prana flow

An innovative and dynamic approach to vinyasa yoga, Prana Flow classes offer a rhythmic practice, complex sequencing, fluid mandalas and “sahaja” which means spontaneous or free movement. Instructors emphasize slow, deep breathing and deliberate movement that are dynamic in nature yet practiced in a calm manner. Prana Flow incorporates intermediate and advanced arm balances, backbends, pranayama and bandha practice. Classes have a circular 360 degrees orientation on the mat in contrast to the traditional plane of moving only forward and back on the mat. Instructors encourage an intuitive approach to asanas while a foundation in understanding proper alignment is already expected in your yoga practice.

Created by Shiva Rea, Prana Flow classes are embodying the flow of prana – the universal source of breath, life energy and conscious intelligence as the navigating source for vital living. Prana Flow is an exciting approach for intermediate to advanced students who enjoy playing with cutting edge elements of their practice and innovative fusion of creative movement. Not suited for beginners with no experience or individuals with injuries.  Be prepared to sweat, breathe, practice to world beat music and be ready for the class to frequently break out in joyous dance and free form movement and kriyas.
