About Us > Our Yoga Mission & Values

Welcome to the Yoga Co-Op

The Yoga Co-op offers yoga classes in Vinyasa Yoga. Vinyasa or flow yoga is one of the emerging yoga forms of in the West arising from Krishnamacharya's lineage of Ashtanga, Iyengar and Viniyoga. Vinyasa yoga is sequenced to bring balance between ease (sukha) and effort (sthira) while synchronizing the movement with the breath

The sequences of the yoga postures are both physically challenging and spiritually rejuvenating. Each posture, also referred to as an asana, is designed to prepare the body for the one that follows.

The Yoga Co-op classes last for 60-80 minutes in a room heated to approximately 97.8 degrees, which is our body temperature. Practicing yoga in a hot environment opens both the chakras and the muscular/skeletal system, it stimulates the glandular system, and helps eliminate toxins to rebuild the body from old injuries.

With continued Hot Yoga practice, what once seemed purely physical slowly transforms the practitioner towards a metaphysical state of being.

At the Yoga Co-op, our goal is to empower each student to discover the teacher within. We hope that the classes you take at our studio will help you transform your thoughts, actions and body from the inside out.
