Flow and Release - Vinyasa Flow / Yin Yoga

Earth Element | Warm 80-85

Class Length - 75 min

If you are looking for the perfect combination of classes, this is your answer. This vinyasa to yin class meshes the invigoration of an intentional vinyasa flow and the mindful quiet floor practice of yin. Students are led through poses linking breath with movement to warm the body before embracing a sense of calm and stillness where the focus becomes the lengthening of the connective tissues. At OM8 this class is where SPARK or RIPPLE meets GROUND. Blending these two creates a powerful class we like to call MELT, because that is exactly how it feels.

Strength, Core & Sculpt…with slow flow yoga fusion

Water Element |  Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

FUSION at OM8 is a dynamic mix of yoga and pilates, designed to harness the best of both practices. This hybrid class combines the flexibility, balance and mindfulness of yoga with the core-strengthening, body-toning elements of traditional mat Pilates. With a focus on core, glutes and stability muscle groups, this class offers controlled movements, proper alignment and a strong mind-body-breath connection. FUSION is the perfect fun new approach to increase flexibility, build strength and create a strong foundation. Slow flow in a comprehensive experience that nurtures both the body and mind.

Slow Flow Yoga

Water Element | Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

Like a ripple in the water this slow flow class has a meditative pace that links movement with breath at a much slower speed. Deep, mindful sequences help focus and relax you as you hold and sink into the alignment of each pose. Because of the slower pace, poses are more accessible and it is a great class for beginners. But slower doesn't mean less challenging.  Learning to find your breath in longer holds provides an opportunity to increase the mind body connection. Additional benefits include building strength, flexibility and balance. Expect to feel a wave of calm and rejuvenation that is created in this class.

Slow Flow Somatic Yoga

Water Element | Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

Our somatic movement practice emphasizes the internal experience of the body through a movement therapy that emphasizes re-educating the way your brain controls your muscles. It involves slow mindful, conscious movement aimed at increasing body awareness, improving flexibility and relieving emotional and physical tension. By focusing on how the body feels from the inside, rather than how it looks or performs externally, somatic movement encourages a deeper connection between the mind and body. This healing modality can be particularly beneficial for managing stress, enhancing well-being and recovering from physical injuries.

The benefits of this class are a heightened sense of relaxation, a release of trapped emotions that are effecting the body physically and an overall improvement in mobility, as we learn to move with greater ease and efficiency.

Movement and stillness to relax and recover. Join us for this practice featuring modalities specifically targeted to recover and embrace positivity. This class will be led by varying teachers and all of their magic to allow for recovery both mentally and physically!

Yin Yoga - Flexibility & Release

Earth Element |  Warm 80-85

Class Length - 60 min

If you are looking for a grounded vibe where you can relax into longer holds and stretch, GROUND is the class you need. With the perfect balance of stillness, slow speed and intentionality, the goal of this grounded yin class is to target the deep connective tissues of the body – the ligaments, joints and deep fascia network.

Creating space to quiet the mind and heal, students experience balance in the nervous system with poses practiced on the floor.  Through long supported holds, this class can help with flexibility, circulation, muscle recovery and is therapeutic for joints and mobility. The perfect compliment to a yang physical practice and the stresses of life,  yin yoga can promote feelings of deep calm.

Props such as bolsters, blocks and blankets are available and provided. Feel free to bring your own as well!
