Flow State, also known as being "in the zone," is a mental state of heightened focus, complete engagement, and pure enjoyment in the activity at hand. In our Vinyasa Yoga practice, we harness the essence of 'Flow State' through the seamless transition of poses and the synchronicity of breath and movement.

Led by Donny, this class will guide you through a dynamic and balanced sequence designed to awaken your senses and ignite your inner fire. With each breath, you will flow gracefully from one posture to the next, allowing the body to move intuitively and effortlessly.  The first half of the practice will be dedicated to flowing through sequences with one breath per movement, inviting you to surrender to the flow and embrace the fluidity of the practice. In the second half of the class, we will transition into holding postures, allowing you to delve deeper into the experience of each pose while remaining anchored in the present moment. Throughout the entire practice, you will be encouraged to let go of distractions and distractions and to cultivate a sense of inner stillness and clarity.

By the end of this practice, you will emerge feeling revitalized, centered, and deeply connected to the goal of yoga... FREEDOM!

We will begin class with a grounding meditation and continue into a Vinyasa Flow with the intention of "Service" and taking your yoga off of the mat and sharing it with the world. It's the yoga on the mat and off that serves our soul and sets us free. With each movement we will cultivate a sense of selflessness and compassion, knowing that the practice of yoga extends far beyond the boundaries of our mats.

This balanced, grounded, and heart-opening practice will remind you why we practice yoga, leaving you feeling inspired to step up, show up, and be of service to a world that needs your light. Together, let us embrace the true essence of yoga – union, connection, and service to all beings.
