With Listening First Yoga
at: Mindful Nashville Germantown (North Nashville)
100 Taylor St. Suite A-12, Nashville, TN
Community Pricing: $72 - $112 for 4 weeks
What do you think of when you hear the words “power yoga”? If you’ve tried a typical power yoga class, you might have experienced a heated room, a set sequence of movement, lots of getting up and down from the floor, or long-held shapes. But there are many ways to find a powerful practice!
In Gentle Power, we'll explore shapes that can build strength and stability while honoring your body and practicing choice. Our trauma-informed instruction offers many variations and choices throughout class, so you can find the shapes that empower you. This class uses more props and less getting up and down from the floor than a typical power yoga class. Accessible breathwork, rest, and optional sharing time included.

Great place for beginners and experienced practitioners who love subtle practices! Pulled from Hatha Yoga as well as other styles and movement modalities. Gentle Yoga is slow movements, longer holds, and lots of options for rest alongside mindful challenges. Think of my Basics classes like the basics of movement - we’ll explore mobility, breathwork, classic asana (yoga shapes), meditation, and some philosophy.
