FUN, FREEDOM, FLOW

Fun

Group photo of Barefoot Works Instructors; Emily, Teresa, Sharon and SarahAt Barefoot Works you'll find that our classes are uplifting and our teachers are inspiring. We know there's a time to be serious in yoga, but we also believe in unleashing our inner child and moving in a state of joy. Let's face it. In a world where it's easy to take ourselves too seriously, the best thing we could possibly do is laugh at ourselves. Please don't confuse our joyful classes with lack of knowledge, however. Our teachers are Yoga Alliance certified and highly trained in the art and science of yoga. We blend our years of experience with our love of yoga to provide students a fun-filled practice they want to return to again and again.

Freedom

At Barefoot Works we believe no two people are exactly the same. So why should two postures be exactly the same? Yoga is not “one size fits all” so we do not instruct in this way. Yes, we have the knowledge and skills to place you in a posture and have you hold it for three minutes while we give you a rundown of the yoga dos and don'ts of alignment (and we may do that in a yoga basics class). But we prefer to teach you to find freedom in your poses and freedom in your mind. We will stand alongside you and help you to grow strong, improve flexibility, find focus, and discover the art of balance on and off the mat all in your own style.

Flow

Like life, yoga poses are not static and unchanging. As you read this your body is changing, the earth is revolving, and as much as we'd sometimes like, time is not standing still. Our classes are rooted in the Vinyasa (flow) style of yoga, meaning that the postures are beautifully strung together by the breath. In some classes you may be led through a slow flow that leaves you in a state of rest and relaxation. In other classes you may practice a dynamic and vigorous flow that leaves you feeling vibrant, alive, and deeply rejuvenated. Regardless of the pace, in each of our classes you will experience the bliss that comes from using your breath to guide your body in a natural state of flow.
