A 60 minute mixed level, beginner friendly Beach Yoga class. Class is on the sand. We don't use a yoga matt on the sand, just bring a bath towel for sitting or lying down poses.

Instruction is in both English and Japanese language.

Meet at the entrance of Kapiolani Park, across the street from the Honolulu Zoo entrance, and next to the large, outdoor, metal framed Sunset On the Beach Film frame. At the Kapiolani Park entrance you'll see a statue of a standing surfer man, on a large round pile of rocks. We meet at that statue.

The instructors include Dennis B Miller, who has been teaching daily beach yoga classes at this same location since 2007. His class blends a meditative focus on alignment with inner-momentum building movement sequences.

If you are walking from Waikiki, you'll pass the Duke Kahanamoku Statue, at the corner of Kapahulu and Kalakaua, you'll pass a lying down boogie board boy statue, with a seal. Keep going another two minutes, on the ocean side of Kalakaua, until you arrive at the Kapiolani Park entrance, and the standing surfer man statue.

Class content varies daily, and includes Hatha Yoga, Sports Stretching, Modern Dance Conditioning, Partner Yoga, and 'Standing where the waves wash over the ankles' Yoga.

By standing in the shallow surf towards the end of class we receive the benefit of refreshing ocean water splashing our legs and the requirement of extra core work to maintain balance. To retain balance while in a standing yoga pose in shallow surf we have to more deeply engage our core muscles to prevent the feet from sliding out. Additionally, the slope to the water makes down dog, lunges, and press-ups easier!
