Class Descriptions

Drop-in Classes :

Deep Flow Vinyasa: Our signature mixed-levels vinyasa classes move in a continuous flow with a focus on improving balance, alignment and posture. These carefully sequenced classes, linking breath to movement, are appropriate for beginners as well as more advanced students. Each class combines dynamic breath work, movement, and deep holds while in postures. Students  will gain flexibility, as well as tone the whole body and build core strength. You will leave feeling rejuvenated and energized, with an overall sense of well-being. Classes with  Robyn will allow students to deepen and challenge their practice by exploring new ways to open the body and wake up the mind. We will also practice pranayama in some of these classes, many of which are themed (hips, twisting, backbending, etc.) Each class is different so come explore with us!

Hatha: Traditonal Hatha yoga classes include standing and seated postures appropriate for all levels. Great for beginners, Hatha classes will help tone, stretch, and strengthen the body and mind. You will leave feeling calm and relaxed.

Candlelight Flow: These classes will sometimes include both a vinyasa practice and restorative/yin postures. Candlelight and calming music helps de-stress the body and mind while the yoga postures release stress and toxins. The perfect way to relax into the evening! 

Community Yoga: Taught by Breathe Joy Yoga teacher training students and recent graduates, these Hatha flow classes are a great way to practice yoga on a budget! Students of all levels -- beginners too -- are welcome! The cost is $8 drop in (we ask that you pay with exact change, cash only). Students with class cards and Unlimited passes are welcome to attend.

Stretch & Release (aka Yoga for Athletes):
This class series is specifically designed for those wanting a deeper stretch class (including a lot of work to release the hamstrings and hips) to compliment their other physical exercise/sports. This is also a great yoga option for beginners who would like a slower paced class with deep posture holds versus a vinyasa flow class. Come prepared to stretch and work on yogic breathing techniques to deepen focus and awareness. Join us!

Prenatal Yoga*:

CURRENT: July 8-Aug. 5

Cost: $75. This series is by preregistration only. and we must receive session payment by July 1 to ensure enough enrollment to run the series.  This class is specifically designed for women preparing to give birth. Women who have recently given birth are also welcome to attend. Classes will include stretching, breath work and traditional Hatha yoga postures modified for the pregnant body. Our teacher, Michelle Connelly, is an obstetrics nurse, childbirth educator and certified Hatha yoga instructor (see bio). Come to classes prepared to stretch, breathe, de-stress, have fun. Also come armed with childbirth questions for Michelle! Please call the studio to sign up OR send an email to breathejoyyoga@gmail.com and pay online below.  Please note: there are no makeups, refunds or credits for this class series.

Yoga Basics (AKA Yoga 101)*:
Mondays 6-7 pm pm
CURRENT SESSION: July 19-Aug. 23 (six weeks)
Cost: $72
This class is designed for those who want to learn the "basics" of yoga asanas. This class works on building poses from the ground up, strengthening and stretching all of the major muscle groups. Start where you are! Beginners and never-everers are welcome. This class is also great for those recovering from injuries. 

*Due to the small numbers for each of these class series and the high level of personal instruction, there are no makeups available.  For optimum flexibility, we also offer drop-in classes so please choose your classes wisely.


The following classes are offered at various times throughout the year:


Yoga Core Energy Flow: Designed to lift your energy, this vinyasa flow class for mixed-levels will combine traditional yoga asanas with core postures to tone and stretch major muscle groups, strengthen the core, generate internal heat, and lead to a sense of balance and inner peace.

Gentle Integral: In this class, we will start with centering and breathing techniques and then move on to work on yoga asanas. Borrowing from the Iyengar tradition, postures are broken down and taught with a lot of instruction, focusing on alignment, precision, and form. Classes incorporate mindfulness and a bit of yoga philosophy as well -- a great option for those recovering from illness or injury or simply those seeking a more gentle practice. Come find your center!

Deepen Your Practice All Levels: In this class, appropriate for mixed levels, we will delve deepen into our asana practice. Depending on the energy of the group, we will also practice pranayama and kriyas. Taking input from students, we will incorporate poses you would like to work on, sometimes breaking them down so you may finally "get" that pose or discover a new way to come in and out of a pose gracefully! Come join us for this new class!

If you are not sure which class is right for you, please call 781-784-4848.
