Owl's Head Yoga Studio
Class Spotlight: Yoga 101
Yoga 101 is not just for the beginner to Yoga (Yoga poses / postures / asana), it is also a great way to develop or regain form when growing your practice. We sometimes have to take things back to their roots to gain a deeper understanding of what we think we have learned. We honor that it is hard to break bad habits, but with practice, anything is possible! Discover or refresh your posture and engagements as we often leave out these key components of engagement and form when trying to keep up in faster moving classes.

Our Classes
Yoga meets You where You are.
Yoga 101
(Beginner to Advanced Beginner)
Geared toward the beginner, but also great for students with more experience looking to further develop basic postures. These classes provide extra instruction within slow-paced sequences, allowing you to build a strong foundation while reaping the benefits of any Yoga practice.
Hatha & Flow 1 – 2
(Advance Beginner to Intermediate)
A paced Yoga flow, good for those familiar with yoga postures. This class is a great introduction to traditional vinyasa (one breath, one movement style). Sequences offer arm balancing, standing poses, forward bends, backbends, and twists. Ideal for advanced beginner through intermediate levels. Working with detailed alignment cues, you can find your Self in a pose.
Vinyasa
(Intermediate Through Advanced)
Vinyasa yoga translates as connected movement (one breath, one movement). An energetic, multilevel practice that creates a cleansing body heat, builds strength, and improves stamina and focus. Dynamic movement is threaded into an intelligent flow sequence, offering a wide range of stamina-challenging poses. Flow to discover and explore your “breath movement” while you strengthen your balance and find your center.
Core Connection
(All levels)
Core Connection is a great partnering to any level of yoga or fitness, or for anyone looking to strengthen their core. These sequences are yoga-inspired pilates on a mat and are geared to strengthen and tone your tummy/core/center/Solar Plexus! A strong core creates a strong body and a supported spine!
Sweet Spot
(All Levels)
Take it easy with this gentle, deep stretching, grounding flow. Class begins with breath control exercises (pranayama). You are then lead into small movements to bring focus into your body. The sequences are composed of mostly ground work and are held to gain a deeper awareness of the stretch, while maximizing that sweet feeling of each posture. Sweet Spot is a great way to increase your flexibility and build a greater understanding of the encompassing pose. It’s like getting a deep massage for the body and mind!
Yoga Bootcamp
(All Levels)
Work out while you work in! Yoga Bootcamp is not only for strengthening a yoga practice, but is athletically geared to build and strengthen keys muscles while increasing balance and flexibility, and making you feel stronger overall in your body. This class is great for the active individual looking for a fusion of an impactful workout within a yoga practice. It’s like pumping iron without the use of weights. Drop and give me Zen!
Dharma Starts 11/29
(Intermediate Through Advanced)
Appropriate for students who want to expand on their practice and are seeking that extra push. Not ideal for the beginner to yoga. As with any yoga practice, there is no space for ego. You must honor where your body will take you. Powerfully paced and challenging sequences of balancing, stretching, back bending, twisting, and inverted postures bring you to places you didn’t know you could go!
Simple Stretch
(All Levels)
It’s simply said! It’s a simple stretch!! Stretching is an important part of life not just for the fitness-hearted. Stretching can improve range of motion, increase circulation, and create a calm mind. This class is great for the 9 to 5-ers, the weight lifter, the cardio fitness junkie, and those who might be intimidated by what yoga means. If you are in need of a good stretch, this class is for you!
Shakti Flow (Women Only)
Created with our hips in mind!! Beginning with pranayama (breath control exercises), we will work through 1 to 5 traditional Moon Salutations. Leaving us in a blissful state to take the much-needed time for our Goddess self to connect with our breath, as well as capture the moment in peaceful silence.
Belly Dancing
(All Levels)
Each class we will explore the basic technique of the dance, also known as Raqs Sharqui or dance of the East with movements from Northern and Southern Egypt, Tunisia and Turkey, including foot patterns, arm placement, traveling steps, hip work, turns and balancing steps and fun steps for dancing at parties, as well as for performance at any venue. Over the course of this ongoing class, we will also learn veil technique and finger cymbals.

Owl’s Head?
We honor our Ridgian roots by paying homage to our outdoor yoga home, Owl’s Head Park while remembering countless childhood memories of the old Ridge and especially those we hold close to our hearts. The park that my family would gather in became the place that deepened my love of Yoga teaching. During these past 3 years of teaching in Owl’s Head Park, I have learned more about the people and have grown more in love with my community. Naming our Yoga home after the Park is a mission to share our love of all neighborhood parks with the love of our communities. Parks are heartfelt community gifts of nature to kids of all ages!!
And, WHO-OO doesn’t love Owls, 😉 XO!!
