Instructor: Monica Gullickson

Starting April 13, this class will be held in Suite 3D from 6-7:15pm. See the updated event.

The Active Series was developed by Sharath Jois and derived from a traditional Ashtanga Yoga practice. It retains all the benefits of the traditional method keeping the linking of movement with breath but includes new more accessible postures for a wider range of students in a modern age and setting. Students from all levels will be able to participate in a non-intimidating inclusive setting. Classes are open to all.

This class is also offered Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 5:30-6:45 pm.
