Your breath will guide you to a state of mental calm in the midst of this powerfully energetic experience.

YogaSix Des Peres 12360 Manchester Rd #206 St. Louis, MO 63131 United States 314-821-1878 Vinyasa is a style of yoga characterized by stringing postures together so that you move from one to another, seamlessly, linking them with your breath. Vinyasa classes offer a variety of postures and no two classes are ever alike. My style is to take you through a variation of Sun A & Sun B to warm up the spine and then the hips. Then we learn a flow in chunks and put it all together for that dance with breath. We then move into core work and cool down, finally landing in that magical end pose - savasana. You are encouraged to share any specific body part you might need to address in your practice in that moment. I do my best to honor requests and tailor portions of class for you. Due to Covid regulations in St. Louis County, class is limited to 12 mats in the large room at YogaSix Des Peres. You will need to bring your own mat and props, and hands on assists are not offered at this time. We mask up from door to mat, and if you are comfortable practicing without a mask you are welcome to do so. I will stay on my mat and guide from the front of the room. The room has a mirrored wall at the front.

YogaSix Des Peres 12360 Manchester Rd #206 St. Louis, MO 63131 United States 314-821-1878 Deep Stretch / Restore is an active stretching class that targets primary muscle groups surrounding the hips, hamstrings and upper back. Living in a forward facing, seated world, these areas tend to be tight for everyone. Tight muscles can cause imbalance and pull the body out of alignment. This class begins with warm-up movements to build heat and prepare the muscles for stretching. MANY poses are done on the floor and held for 1-2 minutes. Holding poses for longer periods of time and focusing on breath gives the body time to fully relax and open. Deep Stretch / Restore is an accessible class that everyone needs – athletes, advanced practitioners, weekend warriors, first time yoga students and everyone in between. Focused stretching allows muscles to relax and lengthen, which puts less strain on the skeletal system and reduces tension throughout the body. Students who take this class regularly report fewer injuries and improved sleep. Restore is a great class for first time yoga students. Neither experience nor flexibility are required, just an open mind and a willingness to have fun while trying something new. We are once again using props and I invite students to take 2 blocks, a strap and at least one bolster each class. We use all props for supporting the intention of the class - to leave feeling restored. Find your way to this class for restoring your body and mind with soothing shapes and gentle movements intended for recovery and rest.

Climb So iLL Steel Shop 650 N Main Center Suite 105 St. Charles, MO 63301 USA Athletes recognize how paramount fluid breathwork is to supporting a relaxed body and mind when performing at a physical limit. Climbers specifically. So, we begin each class focusing on our breath and slowing it into deep diaphragmatic breathing. Once connecting to this centering, stress-relieving ingredient, we begin moving energy though our bodies with a vinyasa flow, core work and stretching exercises, that will build strength for the cruxes of our chosen sport. Complementing your athletic endeavors with a regular yoga practice, you can benefit from improved stamina, flexibility, agility and centering. In addition, yoga enhances proprioception, a vital ingredient in all sports. This class will be tailored to athletes and specifically climbers, so we can all stay in tip top mental and physical shape through this "re-entry" timeframe.

Life Time Frontenac 2051 South Lindbergh Blvd Frontenac, MO 63131 Learn to Let GoThis slow, meditative yin-yoga practice is designed to mindfully stress your body’s connective tissues as you breathe into the ever-changing sensations that arise in long-held poses. What to ExpectYou’ll be guided through a series of passive postures, mostly done on the floor. Poses are held for up to several minutes, allowing fascia and joints to gradually compress or release. This class is suitable for all experience levels; you’ll learn to utilize your breath and observe your natural tendencies when faced with discomfort. Why it WorksPhysically, long-held yoga poses mobilize and lubricate the joints and can help make these tissues more flexible. Mentally, these poses challenge you to meet arising resistance with mindfulness and self-compassion, teaching you to find the middle ground between craving and aversion. 12:15 pm: ROOT Yoga - SAT 12:1501/01/2022 –

YogaSix Des Peres 12360 Manchester Rd #206 St. Louis, MO 63131 United States 314-821-1878 Vinyasa is a style of yoga characterized by stringing postures together so that you move from one to another, seamlessly, linking them with your breath. Vinyasa classes offer a variety of postures and no two classes are ever alike. My style is to take you through a variation of Sun A & Sun B to warm up the spine and then the hips. Then we learn a flow in chunks and put it all together for that dance with breath. We then move into core work and cool down, finally landing in that magical end pose - savasana. You are encouraged to share any specific body part you might need to address in your practice in that moment. I do my best to honor requests and tailor portions of class for you. Due to Covid regulations in St. Louis County, class is limited to 12 mats in the large room at YogaSix Des Peres. You will need to bring your own mat and props, and hands on assists are not offered at this time. We mask up from door to mat, and if you are comfortable practicing without a mask you are welcome to do so. I will stay on my mat and guide from the front of the room. The room has a mirrored wall at the front.

YogaSix Des Peres 12360 Manchester Rd #206 St. Louis, MO 63131 United States 314-821-1878 Deep Stretch / Restore is an active stretching class that targets primary muscle groups surrounding the hips, hamstrings and upper back. Living in a forward facing, seated world, these areas tend to be tight for everyone. Tight muscles can cause imbalance and pull the body out of alignment. This class begins with warm-up movements to build heat and prepare the muscles for stretching. MANY poses are done on the floor and held for 1-2 minutes. Holding poses for longer periods of time and focusing on breath gives the body time to fully relax and open. Deep Stretch / Restore is an accessible class that everyone needs – athletes, advanced practitioners, weekend warriors, first time yoga students and everyone in between. Focused stretching allows muscles to relax and lengthen, which puts less strain on the skeletal system and reduces tension throughout the body. Students who take this class regularly report fewer injuries and improved sleep. Restore is a great class for first time yoga students. Neither experience nor flexibility are required, just an open mind and a willingness to have fun while trying something new. We are once again using props and I invite students to take 2 blocks, a strap and at least one bolster each class. We use all props for supporting the intention of the class - to leave feeling restored. Find your way to this class for restoring your body and mind with soothing shapes and gentle movements intended for recovery and rest.

Climbers specifically. So, we begin each class focusing on our breath and slowing it into deep diaphragmatic breathing. Once connecting to this centering, stress-relieving ingredient, we begin moving energy though our bodies with a vinyasa flow, core work and stretching exercises, that will build strength for the cruxes of our chosen sport. Complementing your athletic endeavors with a regular yoga practice, you can benefit from improved stamina, flexibility, agility and centering. In addition, yoga enhances proprioception, a vital ingredient in all sports. This class will be tailored to athletes and specifically climbers, so we can all stay in tip top mental and physical shape through this "re-entry" timeframe.

10:30 am: SURRENDER - Yin Yoga02/05/2022 –
Life Time Frontenac 2051 South Lindbergh Blvd Frontenac, MO 63131 Learn to Let GoThis slow, meditative yin-yoga practice is designed to mindfully stress your body’s connective tissues as you breathe into the ever-changing sensations that arise in long-held poses. What to ExpectYou’ll be guided through a series of passive postures, mostly done on the floor. Poses are held for up to several minutes, allowing fascia and joints to gradually compress or release. This class is suitable for all experience levels; you’ll learn to utilize your breath and observe your natural tendencies when faced with discomfort. Why it WorksPhysically, long-held yoga poses mobilize and lubricate the joints and can help make these tissues more flexible. Mentally, these poses challenge you to meet arising resistance with mindfulness and self-compassion, teaching you to find the middle ground between craving and aversion. 12:15 pm: ROOT Yoga - SAT 12:1502/05/2022 –
Life Time Frontenac 2051 South Lindbergh Blvd Frontenac, MO 63131 ROOT Fundamentals is a signature yoga class of LifePower Yoga at Life Time Frontenac. ROOT's intention - providing a welcoming entry point to LifePower Yoga. It is designed for students new to yoga, students dealing with physical limitations or injuries, and experienced students who are looking to slow their practice down. This class has a therapeutic quality to it by allowing students to feel more, look inward and heal deeply. This is held in the large studio at Life Time and has become a family of students who are committed to rewarding their physical, mental and emotional beings with 60 minutes dedicated on each Saturday to their well being. If you are new or not, this class has something for you. I guide it with loving care and intend for each student to find moments of deep connection to themselves and to discover new curiosity and wonder every week.
