Classes

Purple Yoga Studio offers classes for all levels of students. Our goal is to help you realize your full potential whether you’re trying yoga for the first time or you’ve been practicing for years. The classes are physically challenging, so it's important to work at your own pace and be patient. Remember, progress comes with practice. Our classes include the vinyasa form, which integrates breath with movement. This dynamic flowing style is a powerful system that utilizes asana (postures), pranayama (breath), and meditation that will leave you feeling revitalized and relaxed.
