Yoga Seva Studios - Yoga Classes in Crystal Lake, IL

Preparation:
All yoga props will be supplied by the studio except your mat. You can purchase a high quality mat at the studio or if you choose to purchase elsewhere, please observe the quality and length of at least 68"

Please wear comfortable, preferably cotton, clothing with an elastic waist. Please dress in layers as the temperature can fluctuate with the high ceilings.

Gentle: Slower pace stretches, postures, modifications recommended to provide a positive experience. A gradual improvement to general health, flexibility, and increased breathing capacity occur soon after starting the practice.

Beginning: Begin your training with a balanced program, introducing all of the essentials of a Hatha Yoga practice. Learn to improve your health and energy level as well as how to use your breath naturally and experience its calming effects on the nervous system.

Open Yoga: Gentle Stretches, Invigorating Yoga, Breathwork, Relax.

Multi-Level: This class mixes levels for beginning and continuing students. Variations of the postures are introduced as you gain new awareness of body, breath, and mind. The gradual development of the postures leads to increased strength, flexibility, and endurance. Some yoga experience preferred.

Level 1: At this level you need to be aware of your personal intensity level and are encouraged to advance at your own pace, strengthen problem areas, hold the poses longer and deepen your experience with compassion (non-harming).

Level 2: Yoga keeps the mind and body young. Mr. Iyengar says “yoga is the art of living”. It is a method where you transcend your limitations. If you are ready to be challenged and willing to dedicate a portion of your personal time to working with asana to deepen your understanding and tap into your full potential, then this is the class for you.
Asanas and Pranayama open doors to awareness—emotionally, physiologically, intellectually, and spiritually.

The only requirement is that you establish a dedicated practice.

I will guide you through the next phase of your journey with same respect for individual preferences and adaptions that have been successful during my classes for the past 11years. We will use Podcasts that insure a safe well sequenced home study.

Many dedicated students that have studied with Yoga Seva teachers will benefit from this challenge to grow.

Pilates: Focus is Core Based with Precise Movement.

Meditation: The purpose of this meditation class is to give guidance on how to see clearly into the nature of the mind. Both beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome.

Special Needs: Students who have a condition which inhibits full participation in a general class. Please call to see if this is right for you.
