Mindfulness Meditation

Mindfulness Meditation is a supportive, no-pressure class where you’ll feel calmer, more centered, and less stressed. In the studio or taking class online you choose to either sit in a chair or on a yoga mat. We feel our nervous system unwind to specifically chosen gentle music, while the teacher, Glenn, guides you through beautiful and meaningful visualizations and uplifting readings. Everyone finds expert guidance for how to release tension, with emphasis on ancient meditation breathing techniques and how to let go of today’s racing thoughts. You’ll feel safe and accepted and each class builds skills for daily use.

Hatha Anusara Yoga

Hatha Anusara Yoga is the combination of Hatha and Anusara yoga. It’s a gentle to moderate class focused on physical postures combined with breath awareness, and ending in relaxation. The class agenda includes a gentle warm-up, series of standing, seated, supine/reclined, and sometimes twisting or balancing poses, modifications for all levels, making it beginner-friendly yet still challenging. The class ends with a short period of relaxation (savasana) and/or short meditation.

The incorporation of Hatha with Anusara are the three pillars: a life-affirming philosophy, Universal Principles of Alignment (five principles guiding optimal physical and energetic actions), and a supportive community (Kula).

Its Key Benefits are,

Improved Alignment and Posture: Enhances body awareness and biomechanics, reducing injury risk and promoting graceful movement.

Increased Strength and Flexibility: Builds physical resilience through mindful poses, supporting overall vitality.
Emotional and Mental Well-Being: Reduces stress, clears the mind, and fosters compassion, leading to greater emotional balance and self-acceptance.
Enhanced Energy Flow: Boosts prana (life force), invigorating the body and spirit for deeper mind-body connection.

Spiritual Growth: Encourages heart-opening and intrinsic joy, transforming daily life into a practice of empowerment and community.

Vinyasa

Vinyasa is a fun workout for students who are knowledgeable about proper form in poses. With lively music playing, everyone follows the teacher who is flowing from one pose to another in an intelligent sequence. In FHYS well-sequenced vinyasa sessions, each posture prepares you for the next. An overview of Vinyasa is synchronization of breath to movement, there is a continuous flow of a variety of poses, and it can be as physically challenging as you want.

ParaYoga Nidra

ParaYoga Nidra allows you to experience the depth of who you are and the vastness of possibilities that are innately yours. What it takes is deep relaxation to access these possibilities. This is an ancient yogic science of enlightened sleep. It’s a method for maximizing health, stress, and well-being, and is one of the most profound and accessible ways to positively reshape the unconscious mind.

Each class begins with centering. You will learn a short sequence of movements that are very effective for relieving tension in the joints and moving energy in your glands to help you function optimally. It also releases tension in your entire body so that you can rest more deeply.

You will also learn a breathing technique to help calm your mind, and then you’ll lie down in the privacy of your own home and be guided through this practice.

Somatic / Yin / Restorative Yoga

Somatic Yoga is the practice of rekindling neural pathways by dissolving the hard
edges of enduring aches, pains, and rigidity into a state of ease, contentment and
renewal. Somatic Yoga is a gentle, mindful practice that focuses on slow, conscious
movements and internal awareness rather than pushing into poses or achieving a
“perfect” shape. You explore gentle gliding, flossing, moving patterns that help your
nervous system relax, release long-held tension, and reconnect with your body’s
natural intelligence. You will leave class feeling more calm and deeply relaxed.

Yin Yoga focuses on careful and thoughtful stretching of the connective tissues (like
fascia and ligaments) rather than building muscle strength, so it feels more restful than
active. You will leave class feeling calmer, more open, and deeply relaxed—perfect if
you want to ease stress, improve flexibility, or simply unwind.

Restorative Yoga is a deeply relaxing practice where you rest in gentle, fully supported
poses (sometimes using blankets, bolsters, and belts) for 5–20 minutes at a time.
The focus is on complete comfort and letting your body and nervous system
unwind—no effort, no stretching, just passive release and deep rest.
You will leave class feeling calm, refreshed, and emotionally balanced—ideal if you’re
feeling stressed, tired, anxious, or just want to recharge without any physical strain.
