Welcome to Yoga8, where our main focus is to help as many people as possible increase their quality of life. Through the practice of yoga, we aim to nourish and heal not just the body, but also the mind and spirit. At Yoga8, we are dedicated to supporting each individual based on their unique wants and needs. We understand that trying new things can be intimidating, but we assure you that you will be greeted with open arms and loving hearts in our judgment-free zone.
Yoga has incredible benefits, such as reducing stress and anxiety, aiding in healing from grief and trauma, and promoting strength and flexibility in the body. Many individuals find that before starting yoga, they couldn't touch their toes, and that's perfectly okay. This is precisely why yoga is so beneficial – the less mobile you are, the more you stand to gain from this amazing practice.
Join us at Yoga8, where we will love and support you on your journey to living the highest quality of life possible. Remember, you are loved and welcomed here with us.

Depending on your personal goals and objectives the following guide could vary (are you seeking yoga to add to your current workout regime or to replace your workout regime). This guide is a good starting point but we encourage a consultation with our instructors. If seeking weight loss from practicing yoga, a low fat diet is suggested for faster results.
1-2 times a week
To achieve increased flexibility, reduce stress, reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, detoxify internal organs, help recover from an injury or illness
3-4 times a week
To achieve increased fitness levels, strength, tone, flexibility, cardiovascular, reduce stress, reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, detoxify, ultimate mental peace
5+ times a week

Considerations
The "Journal of the American Academy of Physician Assistants" reminds practitioners that it takes a minimum of two to three sessions a week, for eight weeks to measure increases in strength and flexibility from a yoga routine. Yoga8 suggests a minimum of three sessions a week, although yoga should be practice daily. A little yoga every day is better than one long yoga session.

Healing Yoga is a restorative style yoga focused on slow stretches and mindful breathing creating mental clarity and space in the body. This class is very low impact and requires very little stamina. EVERYONE should do this class at least once a week no matter if you are brand new to yoga or the fittest of the fittest.
Beginner / 60 mins / 95° - 105°
Hot Stretch & Release is a glorious stretch class in a heated room. It is the perfect class to help loosen up tight muscles and relax. This is a great class to help restore the body and connect with your breath. We recommend this class to everyone with limited flexibility and an achy body. Come relax and stretch with us.
Beginner / 60 mins / 69° - 72°
Yin yoga works deep into the connective tissues to activate change at that deepest level. Yin is a fantastic way to increase or maintain flexibility as it focuses on the areas around the joints. You’ll immediately notice more open hips, buttery muscles and a major mind detox. In the long run, it will lubricate joints, release the fascia of the body, increase flexibility and positively affect your yang practice.
Beginner / 60 mins / 73° - 75°
Hatha Basics is a great class that introduces some of the main stream poses in the practice of yoga. Hatha Basis combines postures (asanas) with conscious breathing and focus to develop strength, flexibility and mental clarity. Students can expect to develop body awareness and explore varied postures in a mixed-level environment. This class is a nice practice for anyone new to yoga or experienced yogis who want to sharpen their alignment and skills. This class has a slow to moderate pace so you will learn the fundamental yoga asanas (poses) and principles that create a successful and effective yoga practice.
Intermediate / 60 mins / 73° - 75°
A Vinyasa Flow features asanas (postures) that are linked with the breath with very little rest between postures. It also incorporates use of drishtis, Sanskrit terminology, binds, longer holds, inversions and arm balances. The majority of the class is focused on linking breath with movement, but advanced postures may be workshopped throughout. The Vinyasa class combines the internal benefits of yoga while getting a great workout designed to build your endurance, strength, flexibility and confidence as you flow through a series of asanas (poses).
New yogis may enjoy taking a Hatha Basics or Hatha Flow class to become familiar with basic asanas (poses) and lingo. We will be moving fairly fast. Be prepared to sweat.
All Levels / 60 mins / 73° - 75°
If Hatha Basics and Vinyasa Flow had a baby they would name it Hatha Flow. Hatha Flow is a combination between Hatha Basics and Vinyasa Flow. Hatha Flow will break down the postures and alignment of mainstream poses and then start to link the breath with movement. This class has more movement than the Hatha Basics class but is not as rigorous as a Vinyasa Flow class. This is a great class for all levels.
All Levels / 60 mins / 80° - 90°
All the perks of a standard Vinyasa Flow class just adding in a little extra heat. The warm classes are performed in 80 - 95 degree room temperature. The heat allows for the body to go deeper quicker and to create the sopping wet sweat. It is oh soooooo good. Bring a towel and hydrate before you come to class.
All Levels / 60 mins / 72° - 78 °
Do you love to flow but also love the deep tissue release of yin? Then you will LOVE Vin/Yin. This is a hybrid class that you will practice vinyasa flow the first half of the class and practice yin for the second half. This is the perfect balance of yin and yang.
All Levels / 60 mins / 105°

Change does not happen in your comfort zone and this class will take you out of your comfort zone no matter your fitness level. Kick Ur Asana is not your average yoga class.
Kick Ur Asana infuses yoga poses, gymnastics conditioning, plyometrics, functional movements at high intensity, and learning how to find comfort in discomfort. This class sounds intimidating but do not let that stop you. Just like all of our classes, this is YOUR practice. You can always rest when needed and if certain postures are not accessible we offer modifications. This class is designed to bring you to failure and ready for a nice peaceful savasana. Some yoga experience is suggested but not required.

Mat Pilates is a low impact form of exercise that focuses on strengthening and lengthening your core (trunk) muscles while also training your arms and legs. This is a great practice if you are looking to build strength, tone the muscles and creates a long, lean body frame.
Beginner / 45 - 60 mins / 69° - 72°
Strength begins with an active, full-body warm-up designed to engage the core and prepare all major muscle groups. This class utilizes resistance training and body weight exercise in order to accelerate change in the body, build strength, and increase core stability. This class finishes with gentle stretching and a light cool down.
Beginner / 45 - 60 mins / 69° - 72°
Barre classes are inspired by components of yoga, ballet, and Pilates. It focuses on low-impact and high-intensity moves designed to tone and strengthen your body in ways different than other workouts. The barre is used to help you balance while doing these isometric moves. Barre classes also sometimes include small balls, hand weights, and resistance bands to do some floor work. The low impact of barre workouts focuses on properly aligning your body. This is a great and fun workout.

"Yoga8 has improved my lifestyle significantly! All my back problems are gone and I feel stronger than ever before. The Core30 and Kick-Ur-Asana classes are my favorite because they go beyond the basics and you don't leave the class without breaking a sweat. Yoga is truly the BEST medicine in the world. Kim, the owner, is such a caring and loving person, you will immediately feel a connection. Her passion for yoga is reflected in the way she teaches and inspires others! She sees every individual that enters her studio as a unique person and gives her all to ensure we understand the cues that will not only help us during the class, but be better for life. Her cues are stuck in my head and help me with my posture and back issues throughout the day. No matter if you are new to yoga or experienced, you will be treated amazing at this place. This is the BEST yoga place in Waco! Thank you for all you do, Kim!!! :)"

"I finished my first week at Yoga8 and I absolutely love it! When I first met Kim, the owner, I was immediately drawn in by her energy as this genuine, caring, loving, peaceful person that I really wanted to be around more. I've taken a few different classes with Kim, Ann and Bonnie and they are all really nice and personable women. I had never done any yoga before Yoga8 and I'm officially addicted. I was looking for a change in my life, something positive and peaceful, something I could do that made me feel good inside and out and so far that's what Yoga8 is doing for me. I couldn't be more pleased!"
