Integral Yoga

Known for its clarity and spiritual focus, Integral Yoga offers a traditional and balanced approach to the ancient teachings of Yoga. The Integral Yoga Institute offers daily drop-in Hatha Yoga classes which include asana - postures, guided relaxation, pranayama – breathing practices, and meditation.

The Institute’s beginning-level classes are where countless people started their yoga practice. We offer a range of classes appropriate for every level – from gentle to advanced.

We also offer Workshops and Special Events focusing on many specific aspects of Yoga – including stress-reduction, philosophy, health, and spiritual growth.
For people interested in deepening their meditation practice, we offer free group meditations six days a week.

Service

The Integral Yoga Institute exists because of giving, Karma Yoga. The service of our teachers – who donate their time and energy – help to create a special atmosphere of love and dedication. Come experience the special quality of an Integral Yoga class with a teacher that is teaching from their love of Yoga.

We look forward to serving you.
Om Shanthi.
