About Us

Gentle Yoga is for beginners or experienced practioners interested in a practice that builds strength, flexibility and balance. Themed classes offer gentle movement and mindful practices that allow you to feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Join us in the unique setting among the hills of the beautiful Northeast Kingdom.

Yoga for men is designed for the unique needs of men, from targeted mobility training using passive stretching over time to  help open the hips, hamstrings, and back (among other things.)

By holding specific poses for up to 5 minutes and relaxing to let gravity do the work, students can affect change and feel lasting benefits.

Trapeze Yoga offers a unique way of building upper body and core strength. In addition, the trapeze allows for certain poses to be passive, so you can assume deeper backbends and stretching in a way that lets you hold poses safely and for longer periods of time. Inversion therapy is known to have significant benefits including instant traction on the spine, relief of back pain, increased range of motion and more. Take a swing on the trapeze!

After a long day on the trails a Restorative Yoga class will allow your body to completely rest through simple movement, props for support, and guided meditations. The stillness of this peaceful class will allow you to regain a calm balance and soothe tired muscles.

 Geared to the beginning practitioner, participants will be introduced to the principals of alignment. Working from a seated position or standing with the chair as a support you will work on flexibility, balance and strength.   

 Kundalini is a Kriya-based yogic technology that integrates all eight limbs of yoga.   A little different than Vinyasa or Hatha yoga classes, a Kundalini class will ignite the fire within and can support healing on the cellular and energic levels.    Each class will have a specific theme or area of support for the practice.   My goal is to create a fun, welcoming, and safe environment that supports all individuals and all levels on their personal journies.   If you are looking for something new, this is where you want to be.   Come to class with an open mind and prepare to feel great. 

Mindfulness can help one to cope with stress, illness, grief, increase one’s patience and ability to relax, think more clearly, relate more effectively in relationships, and in parenting. We will learn a variety of simple meditation and relaxation techniques, movement, and ways to use our resources in our daily lives.

There will be an Introductory class to commence an eight week, evening weeknight program culminating with an All Day workshop.

This is a class designed to help reduce stress and anxiety through practicing mindfulness activities and following guided meditations.

Each week Karen uploads chants to the group Facebook page.
