Blanket Yoga
“Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.” –The Bhagavad Gita
Blanket Yoga
Experience Yoga in a Whole New Way
A funny sounding term, Blanket Yoga it is what it is, and what it is, is amazing once you experience it. The gentle supportive poses bring your body back into alignment so you can go deeper into your practice.
This is not 'workout' yoga, but rather a practice that has the power to reveal and support your inner vibrant Self. By practicing Blanket Yoga you can begin to enhance your life in every way; reverse the hands of time, discover an easy way to increase your strength and mobility, move through your day without frustration, strain or pain. We have seen incredible progress in our students. Some practice once a week while others practice every day. The options are here for you to begin your healing journey.
To understand this style of yoga, we invite you to release your definition of yoga. We are not balancing, twisting, bending over backwards, or stretching. We are resting, leaning into the floor, the blankets, the props. We are returning to our bodies, allowing our bodies to remember how to soften, to release tension and pain, and to relearn how to support our frame without pain or restriction. We invite you to join us.
We are a healing community offering group yoga classes every day of the week, as well as private yoga, yoga therapy, and other options that are tailored to your specific needs and goals.
Join us for a Thursday Yoga Basics class and see what this style of yoga is all about. If Thursday doesn’t fit your schedule, let us know and we’ll make some arrangements for you that might work better. Begin your recovery path today; your first class is always free, that’s how we get you hooked!

"Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha"
This is a mantra from Ganapati Upanishad. One may always use it before beginning a journey, so that impediments are removed and your endeavor may be crowned with success.

Studio Philosophy
We practice supported and compassionate styles of yoga. You can come to most any class regardless of your fitness or experience level, although we encourage you to start with the Thursday night basics class for the first month or so before moving on to the mixed level classes. Call or text anytime if you have any questions or concerns. Please arrive for class 10-15 minutes early. New students will need to fill out a registration form. Drop-ins are welcome!
Class Descriptions:
Beginners Basics: Learn the primary yoga poses and movements as well as other foundational elements of the practice. This class is designed for first time students to learn and understand the basic poses of Svaroopa Yoga. Once you are comfortable with these poses and movements, feel free to try out our other classes.
Gain + Maintain: Take the basic poses farther and learn more advanced poses and movements. We explore more deeply the mechanics of the poses, and how they relate to your normal movement and life. These are ongoing classes that you can join at any time.
Rise + Revive: This is a shorter class that aims to get you energized for your day ahead. Active and uplifting, get your body moving gently and get ready to have an amazing day. This is a mixed level class that expects students to have a basic understanding of the practice.
Master Mechanics: This weekly class is for more experienced yoga students who have a home practice and a deeper experience with the practice. We encourage you to speak with Kris before attending a deeper class to make sure it's a fit for you. We hold poses for longer periods of time, add more advanced variations to the poses, explore the deeper aspects of the angles and apply these new awarenesses to our normal movements in daily life. This master class is about getting the most out of your practice and then taking your yoga home and into everyday life.
