Class Descriptions
Align & Flow
In this open level class students will move between exploring a specific body part or Asana pose in depth, and flowing with breath. You will receive comprehensive asana instruction that gives detailed attention to alignment, sometimes preparing for a peak pose, and also have an opportunity to move through a breath-centered flow, transitioning from pose to pose. Throughout class we will explore the poses with playful curiosity, while looking to find a balance between effort and ease. All levels welcomed. Modifications will be offered to fit your practice level and to help you safely manage any injuries you may have.
Pre & Postnatal
Our Pre & Postnatal class is a unique practice that welcomes folks at any stage of their pregnancy or postpartum period. We offer options that are safe and effective both for preparing the body for birth and restoring and nourishing both body and mind after. Poses will help strengthen core muscles, tone the back and pelvic floor, and release shoulder and chest tension will be incorporated throughout the class, as well as evidence-based mindfulness techniques to manage and reduce stress. For those who are pregnant, teachers will include movements designed to alleviate the discomforts of pregnancy (such as swollen feet, back pain, and varicose veins) and to strengthen the muscles and organs needed for labor and delivery. Dialog is encouraged so that participants can connect and offer support to one another; sharing wisdom about the process of pregnancy and birth, as well as the physical and emotional joys and challenges of being a new parent.
Basics
Basics class offers new beginners a perfect place to try out Yoga in a warm and welcoming space, and gives long-term practitioners a chance to get back to basics and deepen their practice. Poses are explained in detail, and students are given time to find comfort and ease in each posture. The body will be stretched in all directions, and strengthened mindfully. Each class will include heat-building sun salutations, balancing, backbends, forward bends, twists, and optional inversions. Classes may also include basic breathing practices, chanting, and meditation. Each class ends with a deeply relaxing Yoga Nidra (guided deep relaxation).
Belly Dancing
In this Joyful and engaging class students will learn basic belly dancing moves in several different traditions (Egyption, Turkish, to name a few) including, learning isolations, hip, shoulder, and upper body movements, shimmies and undulations, foot patterns, and some traveling steps. Perfect for beginners and more experienced dancers. Pregnant practitioners welcomed!
Chair Yoga
In this 45 minute donation-based Zoom class, we will use a chair for seated poses as well as for support in standing and other postures, allowing for various ranges of motion and abilities. We will do a mix of seated and standing poses, twists, hip opening, forward folds, backbends, and balancing poses. This class is appropriate for people who have difficulty getting up and down from the floor, people with arthritis or other conditions that make mainstream yoga classes difficult or painful, older adults, people recovering from an injury, and/or anyone interested in chair/desk yoga you can do during the workday!
Community Classes
To continually foster connection among HYS Yogis, and ensure that classes remain accessible to everyone, our Community Classes allow students to pay a suggested donation of either $5 or $10 (whichever works best for the practitioner). Classes are taught at the same high level of excellent instruction as our full-priced offerings.
Community Meditation
In this 30-minute class students will be guided in a basic mindfulness meditation. Participants will receive instruction on posture, as well as how to use the breath as the object of mindfulness. All levels from beginning and curious students to those with an established mediation practice are welcome. Students will receive support in developing and maintaining a regular mindfulness practice in a warm and uplifted setting.
Family & Me
Yoga for the whole family! Adult and Child (Toddlers and Up) learn and play Yoga together, using games, discussion, music, and more. Children learn the basics of Yoga, both the physical movements, and the mental practice of focusing and calming the mind, while adults get to stretch, strengthen, and play with their little Yogis.
HIIT
In this fast paced, efficient, and breath centered High Intensity Interval Training Class we will use our bodies and a variety of easily attainable props (small weights or soup cans, blocks or books, etc.) to build our aerobic capacity and strength, while ensuring our form always supports the function of movement. We will utilize weights to increase strength and keep our heart rate going by mixing high intensity movement with recovery periods in order to improve both our aerobic and anaerobic fitness! This class is creative, fun, and open to all levels.
Hot Vinyasa
Same awesome experience as our Open Level classes with the heat set to a fun 90 degrees and using our collective bodies movement and breathing to raise internal temperatures. Depending on the time of the year expect the room to be 80-100 degrees. All levels are welcome! Please bring your own water bottle and towel. The studio provides a free purified water fountain.
Katonah Yoga
Katonah Yoga incorporates classical Hatha yoga with Taoist theory, sacred geometry, magic, mythology, metaphor and imagination in a practical framework designed to potentiate personal and communal well-being. This is a challenging class, designed to help you organize yourself within your world, center yourself within your circumstances, and learn to mediate yourself between your polarities. (To learn more please visit www.katonahyoga.com.)
Mat Pilates
Designed to build core strength and lengthen and define muscles throughout the body, this Open Level Pilates Mat class draws from traditional Pilates as well as various other strengthening modalities to provide a total body workout driven by core engagement. Pilates classes help to improve strength, coordination, and joint stability, and are vigorous while remaining highly focused on correct alignment. With consistent practice students will develop greater strength and definition in their core muscles. Various props such as blocks, bands, light weights, and balls will be used to creatively access and tone muscles that are often overlooked. All levels welcomed.
Open Level
A balance of comprehensive asana instruction with a creative and accessible flow, allowing for an emphasis on the breath. Classes includes a mix of sun salutations and standing poses, as well as a backbends, forward bends, balances, and twists. Modifications are provided for students to tailor the class to their needs and level. Practices will vary in terms of a peak pose, theme or area of anatomy that we are focused on in a particular week. Each class includes a brief centering and a guided deep relaxation to seal in the benefits of asana practice. All levels welcomed.
Prenatal
Meet other future Moms and feel more comfortable and confident during your pregnancy. This class teaches movements and yoga poses to strengthen and tone the muscles and organs needed for labor and delivery and to alleviate common discomforts such as swelling, back pain, constipation and varicose veins. An emphasis is placed on soothing, relaxing breath work and meditation, giving you space to connect deeply with your innate wisdom to nurture your baby and to enjoy the miraculous process of pregnancy and birth. Our goal is to make you feel welcome, well cared for, calm, and confident with each class. Prenatal classes are for all stages of pregnancy. No previous yoga experience necessary.

Private Sessions
Receive one-on-one individual attention to deepen your practice, learn about injury management, focus on a pose, and have all the hands-on adjustments and attention just for you! Offered at your home, work or the studio. Single sessions and packages available.
Restorative
Restorative yoga is the complement to our busy, and often times, stressful lives. We will use bolsters, blankets and blocks to support the body in comfortable, long held poses, allowing for deep relaxation and and rest. As the body begins to rest, the breath quiets, and the mind is naturally drawn towards stillness and calm. All levels including those pregnant, injured, or new to studio, are welcome. Great as an off-day practice.
Vinyasa
In Vinyasa Yoga we move with the breath, linking each transition into a pose, as well as out of a pose, with breath, and utilizing the breath to go deeper in any held poses. In this Open level class students will move through a well rounded series of Sun Salutations. From there class will incorporate various standing poses, balances, backbends, twists and seated postures into the sequence in creative and thoughtful combinations. Proper alignment will ensure that students are safe and comfortable in their bodies, while the focus will be on maintaining a steady and easeful breath. All levels are welcome!
Yin & Restorative
Combining short sometimes sassy yin yoga holds with long go-deep snooze restorative poses, this is your chill-day practice to relax and center. When our joints’ full expression of mobility is underused, the connective tissue loses elasticity. In yin yoga, we compress connective tissue, rather than stretch it, by gently holding long seated poses. Restorative yoga uses props to safely and comfortably support the body in supine yoga poses, fostering complete relaxation. Together, these two practices allow students to let go of holding, relieving stress and tension. Great complement for active practices or students looking for an after-spa-like feel. Students of all levels, pregnant persons, and those recovering from injuries welcome. Light chanting music is played.
