YOGA CLASSES

The biggest misconception about yoga is that you have to be able to fold into a pretzel before you can roll out your mat.

At Monterey Bay Moves, we believe that yoga is for everyBODY. We teach to your real body and the heart that lives in it.

In our 55-minute yoga class offerings, we provide the space you need to practice yoga postures (asana) and breath work (pranayama) that works to increase your physical, emotional and mental flexibility. We hope you leave every class feeling more connected to yourself and your breathe. The yoga classes offered through Monterey Bay Moves are All Levels, offering modifications and advancements for all practitioners.

We can’t wait to meet you on the mat!

Yoga Flow

In this all-levels flow expect to find strength and fluidity through a strong, breath-driven flow. If you are looking for more: focus, alignment, stamina, and/or flexibility – this is the class for you. Normally, classes feature an upbeat soundtrack, challenging sequences (with provided modifications), heartfelt messages, and a sense of humor to inspire us as we move off of our mat and into the world.

Restorative Yoga

Restorative Yoga Flow

This all-levels flow is very similar to the Yoga Flow. The only difference is we will use more supportive props for a Restorative yoga posture at the end of class for 5-8 minutes before the final resting pose to really stretch the body’s fascia.

Yoga Sculpt

Yoga Sculpt is a high-intensity, dynamic yoga practice that incorporates resistance interval training and cardiovascular exercise into traditional yoga sequences. For optimal results, make sure you have small weights (1,2,3 lbs) and a loop band for this class.

Private Yoga

Private Yoga 

Incorporating a private yoga practice to your routine is the ultimate act of self care. Engage your mind, body and soul in a one-on-one session focused on the style, theme and specific approach of your choice. Customize your 60 or 90-minute yoga session with a quick phone or email consultation.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST CLASS:

Get to know the community. The Monterey Bay Moves community welcomes you! So feel free to introduce yourself to the students around you, and ask them any questions.

Talk to your teacher. Please be sure to introduce yourself to your teacher and tell them if you are new to yoga. They will want to know about any injuries, limitations, and/or pregnancies.

Know how class works. MBM offers props (blocks, straps and blankets) on-site to assist in your yoga practice. Class begins with a brief period of seated centering, then warm-up movements, and most build steadily to a peak pose or flow. Cooling down poses are followed by a reclining rest (savasana).

Honor your body. Always feel free to rest during practice; your teacher will never force or push you to stay in poses. You will build strength and endurance over time. Enjoy your practice, and always let us know how we can make your yoga experience more enjoyable!

CLIENT REVIEWS

 

I started taking Allison’s yoga classes (Restorative Yoga on Mondays and Yoga Flow on Wednesdays) a few weeks ago and they have been seriously so amazing! I’m definitely a beginner when it comes to yoga, so I was nervous going into the classes. But Allison does a great job at walking you through the poses and details what to do so clearly that I don’t even have to look up/check to see what she’s doing! She also does a great job at offering modifications for all poses for people with injuries or who want an easier option. It’s been four weeks and I already feel more flexible, more strong, more present in my body. Every class is different, challenging, and rewarding. I come out of each one more confident in myself (body, mind, and soul)! Monterey Bay Moves is the best and I highly recommend attending their classes!!

Allison’s yoga classes are amazing, as well! Each yoga class is a wonderful journey of harmony and peace!

“The yoga classes (well all the other classes too) are great! Allison and Angel have great teaching styles and I enjoy the use of aromatherapy and therapeutic adjustments during in person sessions. In light of the pandemic, classes have been made available online and they are both great at using their voices to guide you through flows when your have can’t necessarily be on the computer screen to feel the flow. The class times vary enough that I am able to fit 2-4 yoga sessions into my schedule each week!”

I started taking Allison’s yoga class to add as a part of my routine during quarantine, and it’s made such an impact in my life! I have not practiced in a few years and for the first time in many years, I feel present in my own body. It’s a 55-minute flow that surprisingly gives you quite the workout! It’s tough, but good and much needed. They have you in poses that are not your usual chill yoga poses, but such interesting poses myself and my roommate have not done before that make you stretch and tone parts of your body you were unaware of. I’m also practically falling asleep by the end because it’s so peaceful. I LOVE IT! I look forward to it every Monday and Wednesday!!! My body is thankful.
