Yin Yoga with Jose Lopez

11/3/2025

WEDNESDAYS NOVEMBER 12 & 26
9:00 - 10:00 AM

This Yin Yoga class invites us to take a pause from our active daily lives, to slow down and make each movement deliberate, paying attention to what we notice in our bodies and minds. Turning our focus inward, our movements become a meditation, our engaged awareness allowing greater depth in our practice. Jose creates an intentional space to support us to step out of our usual rhythm and surrender into a different flow. Yin Yoga can benefit everyone; it offers a special sort of medicine to calm stress and anxieties, and complements more intense athletics, building strength in the deep and connective tissues. In this class Jose offers occasional hands-on adjustments; communicate if you’d prefer not to receive them. No props are necessary; bring your mat and water.

Vinyasa Flow with Jose Lopez

11/1/2025

FRIDAYS
NOVEMBER 7, 14, 21, 28
9:00 - 10:00 AM

For anyone who needs a break from being in the mind, this Vinyasa Flow practice will bring you back into the body and restore a better mind-body balance. We begin with a meditation to center ourselves in the space, leaving behind thoughts of our experiences before class or what’s to come after. By observing the breath we become aware of the physical body, mental body, and emotional body. After dedicating this time in stillness to return fully to ourselves, we continue our meditation in dynamic movement. We will focus on grounding into the earth’s energy to support us in moving freely, finding our own flow, and feeling how we can experience relaxation in movement. The postures and sequences draw on the long tradition of Hatha Yoga and combine contemporary elements of Vinyasa Flow. To close our practice we return to stillness allowing our bodies to integrate our experience with deep relaxation in Savasana.

We’ve got a couple great events lined up this month. On the 15th Vanessa will be delving into yoga philosophy paired with practice opening the hips as we undertake inversions, and on the 23rd Jose is hosting a sound bath to nourish the brain and body with peaceful vibrations during the inward energies of the new moon. Jose will keep up his regular Friday morning Vinyasa classes, and he’s added a couple Yin Yoga classes on Wednesdays the 12th and 26th.

November Schedule Coco Yoga & Wellness

Workshop: Hip-Opening, Inversions, & Yoga Philosophy

10/16/2025

WITH VANESSA DA SILVA
SATURDAY NOVEMBER 15th
9:00 AM - 12:30 PM

In the first half of this workshop 9:00 - 10:30, Vanessa will lead Asana practice guiding us through hip-opening and arm-balancing sequences building up to inversions as peak poses. She will emphasize where to bring our awareness as we advance, illuminating the subtleties of inversions. Our hips help us to feel our center of gravity when our bodies are in the air, which is essential to find balance. While opening the hips happens with consistent practice over time, we should feel grateful for wherever we are in the process and continue to practice with dedication free from attachment to an outcome. Working with arm-balances builds our strength and develops our focus creating the steadiness required to find bliss in inversions. Vanessa will offer cues to engage our entire body strength rather than trying to carry these balances with only the shoulders and wrists. She offers a safe and accessible approach for practitioners of all levels and will teach modifications to accommodate any injuries or body cycles.

After a time for break, we will reconvene from 11:00 to 12:30 to explore Yoga Philosophy starting with the Yamas and Niyamas. Traditionally students began to practice Yoga with the Yamas and Niyamas, the ethical guidelines for daily practice, and were required to develop a good foundation applying these principles before they would receive instruction with Asana. This has changed in modern times with the commercialization of Yoga, the emphasis shifting to physical practice and only students with dedication later finding their way to philosophy. This discussion will explain the significance of these ten precepts and offer insights on how we may apply them in our daily lives. We’ll talk as well about Karma Yoga with the Bavaghad Gita, a beautiful book from the Mahabharata, a sacred Sanskrit scripture which elucidates the tenants of Yogic philosophy. Set on the battlefield between the Pandava and Kauranva, two groups from the same family lineage, the story centers a dialogue between Pandava prince Arjuna, who feels doubt and confusion overwhelmed by his duty to flight in the war, and Lord Krishna, who guides Arjuna to realize his duty, or Dharma, and stop suffering.

Restorative Yoga with Taylor

THURSDAYS 5:00 - 6:00 PM
APRIL 3, 10, 17, 24

Wind down from your day with this restorative practice that may reduce stress, enhance flexibility, and improve sleep. Taylor incorporates the earth element as she guides students through seated and reclined postures that help to ground our energies and release stresses and tensions. Although this class is slow and gentle, it may challenge us to find ease in any discomfort in the longer holds. The breath shows the way through, and Taylor includes some pranayama technique to help develop this focus. This practice is appropriate for all students, but consider having extra props for comfort if you have sensitive knees, and an eye-cover to support deep relaxation in the extended savasana with guided meditation.
