Difficulty & Intensity Guide

This comprehensive guide will help you find which series is right for you

Difficulty Levels

Difficulty refers to the level of skill and technique called for in a class.

Introductory

Introductory classes are designed for those who have never taken a yoga or fitness class before.

As a step below the beginner level, introductory classes move at a slow pace, take time to break down each pose and exercise, and are shorter in length to help you build endurance as you create a new movement routine. These classes are generally bodyweight only and contain modifications to help you feel safe and supported.

Difficulty—Beginner—Outlined Copy Created with Sketch.
Beginner

Beginner classes are geared toward those who have very little exposure to yoga or fitness.

These classes offer many modifications and detailed instructions on fundamental poses and exercises. Beginner classes are perfect for someone who is looking to start a regular yoga practice or fitness routine, though they’re also suitable for all levels to practice and brush up on the basics with alignment and form. You can also find mindfulness and wellness in this category.

Difficulty—Moderate—Outlined Copy Created with Sketch.
Moderate

As the next step up from beginner classes, moderate classes include higher-level modifications and less detailed instruction than you would find in a beginner class.

Moderate classes are well-suited for those who have previous yoga and fitness experience and a basic understanding of poses, exercises, and class structure. This is an excellent choice if you’re trying to maintain consistency in your routine and increase your strength, skills, and flexibility with a class geared toward all levels.

Difficulty—Intermediate—Outlined Copy Created with Sketch.
Intermediate

Looking for a challenge? Intermediate classes tend to weave in more challenging poses and high-intensity exercises at a faster pace.

These classes will help build your strength, deepen your flexibility, and enhance your body awareness. For yoga classes, you can expect creative transitions, options for arm balances and inversions, and workout-inspired flows. For fitness classes, expect heavier weights, a higher sweat factor, and a quick pace that challenges your strength and cardio endurance.

Difficulty—Advanced Copy Created with Sketch.
Advanced

These classes offer the perfect opportunity to explore your potential beyond what you’ll find in typical all-levels studio classes.

Advanced classes are designed for those with a strong and consistent yoga and fitness routine. Expect advanced-level inversions, arm balances, and backbends; challenging peak pose variations; deep flexibility; strength work; and tricky transitions. You’ll find your edge while exploring a greater level of strength, control, and skill work.

Adrienne Rabena

Adrienne’s classes are an enrapturing combination of rhythm, fluidity, and fire. She is fiercely dedicated to intuitive and flowing movement, and she delights in the challenge to choreograph transitions that feel seamless and beautiful.

Her unconventional approach embraces body-affirming language, radical presence, and a sincere connection to authentic expression. Adrienne believes you’re already whole, and her classes remind you how to occupy your entire body with power and compassion.

Adrienne is known as the "teacher's teacher" in the barre world. She is the founder of the Barre Eclipse method and she offers barre teacher training programs and resources for instructors both online and around the globe.

Elvis Garcia

Elvis was born in Guadalajara, Mexico and was raised in Wenatchee, Washington. For Elvis, yoga is an extension of his passion for movement and his love of the performing arts. Just as a performer must find strength and stability in the preparation leading to the final performance, Elvis finds the same joy in building the basics of an asana practice as a base to flourish into a beautiful expression of movement. He holds a high regard for the simplicity of the practice, for not only does everything you need lie in the basics, but it is also where beauty and clarity are found.

Elvis was trained by Annie Carpenter and aligns his instruction style and yoga values with the SmartFLOW methodology, which blends the discipline of classic yoga with anatomic awareness and fluid transitions.

He now resides in Seattle, where he owns and teaches at his yoga studio, Seattle Yoga Lounge, in the Greenlake neighborhood.
