Class Levels
(Styles of Yoga)

öm times strives to provide a yoga class for every body!
If you have any questions as to what level class you think you should be in, please speak to the instructor at the beginning of the class, he or she will be happy to assist you.

Beginning Level – These classes contain a class sequence that teaches and refreshes the basics of the individual practice. This class is a safe place to begin or deepen your understanding of the benefits of cultivating strength and flexibility. These classes are recommended for those who are new to yoga or returning after a break from the practice.

Gentle Level – These classes are taught from a softer space of relaxation and sweetness. These classes are perfect for those who are newer to the practice, recovering from injury, or are looking for a more gentle way to move.

Contemplative Level – These classes involve little or no asana (postures). These are lecture and discussion courses. It is recommended that you bring a journal, pen, and mediation cushion to these classes.

Prenatal – These classes are taught to the level of the mommies-to-be who participate. These sweet classes are highly specialized to cultivate strength, flexibility, serenity and joy in the minds, hearts, and bodies of expectant mothers. As with all forms of exercise, please, check with your doctor before engaging in any physical activity.

Open Level These classes are open to anyone and any level. We can all come play! The instructors of these classes excel at teaching to a group of students with a mixed level of practice. Modifications will be given for more beginning variations of postures as well as invitations, to those more experienced, for more intermediate or advanced forms. Each instructor holds a safe space for each student to uniquely explore the edge of their practice with challenge and consideration for the form, alignment, breath, and balance of yoga as a practice of personal and collective growth. All levels of practice are honored and a full selection of props is available for student use. It is recommended that you bring your smile.

Expanding / Intermediate Level – This intermediate level class builds upon a student’s collected knowledge and expands the alignment, form, and breath of a wide variety of unique and creative postures and sequences. These classes are recommended for those who are interested in deepening an asana practice. Prerequisites are and ability to kick up into head and handstand at the wall and a working practice of full wheel (backbend).

Advanced Level – At om time, we are committed to providing the highest caliber practice for all levels. Each advanced practice is taught or guided by highly practiced and educated instructors. These classes are geared towards those with a sound and consistent practice. Prerequisites are and ability to kick up into head and handstand at the wall, a willingness and desire to work off of the wall, and a working practice of full wheel (backbend).

Tiger / Tigress Level – This advanced, insanely fun RADICAL EXPANSION class is a must attend if you have a wild sense of humor and desire to explore the deepest forms of postures. A working knowledge of Anusara’s five principles of alignment is recommended. Handstands in the middle of the room are a staple (with a spot, of course), arm balances, deep backbends, joy and laughter abound with the spirit of radical expansion. This is a led practice – not an instructed class.

Advanced Level – At om time, we are committed to providing the highest caliber practice for all levels. Each advanced practice is taught or guided by highly practiced and educated instructors. These classes are geared towards those with a sound and consistent practice.
