Iyengar Yoga, named after B.K.S. Iyengar, is a style of Hatha yoga that involves detailed instruction and sequencing to emphasize alignment and precision of poses, and to achieve balance, flexibility, strength, and stamina. The use of props by a skillful teacher makes poses accessible for everybody to practice them correctly and safely.
Level I is perfect for beginners and for students wanting to explore the fundamentals of Iyengar Yoga. The class will cover basic standing, seated, twisted, & back bending poses and beginner inversions (including shoulder stand) at a methodical, unhurried pace, using the props as needed. It is a practice that is welcoming and accessible to everybody.
Rebecca’s classes are offered by set session blocks. Contact her to join a class: rsimmonsyoga@gmail.com
New Class!
Yoga and the 12 Steps of Recovery
Sunday, 9AM
This class integrates the principles of addiction recovery and the practice of yoga therapy as a way of life and as a relapse prevention program. By combining the principles and practices of yoga into the twelve steps of recovery, yoga becomes a roadmap for guiding the mind to inhabit the body. Each Sunday we will immerse ourselves utilizing readings, intentions/principles, affirmations/mantras, pranayama/breath awareness, somatic asana embodiment, meditation, and step practice.
We cover one step each week for twelve weeks. Suggested donation is $12-$15 per class. As always in recovery, feel free to come for free anytime. Each and every class stands alone, yet we are never alone! The only requirement is the desire to change!

Yin is a slow-paced and therapeutic style of yoga that uses a specific series of floor poses held for a length of time to provide a “deep tissue massage” for the body that also calms and balances mind, body, and soul. From this class, you will also see these benefits:
- Improves flow of prana (energy) to the vital organs and the entire body
- Releases fascia, therefore improving joint mobility and enhancing range
- of motion
- Increases circulation and helps alleviate pain, stiffness, and tension
- Less stress and anxiety and a deeper connection to self
- A “workout” for your connective tissue, lubricating and lengthening tendons, ligaments, and fascia that don’t respond to more active forms of yoga or other exercises (yang)
