What type of class are you looking for?
If you want something slower...
We suggest the Yin/Restorative Yoga class (Wednesdays from 7-8pm), Donation Morning Yoga (Sundays from 9:45-10:45am), or Slow Flow (Mondays from 7:15-8:15pm). The Wednesday (7pm) classes have the least amount of postures, holding for longer periods, allowing the body to stretch deeper into the postures. The Sunday (9:45am) classes and Monday (7:15pm) class moves slowly with both flow and holding postures. These classes are heated between 80-90 degrees.
If you want something faster paced and/or more challenging...
We suggest the Donation YinYasa Yoga class (Saturdays from 11am-12pm), Donation Hot Yoga (Sundays from 11am-12pm), or Thursday Hot Yoga classes (5:45-6:45pm). The Saturday Donation YinYasa Yoga (11am) class is heated around 80-90 degrees, and alternates between slow yin postures, and faster vinyasa to create internal heat/raise the heart rate. The Sunday Donation Hot Yoga (11am) class is heated to around 90-95. This class is a high intensity class with a lot of movement and some holding postures. The Thursday classes (5:45pm) are heated around 90-95 degrees, and are a combination of holding postures (Hatha and Yin), and flow (Vinyasa). These classes begin with low lighting and sometimes the lights are turned off for part of the class (so that you can focus on the postures and yourself without having the distractions of your sight).
If you want something unlike anything you've done before...
We offer a Suspension-Extension Coyopa Yoga class. This class, unique to Ann Arbor, Michigan (and possibly the world!), uses cables similar to TRX to get into yoga postures. This class is a challenging class, but works the muscles that other yoga do not always get to. It can be easier to balance and hold certain postures that are difficult in regular yoga because of the straps. However, it also works on the tighter and weaker muscles first. It is a combination of holding and Vinyasa flow with the straps. Your first several classes, you will probably be sore, but if you keep coming back, you will see great results! This class is taught on Mondays (5:45-6:45pm). The studio is heated to around 90-95 degrees.
