Class Descriptions
Gentle Kripalu Yoga
Kripalu Yoga is an ancient practice that revitalizes the body, calms the mind and deepens self-awareness. Kripalu Yoga teaches you to listen to your body and honor its needs, the foundation of every class offered in the studio. Each class has elements of centering, asana (yoga poses), pranayama (yogic breathing), meditation and relaxation.
Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra or Yogic Sleep is a powerful and easy meditation practice. Lying on your back or in any comfortable position you are guided into a deep relaxation between waking and sleeping. In this deep rest state you create an intention for yourself, observe, welcome sensations, emotions and thoughts that arise. This multi-step process is for the integration of body, mind and Spirit. It works with habitual thought patterns, relieving anxiety and anything in the way of being present. It improves awareness, sleep and reduces stress.
Flow Yoga
60 minutes of creative sequencing to strengthen, challenge and inspire your practice. This class will ground you in the moment and rejuvenate your body, mind and Spirit!
Restorative Yoga
Restorative Yoga is a big invitation to let go! This workshop provides all of the support for you to relax and go deeper into your own healing process, mentally, physically and emotionally. Each pose is held for a few mintues with yoga props, bolsters, blankets, straps, cushions, blocks. Everything is provided for you, no experience required! Breathe into your body, nurture your soul, ease your mind in this 90 minute practice.

Create intentional space for yourself
Here at True Nature Yoga we know you crave time for yourself and want to experience deep relaxtion. To get that, you need a peaceful place to go where you can relax.
We know you have people that need you and stuff to get done, which can make you feel guilty if you don’t help. But not giving yourself enough time leads you away from yourself and causes disconnection.
We understand because we’ve completely depleted our energy trying to be perfect and endlessly helping our family, until we found yoga, breathwork and meditation. Once we realized how much easier life was with this practice, we went to school to teach it. With over 13 years of professional yoga training, our practice has helped so many others find their balance.
Here’s how it works;
- Connect with me to book your spot.
- Bring a mat, cushion, blanket and water to your session
- Show up, be yourself and relax.
- Leave with a deeper awareness of your state of mind & body.
So reach out to us and find a class that suits you best, so you can stop putting yourself off and start making time for you again.
No. You can begin a yoga practice from exactly where you are.
Breath is yoga. It is the only requirement.
Wear comfortable layers. Bring a yoga mat, small cushion, water and blanket.
There are modifications to support where you are in a safe practice.
Usually 1 hour, but different practices take longer, like Yoga Nidra which is 1.5 hrs.
