Welcome to Greenway Yoga! Led by breath, students of ALL LEVELS practice together in a judgment-free environment where modifications are encouraged. Practice will be held in a gently heated, candlelit environment. Check out our schedule and see which classes fit your needs!
Flow: Build your mind-body connection by linking breath to movement. In this moving meditation, you will flow through a series of postures, core-strengthening, and balancing. Hatha/Vinyasa flow varies from teacher to teacher. Try them all! All levels welcome.
Slow Flow: A slower more foundation focused version of our Flow class. Time between poses typically held longer with more emphasis on physical stillness rather than moving from posture to posture. All levels welcome. Fridays 5:30PM are a "pay-what-you-can" donation class to help bridge the accessibility gap <3
Yin & Restore: Will help you access deeper layers of fascia and connective tissue to increase flexibility and circulation to your joints. This slow-paced practice includes supportive postures held for extended periods of time. Through the use of props, each instructor will offer unique variations of this class to include elements of meditation, restorative yoga, breathing techniques, and yoga Nidra. Dive deep into your body and consciousness.
Rest & Sound: Bathe in the vibrations of live Crystal healing bowls. Typically starts with light yogic exercises/meditation and some Yin yoga postures. Participants are encouraged to lay reclined OR in any position of ease. A provider will administer sound bath musical techniques that will create soothing, overlapping vibrations. Healthy for the mind, body, and spirit.
We suggest that all level students practice at least 2-3 times per week in any community-led yoga environment (or at home) in order to prevent injury and develop deeper benefits from yoga. Please refer to your physician before beginning any new exercise routine.

Holly Whittlef (she/her): Holly is, above anything else, an eternal seeker. Since her first yoga class more than 20 years ago, she continues to find within this ancient practice a deep knowing that she (and we) are all innately whole.

She offers an introspective space in her classes where we can feel more okay with ourselves by connecting our bodies, minds, and breath—hopefully taking that off the mat to be better humans.

Angela Ogle (She/her): Angela's inclusive expertise is contagious, uplifting, and powerful.
"I enjoy supporting the human connection and I am genuine and inclusive. I am passionate about making Yoga accessible to all and meeting them where they are at. I constantly strive to make a difference sharing love, light, kindness, and acceptance -along with a little humor, hope, and joy -and a whole lot of laughter!" I have been fortunate to travel the last few years- teaching at resorts and retreat spaces and assisting with Yoga teacher trainings. This has given me the chance to increase my knowledge and deepen my own practices as well. I love teaching a strong and slow flow and really focusing on alignment. I teach Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, Restorative and Chair yoga classes. It is a privilege to guide students to a place where they can challenge themselves to find the strength and balance that lies within them already. I am excited to be joining the Greenway Yoga team as a sub for now and more permanently in March 2025 when I return from teaching my first 50 hour Grief and Trauma focused YTT in Costa Rica.
