Reservation requests must be received by 6pm the day before class.

There is a class limit, please do not arrive without a confirmed reservation.

Fill out your email slowly, as if it is incorrect, I will not be able to respond. 

A 24 hour cancellation notice is required. Cancellations in less than 24 hours are still required to pay class fee.

Bring your own yoga mat. I do not provide or rent out mats. Don’t worry if you can’t get a mat in time for class. Towels can be used as well. I recommend two towels as the grass area can be wet from irrigation. There are thrift shops and plenty of stores on Maui that carry mats for sale.

To allow for more ease and variations, I highly suggest bringing blocks and a strap and any other props that may support your practice.

Oceanfront yoga is only outside so the class is weather permitting. However, Kihei, has beautiful weather so there are not a lot of cancellations.

Each time you come to class you will be required to sign a disclosure and release document. Parking is only for guests of The Kamaole Nalu, unauthorized cars will get towed.

OCEANFRONT YOGA LOCATION:  AT THE KAMAOLE NALU RESORT (2450 S. KIHEI RD., MEET AT SHORELINE). PARKING IS FOR KAMAOLE GUESTS ONLY. PLEASE PARK ON STREET IF YOU ARE NOT A GUEST OF THE KAMAOLE NALU.

 DIRECTIONS TO CLASS:

Oceanfront Yoga by Johanna Waters, at The Kamaole Nalu Resort, 2450 S. Kihei Rd.

Meet at shoreline,

If you are not a guest of kamaole Nalu, to avoid getting towed, park on the street or the parking lot across from Kamaole Nalu walk thru parking lot, follow concrete walkway, pass elevator, head towards ocean. We meet on the grass in front of the ocean.

The Mission of Oceanfront Yoga is to provide you with an authentic yoga experience in a beautiful setting to prepare you for your day of adventure, work or play. Johannas’ oceanfront yoga classes are a comprehensive, gentle to moderate level practice that uses a combination of asana (posture), pranayama (breathwork) and meditation for a healthy way of living.

Since yoga is an empowering act of self care,  Johanna encourages you to modify or amplify your practice depending on your individual needs. This class is more about moving and feeling the body to increase strength, flexibility, range of motion and anatomical fluency; as opposed to pushing too much to get into a non- beneficial shape or motion. Johanna inspires you to increase physical boundaries but at the same time to not confine yourself to physical achievements.

Her approach to yoga is a holistic form of body and breath connection in a supportive setting that relaxes the mind.

 

Yoga Class Etiquette:

Please keep walkways clear.

Arrive on time.

Sign in before class starts.
