Founded by Suze Curtis in 1996, this time-proven, unique practice blends the power of asana with vibration. Practiced in 88-95 degrees, this discipline combines Power Vinyasa Flow with Organic Ultrasound© ~ internal tonal vibration.

The style incorporates breath, alignment, power vinyasa flow & warmth (room) with internal toning - a soft hummmmm during YIN stretches. The healing power of sound vibration is reflected in the hundreds of testimonies from our students over 15+ years.

Asana means "to-sit-with" (a posture). This very popular 75-Minute practice features "call-outs" - a strong foundation to ensure quality practice flow. Instructors have freedom to focus fully on all students -encouraging, guiding, adjusting, inspiring.

Students love that every class is consistent in sequencing, timing and instructor-attention.

Whether you desire to be challenged physically, relieve stress, or courageously face "your stuff" -you'll leave this practice glowing, stress-free & totally-energized.
