Waikiki's only Sports-Yoga Studio
We offer daily Yoga, Sports-Yoga, Aerobics, and Massage Training classes.
Classes are led by Dennis B Miller. He brings a background in Butoh dance performance with the Iona Contemporary Dance Theatre and massage training to Hatha yoga. The result is a deliciously thereupitic series of laying down 'pose-motions', detailed body instruction, and a nice balance between having fun and broadly expanding your physical potential.
Classes develop and vary according to who shows up. It's generally an intermediate level class, but beginners are treated with kindness.
The indoor classes also use circus ropes, rings, thera balls, and balancing tubes. The Beach Yoga class is on the sand of waikiki beach in the shade of a Banyan tree. A very sandy class. Mats are provided. The Park Yoga class in Kapiolani Park is on the grass, under the expansive boughs of a large Banyan tree. Teacher training courses are available.
Normal Hatha yoga poses are terrific for making you use all of your body with each pose. Of course, each pose is different, so you get to use 'all of your body' in a balanced set of strengthening poses. Adding dance conditioning twists etc., to Hatha yoga gives you a chance to take the precise yoga movements, and then drop, swing, gather and release motion.
Grandma can do it; she loved it!
All levels are welcome. If you think you can't do yoga, think of this: If you can breath and walk, you can begin to improve your overall health through condition appropriate exercise. If you are athletic, Dennis's classes will take your practice to new levels!
"Aloha!"
