Expect

Expect a combination of yoga postures alongside traditional HIIT elements like jumping jacks, squats and pushups. This class is taught to the beat of music and is choreographed start to finish by your teacher.

Weights 5 to 12lbs are offered, although every movement can be done without weights if you choose. The Power practice is done barefoot so that you can stay firmly connected to the earth.

This class is unheated, as we will move fiercely through the practice to create our own heat.

Peaceful Prana

PEACEFUL PRANA IS OUR JOURNEY TOWARD A BALANCED STATE.

Why?

Why take a class with us at a brewery? Because yoga studios can be intimidating! We try our hardest to make you feel welcome, but the truth is that some of us need to wade in the shallow end before taking that big leap into a studio class.

A brewery’s atmosphere is perfect for not taking yourself too seriously, and we would love for you to feel that way while you practice. Maybe it’s your first time taking yoga or you just need a change of scenery. No matter what, we create a safe space for you to explore and have fun.

Where?

Each Tuesday at 6:15pm, we will gather in the production room behind the bar at Hopfly Brewing. It is a large space, enough to exceed our studio’s capacity by a lot! Wear layers, especially in the winter months, as that room can be a touch chilly. We promise to warm you up with our flows.

Check in with the bartender and tell them you are here for yoga. You will pay the ticket fee there, and they will either give you your beverage then (if you want it then) or a token to grab it afterwards. Make your way through the double doors just to the right of the bar, and you’ve made it to class!

Impact

The impact of this class will most likely be felt physically first and mentally second. An inevitable impact is caloric burn, improved cardiovascular endurance and stronger muscles. The more valuable impact will be on your mind, your self confidence and your energetic state.

You will feel exhilarated and exhausted, confident in your abilities, and more motivated to take on challenging tasks.

Expect

Expect a class that is a blend of both worlds: movement and rest. Guided meditation, breath work, slower, engaging movements and longer holds bring you into the present moment. Glide into more restorative postures toward the end of class to give your body and mind the rest it deserves.

Props like bolsters, blankets and blocks are encouraged to create a support system and bring comfort to your practice.

This class is warm to create softness in the muscles but not warm enough to overwhelm.

Intent

The intention of Prana (loosely translated as breath in Sanskrit) is to move in tandem with your breath and to harness it as a tool and a compass for your personal practice.

When the breath is comfortable, maybe go deeper or stay comfortable. When it gets shallow, pull back, rest and reset. Your breath is a guide if you let it be one.

Prana Erin Fitzsimmons Prana Erin Fitzsimmons

Impact

This practice will impact your mind, body and breath all at once. By moving at a cadence that links breath to movement, you will challenge your endurance and your physical limits.

You will always walk away having learned something new - about the practice, about yourself and what you are capable of accomplishing.

Expect

Expect to strengthen and stretch, to move freely and to be still. This is our traditional vinyasa yoga practice, where vinyasa translates to “place in a special way”.

This means that each class and each teacher will be a unique experience. Wear things that are comfortable to move and sweat in, as this practice is heated by infrared heating panels to 85 degrees Fahrenheit from October 1st through Memorial Day. Classes are unheated from Memorial Day through September 30th. The summer heat is more than enough.

Props like blocks and straps are encouraged to make all postures conform to you, rather than you conforming to fit the postures.

Peace Erin Fitzsimmons Peace Erin Fitzsimmons

Intent

The intention of Peace is to slow down and to truly exist without expectation. Peace is a Yin Yoga practice that invites us to sit still for long periods of time, allowing us to surrender rather than relax.

Impact

The impact of this particular practice is on you as a whole. You will leave with a clearer mind and looser muscles, but you will also leave learning a little more about yourself. This practice is a teacher in itself.

Expect

Expect to hold poses for at least 3 to 5 minutes at a time. Props like bolsters, blocks and blankets will be used to make this practice more comfortable and more accessible. Feel free to wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes. Sweatshirts and socks are encouraged as this class is not heated.

Drop In

Pay what you can drop-in

This is meant to make this practice more accessible than it would be if we charged one price. The pricing is meant to make you reflect internally before you even walk in the door.

Our drop-in rate is a sliding scale from $18 to $35, allowing you to pay what you can while still supporting the teacher financially.

Sliding Scale pricing was a concept introduced to me by my website designer, Raudhah Rahman, who learned from her mentor, Michelle C. Johnson. The incredible branding strategist we worked with, Emmy Singer, also uses a sliding scale for her work.

It was through these experiences that I realized how impactful and helpful this structure could be for a yoga studio.
