Yoga Joins Pole Sessions

There are 2 different types of yoga available with ira yoga.

Core Energy Vinyasa is a dynamic class suitable for “strong beginners”. You don’t need to have any previous experience in yoga, but it helps if you are somewhat physically active (don’t worry, you don’t need to be an athlete or a “super-yogi”!). The class builds strength and flexibility and will offer variations to some postures. The class focuses on moving from the core, keeping the body flexible while supported. Great class for anyone who wishes to strengthen their body while moving in a meditative flow. If you are up for surprises, challenges and having fun, this class is for you!

Flow & Stretch Yoga is a deep stretching class, which combines yin yoga, PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) and Meridian yoga. The main focus of the class is in gaining more flexibility while relaxing the mind. The first part of the class focuses on the flow; warm-up (spine, hips), core connection. The second part goes deeper into the stretch. Most poses are held for 3-4 minutes targeting the connective tissues, such as the ligaments, joints and bones, that are not normally excercised very much in the more active style of yoga (Vinyasa). PNF helps by training the nervous system to relax. Most poses also stretch the meridians in the body, helping prana (“chi” in Chinese medicine) flow through the body. The major meridian correspond to specific human organs.
