Class Descriptions and Benefits:

Hatha Yoga involves a set of asanas (physical postures) and breathing techniques. These are typically practiced more slowly and with more static posture holds than a Vinyasa flow or Ashtanga class. All levels are encouraged to attend. Beginners are more than welcome. If time permits, class will end with a short reiki segment.

Restorative Yoga is a restful practice that is all about slowing down and opening your body through passive stretching. It's a peaceful practice that holds asanas (yoga poses) for a longer duration using props like yoga blocks, blankets, and bolsters. It is a practice of deep relaxation that emphasizes the meditative aspect of yoga—the union of body and mind. All levels are encouraged.

Vinyasa Flow Vinyasa yoga links movement with breath. In this class, we will move through balance, strength, and grounding poses to deepen the mind/body connection, reduce stress, and develop range of motion and strength. Use of props and modifications are provided to accommodate individual practices and promote self-compassion. This class is for all levels.

Kids Yoga This 45-minute class is intended for 3-10 year olds. They will strengthen their bodies through yoga poses as well as play fun yoga games. They will also learn mindfulness activities, useful breathing exercises and relaxation/visualization techniques. All of this happens while having fun, laughing, and fostering their imaginations! Taught by a mom of two young children of her own.

Prenatal Yoga During Prenatal yoga, the focus is on promoting flexibility, strength, and relaxation while accommodating the physical and emotional changes that occur during pregnancy. It helps reduce common discomforts such as back pain, swelling, and fatigue while improving posture and balance. The gentle movements can also help alleviate stress and anxiety, fostering a sense of calm and well-being.

Currently, prenatal yoga is being offered as a private +/or semi-private offering. Please reach out to Liz Hosman via email liz@alhosman.com or by phone at 617-413-8514 to book an appointment.

Steph Robinson

Steph started practicing yoga when she started college in 2013 at Plymouth State University. She fell in love with the breath to movement and saw the noticeable changes in her body, mind, and spirit. Over the years, yoga has become the golden thread that has connected her more deeply with herself and her community.

Steph started teaching shortly after receiving her 200 HR certification in May of 2021 from the Dragonfly Yoga Barn in Sandwich, NH. She strives to apply what she’s learned from the incredible teachers she has encountered over the years to her classes.
