Why Power Yoga?
The Baptiste Power Vinyasa style of yoga is a sequence of postures or asanas, linking breath and movement. We flow through the series in a 95 degree room to promote release of toxins and to provide fluidity and flexibility in the muscles and allow for space in clarity, concentration and precision. This practice is not about “perfectionism”, but proper alignment to find freedom in your practice.

What Do I Need To Bring?AN OPEN MIND & AN OPEN HEART is all you need to start. All classes are open to ALL LEVELS. Check the schedule for the time that’s right for you and take the first step in moving your life to a new place of discovery. IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
The doors are open 30 minutes prior to the start of class and are locked once class begins – please respect other students & teachers and arrive on time. Please bring mat, strap, block, towel and water. We do not have rentals. We offer yoga mats, towels & straps for purchase from Jade Yoga. *Due to heat and health concerns, anyone who is visibly under the influence of alcohol or drugs will not be permitted to practice* |
