Level 2: Yoga for Tight Shoulders and Neck
About this Class
This class is a progression from our regularly scheduled tight shoulders and neck class. This class gets out of the chair, and includes functional movements to improve mobility, range of motion, and increase strength, without increasing strain or pain. A more challenging practice to “floss” the tension out of tight shoulders and a stiff neck. This class will focus on joint mobility, releasing pent up tension in the muscles that support the shoulder, neck and upper back, while strategically training these areas to be stronger and more supportive for those long days at work, or after a weird night of sleep. Pre-requisite: you have taken our tight shoulders and neck class and are ready for more of a challenge.
Previous yoga experience strongly recommended.
This class expects students to have some level of prior experience.
You'll get a great workout, and still have energy later.

Niki took her first yoga class at 12 and has been a student of the practice ever since. Her philosophy is that yoga is as much about what happens on the mat as what your mentality is all day long - managing stress, choosing love over fear and overcoming excuses. She holds an advanced Psychology degree from the University of South Florida, and is registered as an E-500 and Y.A.C.E.P. with the internationally acclaimed Yoga Alliance. Yoga is for every body, and her style is down-to-earth. You’ll move, and you’ll learn a lot, too! Expect variations of postures, modifications, props, breath work and specific cues to advance your own practice, class by class.

Denise K
An excellent class for anyone who needs or wants to target their neck and shoulders using breath, movement, and body awareness. Nikki is a professional, personable teacher who is refreshingly forthright and who provides just the right amount of prompts, demonstrations, and feedback to support her students in their yoga practice. Great sense of humor, too!

Niki has a way of bringing both calm and humor to her classes. Not only does she demonstrate, but she is clearly paying attention to students and form and making corrections, which is very much appreciated! Niki has a nice way of making corrections without making students feel awkward. I feel awkward enough, so I very much appreciate it!
