PRANA POWER YOGA / VINYASA

 

Prana is “life force energy”. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, (TCM) we call this energy “Chi”. Hali Love’s Prana Power Yoga / Vinyasa classes are anchored in the meridian theory from TCM.  You will flow through a sequence of intelligently structures yoga postures themed to target the areas of your body that are holding on to tension, and to strengthen the areas that need strength to enhance your overall well-being.  Prana Power Yoga teacher trainees receive 50 Deeply Themed Prana Power Yoga Sequences, including Posture Lab, Meditation, Pranayama and more.

YIN YOGA

Albeit a “new” style of yoga that has existed for just over a decade, its’ philosophy which is anchored in Traditional Chinese Medicine is thousands of years old.  Love’s Yin Yoga classes incorporate long held releasing postures geared to access to the deep tissues of your body in order to allow deeply held emotions & stuck energies that are blocking the flow of your chi.  These classes adhere to the Four Tattvas of Yin Yoga: Edge, Stillness, Time & Release.  You will experience long held postures, as well as some incorporation of yang movement. Yin Yoga teacher trainees receive a complete Yin Yoga Manual including TCM theory, posture lab, yin yoga anatomy & more.

RESTORATIVE YOGA

The keyword in Love’s Restorative Yoga is REST. These classes are yoga for yoga nervous system. You will receive deep rest as you move from one long held soul nurturing posture to the next.  Restorative Yoga teacher trainees will receive a posture guide, including set up, class theming, meditations and pranayama; as well as Human Nervous System Anatomy.   

YOGA NIDRA

Hali Love teaches a style of Yoga Nidra that was created by Psychotherapist Dr. Richard Miller, known as Integrative Restoration (iRest). Backed by numerous western science studies, this style of Yoga Nidra has proven to provide both the body and mind with both deep rest and sustainable healing.  Science has shown that a 30 - 40 minute practice of this style of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to 4 - 6 hours of deep sleep.
