-Learning proper form and terminology for indoor cycling
-Calculate your personal HR (heart rate) zones for your goals

It's a fun and upbeat way to spend a spare 30 minutes.

Chair Yoga
Working from home?  Sitting all day?  Learn how use your chair as a prop for your yoga practice!  In this class, we will customize postures from many styles of yoga and adapt them to use in a chair.  Each class will have a focus on moving your spine, opening your hips & shoulders, learning customized variations of postures, breath work, stabilizing your legs and core and general flexibility.  This class is great for:  office workers, writers, gamers, drivers, the elderly and / injured.  Classes are as short as 15 minutes!


Cycle Flow (30/30) ONLINE:
Love cycling?  Need yoga?  This 60 minute class is the BEST of both worlds!  The first 30 minutes of class will be an indoor cycling class designed to safely and swiftly move the rider through several energy zones.  Suited for all level riders, this short session promotes a personalized ride based on YOU.  Newer riders can work on aerobic base building as the more seasoned riders focus on stamina and endurance.  The last half of this 60 minute class is all about the post-ride yoga, designed specifically for the needs of cyclists.  For greater detail about this portion of class, see the Cyclist's & Runner's Yoga class description below.

Cyclist's & Runner's Yoga ONLINE:
This highly customized 45-60 minute class focuses on creating better balance in the cyclist & runner body. Tending to both over utilized & under active areas in these body types, we establish a better sense of balance to prevent injuries!  A Fusion style class, we tap into the wisdom held within several yoga traditions such as Hatha, Yin, Pranayama & Slow Flow Vinyasa.  This allows us to work on building strength in stagnation, practice release of muscle and mind,  gain energy and relaxation through breath while building lung capacity and practicing intentional, flowing movements.  As Justine's signature class, you can expect to learn a lot about the why behind the postures, learn to use props to customize the practice to you and have a lot of fun while listening to some sick tunes.  Class is great for both pre and post riding or running!  
NOTE: You DO NOT need to be a cyclist or a runner to enjoy & benefit from this class :)

Some areas of focus for class:

-Open your hips/ hip flexors
-Open your quads & hamstrings
-Open your calves & achilles

Yin Yoga ONLINE:
Yin is a cooling practice that gently stretches the more plastic-like layers of your body such as ligaments, tendons, fascia, joints and even bone! In this class, we will explore the Yin principles and benefits. Predominantly, a floor practice, we use props to support your body in different shapes, allowing your muscles to release. In doing so, these other areas of your body can receive the action of the posture.  I highly recommend coupling this online class with some of your favorite essential oils!
*Who is this good for? Everyone! This is a very complimentary practice to anyone with an active lifestyle! Whether you participate heating building yoga practices, run, cycle, swim, dance, or maybe hold a fast paced and stressful job, this is for you. It is also wonderful for those who prefer to move slowly, spend time in postures and who may experience limited joint mobility.  Hold times will hover around 3-5 minutes with variations.  This class is open to all levels of practice.

-Water or tea

blanket and/or pillow

Yin-Yasa ONLINE
In this 60-90 minute class, we explore the intricate relationship between equal & opposite practices- moving, changing, heat building, pushing, pulling, striving YANG. Stillness, observance, cooling, releasing, accepting YIN. Your mind may be more challenged than you think. Your body will be more balanced than you can imagine. Relax. Release. Restore. This class is the definition of having #yogabrain. This is an open levels class.
