These are multi-level hatha yoga classes where variations are provided for beginner to low-intermediate/intermediate levels of yoga practice. You have a basic to moderate level of general fitness but some previous yoga experience needed.


- Hatha Yoga: General/multi-level yoga practice including breath and asana instruction. Variations are given for each posture, allowing you to find your own best practice.

- Anusara Inspired: This method of hatha yoga integrates biomechanical principles of alignment while honoring the deep connection of body, mind and spirit.  Developed by John Friend in 1996, Anusara Yoga® offers a dynamic synthesis of asana technique, yoga philosophy, and the celebration of life.  Students are encouraged to work at their own level honouring their own uniqueness and strengths.

-Tone Your Core: Hatha yoga class with a focus on strengthening the core: abs, back and pelvic floor.

-Purna Yoga: Purna Yoga is another style of hatha yoga practice. Purna Yoga incorporates alignment-based asana, heart-centered meditation and healthy living practices to help individuals achieve wholeness, healing and the fulfillment of life’s purpose. Classes start with a brief centering to focus the mind and open the heart. A gentle warm-up loosens your body and gets your heart rate going. Each class is customized to fit the needs of the students in the room, and
includes poses that build strength and flexibility and work the heart and lungs.Each class has a special theme and a chance to refine your movement. During class, the focus is on feeling the effects of the exercises in the body, rather than trying to force yourself into a perfect pose. Then, after having actively engaged your body, you enjoy deep relaxation and a centering.

-Karma Yoga: This is a multi-level hatha yoga class held every Friday evening from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. and costs only $5.00. Teachers donate their time and donations support Heart Centre Yoga's "yoga scholarship fund" which supplements successful scholarship applicants with lower priced yoga classes.

-Yoga for Teens: This class is for girls and guys ages 13 - 17 and is specifically designed to support the developing body and mind through yoga practice. Our teacher specializes in teaching to teens. A great way to meet other teens and have peer support while exploring yoga!
