IYENGAR YOGA
Though it may sound odd and slightly complicated, Iyengar Yoga is great for beginners and it’s our passion at Austin Yoga Tree. Our Iyengar teachers help beginners and seasoned yoga students understand each pose, or asana, by providing clear verbal instruction with a focus on proper alignment. You’ll not only practice yoga but also build a foundational understanding of each pose. For this reason, you’ll often find AYT teachers in class right beside you enjoying their own personal practice. Some of the poses you can expect in an Iyengar class are Mountain Pose, Triangle Pose, and Downward-Facing Dog (or Down Dog). Props are your friends in this class - blocks, bolsters, blankets, and even the Yoga Wall come in handy.
In the words of B.K.S. Iyengar: "It is through the alignment of the body that I discovered the alignment of my mind, self, and intelligence." *Beginners and all levels welcome.

YOGA WALL
Based on the Iyengar method, Yoga Wall classes are great for beginners and advanced yogis. This vertical tool creates space for overcoming obstacles to achieving proper alignment and gaining a deeper understanding of yoga poses. Your AYT instructor will guide you through how to make friends with the Yoga Wall using straps and harness attachments. It will truly be your biggest support allowing you to use gravity to your advantage.
If you’re the tiniest bit curious, just come and play! Little known fact...The AYT Yoga Wall is a rare find. It’s only one of two in all of Austin. *Beginners and all levels welcome.

Lunchtime YOGA
There are many benefits to a lunchtime yoga practice:
1 - It can help increase mental clarity
2 - It can help improve your mood
3 - In can help enhance productivity
4 - It's a great stress reliever
5 - It's a great opportunity to get in some positive social interaction
This Lunchtime Yoga class blends the structure and integrity of Iyengar’s principles of alignment with a more somatic, mind/body approach, allowing for an organic and playful exploration of the poses. Asana (posture), Pranayama (breathing), and Dharana (concentration) are integrated into a balanced workout designed to strengthen and replenish the body, mind, and spirit.

HATHA YOGA
Experience traditional yoga postures with a detailed, systematic approach to bring your mind and body awareness into alignment with your self. Sort of a welcome home for the body and mind. You'll notice your outer layers moving deeper inward, your inner layers expanding outward. And a general sense of bliss may follow. *Beginners and all levels welcome.
VINYASA WITH WEIGHTS
Get your heart, muscles and mind ready for this fun and energizing class incorporating light weights and fitness into a foundational yoga flow. You can expect to build strength, tone, create stamina, and flexibility in all major muscle groups. The class ends with a traditional savasana to balance out your efforts and get you ready for the rest of your day. It's the perfect all in one mind, body, spirit workout!
VINYASA FLOW
Let’s get moving...and get a little sweat worked up too. Our Vinyasa Flow classes focus on uniting your body with your breath as you flow from one pose to the next. Linking the breath with the physical postures is where the magic happens! Students are often instructed to inhale with one pose and exhale with the next, moving (or flowing!) through a sequence of poses back-to-back. These sequences will help increase flexibility, strengthen and tone muscles, and allow you to tune into your body’s own rhythm. Our creative and dynamic Vinyasa classes move at a slightly faster pace than some of Hatha or Iyengar styles. *Beginners and all levels welcome.
CANDLELIGHT RESTORATIVE & SOUND
Restorative yoga class is like going to the gas station to fill up your tank (or plugging in, if you have an electric car). If you keep going and going and going, you eventually are running on fumes! Restorative Yoga fills you back up, so you can get to where you are going in peace. Exchange your worries for yoga props (blankets and bolsters) at the door. These props will be used to support your body comfortably into extended, relaxation-inducing poses. And to reward you for taking this time out for yourself, a mellow mix of recorded and live healing sound via singing bowls will accompany your experience. This is the ultimate self-care class. *Beginners and all levels welcome.

Prerequisite: One year of yoga experience
Our Intermediate Yoga class is designed to help build strength, cultivate focus and teach you how to intelligently move through and safely explore both level 1 and some level 2 poses. Students seeking to deepen their practice and knowledge of asanas will enjoy this experience.
