Yoga Practices to Enliven Your Senses | By Sharon W. House

While staying true to its promise of healing the mind and body, yoga in Colorado is so much more than a traditional studio experience. Designed to enliven the senses and provide an innovative environment, below are just a few of the dozens of unique offerings you can find throughout the state.

SunWater Spa in Manitou Springs now offersĀ GlowgaĀ classes, which are practiced under black lights, as well asĀ Fireside YogaĀ and Candle Light Yoga, which are held next to a blazing fireplace or surrounded by the glow of candlelight, according to Ros Prado, events and yoga manager.

“Changing the environment allows our students to look at their practice through a playful lens, let loose and relax in an environment that is both fun and safe,ā€ says Prado.

Added to the mix is Unnata Aerial YogaĀ at a studio outside Boulder, which uses fabric hanging from the ceiling to suspend the students. And not to be outdone, the Downtown Aquarium in Denver has been offering Yoga Under the SeaĀ at the Downtown Aquarium in Denver. With these and many more, you now have a full sensory experience while practicing your downward dog.

Glowga, SunWater SpaĀ 

Unlike a typical class, Glowga is practiced under black lights. But this is not just any yoga class; it’s a fun, interactive practice with upbeat music that will leave you feeling energized. Glow in the dark art is set-up throughout the room and 3-D glasses are offered to students for a fun, sensual experience.

Fireside Yoga, SunWater Spa

Set to return to the schedule in the fall, this Friday evening class is 60 minutes of a warm, fireside, slow flow. Lights are dim, movements are slow and relaxation after your busy week is guaranteed.

Candle Light Yoga, SunWater Spa

Returning to the schedule in May, Candle Light Yoga includes a peaceful and relaxing ambiance that allows us relax and let go of the day’s stress. It is a multi-level practice illuminated by candles with gentle movements and soft music that allows you to relax and de-stress.

Unnata Aerial Yoga, Figure Yoga

Akin to aerial silks in the circus, this practice incorporates the fabrics hanging from the ceiling into suspended yoga practices. According to the website, fans say it deepens your stretches, provides an extra muscular challenge and is a great way to decompress your spine… and it’s a lot of fun.

Yoga Under the Sea,Ā Denver Downtown Aquarium

Offered on select dates, primarily in the spring and summer, yoga is practiced in front of the tanks at the aquarium. Surrounded by sharks, turtles and fish, the ambiance is soothing and exhilarating.

Many CBD companies out there make full-spectrum products, but @miraflora.co, a CBD company based in Boulder, CO, takes it to a whole new level, starting with the way they grow the hemp itself. Call it full-spectrum farming, if you will.
RENEWAL 🌱
Can you create a to-do list prioritizing tasks where contentment and meaning mesh together?
@holisticyogaschoolcolorado was born over a decade ago with the intention to create a Yoga Shala, a community place for learning and growth. Krista Davis founded the school, drawing inspiration from many years of traveling, living and teaching in conscious communities and yoga centers around the world. To this day, the school continues to thrive as a family-owned and operated small business.
The benefits of meditation are alluring. However, there is no instant, one-size-fits-all solution — like most things in life. In fact, researchers recommend practicing meditation daily for at least 10 to 20 minutes to reap rewards. Most importantly, always remember: the only unsuccessful meditation is the meditation not taken.
@mnyogalifemag congratulations on your new issue! So happy we could celebrate at the virtual reveal party. Great work @amyzellmer and your amazing team, and gorgeous shot of cover model @ericka.jones_ !
