  • Yoga for a Healthy Spine

    Mondays | 8:30 - 9:30 AM PT | Sellwood Yoga

    Focusing on practicing postures in a way that enhances the health of the back and spine, you will learn to relieve tension in the back body, from the neck to the sacrum, and strengthen your core to support proper alignment of your spine, especially to support your lower back. This class is suited for those new to yoga, seasoned yoga students, yoga instructors and those who have never practiced yoga before but are curious. In this class we explore movements specific to areas of the spine using detailed cues, strength and mobility work, and day to day function, to create a healthy yoga practice and ultimately, a healthy spine.

  • Vinyasa Flow

    Wednesdays | 6:00 - 7:00 PM PT | Sellwood Yoga

    An ever-evolving and creative form of yoga, Vinyasa Flow classes integrate breath and movement, awareness and alignment. Vinyasa is a logical arrangement and placement of asana (postures) where the intelligence is guided from within. Each class is unique and influenced primarily from Hatha yoga traditions, as well as other healing and expressive arts. Sun Salutations, standing poses, floor work, balancing, strengthening and lengthening are practiced in every class with an option to explore inversions if desired. Kari’s approach is from a healthy spine slant, the desire to build strength to enhance flexibility, balance work to keep us upright as we age, and play with different approaches to how you enter and exit poses. Oh, and we laugh a lot!
