Class Descriptions:
Open Vinyasa Class-
Suitable for beginners and all levels. In these classes, we link a series of poses together using our breath and each participant is encouraged to go at his or her own pace, depending on fitness levels and individual needs. I offer modifications (for beginners) and challenges (for more advanced yogis) to each flow series, in an effort to meet the needs of all individuals in the class.
Prenatal Class-
In my prenatal classes, I focus on offering mothers with a quiet place to turn their focus inward and bond with their child, while strengthening their bodies and utilizing the breath (preparing for birth). These classes also offer women a time to be comfortable with the changes in their bodies, throughout pregnancy and bond with other women who are pregnant. This is suitable for women who have prior yoga experience, as well as those who have never tried yoga, prior to pregancy. Similar to the Open Flow classes, I offer modifications and challenges to each pose, depending on needs and goals of practice.

Course Description:
This informative workshop gives instructors the tools to create inspiring vinyasa yoga classes that are founded on flow yet grounded in the safety of exercise science. The learning includes physical execution, transitions, and modifications to traditional yoga poses with an emphasis on effectiveness and safety. Dynamic vinyasa sequencing, flowing class formats, and transformative language for communicating the mind/body connection have made this the most popular vinyasa yoga style in the world today. While most attendees have experience as either yoga students, teachers, therapists, or as fitness professionals, there are no prerequisites, only the desire to learn and commitment to attend. Level 1 includes an innovative and experiential learning environment guided by a talented and experienced YogaFit Master Trainer, a YogaFit Level 1 DVD and Active Volume 3 CD (first-time participants only), and a comprehensive training manual.
YogaFit has trained thousands of people worldwide. Students will receive a Certificate of Completion which qualifies one to teach YogaFit style classes once Communtiy Service is complete. In order to receive the Level 1 Teacher Training Certificate of Completion, YogaFit requires the Level 1 Trainee to donate 8 hours of practice teaching in a community service setting, bringing the gift of yoga to individuals who would not normally be exposed to yoga on a regular basis.

Getting ready for Boston!

Getting ready for the Boston Marathon and had a very relaxing practice this evening which has helped me calm some of my nerves and feel very strong for the race! I was reflective tonight, on how yoga has changed so many aspects of my life, including my running. I feel faster from the inside and out and far more flexible! Am excited to see the results in my race on Monday.
Wishing everyone a great weekend!
