(CANCELED) *Flow & Yin

Flow & Yin is a sweet blend of flow and yin. About half of class uses a breath-based vinyasa flow to build strength and flexibility, challenging your balance and concentration, and harnessing that energy to promote inner stillness and peace. The other half of class finds you down on the mat holding yin poses for longer periods of time, targeting the connective tissues of the body to help release deeply stored tension. Amy’s classes incorporate a creative flow threaded with breath, mudras, meditation, mantra and a passion for music. She is known for her clear, resonant voice and precise cuing.
