Half Gentle Yoga, Half Restorative Yoga
This class is the best of both worlds! Enjoy the benefits of a flowing movement based practice, followed by the deep meditative healing rest of a restorative practice. All in 75 minutes!
Wednesdays 7:30pm
The first half of the class will get the body warm, stretch out the muscles and move all the major joints in medicinal ways. The second half will utilize all of our props (bolsters, blocks, straps, blankets and eye pillows) to create a beautiful restorative practice. This slower paced in nature creates space for attuning to your body’s inner wisdom, promoting relaxation and inner balance.
Ally's gentle flow class is a major hit with the community here at Sarovara Yoga, yet her restorative classes sooth the entire mind, body & soul. This combination of 'yang' and 'yin' practices create an incredibly balancing experience.
This class will both benefit and lengthen the muscles in the body and then invite you to melt into the support of props as Ally guides a meditative state to rejuvenate and heal the entire central nervous system. You do not want to miss this class!!
Are you ready to feel balanced and restored?

More About Gentle & Restorative Yoga
The First Half: Everyone one loves a gentle yoga class. Warming movements to lubricate the joints and stretch out all of the muscles. A beautiful meditation in motion.
The Second Half: A restorative yoga sequence involves only 3-5 poses that are experienced for 5-8 minutes each, supported by props that allow you to completely relax and rest. With as little effort as possible, the bolsters, blocks, blankets and pillows support you in light twists, seated forward folds, gentle backbends and more.
