Hatha focuses on the alignment and gentle movement to find a foothold on each posture individually. Suitable for beginners and advanced students. This style of yoga is very classical, the way many practice in India, Nepal and Tibet. Hatha yoga is a full rounded class which could bring light on yogic philosophy, spiritual practice, breathing practices (Pranayama), relaxation and meditation practice. At Yoga Wisdom we allow freedom to express our inner worlds, thus each teacher has their own style of practice and teaching based on previous experience and background. At times the poses can be held and at others, a more advanced flow from pose to pose. Enjoy the diversity and benefits of many worlds.  

Ashtanga yoga is a strong disciplined practice of the same sequence. It requires strength of mind and body. In this class, we venture into the first sequence of Ashtanga. It is fun and challenging. Great for athletes and very energetic people. Also great for building strength and flexibility. A practice of deep awareness into the habitual patterns holding one back from moving with freedom and joy. For those who have done ashtanga classes, Jeanette teaches it with her style of giving her own personal experiential knowledge and tips. Including different asanas and props when needed to experience a different feel to understand the physics and dynamics of a pose. Beginners class held on Thursday, more advanced practice available on Tuesday.

In this class and style of yoga, Jeanette allows the exploration of the ancient practices that are used to awaken the energy system and works from inside out. The physical asanas are utilized in a different way, instead of flowing or holding the poses as in the Hatha Yoga or Ashtanga, the poses are repeated for a time. Thus making it extremely accessible for beginners on a physical level, and mentally engaging for the more adept student. This practice uses the arcane techniques for upliftment and transformation towards union of mind, body and soul. Jeanette’s style is unique and allows you further exploration of your own body and experience. Sometimes the best way to understand it, is to experience it!
