At Yoga of Sausalito, our focus is on quality of instruction, not
quantity.
Multiple studios and oversized classes simply do not allow for the

The owners are practicing yogis and rehab-specialists. They have
carefully selected a teaching staff of yogis who are also physical
therapists, doctors of oteopathy, physiotherapists, professional
dancers and functional-anatomy specialists.
We are all here to serve you every day.
We offer a full schedule of daily hatha yoga classes focusing
on the integration of physical, emotional and spiritual alignment.
Come enjoy the vitality and serenity that comes with a regular practice
in the company of like-minded community.

CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
ANUSARA YOGA:
Anusara (a-nu-sa-ra) means flowing with Grace. Founded by John Friend,
Anusara Yoga is a hatha yoga system that unifies Universal Principles
of Alignment with a non-dual philosophy that is epitomized by a
celebration of the heart.
EXPLORATORY MOVEMENT FOR YOGA:
This practice draws from Hatha Yoga, Kundalini, Qigong, Taoist Yoga
and sound, systematic movement of the human body. The instruction
considers the individual needs of every student, and is based on
the unique issues of each student's posture, injuries or limitations,
mindset, and energy level. In practicing each asana, the student
is guided to use the soundest principles of natural movement. The
focus is on stability from the inner body (core) so that the outer
body can move freely and lengthen. As a result, the body becomes
firmer and stronger in the core, bringing ease of movement to the
outer body. Blended into the practice is a focus on energy and movement
of energy that helps expand and ground rather than contract the
body, and consequently, the mind and spirit. Yoga becomes a practice
of ease rather than one of stress and effort.
GENTLE YOGA:
This a gentle, flowing class is designed for the beginner or anybody
who is curious about hatha yoga but thinks they cannot do it.
HATHA FLOW:
This class is a fusion of styles, drawing elements from Ashtanga
and Anusara. A warm, flowing, meditative class harmonizing breathe
with movement cultivating strength, balance and flexibility. Students
will learn to refine postures and move beyond the limitations of
the body and mind.
INTRO TO YOGA:
This is the perfect place to begin exploring the body and building
your understanding of basic yoga fundamentals including alignment,
breath and meditation.
KUNDALINI:
Kundalini Yoga (as taught by Yogi Bhajan) uses breath, postures,
chanting & meditation to balance the glandular system, strengthen
the nervous system and stimulate the subtle pranic channels (nadis).
Regular practice promotes self-healing, mental clarity and leads
to self-mastery.
SOMATICS:
A safe, gentle style of yoga focused on inward sensing
and conscious rebalancing of the body. The term "soma" refers to
the body as experienced and directed from within, and Somatic Yoga
cultivates within us a sensitive inner awareness and control of
our physical state. Through principles of awareness we work directly
with the voluntary and involuntary nervous systems to promote healthy
alignment and movement patterns. We perform specific movement sequences
to engage unconscious reflexes which balance muscle tension and
promote muscle lengthening. We also consciously release holding
in the body by being mindful of our internal sensations, learning
how to inhibit muscle tension and allow greater flexibility and
relaxation. While this practice is physically gentle, its effects
are profound.
