HEATED CLASSES

KINSHIP HOT: Explore a heated hatha vinyasa practice featuring each teacher’s unique approach to sequencing. Build strength, flexibility, balance, mindful breathing, focus, and inner peace through a mix of standing, balancing, seated, and supine postures. Each class includes a collective Om and concludes with a restful, reflective savasana.

Quiet Ujjayi breathing is the foundation of our practice unless otherwise cued by the teacher. It helps to create a shared rhythm in practice, supports inward focus and prevents unnecessary distractions. Teachers provide clear guidance for students follow breath cues and develop this essential skill. To prevent confusion for others, students are guided to reserve audible sighs, sounds and other vocalizations for teacher-led moments.

To further honor this tradition and practice with integrity, we kindly ask students to leave mobile devices outside the room, and disable and silence any vibrant lights or notifications on watches.

Room temperature ranges from 90°-102°

KINSHIP WARM 85º: A cozy room for the colder months, not quite as hot as our Kinship Hot classes, and not too cold to practice. This is a vinyasa flow-based class. Students will move through a variety of asanas timing breath to movement. With extended posture holds woven between vinyasas. Each thoughtfully created sequence will vary from teacher to teacher. You will move through dynamic standing and balancing postures, strengthening and opening your entire body. 

POWER HOUR: Get ready to sweat. This hot class is an invigorating practice for body, mind and soul. Ease into your practice with a sequence of gently warming postures and breath-awakening guidance. As your body opens, we'll gracefully pick up the pace to charge you up and mindfully challenge your abilities.

YINSHIP: You feeling a little spent? Work, play, or just life catching up to you? Is the world spinning just a bit? Well, this might be your kind of remedy! Hop, skip, crawl, saunter your way over to your yoga mat at Kinship. In this practice you won't be moving far from the ground, or sweating a drop.

KINSHIP COOL: A non-heated, breath-led vinyasa practice for those who want the movement, strength, and meditative focus of Kinship without the infrared heat. Move through thoughtfully created sequences of dynamic standing postures, balancing poses, strength-building movement, and opportunities for stillness—all at a comfortable room temperature.

Ujjayi is the foundational breath practice of Kinship Cool and is encouraged throughout class unless another breathing technique is intentionally cued by the teacher. Breath and movement are linked to cultivate concentration, steadiness, and an inward-focused practice.

We practice together in a shared meditative environment. Students are encouraged to follow the teacher’s breath cues and allow audible releases, sighs, and other collective breathwork to arise when cued, preserving one clear voice of guidance and the rhythm of the room.

Each teacher brings their own creativity, sequencing, and experience, so every class will have its own character. Within that individuality, Kinship Cool maintains a consistent container of intentional breath, mindful movement, focused awareness, and respect for the shared practice.

Strengthen your body, find steadiness in your breath, and create space in your mind—without the heat.

ALIGN & FLOW 75°: Build strength, flexibility, balance and deeper awareness of alignment! This class is held in a moderate temperature, and each teacher will bring their unique expertise to the subject of alignment. All the elements you love in a typical Kinship class, and more - minus the heat!

YOGA SIN LIMITES - BILINGUAL & YOGA EN ESPAÑOL: Clases bilingüe en Español e Inglés dirigida por Araceli. All are welcome. It doesn't matter what language you speak! Most of these classes are donation based. Give what you can comfortably give.

BREATHWORK - PRANAYAMA: A combination of kundalini kriyas and active forms of breathwork, this class is designed to address the energetic and subtle layers of the Self. Breath changes our internal atmosphere, clears our energy channels, and helps to improve neuroplasticity in the brain. By increasing our mental resonance and working on more subtle layers, we are able to work through more deeply rooted patterns or behaviors which ultimately strengthens our magnetic field. Come ready to put in intentional effort into shifting your self-paradigm.

MEDITATION AND BREATHWORK: A guided meditation class with breathing techniques, relaxation cues, and beautiful mantra. A perfect way to create space for the mind to quiet, relax, and find bliss.

This class opens with pranayama and mindfulness practices designed to drop you deeper into your body before you begin your asana practice. Gently cultivate strength and flexibility and finish with a grounding meditation and deep savasana! This practice is great for sore muscles and recovery times as well as anyone looking to slow down and realign with themselves. Open to beginners!

AERIAL FITNESS: Fly into strength and challenge yourself to a new level of fitness. This fun and challenging class will push your limits and take you to new heights.

*No yoga mat needed, this class will be seated using bolsters, blankets and blocks. 

*Chairs are not provided, if you bring your own please bring a small carpet for under your chair to prevent damaging the floors.

YIN & SOUND MEDITATION: Enjoy a 60 min yin yoga practice, with a sound healing savasana. In this class, expect a very slow pace. You will hold floor postures 2-5 mins or longer. Open your hips, back, shoulders, legs and arms in this deeply relaxing practice. Use props to make your postures extra comfortable. 

YIN + HEALING COLLECTIVE: Kinship's exceptional  Yin/restorative format, integrated with a curated group of established and emerging body, energy, sound, and body workers. Feel the healing vibrations build throughout the class while tuning in to your own deepening stillness, through this transformative class.  A great one to share with a soon to be blown-away friend! 

Please note: Class formally ends at 5:35pm. We welcome you to take the remaining 10 minutes in our garden or lobby for reflection and/or community engagement.

CALISTHENICS: Strength, flexibility and endurance training using your own body weight as resistance. “Calisthenics” comes from the Greek kallos (beauty) and sthenos (strength). We will utilize a wide variety of strong postures without the need for weights. Over time, strength training and diversifying movement prepares our bodies for unexpected falls, missteps, or potential injury, providing us more ease and longevity in our bodies.

We will move through a brief, breath-focused warm up into a series of invigorating full body calisthenics exercises, and close with a nourishing cool down. Expect a wide variety of push ups, planks, lunges, leg lifts, squats, hollow body holds, and (much) more. You’ll leave with the tools to continue utilizing calisthenics on your own.
