What makes Indigo Tribe different?

Dharma

A devotional, alignment-focused practice rooted in the teachings of Sri Dharma Mittra. Expect strong holds, backbends, inversions, and breathwork. Best for students who want space to explore more advanced asana.

Vinyasa

A fluid practice that links breath with movement through creative and thoughtfully sequenced flows. Classes build strength, mobility, and body awareness. Best for those seeking variety and rhythm.

Rocket

A dynamic practice derived from Ashtanga, designed to make its poses and transitions more playful and accessible. A fixed framework, with room for experimentation. Build energy and strength.

Yin

Yoga students resting in supported poses during a Yin yoga class at Indigo Tribe.

A slow, floor-based practice built around longer holds. Targets deeper connective tissues while creating space for stillness and attention. For students looking to slow down, and improve mobility.

Pilates

A precise, low-impact practice centered on core strength, control, posture, and alignment. Intentional repetition, small muscular actions, and full-body integration to build strength. A great complement to yoga.

Breathwork

Guided practice using intentional breathing techniques to shift attention, energy, and nervous-system state. Sessions draw from yogic pranayama, for those looking to cultivate focus and regulate energy.
