Class Descriptions

Core Vinyasa Yoga
Get ready to sweat! This class will challenge your strength and have you moving, breathing, and sweating. We will focus on building and engaging our core strength to support more advanced postures. Set to energizing music, these 50 minutes will strengthen, balance, and detoxify your body and mind and set you on a path for a clear and steady day ahead
Postnatal Yoga
Tailored for mothers who have recently given birth, this class is appropriate for women with all levels of yoga experience, including beginners. Babies who are not yet crawling are welcome in the room with you. This is a time to come together with other mothers, bond with your baby, and sneak in a little yoga too. We invite you to feed, soothe, and change your baby as needed during class
Kids' Yoga (ages 3-5)
Luma's Kid's Yoga classes offer a creative mix of yoga, music, art, literature, non-competitive games, and appreciation of nature. Classes are age-appropriate and encourage the development of the whole child. Classes include guided visualizations and deep relaxation to promote a sense of calm and well-being. By learning how to use yoga to both relax and energize themselves, students gain a sense of empowerment in their bodies
Vinyasa Yoga (All Levels)
Vinyasa yoga is the traditional form of yoga in which the coordination of movement with breath is integral. Postures are practiced to align, strengthen, and promote flexibility in the body. Additional breathing techniques and meditation are also commonly practiced. Each of our instructors shapes the focus, pace, and structure of the practice with their unique teaching style. All Levels is an intermediate paced class that is also appropriate for students who have been practicing for at least one year. Alternative poses will be suggested during class so that students can tailor the practice to match their comfort and level of experience
MELT
This class is open to everyone and will integrate Melt Method® techniques to work with the fascia and nervous system to gain greater stability, flexibility and mobility. The pace is medium slow to invite awareness of body and breath and to encourage a deep sense of calm for the mind and nervous system. This class is a great fit for individuals with chronic pain, injuries or just who want to enhance their sense of ease and wellbeing
Kids' Yoga (ages 6-9yrs)
Luma's Kids' Yoga classes offers a creative mix of yoga, music, art, literature, non-competitive games, and appreciation of nature. Classes are age-appropriate and encourage the development of the whole child. Classes include guided visualizations and deep relaxation to promote a sense of calm and well-being. By learning how to use yoga to both relax and energize themselves, students gain a sense of empowerment in their bodies
Prenatal Yoga
Prenatal yoga focuses on developing strength and flexibility, learning how to relax, and increasing breath awareness in order to experience a comfortable pregnancy, and prepare for birth and recovery. Moms-to-be with little or no yoga experience as well as those with an existing yoga practice are equally welcome. Many of the teachers at Luma have experience teaching pregnant women and will accommodate expecting mothers in any class. The prenatal classes, however, are specifically designed to address the unique physical and energetic needs of women who are either trying to conceive or currently pregnant
Yin/Yang Yoga
This class is an enthusiastic full-spectrum yoga practice including attention to breath, movement, and alignment. Each class combines a complementary ratio of attention to flexibility, strength and balance with encouragement for the student to exercise inner intuition and follow breath to guide their practice. Drawing from Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine, each class will be appropriately adjusted to natural forces such as season, time of day, and current atmosphere. Classes often include: gentle warm-ups with qi gong exercises, sun or moon salutations, sound anatomical alignment refinement using props, chakra and channel alignment, gentle breath work, and meditation
Breath, Form & Flow
This is a medium-hard class with a focus on breath (beyond just the mention of it), integrity of form (posture), and flow (transitions) - all in order to develop an awareness of purpose that then informs our practice, and by association, our lives off the mat. Let's make each practice count, while maintaining a strong sense of humor/wonder. Students should have at least one year of prior yoga experience
Crawler & Me
Is your baby on the move? Take advantage of this unique opportunity to keep your yoga practice going and engage your little mover. Crawler + Me yoga class enables the parent or childcare provider to practice yoga in a supportive environment. Squirmy, exploring babies are incorporated into the class through interactive exercises and songs. It only sounds impossible, we promise! This 50-minute class is appropriate for any level of yoga experience. Beginners welcome!
Yoga (Level 1/2)
Hatha Yoga is the traditional form of yoga in which postures are practiced to align, strengthen, and promote flexibility in the body. Breathing techniques and meditation are also commonly practiced. All classes on the Luma schedule are hatha yoga in nature, and each of our instructors shape the focus, pace, and structure of the practice with their unique teaching style. Level 1/2 is a beginner-intermediate class. Those students brand new to yoga are welcome, as are those with a regular practice
Tumbling Tutor
Tumbling Tutor® is a fun and exciting gymnastics-based movement experience. Each class is a fun-filled movement adventure. Barry brings over 20 years of teaching experience into his lessons, and strives to enable each child to explore, enjoy, and excel in this supportive learning environment
Teen Yoga (ages 13-17)
In this class older kids (ages 10-17) explore yoga poses, breathing techniques, meditation, and relaxation so as to develop strength and flexibility in their mind and body. Adolescents and teens will learn about the physical and philosophical practice of traditional yoga through journaling, group discussions, and activities. These classes are designed to create an optimal environment to support the development of positive self-esteem, body awareness, and stress management skills
Tween Yoga (ages 10-12)
In this class, kids ages 10-12 are invited into the enchanting world of yoga through inspired age-appropriate themes. Tweens will practice poses, play, and delve into relaxation and meditation. Come discover how yoga can connect you to peace, play, healthy living, and supportive communities
Candlelight Flow
Candlelight Intuitive Flow & Pranayama: Under the soothing glow of candlelight, this All Levels class is designed to open the heart, strengthen the body, and ground the soul as you challenge the edges of your practice while discovering steadiness and ease. Our breath-led asana practice will support your intuitive development and encourage you to trust your own rhythm. With the offer of modifications and variations throughout the class, you will be invited to explore and meet your body in each moment and surrender to the alignment of who you are with every breath. Each class will include an introduction to pranayama (breath work) and fully support the dynamics between movement, strength, stillness, and acceptance as a gateway to releasing tension and stress, and renewing the soul
New Mom + Baby Connection
Get together with other new moms in a group setting facilitated by our lactation specialists to explore and discuss the tips and tricks of successful breastfeeding and much more. Everyone is welcome no matter how you feed your baby. Our weekly meetings on Thursday from 1:30 - 2:30 pm are fun and interactive and offer a great opportunity for new moms to build lasting relationships. Our facilitators are Virginia and Vanessa, two mothers, lactation specialists, doulas, and active peer counselors with the Nursing Mothers Counsel
Gentle Yoga
This class is a less strenuous beginner's yoga class. Those students who have trouble getting up and down from the floor will be accommodated with exercises adapted to sitting in a chair. Gentle yoga is appropriate for anyone. The pace is slow and the instruction offers a tender approach to the postures
Playgroup
Drop in or reserve space in advance for our Luma Playgroup sessions. Parents are invited to join their children in the childcare room for lightly structured fun with other parents and their little ones. Activities may include daily art projects, puzzle work, play with wooden toys, number/color/word games, song & dance time with musical instruments, reading, circle time, and creative movement. Babies and Children Crawling up to 3 years of age are welcome. Parents stay with children to enjoy bonding through play, model healthy interactions, and to get to know the childcare staff
Postpartum Health Circle
Are you craving a welcoming community and nurturing conversation after the birth of your baby? We know that becoming a parent comes with as many challenges as blessings; and that it is imperative for women to have a supportive, non-judgmental, confidential place to talk about the issues they face. Each week, we will provide engaging and relevant postpartum topics for discussion, professional facilitation, postpartum resources, and gentle guidance where appropriate. The circle is intended to provide a safe and supportive space for you to cultivate connection with other mothers, gain insight into the true spectrum of postpartum changes, relearn taking care of yourself, gain confidence in your parenting, and reflect upon who you are as a mother. Please join us. Appropriate for all mothers with babies one year old and younger. Suggested donation of $5 to $10 each week. Facilitator: Jenner Rosgen, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Creative Movement (ages 3 and up)
During this dance and game class, children will learn what their bodies can do, what strength and energy they have, and how to move using time, rhythm, tempo, direction, and space. Creative dance activities help students feel respect, learn concentration, and master self-discipline
Friday Night Flow
Clear your body of the week's stress and tension with this playful Friday evening class. We will begin with a heating, invigorating flow followed by a deep cool down designed to facilitate relaxation and help you unwind. Breathing practice, playful and creative sequencing, and a deep Savasana will leave you feeling rejuvenated, and ready to take on the weekend
Community Yoga
The Community Yoga class is a discounted offering for our yoga community ($8/class) of more budget conscious practitioners. It is offered by a rotation of graduates of Luma Yoga's Teacher Training Program. Community yoga is taught in the Hatha Yoga tradition, in which postures are practiced to align, strengthen, and promote flexibility in the body. Breathing techniques and meditation are also commonly practiced. All classes on the Luma schedule are hatha yoga in nature, and each of our instructors shape the focus, pace, and structure of the practice with their unique teaching style. All Levels is an intermediate to advanced class that is also appropriate for students who have been practicing for at least one year. Alternative poses will be suggested during class so that students can tailor the practice to match their comfort and level of experience
MELT Method®: 30 Minutes of Magic
Learn how to reduce joint pain and muscle tension with self-treatment techniques that rehydrate your connective tissue and rebalance your nervous system in this unique group class. This technique will make your body feel better and keep you active and pain-free. MELT® is for everyone! For older adults who want to retain (and regain) mobility, flexibility and independence, MELT® is a must. For those that are younger and active (sedentary and athletes alike), and who want to maintain toned, flexible bodies without wear and tear-MELT is key. MELT is truly for all populations-whether you are pregnant, have joint replacements, exercise daily or never, old or young, overweight, post-surgery or an Olympic athlete-MELT will bring you great benefits and is a great starting point for any exercise regime. MELT® is a unique technique that compliments any form of exercise because it works with an entirely different system in the body. MELT is to the neurofascial system (nervous and connective tissue system), what all other form of exercise are to the musculoskeletal system
