High intensity, low impact, interval training class using pilates principles. A fun Tabata style (HIIT, 8 rounds of 20 seconds each with 10 seconds of rest) workout building body awareness, core strength, and overall conditioning. The outline of the class is similar each time, but the exercises and sequence will vary from class to class. The class is performed with fast-paced music making it fun, exciting and energizing. A beautiful complement to your yoga practice. All levels are welcome.

A dynamic, high-intensity class that combines vinyasa flow with strength training (using freeweights) and plyometrics for an empowering full-body workout. It is a challenging class designed to strengthen all aspects of a student’s practice: mind, body, and spirit. Class involves sets of cardio, which may contain high impact moves (like jump squats) but a low impact variation is always available. Set to energizing music, this class will boost your metabolism while pushing your endurance, strength, and flexibility to new heights. An excellent complement to your regular yoga practice. There are two variations of this class: one is in our Treehouse studio set to 82F and generally has less cardio and more interval sets with weights. The other is in the Radiant Room with infrared heat at 95F where you will find cardio, yoga flow and interval sets with weights.

Our vinyasa classes are wide-ranging, incorporating the many layers of yoga through different styles of movement. Each teacher brings a vastly different experience to the class. We encourage you to try each teacher’s class. Vinyasa translates as “flowing with breath” or “to place in a special way.” This class offers an opportunity to consciously link the movement of the body with the movement of the breath creating a steady internal rhythm. These classes offer a variety of poses and balanced sequencing each time as you link dynamic moves together to build strength, flexibility, and an inner calm.

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced practice that focuses on holding each individual pose for long periods of time. This gives you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and body. In the longer holds the body will respond to a slow steady load allowing a subtle release that takes you deeper into the pose. The depth is a response of the tissues lengthening, hydrating, and becoming more pliable. Lengthening and strengthening of the connective tissue around the joints, improving flexibility, and range of motion – mainly in the knees, pelvis, sacrum, and spine. By practicing these deep poses you will be opening any blockages and releasing energy flow.

Yoga nidra is often referred to as “yoga sleep” – you will enter a threshold state between sleep and wakefulness. Learn to relax consciously! A state of relaxation is reached by turning inwards, away from our outer experiences and distractions. If the consciousness can be separated from external awareness and from sleep, it becomes very powerful and can be applied in many ways – like developing memory, increasing knowledge and creativity, even transforming one’s nature. It is said that a single hour of yoga nidra is as restful as four hours of conventional sleep. You can expect to take class laying down on your mat with the help of props to keep you comfortable, ideally remaining still for the duration of the meditation. You get to lie down and follow instructions mentally – this practice has the capacity of penetrating into the depths of the human mind.

Yogalates is a combination of yoga and Pilates. Class will warm up and cool down like a traditional vinyasa class with Pilates based movement and breathing in between. Expect to work hard as the focus will be on stabilizing and strengthening the core. Bring a mat, towel and water. Class may include the use of Pilates rings, blocks, light weights and resistance bands. Yogalates is great for students who love a high energy class.

*Offered June through September*

Slow Flow Yoga at Miller’s Landing Park: Take your yoga practice outside with this grounding 60-minute Slow Flow yoga class in the beautiful natural setting of Miller’s Landing on the Deschutes River. This all-levels vinyasa class invites you to slow down, move with intention, and reconnect with your breath, your body, and the elements of the natural world around you. Practicing outdoors offers a unique opportunity to tune in to the rhythm of nature—the warmth of the sun, the breeze on your skin, the sounds of birds and rustling leaves—and bring a deeper sense of mindfulness to your mat.

What to Expect: This class is designed to be practiced without props and is open to all experience levels. Just bring your yoga mat, a water bottle, and comfortable clothing. A mat towel is also helpful if you’d like extra padding or protection under your mat. We’ll meet by the restrooms at the park and find a shady spot to practice: 55 NW Riverside Blvd. ***In case of bad weather (rain, smoke, extreme temps), class will be moved indoors to the Treehouse studio at BYC and you’ll be notified by 9 am the day of class.

Take your practice beyond the flow in this workshop-style Yoga Lab designed for curious students who want to build strength, confidence, and understanding. Each class focuses on a specific posture or family of postures—such as arm balances, inversions, backbends, or other foundational poses and movements—and breaks them down step by step. It is designed to develop your yoga practice beyond a beginning understanding.

Through posture progressions, drills, and targeted mobility and strength work, you’ll learn the “why” behind each movement and develop the skills needed to practice safely and with confidence. Rather than simply following along, you’ll have the opportunity to practice alongside your teacher, observe demonstrations, ask questions, receive personalized guidance, and refine your technique in real time.

Unlike a traditional Vinyasa or Hatha class, Yoga Lab takes a workshop-style approach, allowing time to pause, experiment, and explore. Each session features a different focus, giving you the chance to deepen your understanding of yoga one posture at a time while building the strength, mobility, and body awareness to support your practice, and get upside down!

Whether you’re working toward your first crow pose, building confidence with headstands, or refining a posture you’ve practiced for years, Yoga Lab offers a supportive, encouraging environment where curiosity is celebrated, progress is personal, and learning happens through exploration.
