What is the difference between Restorative Yoga and Hatha Yoga?

Written By: Coach Kelly

At Degree, we are grateful to be able to offer different styles of Yoga to our members and community.

Your certified Teachers, Kelly & MJ , bring their own unique styles and expertise to their classes. This offers you more choice, and different opportunities to take care of yourself!

Restorative Classes & Gentle Flows
MJ specializes in Restorative Yoga & gentle flows perfect for those looking for a really good wind-down type class.

The Restorative classes offer the support of bolsters and props, where most poses are done in a lying position or close to the ground. These classes are the perfect starting point, or for those with limited range of motion, perhaps cardiovascular challenges, and overall a really gentle way to nourish your body, mind & soul.

Hatha Classes & Active Flows
Kelly specializes in a more Hatha or Vinyasa style, that is, including more dynamic poses and sequences to build heat in the body. You’ll find a blend of traditional poses, consisting of standing poses and those lower to the ground.

These classes are a great middle ground for those looking for the gentle relaxation, with a dash of spice! You’ll find strength-building and a splash of core work, always ending with a deep Savasana.
