Description

Get a fresh start to the New Year with pilates flow and vinyasa yoga at the VORTEX. Challenge the body and mind in a beginner friendly atmosphere. No equipment necessary: we generate heat within through mindful movement and fluid breath. Prepare to detoxify, energize, and build community based on health and well-being. Students should bring a mat and dress to move.

PILATES FLOW
Pilates flow tones and strengthens the core muscles to promote a lean body and a long spine. By coordinating breath, motion, and muscle control, we develop postural awareness and offer healthy challenges to the body and mind. Expect to breathe deep and sweat. Suitable for all fitness levels.

VINYASA YOGA
Learn to enjoy letting your breath fluidly lead your movement while maintaining strength and control. Vinyasa yoga incorporates innovative sequences with a focus on mindfulness, movement, and relaxation, allowing you to explore all aspects of yoga while achieving your fitness goals and having fun in the process.

She draws on many yogic traditions including restorative, hatha, ashtanga, and vinyasa flow, as well as pilates, modern dance, and contact improvisation. She strives to create moving meditation that restores energetic balance to the body and mind. She incorporates pranayama, bandha, and also teaches in Spanish. She’s studied hatha yoga in the Bihar tradition and is certified through Yoga Vidya Gurukul in Nashik, India.

SARAH STUDEBAKER
Sarah Studebaker first discovered yoga as purely a form of exercise but began to cherish the calm, blissful feeling that it brought to the rest of her life. Through the creation of her own practice, she developed a goal to teach yoga as a way of sharing the joy that she found in this art. She is now a Registered Yoga Teacher and Certified Holistic Health Coach, certified by schools that promote a wide variety of techniques, allowing for her to customize classes to the student’s needs.
