    Three Different Yoga's for three different reasons..

    Learning2Fly

     

    If you are new to Yoga, or it's been a while since you've been on your mat.

    Maybe you are rehabbing an injury or recovering from post-surgery?

    Learning2Fly is a great introductory class for you.

    The important thing is that we move as we age; movement is one form of healing. We need to grow aware of balance and the limited range of motion that might take place in the body. We start the movement from there self acceptance is our first step.

    The therapeutic warm room and the soft lighting will invite you in graciously. The warm tempeture of 85 degrees will help you relax you and will ensure that your body is able to stretch more freely.

    We work on the fundamentals of Yoga—teaching balance and breath awareness and strengthening muscles to build a better connection with YOURSELF.

     

    I invite you to join me as we dive into the importance of movement and real presence in your life.

    Yin Yoga

     

    Starting October 29th, join us at 4 PM on Sunday afternoons for a 75 minute Yin with Reiki class. The room will be warm, holds will be set to Solfeggio + Fibonacci frequencies, and we will close gently with Yoga Nidra. Yin, sound healing and Nidra are three curative systems known for their ability to assist central nervous system strengthening and repair, and for cultivating dimensions of consciousness by improving the circulation of energy throughout the body.

    Traditional Hot Yoga 90 minutes

     

    Bikram yoga is a sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises practiced in a heated room (about 105 degrees, 50% humidity). Every aspect of this class has been carefully designed and timed, down to the second. There is nothing about Bikram’s beginning yoga class that is haphazard. The breath work and poses are designed to scientifically warm and stretch muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the order in which they should be stretched. What’s beautiful about this process is that practicing the exercises in their exact order drastically lowers the chances for injury and provides a platform for great healing to happen in your body.

  • Metta Yoga Seacoast

    At Metta Yoga Seacoast, we are a community of caring, compassionate, and non-judgmental practitioners of all experience levels, who find strength, support, and sanctuary in each other.  We understand the challenges of facing the future, the concerns about aging anatomy, and the need to maintain our health and fitness. 

    We are never too old, too injured, too stiff, too stressed, too overweight, too sick, or too depressed to reap the benefits of yoga, and we believe yoga is a true medicine for the body, mind, and spirit. We encourage you to grow with us, accepting where you are, emotionally and physically, each day. 

    Come join us in the hot room, with an open mind and heart, leaving your expectations behind.

  • Our Pod Classes

    Are you new to the studio? Are you a recently returning yogi?
     
    Whether it is our Traditional 90-Minute Hot meditative series or our "Learning 2 Fly" 60-minute beginner warm class, finding the right fit is instrumental to your success.  Our small private pods ensure a high teacher-to-student ratio, with safe techniques leading to better balance and strength. The individualized attention helps you achieve your personal goals.  Let Metta be your catalyst in taking the next step to a healthier, more balanced self.
     
    Here are some reflections from current students:
     
    -- Debbie, age 64, a New Yogi. 
    “When I signed up for a yoga pod, I wanted to improve my strength and balance. I never considered the psychological aspect of yoga. The other yogis in my class were so welcoming and supportive. I thought I would be intimidated, but everyone encouraged me. This yoga has taught me to be less judgmental of myself. It has opened me to better relationships with my family and friends. I am so grateful I found the support at Metta."
     
    -- Ray, age 61, an experienced Metta Yogi.
    “This year marks my tenth anniversary at Metta. I am finding myself fitter and more focused than ever, thanks mainly to Jan's smaller coaching classes. Over the years, I've been in many packed hot rooms, and they've been great. But having fewer classmates, more space, and more personalized instruction greatly affects how I listen, respond, and ultimately feel. My practice is soaring, and I am grateful.”
     
    -- Bonnie age 52, taking the Learning 2Fly beginner class – 1 hour warm.
    "This class has helped to strengthen and tone my whole body. Currently, I have a knee injury that may need surgery. Jan is helping me regain strength in my legs and body without any weights. The warm room makes me feel so detoxified. I cannot say enough about Jan and her teaching. It has been a gift. She explains and puts things into perspective, corrects and knows your limits, and works with each person in the class."

  • Metta Yoga Pods and

    Why We Do Them

    Our pods are groups of up to 16 students with one teacher. Limiting participation to 16 students allows us to socially distance in the hot room.  The classes are a lot of fun and we gain a sense of real community. You will be motivated and surprised by your strength and perseverance. You will walk away after every class with acceptance of your body and a grateful heart.

    I have found these pods to be energizing for all of us. Throughout these challenging classes, I have really enjoyed teaching and watching you grow in your practice. The greatest gift I see as a teacher is the vital connection each of you have with your breath. Busy and stressed minds enter the studio door, and then find a sense of peace that embraces them through the class. As a teacher and studio owner I could not ask for any greater gift than that.

    Thank you "Pod People" for trusting me, as we move through the journey together. I am so proud of the progress you have made in these small pods.

  • Recent Reviews of our Pod Classes

    You cannot find a better hot yoga studio or more incredible owner/instructor than Jan Allen and her Metta Yoga Seacoast Yoga Studio in Salisbury, MA.  The studio is ultra clean and Jan's instruction is thorough and crisp.  Make no mistake, this type of yoga is a major work-out.  Try classic hot yoga and you'll understand. I am an older person, with bad knees and a titanium hip.  The heat and the stretching positions loosen your muscles and let you build into deeper positions.  If you sit at a desk most of the day like I do but are committed to regular yoga sessions, you will feel SOOO much better and will thank yourself for it. Jim 64

     

    I have practiced Bikram Yoga on and off for several years. I started back up about a year ago when Jan began offering the pod classes. The small pod classes have given me more individual instruction and guidance which in turn helped me grow with the practice more than I thought it would. I feel great. I enjoy being in a smaller group and developing friendships with those in my pod. Jan is a great teacher and has been able to give me encouragement and motivation to continue practicing regularly. The studio is clean and very welcoming. She does a great job making sure it is safe for everyone during these challenging times. Micky 51

     

    Personal wellness and self-care are imperative, especially during a pandemic. Metta Yoga Seacoast’s small group pod format allows me to feel safe and confident while building my emotional and physical strength. My practice has grown because of Jan’s expertise and guidance. Amanda 35

     

    There are many benefits to the small pod configuration! Not only is there enough room to spread out and feel safe, the individual instruction and attention that Jan gives each yogi is phenomenal. I have improved both physically and psychologically at a much faster pace than I did in the larger class format. Jan is encouraging and genuinely cares about each of us and our progress. Since we are with the same people in every class, the class has a friendly, family feel. I have so much respect for Jan and her business model. I am grateful to her for keeping the studio open so I can continue to learn from her and continue to go to my “happy place”! Carrie 54

     

    I totally enjoy the smaller pod classes offered at Metta Yoga. I don’t miss the packed 26+2 classes from before the pandemic and like practicing with the same committed other students in each class and also think that, with the smaller classes, the teacher is able to better focus on each student. Jan is a class act. Peter 62

     

    Working in the smaller classes with Jan has helped my practice immensely. The individual focus and attention allowed for greater growth. Metta is a place for me to move, be still and heal. Jeremy 33

  • About Us

     

    Jan Allen founded Bikram Yoga Seacoast - now Metta Yoga Seacoast - in 2008, bringing to the North Shore and the Seacoast a yoga studio deeply rooted in yoga tradition.

     

    In the process, she also created a wonderful community of people.

     

    The studio continues to specialize in the classic Bikram Yoga hot 26 posture beginner's 90 minute format, and also provides a 60 minute Commuter Express version that is offered early mornings.

     

    In addition, the studio offers classes in three other forms of yoga: a Vinyasa Flow practice which involves synchronizing the breath with a continuous flow of postures, a Yoga Sculpt practice that focuses on strength and intensity, and a Yin Yoga class that focuses on seated and supine poses at a slower, more passive, pace.

     

    Also, through its Special Events series, the studio provides the opportunity to experience additional yoga disciplines led by guest teachers expert in their fields.

     

    In the spirit of metta - loving kindness - Jan's studio will inspire you to live not only healthily, but also vibrantly, compassionately and joyfully.

     

    Thank you for this yoga. Thank you for this life.

     

    By activating love and warmth within ourselves, we are better able to work through challenges.
     
    You are worth it. You are enough. You can do this!

     

    Compassion

     

    The journey of self begins in the space of compassion. Add loving kindness to yourself today. What do you need today? With movement comes a healthier more proactive mindset.

    Perseverance

     

    Strengthen, sweat and realign your mind and body. Movement of your body can awaken your most vibrant self. Just show up and be with yourself and us.

    Love Yourself

     

    Be gentle with you, embrace and awaken your most vibrant self. You are enough. I hope you enter this safe place with an open heart and a willingness to be a better stronger you.
