Welcome to Shine

Namaste

Welcome! We invite students of all levels at Shine, with our main focus being Anusara Yoga. Anusara has therapeutic applications and is a wonderful practice for those dealing with injuries or physical limitations. But Anusara also provides the alignment and foundation you need to take your yoga practice to the next level. Yoga meets you where you are, and our aim at Shine is to do just that.

In addition to our Anusara classes, we offer Tai Chi, YogaChant, Yogilates, Vinyasa Flow, Prenatal, Mommy & Me Yoga, and much more. No matter what style of yoga is the best fit for you, this beautiful practice will help you relieve stress, increase your energy level, improve your posture, develop strength, balance, flexibility, patience and mental focus. And it's just plain fun! Please join us.

SHINE FAQs...

1. Do I have to pre-register for a class? No pre-registration is necessary. Just come on in a few minutes in advance of the class you wish to attend to fill out a quick registration form, and you're good to go.

2. How much is it? Your first class is just $10. Drop-in classes thereafter are $13, but you have many options for purchasing class passes (now all passes are good for one year!)

3. Should I bring a mat? If you have a mat, please bring it. Otherwise, we have mats you are welcome to borrow.

4. What should I wear? Wear comfy, stretchy clothing that's easy to move in but not overly large. Don't worry about what shoes to wear - you'll be taking them off!
