Restorative Yoga at Greener Postures Yoga is a deeply relaxing practice designed to open the body passively and release tension. Using props like bolsters, blocks, blankets, and straps, poses are held for extended periods, allowing the force of gravity to gently ease the muscles and support the release of daily stress.

Ideal for all levels, Restorative Yoga is especially beneficial for those new to yoga or seeking a slower, meditative practice.

Experience the transformative power of Yin Yoga, a practice that blends science and spirit through stillness and passive long holds in floor poses. Yin strengthens, lengthens, and hydrates the connective tissues, including the bones, fascia, and joints—areas critical for maintaining mobility and flexibility as we age. These classes often include meditation, enhancing brain and immune health, reducing blood pressure, and fostering greater awareness and energy. As a perfect complement to dynamic flow classes, Yin Yoga works your body's "other half," offering balance and restoration. No experience is necessary, and props are provided to support your practice. Add Yin Yoga to your weekly routine to nurture your body, mind, and spirit.

Stretch & Mobility is a relaxing, restorative movement class that blends stretching, mindful movement, and self-massage to enhance flexibility, improve posture, and increase joint range of motion.

Each session includes a mix of dynamic and static stretches designed to move your joints through their full range of motion, encouraging better alignment and improved mobility. You'll use props such as blocks, straps, and bolsters for support and activation, and at times, massage balls for targeted myofascial release.

Whether you're an athlete recovering from training, someone with an aging body looking to maintain ease of movement, or a beginner exploring alignment and mobility, this class is adaptable and designed to meet you where you are.
