From Iyengar yoga, a form of Hatha yoga that focuses on attention to detail and structural alignment, to Budokon yoga, also called \u201cThe Way of the Warrior,\u201d there is a style of practice best suited to your lifestyle and desires. The versatile instructors provide Restorative Yoga for healing, Partner Yoga for finding synchronicity with another, and Yoga for the Senses combining gentle movements with aromas of lavender and sage and the sounds of crystal singing bowls.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy favorite is probably Ashtanga yoga for myself, and that\u2019s what I recommend to most young, healthy people,\u201d says Mark, noting that Ashtanga practitioners are normally interested in refining the body and understanding the connection between mind and body.<\/p>\n
\u201cI gravitate toward that, but I\u2019ve been practicing yoga for so long that I really adapt to my clientele. I\u2019m able to be flexible with my teaching because I have a broad background of study.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other classes offered include Yoga Philosophy to discuss the core principles of yoga and apply them to everyday life, Thai Yoga Body Work to use aspects of yoga to massage the body, and Energy Cleanse, Breathing, & Meditation, which combines light exercise, breathwork, and chanting for a powerful session.<\/p>\n
Once you have found your style, it\u2019s time to head down to Acqualina\u2019s white-sand shoreline.<\/p>\n
\u201cAcqualina is the ultimate for beachfront yoga because you don\u2019t have to do it in the sand,\u201d says Mark. \u201cThey have a manicured lawn right up to the edge of the sand \u2013 a flat surface so it\u2019s really conducive for beachfront yoga compared to other places where you\u2019re actually in the sand. [The sand] is just not practical. It\u2019s romantic, but it\u2019s not practical.\u201d<\/p>\n
