of cardio excerice followed by brief periods of rest. 20 seconds of hard work followed by 20 seconds of rest trains the mind & body to know that we can do anything for 20 seconds.

 

It is SO fun - upbeat music, detailed and specific instruction. It is all science based combining aerobic & anaerobic workouts into one training session. You will be burning calories while improving endurance, building stamina/strength & increasing flexibility (both mental & physical).  Strong mind, strong body.

 

The room will be warm in order to loosen up the muscles & make you sweat! There are modifications to accommodate all students. Most importantly, everyone does the best they can with the best they've got.

This class is designed for the beginner and intermediate student who is looking for a fun way to get moving.

 

Dance F.I.T. Fusion is filled with mixed genres of music and movement, sure to inspire and motivate. F.I.T. stands for Fitness, Inclusion (of all shapes, sizes, and gender identification), and Teamwork. Everyone is welcome and nurtured in this inclusive environment.

 

The class will end with a thorough cool down, stretch, and a light meditation for centering and thanks.

 

Class is limited to 8 participants and requires a minimum of 3 sign ups to run.

We begin on the floor with subtle movements to warm the body and release the fascia.

 

Then we practice gentle yoga postures to increase flexibility, strength, and balance.

 

We end class with restorative poses that offer passive stretching of the body and deep relaxation. All are welcome to join this class to renew, relax, and restore.

A non-flow class using stillness to strengthen, lengthen, and hydrate deep connective tissue to increase flexibility and mobility.

 

The practice of long, passively held floor poses balances the flow of energy and improves our physical and emotional health. All levels are welcome. No yoga experience is necessary.

Heart Songs & Circle Songs is an ongoing interactive project to nurture harmony and community in the world through the teaching and sharing of original songs.

 

In worship service, song circle, workshop, or concert format, Heather and Bernice bring this work into churches, schools, homes, community centers, informal gatherings, and anywhere that the ideals of harmony and unity may take hold.

Join us for a dynamic, restorative practice that focuses on quieting the mind, settling the body and connecting back to your natural rhythm.

 

We will begin with some gentle movement and stretching then end with deep stillness of restorative yoga poses. There will be mindful pauses throughout for centering, connecting to breath and softening any restlessness that creeps back in.

In this class we tune into the rhythm of our breath and begin to move
with ease and grace.

 

We create strength and flexibility and we embrace stillness.

 

Tension and stress are released from the muscles and joints as the body opens. You will leave class with a sense of stability and connection to the body, mind, and spirit. All levels are welcome.

You’re invited to slow down and sink in to this 3.5 hour practice where we will have the opportunity to go deeper into 3 major elements of yoga: asana, breath and meditation.

​

Simply put, we will have greater time to be still, to move, to rest and to breathe and to bask in the spaciousness that our practice can offer.

​

Practice will be largely in silence, with opportunity to open up and share at the end. All skill levels are welcomed.

This 90 minute practice is based on the Ashtanga Primary Series for the purpose of cleansing ourselves of that which holds us down.

 

We subconsciously store memories, toxins, injuries, emotions and more in the cells of our body. The vigorous movement of this class aims to release this unhealthy storage with a result of lightness of being and inner peace.

 

The structure of the class will be largely dependent on the experience of the students present that day. Modifications are available for all levels of students, but those looking to challenge themselves will most enjoy this class.

This all levels, 75-minute class will typically begin with grounding and centering breathwork on your mat.

Breathwork techniques will be introduced or reviewed so that students may return to one of the techniques as needed. We will work on gently opening and releasing grief from the heart and lungs.
 

Postures that help to release emotions and that return us to the strength of our physical foundations will be explored.

​

Class will come to conclusion in supported, gentle postures and an extended savasana.
