Transform Your Life with Stava Yoga

Hatha Yoga is a traditional style that emphasizes balance, alignment, and mindful movement. In this class, you’ll be guided through a variety of postures (asanas) and breathing exercises (pranayama) designed to build strength, flexibility, and awareness. Each pose is typically held for a few breaths, allowing you to connect deeply with your body and breath. Hatha Yoga is a grounding practice suitable for all levels, providing a well-rounded introduction to yoga while enhancing both physical and mental clarity. 

Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative practice that targets the deeper connective tissues of the body, such as the ligaments, joints, and fascia, with long-held, passive postures. In this class, we will gently stretch and lengthen muscles, encouraging flexibility, release, and relaxation. Each pose is typically held for 3-5 minutes, allowing for deeper access to both the physical and mental layers of tension. Yin Yoga is suitable for all levels and provides an opportunity to slow down, cultivate mindfulness, and nourish both body and mind. 

Restorative Yoga is a gentle, calming practice focused on deep relaxation and stress relief. Using props like bolsters, blankets, and blocks, each pose is fully supported and held for extended periods, allowing the body to completely relax and release tension. This class emphasizes breathing and stillness, creating space for the nervous system to shift into a state of rest and healing. Restorative Yoga is ideal for all levels, offering a nurturing experience that supports physical, mental, and emotional well-being. 

Chair Yoga is a gentle form of yoga practiced sitting on a chair or standing while using a chair for support. This class is designed to improve flexibility, strength, and balance in a safe and accessible way, making it ideal for those with limited mobility or anyone new to yoga. Chair Yoga includes modified versions of traditional poses, breathwork, and relaxation techniques to help reduce stress, increase body awareness, and enhance overall well-being. It’s a welcoming practice for all ages and abilities, offering the benefits of yoga in a comfortable, supported setting. 

This class is designed for those with a foundation in yoga who are ready to deepen their practice. We’ll focus on building strength, flexibility, and balance while exploring more challenging postures and transitions. Expect a dynamic sequence that encourages mindful alignment, breath control, and body awareness. Modifications will be offered to support your practice, allowing you to honor your body while expanding your capabilities. Perfect for those looking to progress their skills, this class is a step towards greater confidence on and off the mat.
