Violet Petals Yoga Oasis is a unique experience where students are given individualized attention. Sessions are
designed to bring awareness to breath (pranayama) creating a dynamic flow through the major energy centers
(chakras) of the body, to open, energize, harmonize and encourage more union within body, mind and spirit.
Students are guided using safe principles of alignment to explore their own individual inner edge and comfort zone. Each
session concludes with deep relaxation (savasana) and meditation techniques providing a fundamental element to
facilitate balance and stillness of the mind to break patterns of stress and anxiety.
(Violet Petals was named after the color of the 7th Chakra (Sahasrara) the Crown or Lotus Chakra the Thousand Petaled
Lotus).
All Level Sattva: (Sattva (SUT Vah) in Sanskrit means the quality of being pure, calm and clear, creating a state of
balance. Designed for practitioners of all levels beginner to experienced practitioners. Focuses on staying in touch with
comfort zone deepening awareness and connection within body, mind and spirit. Classes themed and structured around
level of students in attendance.

therapeutic and a wonderful way to de-stress.
Studio Guidelines
Studio opens 10 minutes before class.
Classes will begin on time, plan to arrive a few minutes early so that everyone can benefit from the full session. If you
must arrive late, please enter quietly so others are not disturbed during the initial meditation.
For optimal yoga practice, refrain from eating a heavy meal 2-3 hours prior to class start time. A light snack such as a
piece of fruit is helpful to maintain blood sugar level.
What is Yoga?
Translated from Sanskrit, yoga means “yuj”, or to yoke, join or bring union to the body, mind and spirit. An ancient
science developed in India over 5,000 years ago, the physical aspect (asanas) was formed as a tool to soften stress in the
body and to bring stillness to the mind as a preparation for meditation. Stillness in the mind is not the lack of energy or
movement. It is harmony in action creating a sense of overall peace, joy and wellness.
What are the benefits of Yoga?
Consistent and regular practice of yoga offers therapeutic benefits. Some may include: Increasing inner strength, tone,
flexibility in the body and mobility in the joints, regulating digestion, reducing stress and anxiety, improving concentration
and mental clarity, increasing lung capacity, encouraging healthy immune system, alleviating pain in the body, massaging
of all the internal organs, glands and cells, balancing cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure levels.
