Class Descriptions
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 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.
Gentle / Basic: For new practitioners or for those seeking a more gentler practice.
Restorative Yoga: Relax, Renew and Rejuvenate. A gentler practice offering a deeper release of stored
tension. Very 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.
