Class Descriptions
At Yellow Brick Yoga we offer hands on assists in the physical poses during class. You provide consent for the assists before and during every class.
Power Flow
Power Flow is a 60 minute power vinyasa class that utilizes the Baptiste Journey into Power sequence as a blueprint to create a challenging and fun class. The room is heated to 95F. This sequence can be adapted to suit any body, so come ready to sweat and connect! Class ends with a lavender infused towel in Savasana.
Restorative Yoga
Restorative Yoga is a 60 minute class that utilizes props, blocks and blankets to encourage long holds and deep relaxation within gentle yoga postures. Restorative yoga stimulates the parasymphatic nervous system, which slows the heart rate, regulates the blood pressure and relaxes the body. This class is not heated. Props are provided!
Slow Flow
Slow Flow is a 75 minute power vinyasa class that moves slower to accommodate more breath work and longer holds. Explore more adaptations and learn the fundamentals of vinyasa yoga in this heated class (95F.) This class also includes either meditation or inquiry work and ends with a lavender infused towel in Savasana.
Peak Pose
A one hour heated vinyasa yoga class that builds progressively to achieve a peak pose with time spent on discussing our relationship to the peak pose. Each week features a different peak pose, and modifications are given for each student to work from where they're at in building the pose. Some experience with vinyasa style yoga is preferred but not required- this class will move fast and has a workshop feel. The studio is heated to 95F.
Journey Into Power
A 90 minute heated power vinyasa yoga class inspired by Baron Baptiste's Journey Into Power sequence. This class is the full, uncut sequence and focuses on True North Alignment as a cornerstone of self-discovery. Be ready to sweat and flow in grace as we move through this sequence that ends in Deep Rest, Savasana. No experience is required; this class is accessible to all levels and the poses can be modified to work for anyone.
Midday Myofascial Yin
In this class, you'll enjoy a combination of extended yin poses, soothing self-massage with massage balls, gentle movements, and focused breathwork- all designed to relieve muscle and fascia tension. Whether you've just finished a tough workout or need a midday break, this class offers the perfect opportunity for recovery and relaxation.
Community Yoga
At YBY we seek to make the practice of Yoga as accessible as possible. Community Yoga is a one hour donation-based yoga class featuring a rotation of instructors ready to share from their lineage and truth. This class is mildly heated (usually low 80's) and moves slower, so it's great for beginners and all practitioners. This class is FREE if you need it to be.
Yin Yoga/Happy Hour Yin Yoga
This class is a relaxing, yet mentally challenging approach to yoga that is appropriate for any age or ability. You’ll enjoy this time of self-care to melt away stress and cultivate stamina which balances the more demanding aspects of your life. Many poses are held on the ground, which allows gravity and time to work with you. The magic of yin is held in the stillness of the pose where you find the appropriate edge to play in order to gently stress the connective tissue and move through the layers of your experience. This practice encourages mindfulness with intentional time to explore the nature of your thoughts and how you manage difficult situations. Taking care of your physical and mental wellness is top priority, so Friday's class ends with a shot of Morning Light kombucha or other local non-alcoholic brews to start your weekend off right!
Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra—known as yogic sleep—is a meditation and conscious relaxation practice that is intended to induce total physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. This class is 45 minutes long and involves lying down comfortably and being guided into a deep, active meditation. As we move from the dense to the subtle layers of existence, a bliss like state is achieved. Yoga Nidra is wonderful for expanding self-awareness and deep relaxation. It can also help alleviate insomnia and reduce fatigue. This class is not heated.
We use external heat as a tool for transformation. The challenge of putting your body into a pose in a 95-degree room creates an environment for transformation. Inside this challenge, you learn to focus on breath, drishti and on staying in the moment of physical challenge. When life turns up the heat, yoga teaches us to focus and stay calm.
Our heat is provided by infrared radiant heat panels. The panels radiate sun-like warmth to indoor spaces rather than heating the air. The panels are healthier than traditional forms of heat as they don't blow dust or allergens. The heat is safe, clean, low cost energy that is friendly to people and the environment.
