Vinyasa Yoga is creative, fluid, challenging and fun. The teacher improvises dynamic sequences drawn from the infinite possibilities of yoga postures. Vinyasa, literally translated as "placing (the limbs) in motion", describes yoga practice that synchronizes breath and movement.

Vinyasa combined with ujjayi (a breathing technique) and bandhas (internal "locks") helps to focus the mind, build strength and stamina, and create heat to improve flexibility, reduce fat and eliminate toxins.

Saturday morning's class with Cathy Louise typically begins with a variety of sun salutations, progresses through a range of asanas, including arm balances, backbends and inversions, and ends with a deep relaxation. Because the class blends intermediate and some advanced poses at a vigorous pace, it is not suitable for beginners.
