Intermediate Yoga is a Kripalu style yoga class for experienced students. Deepen and hone the basics while exploring more challenging poses. All classes are taught in the Kripalu style and follow a semester-long arc. Each semester begins with a focus on stretches and twists and then builds in rigor and complexity. Beyond this basic structure, every semester is different. Barbara's classes are responsive, integrating the needs and interests of her current students, influence of current events and even the season.

"Barbara Lyon is a born teacher. She has that rare ability to create a learning environment that is totally stress-free and student friendly! Although her classes include poses that challenge students, each student is encouraged to advance at the pace he or she needs and is comfortable with." - C. L.
"I've been taking Barbara's class for 7 years or so, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it changed my life. She's such a patient, careful teacher: my body makes sense to me now in a way that it didn't before. If you want a small, gentle yoga class with a lot of personal attention, I can't recommend this class highly enough!" —S.M.
Until we can safely practice together in person again, you can join the restorative yoga classes from the comfort of your home.
Restorative Yoga can be practiced safely by almost anyone. We practice on the floor, using gravity as our support to release our grip on physical, mental, emotional tension and allow ourselves to enter into the wide open field that lies beneath.
Props:
If you do not own specific yoga props, such as strap, blocks, bolster, create your own: Blankets, bath/beach towels, firm pillows and scarves can substitute.
