Classes

Each day on your mat is a beautiful opportunity to pour your heart into your practice whether it is your first day in yoga or your 5,000th practice. Although our classes can be physically demanding, HeartYoga is a safe space to be as you are. All of our classes are breathing classes first; everything else is secondary. All are welcome!

Follow the Yogi

Set in a quiet, hot room, Follow the Yogi is a series of powerful, ancient postures based on the Ashtanga yoga system that support strength and vibrancy within. This is a chance to practice along with your teacher and create a communal yoga spirit. Keep in mind instruction is minimal and this class is not appropriate for first-time yoga students.

Hot Vinyasa

Hot Vinyasa is an invigorating class of flowing postures to inspiring, upbeat music. If you are looking to go beyond the ordinary and light your fire, this class is for you! You will get HOT!

Deep Vinyasa

Deep Vinyasa is a slower sequence that encourages moving inward. Through feeling postures with the eyes closed, we explore the healing connection between mind and body. This is a warm/hot class.

Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a meditative class where postures are held for 5-10 minutes in a warm room. This creates a profound release of the body’s connective tissue—like deep calming bodywork. It’s a wonderful practice for those seeking peace and inner quiet.

Meditation Period

For those who wish to learn to meditate or deepen their current practice. The teacher begins the hour with some simple instructions and may offer more guidance throughout the hour depending on the students’ level of experience. Students should bring their own meditation cushion as props are very limited. This is free class open to the community.

Ashtanga Vinyasa Short-Form

The Short-Form is an adaptation of the Primary Series of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in a hot room. In this class you have time to breath into postures – we often hold them for 5 breaths. This develops an intuitive understanding of how your body can embrace these ancient shapes. This is a great class for first-time students.

Community Yoga

This class open to the community and offered on a donation basis. Classes are taught by our teachers in training. Come support their growth and build your practice!

The class format may change based on the format the trainee is working on, but it will always be a chance to get out of your head, move into your body and find greater balance/wholeness.

Eda Rivers

Since first discovering the free flowing style of hot vinyasa 6 years ago, Eda has barely missed a daily yoga practice. Though she never intended to teach yoga, after completing her 300 hour yoga teacher training with Jason, the knowledge she gained was too good not to share. Yoga has taught her how to be a devoted student of the practice and a teacher with the desire to craft experiences that lead her students on a path towards self acceptance. Eda believes in the power of community and tries to create a sense of belonging, hope, trust, love and freedom for all her students. She’s been a student of HeartYoga since day one and can’t wait to share her love of the studio with you!

To Lejla, yoga is personal. It is a grounding and liberating practice that gives the practitioner an insight to their truest self.

She believes that we all have gifts that can change the world that can be unlocked through yoga.

Being a busy college student and an active creative person on a mission; yoga is how she ties everything together and stays grounded. She is continuously moved and transformed by the benefits her own personal practice and wants to share the same gift with the world.

Niki Adili

Niki began practicing yoga (meditation) when she was 5-6 years old. She didn’t learn about the asana/physical aspect of yoga until later in her 20’s. Over the years, her practice has shifted and evolved. It has not always been consistent. Somehow, yoga in its many forms has always been there to help her to find her way back home.

Yoga means to unite. To Niki, it’s not only about strength or flexibility, but about being able to come back into a state of union with her true self, no matter what life throws her way. Her passion is to share this truth with whoever she can, on and off the mat.

Kate Swazee

Yoga provided the resilience and courage necessary for Kate to shatter the limiting beliefs she held about herself. By exploring the instinctual desire to move freely and making challenge a conscious effort in the practice, yoga took Kate to a new realm of freedom in both body and mind. It’s her desire to get you there too.

Yoga helps Alexia to constantly evolve & flow with life as it comes. This practice has instilled dedication, determination, patience, & confidence in her, and these qualities have only continued to grow as she has started to teach.
