Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a slow, quiet style of yoga where poses are held for several minutes, allowing the body and mind to soften and settle.
Unlike more active styles of yoga, Yin focuses on stillness, surrender, and deeper relaxation.

Chair Yoga

A gentle and accessible practice using a chair for support. Chair Yoga improves mobility, balance, strength, flexibility, and relaxation without requiring you to get down on the floor.

Move with ease, breathe deeply, and feel stronger—one mindful movement at a time.
Starting September 15th, 2026

Gentle Yoga

This class is a blend of gentle standing and seated yoga postures combined with Yin and Restorative. Suitable for beginners and those starting fresh into the world of yoga.

Hatha Yoga

This class will have a few Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskars) to warm up leading into standing and seated yoga poses with long holds. The focus of this class is strength, awareness, balance and stretch.

Vinyasa Flow

Vinyasa Flow yoga is a dynamic, breath-synchronized practice that seamlessly connects poses (asanas) in a continuous, rhythmic sequence, often called a “moving meditation”. It builds strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance by moving through poses like sun salutations, planks, and lunges on every inhale or exhale.

This style allows for a lot of variety with some challenge. Options and modifications are offered for both beginners and advanced students.

Mat Pilates

A Mat Pilates class is a low-impact, floor-based fitness method using a mat, focusing on core strength, flexibility, posture, and muscular endurance through controlled bodyweight movements. It emphasizes breathing, alignment, and core engagement, often using props like bands or balls to enhance the workout. It is accessible for all fitness levels, including beginners.

Deep Stretch

Deep Stretch is a targeted mobility class using long-held passive stretches and breathing techniques to help relax muscles, improve flexibility, release tension, and increase overall mobility. Suitable for all levels, from athletes looking to enhance performance to anyone wanting to reduce stiffness from daily desk work.

Come enjoy yoga in a friendly, clean, safe and a serene environment.

Gilroy Yoga is full of positive and joyful energy, with a friendly and peaceful environment.
