Mondays 5:00pm – Beginning 1/11/21 Opposite of yang type yoga (hatha, Iyengar, power) Yin yoga is a slow paced yoga practice in which postures are held anywhere from 2-5 minutes each. Props such as blocks, bolsters and blankets are used to help access certain postures and for extra support. This type of yoga has a deeper meditative approach and its a great way to to connect with the present moment. Some of the great benefits of this practice are: lower levels of anxiety, lower blood pressure, deep tissue release, increased flexibility and calming of the mind. Yin yoga is a wonderful tool to just slow down, observe and appreciate the now. This class utilizes props – if attending at home, please have a blanket, pillow(s) or bolster, and 2 blocks or similar sized item available.  If attending in studio, we encourage you to bring what you can, and any studio props will be cleaned after use.     Gentle Flow with Jenn D Thursdays 7pm Saturdays 9:30am  We took a poll on Facebook and Instagram about adding this class either Saturdays at 9:30am or Thursdays at 7pm.  The results were 50/50, so for a limited time we will have both- whichever class has better attendance may stay on the schedule long term.     Current Class Schedule: Monday 5pm – Yin Yoga with Jenn L Monday 7pm – Lengthen & Strengthen with Jenn D Tuesday 5:30pm – Hatha with Meditation with Anita Wednesday 9:30am Yin-yasa with Katie Wednesday 5:30pm – Align & Unwind with Lindsey Thursday 7pm – Gentle Flow with Jenn D Saturday 8am – Strengthen & Flow with Jenn D Saturday 9:30am – Gentle Flow with Jenn D Sunday 10am – Lengthen & Strengthen with Jenn D   Liforme Yoga Mats are 20% off for a limited time/while supplies last.  We have grey available for purchase at the studio for $112 (Regularly $140).  You can also purchase them on our website, inquire about free local delivery!

We wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season!

*Please note – Policy change*

We have been following the MA guidelines, which state that masks must be worn, but can be removed if spaced at least 14 feet apart.  This allowed us to remove masks during class if there were 3 or less students attending classes in studio.  However, with the rising Covid numbers in the state and the area, we have made the decision to change the policy at LYC and require masks at all times in the studio including during classes for now.  We feel this is the best decision in order to do our best to keep everyone safe.

All classes are still offered virtually if you would prefer to practice at home without a mask.

In studio classes will be limited to 7 students, and masks will be required for everyone.
We highly encourage everyone to bring their own mat, as well as any props they would like to use.  If any studio equipment is used, it will be cleaned before it is used again.

For the time being, we will continue to stream at least some of our classes for those who would prefer to continue to practice at home.  *For the week of July 12th, classes will be free to attend virtually while we work out the kinks of streaming during live classes.*

Looking forward to seeing everyone in person again soon!

We would like to welcome Cara Sheridan to the teaching staff at LYC!
“I began practicing yoga ten years ago and it was an act of self-love that I fell in love with. To me everything is yoga. Whether it’s a fierce class where you’re sweating and building strength or the decision to take a nap and be kind to your self – it’s all yoga. As I fell more in love with this beautiful practice I wanted to deepen my knowledge. I completed my 200 hour training at Frog Pond Yoga Center in 2018 and have been teaching since. I’ve had the opportunity to travel to Australia and live on a yoga retreat center for two months, where I also built a stronger connection and understanding of my practice. I continue to explore the unique realms of Yoga by attending workshops and classes and look forward to completing my 300 hour YTT. I love to make friends, laugh often, and spend as much time as possible with my dog and cat.”

New Classes:
Breath & Body Connection with Cara
Tuesdays 9:30am starting February 4th (no class February 18th)
A slow paced practice that will allow the opportunity to quiet the mind, connect deeply to the breath, and then move the body. This class will have a strong focus on the foundations, taking time to pause in the poses and experience them. We will explore what muscles support the poses and become more familiar with the natural habits of our bodies. By taking the time to pause, breathe, and reflect we will strengthen the body and mind, alleviate stress, and bring that strength and peace off the mat as well. This class is all levels friendly – great for beginners learning the poses and advanced practitioners who want to explore them more deeply.

Meditating with Movement with Cara
Wednesdays 5:00pm starting February 12th (no class February 19th) 
In this practice we will focus strongly on the breath. We begin warming up and becoming comfortable with the poses, movement, and our own bodies. After finding our alignment we will begin to increase the pace allowing the practice to become a moving meditation. The vinyasa becomes an opportunity to allow the movement to shadow the breath, drawing the mind back to the present moment again and again. I strive to build an atmosphere where everyone can be as human, real, and “flawed” as they need to be. We aren’t striving for the perfect pose but a place to share our sweat, energy, and laughter with one another all while we cultivate a quiet mind and stronger body.


Schedule change:
Invigorate & Reflect with Jenn L will be moving from Saturdays to Wednesdays at 9:30am

Invigorate & Reflect with Jenn L.
Wednesdays 9:30am
This class is for anyone that is looking to get into that flow state right away by working on core strength with a dynamic yoga sequence followed by balancing and flexibility postures and ending with a long Savasana (meditation) to fully recharge for the rest of the day.
