SUMMARY:Find Your Rhythm w/ Katbird Dunn
DESCRIPTION:Please create a Mindbody account for each participant if registering more than 1 person. If you have any questions regarding registration\, or financial aid\, please email Kelsey at  kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org  \n \nA 90-minute experiential workshop using rhythm\, mindfulness\, and play to cultivate presence\, connection\, and emotional well-being. \n \nIn a world that moves fast and demands constant attention\, many of us lose touch with our natural rhythm. We spend our days thinking\, doing\, and reacting\, often leaving little space to simply be. Rhythm offers another way. \nAcross cultures and throughout history\, rhythm has brought people together. More than music\, rhythm is a shared human experience that invites us to listen\, respond\, adapt\, and connect.  \nHuman beings are naturally wired for presence\, connection\, creativity\, and play. Yet the pace of modern life often pulls us away from these qualities\, leaving us feeling rushed\, disconnected\, or overwhelmed.  This 90-minute experiential workshop invites you to slow down\, reconnect with your body\, and discover how tuning into musical rhythms naturally creates the conditions for your nervous system to settle. As we slow down together\, many of the qualities that are naturally part of being human—presence\, connection\, curiosity\, and joy—begin to emerge. Come as you are. Leave feeling more grounded\, more connected\, and more in rhythm with yourself. \nThis workshop is designed to be welcoming\, accessible\, and engaging for everyone. No musical experience is necessary. **All instruments are provided.** \nWhat to Expect  \nThis is a hands-on\, experiential workshop where everyone participates. Together we will explore: * Simple rhythm instruction that makes participation easy for everyone * Progressive rhythm experiences that cultivate focus\, presence\, and regulation * Mindfulness practices that deepen awareness and embodiment * Grounding exercises that support nervous system regulation * Playful rhythm games that encourage laughter\, curiosity\, and authentic connection * Moments of reflection to help integrate the experience into everyday life  \n \nThis isn’t about musical ability or performance. It’s about being present\, connecting with others\, and discovering what becomes possible when we slow down together.\n \n What You’ll Experience  \nParticipants often leave with: * A calmer\, more settled nervous system * Greater presence and mindfulness * A deeper sense of connection with themselves and others * The freedom and joy that come from play * Increased confidence in their body’s natural capacity to regulate and restore balance * Practical experiences they can draw upon when life feels overwhelming  \nWho This Is For  \nThis workshop is for anyone who wants to: * Slow down and experience greater ease * Feel more grounded and present * Reduce stress and mental busyness * Connect with others in a fun\, supportive environment * Experience mindfulness through movement\, rhythm\, and play  \nNo musical background or drumming experience is required. Accessible and inclusive for all ability levels  \nFor more information on Katbird\, please see his teacher profile here! He teaches donation based Meditation weekly on Thursdays from 5:15-6pm. \nCost: $25Financial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk\, call\, or email kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org. \n \n \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming. Registering in advance guarantees your spot and helps the studio have adequate staffing. If fewer than 5 participants register the event may be canceled. \nRefund Policy: We understand that life happens and unforeseen circumstances come up. If life offers up an unexpected event and you need to withdraw from the workshop: \n\nA full refund will be issued if you need to withdraw 4+ days before the workshop. Please reach out for your refund\, as it will not be automatically applied to your account.\nIf you need to withdraw within 3 days or fewer\, no refund is provided.\n\n \nLate Policy: Doors will close at the workshop start time. We encourage you to arrive at least 15 minutes before the workshop start time to ensure there is ample time to park\, check in and settle in to your space. We do have a 10 minute grace period\, and we encourage you to call the studio to let us know if you are running behind. If you are later than 10 minutes after the start of the workshop\, there is a chance you will not be able to enter and no refund will be given. \n \nCapacity: Please note: Some workshops will fill to capacity of 28 students.

SUMMARY:Alignment 101 w/ Dana Maria
DESCRIPTION:Strengthen and stabilize your practice to improve safety and confidence.\nYoga poses don’t have alignment—people do.  \nEver wonder why we do the poses the way we do them? Or why the posture doesn’t quite land in your body? Want to deepen your personal practice with a better understanding of the asana limb of yoga? \nJoin us for an all-levels workshop where we’ll explore how to create alignment that works for your body. We’ll move through the poses typically found in any Gentle or Vinyasa class to really get to the heart of how your body can land in each posture\, and fully understand the difference between discomfort and pain.  \nWe will unlock the full potential of your practice and discover how props can bring more comfort\, support\, and empowerment to your yoga journey. \nThrough mindful movement\, and practical techniques\, you’ll learn how to: \n-Adapt poses to fit your unique structure-Find stability and ease in your practice-Reduce strain and prevent injury-Cultivate awareness of your body’s natural alignment. \nEach asana has its own specific benefits and goals. For example: \n\n\n\n\nEasy Pose: Promotes grounding and stretches hips and back. \n\n\nCat/Cow: Warms up the spine and increases mobility. \n\n\nDownward Dog: Stretches and strengthens\, elevates your mood. \n\n\nWarrior Poses: Builds strength\, balance\, and flexibility\, while cultivating mental focus. \n\n\n\n\nThis workshop is about how yoga feels\, not how it looks. \nIt is perfect for anyone looking to refine their practice\, build confidence\, and move with greater freedom.

SUMMARY:Samskara & Synapse: Yoga to Rewire Your Brain w/ Timothy Burgin
DESCRIPTION:Please create a Mindbody account for each participant if registering more than 1 person. If you have any questions regarding registration\, please email Kelsey at  kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org \n \nRecent studies in neurobiology reveal how yoga can influence the creation\, strengthening\, and changing of the brain’s neural pathways. In yoga\, our unconscious habit patterns are known as Samskaras. Yogis and modern science have found that when these habit patterns are repeated\, the brain’s synaptic connections strengthen and speed up. When these patterns are strong enough\, they run as automatic habits or our personal identity rather than conscious choices. Both yoga and modern neuroscience agree that these patterns can be changed. \nThis workshop offers a diverse toolkit of yoga practices: pranayama (breath control)\, asana (physical postures)\, kriya (a cleansing or energizing technique)\, mudra (hand gesture)\, Vairagya (non-attachment)\, Tapas (disciplined effort)\, and Drishti (focal point). These traditional techniques are informed by modern neurobiology research for their efficacy in rewiring unconscious and unhealthy patterns. \nWhat You Will Learn:– What samskaras are in yogic philosophy\, and how they relate to the neuroscience of conditioned neural pathways.– The basics of neuroplasticity\, how the brain is thought to form\, strengthen\, and reshape neural connections.– How breath practices\, mudras and Drishti (focal point) can each be used to down-regulate the nervous system.– How to use sustained isometric asana holds as engineered mastery experiences.– How Vairagya\, the practice of non-attachment\, can help dissolve an old pattern and make room for a new one.– How to use Tapas\, disciplined effort\, to strengthen a new synaptic pathway.– The importance of the neuroplastic pause\, the brief gap between a trigger and your habitual reaction.– How to strengthen your Interoception\, the ability to feel what’s happening inside the body. \nTimothy teaches a donation-based weekly Vinyasa Flow on Sundays from 10:30am-11:30am. For more information on Timothy\, please see his teacher profile here! \nCost: $30Financial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk\, call\, or email kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org. \n \n \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming. Registering in advance guarantees your spot and helps the studio have adequate staffing. If fewer than 5 participants register the event may be canceled. \nRefund Policy: We understand that life happens and unforeseen circumstances come up. If life offers up an unexpected event and you need to withdraw from the workshop: \n\nA full refund will be issued if you need to withdraw 4+ days before the workshop.

DESCRIPTION:iPlease create a Mindbody account for each participant if registering more than 1 person. If you have any questions regarding registration\, or financial aid\, please email Kelsey at  kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org \n\n\n  \nThis two-hour workshop pairs an atmospheric\, fluid Vinyasa practice with the layered\, hypnotic discography of The Cure.  \nGuided by atmospheric flow and gothic soundscapes\, this session pairs dynamic Vinyasa with autumn’s reflective energy to create a deeply sensory movement ritual.  \nThe practice weaves together dynamic\, rhythm-driven flow with reflective somatic holds.
