WELCOME

At the Bay Area Yoga Center for Health and Healing, we offer flow based (vinyasa) yoga classes that emphasize proper alignment and safe practice in a friendly and quiet atmosphere. We are rooted in the Ashtanga tradition of yoga which incorporates lifestyle, movement, breath, meditation, self-study, and service.

The yoga practice at Bay Yoga is fantastic for improving strength, endurance and flexibility. Our nationally certified and registered teachers explain and demonstrate each posture. We encourage students to progress at their own pace.

Flow Yoga provides poses that range from gentle to challenging, but are done with stable, self-centering energy. The pace of these classes is slower, and emphasis is placed on correct alignment and proper muscle engagement, while maintaining balance of slow mindful breathing.  Flow yoga is well-suited to all types of students, both the beginner to the advanced.
