Rocket yoga is an aerobic, full-body workout designed to keep the energy level high while breaking through areas of tension and resistance. Fun and accessible to beginners and intermediate students, the Rocket incorporates more core abdominal moves, inversions, hip openers, backbends, and twists than traditional yoga classes. Developed 20 years ago by Larry Schultz, the founder of It's Yoga San Francisco, Rocket yoga is a version of the traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga series, which incorporates conscious breathing, core strength, and steady gaze to build flexibility, endurance, and serenity. The practice was named the "Rocket" by members of the Grateful Dead because, they said, "it gets you there faster."

Rocket I (75 minutes):

Every rocket sequence is made up of 4 parts. Starting with traditional Ashtanga Sun Salutations, the sequence moves to an original standing sequence, as well as arm balances to build strength and protect joints. On the floor, yogis will recognize the sequence as being a modification of the Ashtanga seated primary series, followed by the traditional Ashtanga finishing series.

Rocket II (90 minutes):

Building on the same standing series as Rocket I, Rocket II diverges when it comes to the seated series. Based on the back-bending sequence of the intermediate series of Ashtanga, this routine complements the forward folds of Rocket I, laying the foundations for a strong practice.

Developed by German immigrant Joseph Pilates in the 1920s as part of a rehabilitation program for prisoners of war, Pilates is a series of exercises designed to condition the whole body using movements that focus on correct anatomical alignment and balance. The Mat sequences combine conscious breath work with exercises that can improve posture, core strength, and mind-body awareness.
