These are classes that are not on the regular schedule, but that we have from time to time. Be sure to give them a try when you see them!

Integrated Hatha Yoga

Integrated Hatha yoga is a next-level class in the same lineage of the Bikram tradition. It is very similar to what’s known in the Bikram world as the advanced 84 class. It is a 90-minute, dialogue-based, set-series class and contains the same 26 postures from the Bikram series, plus about 50 additional postures pulled from the advanced series. We safely practice arm balances, backbends, hip openers, and many more strength-building postures! One of the things that sets this class apart from other intermediate or advanced classes is that it is taught with an operational command dialogue, so it has the same familiar rhythm, cadence, and intensity of the Bikram that we all know and love. And yes, it’s done in the same heat! We suggest taking this class once you have a solid Bikram or Ashtanga foundation (about six months of consistent practice).

Jivamukti Yoga Spiritual Warrior

Jivamukti Yoga® Spiritual Warrior classes are designed for students who want a complete ashtanga-inspired vinyasa practice in one hour. The class is fast paced and invigorating. It is certainly a “get-in-shape” class.

The structure is a fixed-set sequence instructed in a vinyasa style. It is a fully balanced class that includes asana warm-up, chanting, setting of intention, surya namaskara (sun salutation), standing poses, backbends, forward bends, twists, inversions, meditation, and relaxation. The teacher focuses on keeping the pace moving, with verbal instruction as well as plenty of hands-on assists for which the Jivamukti Method has been widely recognized. Since the asana sequence is always the same, a student will pick it up quite quickly after only a couple of classes. Due to the rigor, pacing, and physical demand of this practice, the room will be warm.

We are the only yoga studio on all of Long Island that is authorized to offer this class.
