Class Descriptions
The ancient tradition of Yoga, which means “to yolk” or “create union”, is both a philosophical system and a science that offers us the opportunity to deepen our self-awareness through physical movement, breathing, and meditation.
The practice of Hatha yoga can lead to physical benefits such as improved cardiovascular functioning, stronger muscles, bones and increased flexibility. The benefits of the mind and soul are endless-the experience of quieting your mind while connecting with your breath leads to a deeper sense of well-being and balance.
BRY primarily offers classes in the Vinyasa, or flowing style of Hatha yoga, which synchronizes movement with breath. Please refer to the class descriptions to find the class that is right for you.
