How do you maintain inner stillness when your physical practice demands intense focus and strength? Entering the breath oasis hatha yoga class allows you to explore this delicate balance, using conscious respiration as an anchor through a series of dynamic postures.
Led by experienced instructor Marla Waal, this 60-minute session is designed as an intermediate hatha yoga flow that bridges physical alignment with mental clarity. This level 2 hatha yoga class offers a balanced challenge, integrating deep breathing and flexibility yoga to guide you through a structured progression of backbends, forward bends, and arm balances.

Utilizing hatha yoga for flexibility, you will learn to create space in both body and mind, using an optional block to support your alignment throughout the practice.

In this practice, Marla Waal hatha yoga principles guide you to observe the subtle shifts in your energy as you transition between active backbends and grounding forward folds. By maintaining a steady, conscious breath, you cultivate the resilience needed to approach advanced postures like arm balances with a calm and focused mind. This class provides the space to slow down, tune in, and honor your body's unique intelligence.
