Jivamukti Yoga ~Jivamukti Yoga class involves an ever changing flow of postures (vinyasa) that is intended to challenge you on many levels. Each class revolves around a theme based on ancient wisdom and emphasizes the importance of practicing with an elevated intention. Chanting, meditation, and inspiring music are a part of every class.
Mommy and Baby Yoga ~ In most mom and baby yoga classes, moms place a yoga blanket, usually covered with a blanket from home in case of spit-up or other spills, at the top of their yoga mat. Feel free to bring a couple of small toys too. In an ideal world, the baby will lie on the blanket happily for the duration of the class. This rarely happens. The nice thing about a mom and baby class is that you are totally free to pick up your baby and feed her, rock her, change her diaper, or walk her around the room if she cries.
Gentle Yoga- bring balance and clarity to the body and mind while creating flexibility. Beginners or even advanced practitioner who need a break.
Restorative Yoga- uses props and blankets to modify traditional yoga poses. The supportive postures gently open the body for deep relaxation and healing. This class is ideal for those going through stressful times, suffering from illness, injury or major life changes. Postures are held for extended times with the support of props.
Beginners Yoga- great for new students or students wanting a slower paced class.
Hatha Yoga- links postures, breathing, and concentration which promotes health and well being. Great for all levels.

Prenatal Yoga- uses postures, breathing, and meditation to help ease pregnancy discomforts, while strengthening your body, mind, and soul for labor and the after effects of birth. The classes create flexibility, strength, focus, and awareness through a gentle practice that is designed especially for the pregnant woman's needs.
Postnatal Yoga- is a great way to support the body's recovery after birth. Use postures, breathing techniques, and meditation to offer a practice that helps to regain overall body healing and strength, abdominal/pelvic toning, and relaxation.

Jivamukti Yoga Comes to Corpus Christi

What is Jivamukti Yoga?
Jivamukti means “liberation while living.” This modern style of yoga emerged in 1984 from one of New York City’s best-known yoga studios. Founders David Life and Sharon Gannon incorporated their study of ashtanga yoga with Shri K. Pattabhi Jois with spiritual teachings, placing special emphasis on how to apply yogic philosophy to daily life.

Michelle has just returned from a month long training program in Rhinebeck, New York. She trained directly with Sharon Gannon and David Life to obtain a 300 hour teaching certificate from the Jivamukti method. Michelle received mantra initiation from Tripura Sundari (Sharon Gannon) and Deva Das (David Life) in May of 2008. As Jivamukti Yoga makes it's way into South Texas you can be looking for workshops from other Certified Jivamukti Teachers soon. Be sure to attend The Southwest Yoga Conference October 24th-26th, 2008. Sri Sharon Gannon and Sri David Life will be in Austin as presenters for this conference. This will be the first trip back to Texas since 2005. What a wonderful way to start your Jivamukti experience! http://www.southwestyoga.com/ for more details.

What to Expect from a Jivamukti Class
Jivamukti is a vinyasa style practice and classes can be quite physically intense. Each class has a theme, which is explored through yoga scripture, chanting, meditation, asana, pranayama, and music.
