ABOUT THE YOGA
Yoga Shelter offers a variety of classes for all levels and abilities. Specializing in vinyasa yoga, also known as "power yoga," the classes focus on strength, balance and connecting movements with breath. "Shelter Strong" is the signature class and the room is heated to approximately 87 degrees. "Shelter Synergy" is also heated (85) and is a fusion class blending vinyasa with longer hold poses. "Shelter Steady" (85F) is slower yet with a focus on endurance. The "Shelter Still" class is Yin Yoga and is not overly heated (73F). It's a gentle, slow moving, class. There are a few other class types offered. Visit the website to learn more.
