Samayama Yoga
City Fitness’ unique style of yoga. “Sama” means equal or evenly distributed, “yama” means self-disipline. Our approach intergrates conscious breath, flow of movement, alignment, visulization and relaxation with their application in yoga asana. Our teachers are influenced by the methods of Ashtanga, Anusara, Iyengar and Kripalu, and therefore bring their own unique experience to each class. Advanced classes are for seasoned practitioners.
