​
Hive Yin Yin is a static practice that improves mobility, flexibility, and the health and strength of joints. It facilitates safe stressing of the body's connective tissues by working slowly and with time. Because of this, Yin typically has longer-held postures centered around releasing tension, resulting in deep relaxation and improved flow of the body's energy. This style of yoga is an excellent complement to more active styles of yoga or simply all on its own. It is also a great companion to an active lifestyle, hobbies such as golf, cycling, swimming, and tennis, or simply sitting at a desk frequently. All levels are welcome and absolutely no yoga experience is necessary. This is a great class format for beginners.
​
Hive Yin + Yoga Nidra is a similar format to the classic Hive Yin, however, the class culminates in a yoga nidra practice led by your teacher. Also called yogic sleep, yoga nidra is a form of guided meditation that leads your brain through different brain waves in stages and, in doing so, allows the body to arrive at a place where it can deeply repair and heal. It is said that forty-five minutes of yoga nidra feels like three hours of the best sleep you've ever gotten!
​
Hive Slow Flow is an all-levels class that moves at a soft pace, gently working through foundational yoga poses. The format is designed to ease you into the practice, giving you an opportunity to move through poses at a slower pace as well as spending more breaths exploring each posture as it lands in your body. Total beginners all the way up to advanced practitioners can take away something meaningful from this class. Standing, seated, and balancing sequences will be taught. You will leave feeling grounded and good.
Hive Slow Flow + Jazz is designed to help prepare you for the week ahead by combining slow-flowing poses, steady breathing, and smooth Jazz music. The format is gentle and open to everyone. It's perfect for those newer to yoga as well as those who have been practicing for years. You can expect long holds, deep stretches that focus on large muscle groups, and the therapeutic benefits of Jazz music. Research shows that Jazz music stimulates a calming effect on the body. It helps improve verbal ability, focus, memory, and mood.
​
​Hive Mysore is perfect for beginners and advanced practitioners alike. Ashtanga is a set sequence of postures. The repetition of postures creates a familiar pattern in your body and helps you commit them to memory. The nature of this class is that it is self-led. Instruction and adjustments are tailored to the individual needs of the practitioner. You will begin by learning sun salutations with the correct form. You do not need to be here at 6am sharp -- you may come and go at any time during this class. Beginners, please allow for 45 minutes to an hour. This is a transformational practice! Show up for yourself and see what can happen.
​
Hive Meditation & Pranayama is an all-levels class that begins to explore other limbs of yoga.
