What the practice looks like
Yoga leads the timetable, and Yoga Flow is one of the classes that shows the studio's approach most clearly. Flow classes and strength-focused sessions such as Pilates Sculpt and Core and pelvic floor work appear alongside it, so a practice here can build strength as well as ease. Quieter offerings like Restore: Yin Yoga and Slow Flow to Yin give the week a slower counterpoint.
Most classes last about an hour, with a few longer yin sessions and shorter restorative sessions.
How the week runs
Morning is the center of the week, with about half of classes beginning before noon and the earliest starts at 6am. Many people practice before the day begins, and Monday, Tuesday and Thursday carry the most classes. Evenings are present too, with starts running through 7:15pm, and weekend classes are a smaller part of the schedule.
