Zuda Yoga Class DescriptionsFind Your Inner Zuda...
Each of our classes offers you a chance to take a daily break and spend time with yourself—time to learn, to feel, to play. You’ll explore the dichotomy of finding ease in intensity and letting go to discover what you seek. Each class will challenge you, but not always in the way you think. Come find out why our students tell us they leave more connected, grounded and peaceful.
Groove - Follow the Yogi
Explore the roots of our Vinyasa practice through a special Follow the Yogi class. The teacher leads the class through (by modeling the poses as the class flows) his or her own morning practice. Have fun with Powerful Music, taught with Sanskrit woven in throughout the flow, this practice will challenge your concept of Vinyasa, bringing new and greater awareness to your personal practice and life. An excellent class for experienced students interested in deepening their practice.
Basics/Level 1
Perfect for all levels, each basics class follows a similar format. Class starts slowly, going over the elemental building blocks of the practice. As we describe the poses we teach how they may be modified to fit the way your body is in this moment. This gives everyone an equal chance to experience the benefits of the practice while making adjustments for her own needs.
Many beginning students choose this class for the slower pace and more detailed instruction for each pose.
Students who have been practicing for some time choose a basics class as they begin to transcend the physical practice and focus on breath and presence. Of course, sometimes you just want a slower pace and a basics class offers that.
Yoga is not hierarchical in nature, meaning there aren’t levels described in the Yoga Sutras or any other texts. It is equally challenging to become present in a basics class as it is an all levels.
Direction will always be provided for the poses the teacher offers the whole class. More advanced poses may be offered for advanced students who already know how to do them.
All Levels
Zuda’s signature class—vigorous, dynamic, flow-based yoga where variance and creativity are the norm. Each class differs from the last to help you find your edge.
- You will sweat
- You will be challenged
- You will have fun
This is the full expression of vinyasa as moving meditation. Linking breath with movement the practice become dancelike—an interplay of motion and stillness. Strength, flexibility, balance and cardio come into harmony. Described as “an awakening” the only way to truly understand is to do it.
We suggest you have a familiarity with Sun Salutations A & B before tackling an all levels class, or have previous experience.
Students of all levels of experience can practice together because everyone takes accountability for her own practice. Ahimsa, or the idea of doing no harm, beginning with you, is a central tenant
Karma Classes. Karma classes are our same, great Vinyasa-style classes, but we only accept donations for them. No class passes. Cash or checks made out to Happy Tails. Suggested donation amount is $5. All proceeds go to the Happy Tails Pet Sanctuary.
"Hanuman" Classes. There really is no such thing as a "Hanuman Class." We have two studios at our Midtown location, the Shiva Studio and the Hanuman Studio. Class styles in both are the same! If you have questions, or would like a tour of the Hanuman Studio, just ask our front desk staff next time you are in Midtown.
“We need Zuda because we need a place to let go of all the things that happen in the rest of our world and to feel good.” Zuda student
You play music? Music is offered in many of our classes to support, inspire and uplift you. For many, it is another way into presence.
May I care enough, to love enough to share enough to let others become what they can be.
