Gentle yoga
Therapeutic in nature. Moving at a perfectly slower pace you will be able to connect more deeply with every posture. Expect lots of relaxing deep stretches as well as meditative and breathing techniques. Stress and tension will simply melt away.
Gentle flow

The kriyas and meditations of kundalini yoga are specifically designed to generate energy and increase awareness. This practice begins and ends with mantra and has warm up exercises to prepare for the kriya, a series of postures, breath, and sound that work toward a specific outcome. Practicing kriyas initiates a sequence of physical and mental changes that affect the body, mind, and spirit simultaneously.
Ashtanga yoga
This is a hatha-based meditative practice that unites movement with breath, aimed at purification of the mind and body. Ashtanga vinyasa yoga is the source of most vinyasa, power and flow style yogas popular in the West today.
