We all carry a great deal of tightness in our hips and low backs and if this tension can be alleviated even a small amount we'll immediately feel better in our bodies.  Hip Yoga is slow paced and very relaxing as we focus on deep breathing and the 'magic' of the release the breath brings in each pose. All the poses are done on the floor with props and supports so that absolutely everyone is able to participate. Very beneficial as cross training as well.  Perfect if you ARE hip or HAVE hips :)

This slower moving, very meditative class weaves physical poses, breath, and inner awareness together to create a deeply calming experience. Observation of thoughts and physical sensation is used as a doorway to a quieter mind.  Includes a deep relaxation, breath work (pranayama) and meditation.  Meaningful and appropriate for everyone regardless of previous experience.

Yoga Nidra Guided Meditation

Yoga Nidra is receiving attention from the medical community, therapists, those seeking more peace in their lives, and those seeking a greater connection with their own spirituality.  Lying down, a guided relaxation takes you deep inward through the levels of your being as you set a personal intention specific to your life.  This method has proven effective in aiding healing, stress relief, addictions, feelings of loss, and releasing long-standing behavioral patterns.  This guided meditation leads to complete physical, mental, and emotional relaxation.
