Kundalini Yoga:
This style of Yoga is called the Yoga of awareness. It is designed to awaken our potential that is dormant inside of us (Kundalini energy). This is done through the form of Kriya (specific set of actions that have an expected outcome), these kriyas contain pranayama (breath work), yoga postures, mudras (hand gestures or positions that change the flow of the energy), mantras (repetition of sacred sounds). Some Kriyas are very vigorous and some are more relaxed and meditative. A traditional Kundalini class will contain a Kriya or Yoga set, deep relaxation with or without gong, meditation, and chanting. Every class is different and you never know what will come next. Expect to feel uplifted and energized!
Tuesdays 7- 8:15 am – March 11th – April 15th – Zen+ Clinic Dieppe, NB

Yin & Yoga Nidra:
in this class we practice Yin Yoga which is a slower-paced, meditative style of yoga. The poses are mostly seated or reclining and are held for three to five minutes with the use of some support. This style targets the connective tissues rather than focusing on the muscles. We then end the class with Yoga Nidra which is known as yogic sleep. Yoga nidra is a state between sleeping and waking. The body is completely relaxed and the practitioner turns the awareness inward by listening to a set of instructions; much like a guided meditation.Yoga nidra practice results in deep relaxation and expands the individual’s self-awareness.
Stay tuned for upcoming dates.
Slow Flow & Nidra

The physical practice is followed by Yoga Nidra which is known as yogic sleep. Yoga nidra is a state between sleeping and waking. The body is completely relaxed and the practitioner turns the awareness inward by listening to a set of instructions; much like a guided meditation.Yoga nidra practice results in deep relaxation and expands the individual’s self-awareness. It is said that 1 hour of yoga nidra equals 4 hours of sleep!
