This class incorporates pranayama (conscious breath practice) and meditation, as well as core strength to challenge and encourage students to become aware of their bodies, empowered by their breath, and leave feeling rejuvenated and relaxed.

Bodhi Smile Yoga
This class will blend the styles of vinyasa and hatha yoga. Each morning will begin with silent contemplation and breathing techniques to settle the mind and ground the body. Sun salutations and flowing sequences will warm the muscles, allowing space. Held postures will bring focus to alignment and stability. This class will encourage you to smile at the playful nature of our minds, allowing criticisms and judgments to pass. Within this stillness, our beings can find bliss.

Donation Only Vinyasa Flow Yoga
Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's quote, "Be the change you want to see in the world." and Dr. Paul Farmer's lifelong work as founder of Partners in Health, Denyse's yoga classes in 2010 and 2011 are "Donations Only." Come to as many classes as you want and pay what you can when you can. Each class begins with a meditation, we set an intention and then proceed to warm the body with sun salutations. We commence the flow with standing poses and move onto balance moves, gentle inversions, forward and back bends, and end with supine poses geared toward opening the body while restoring and aligning body,mind, and spirit.

Iyengar Influenced Yoga
Inyengar yoga focuses on alignment and precision in the poses. BKS Iyengar believes that the body is the doorway into the soul. Through absolute attention to the small actions in the body, one's mind is more easily cleared and the student becomes very present. This is a dynamic class moving through the full range of asanas; we commence with a flow of standing postures, often move through backbends/twists/forward bends, and do inversions. While the class is very active, it is also suitable for beginners willing to challenge themselves because the Iyengar method is very instructive on teaching proper alignment in all the asanas and presenting variations of poses that every body type can achieve.
