Vinyasa Flow Yoga


Time: 02/21/2012 @ 09:30 am - 11:00 am
Location: RSY Surya Room
Class: Vinyasa Flow Yoga
This class will keep you moving from beginning to end (until Savasana). Expect movement, not just stretching. All levels are welcome to practice to your level of expertise. The word 'Vinyasa' means "breath-synchronized movment". In other words, you will move from one pose to the next as you continue to breathe your exhales and inhales. This technique is sometimes also called Vinyasa Flow, or just Flow because of the smooth way that the poses run together and become like a dance. Vinyasa's strength is in its diversity, so there is a lot of room for your individual self to shine through.
