Workshops

This workshop is an opportunity for members of the LGBTQ+ community to come together and cultivate safety, self-love, and community. 

At a time where many are feeling afraid, angry, and highly disregulated due to the discriminatory legislation taking place across the country, we will prioritize rest and connection to the body, breath, and spirit. The overall intention is to create a space where queer/LGBTQ+ folks are able to settle into their bodies, soothe the mind, and soften the heart.

Guide yourself from a place of peace. Relax, really relax with the powerful practice of Yoga Nidra. In this guided meditative journey we will quiet the mind and tap into our wholeness. During this inward movement you are invited to let go of negative past patterns, so the light of your true nature shines through. In this deep state your intention is easily called into awareness. In this workshop we will explore the basics of Yoga Nidra, followed by a brief Yoga Nidra experience to illustrate and inspire the use of intention. You will focus your energy toward creating a powerful individual intention, which will become your North Star, especially in times of challenge. Together we will journal, playfully put our desires into words, and share our insights if we so choose. The workshop will close with a Yoga Nidra session designed to empower your self-created intention. My vision for this workshop is to introduce each participant to their ability to create the life which best expresses who they really are: Divine!

Mantra is a powerful tool to liberate the mind and heart. The root of the word, mantra, is manas (mind) + tra (to protect). When we gather in community to chant, we bring this practice to life. We always leave a little brighter.
In this workshop, you will be introduced to a variety of mantras and their significance. You will cultivate the power of your voice. You will experience mantra as meditation and as celebration. As we chant, these sacred sounds resonate deep in our consciousness. They guide us home.
You may be playing with mantra for the first time or rekindling a consistent practice; just bring your authentic presence. Chant your heart and know the joy of sacred sound!

Join us in the courtyard for a bonfire, live music & quality time together! Halloween costumes welcome. The entire community is invited to come celebrate our amazing volunteer teachers and studio volunteers!

Yin Yoga has so much to offer in regards to healing and alignment on the physical, mental and energetic levels and has gained in popularity over the past many years. While “Yang” Yoga styles (Ashtanga, Vinyasa and other “flow” styles) focus on muscles, “Yin” Yoga focuses on connective tissues with deeper longer holds and more time spent in stillness.

For thousands of years people have gathered in circles to heal, learn, thrive and sustain harmony in community.  The circles hold space for listening to your own heart of wisdom and healing on a deeper level. This space doesn't critique and is not intended to be intellectually analyzing or deconstructing but hearing spiritually. I believe our current culture is asking us to use the old ways to support a new paradigm of being and working together.  As we learn and lead in this new way, we bring with us more peace, connection and healing in these challenging times.

Kirtan is call and response chanting. blended with beautiful rhythmic music that will calm your mind, open your heart and remind you of your connection to yourself and all that surrounds you. It is a form of Bhakti Yoga (yoga of devotion)

“Awakening Love” is a community of women who value togetherness, support, growth, and belonging. In this circle, we work together to find connection and reclaim our personal power through contemplative practices such as movement, singing, sharing, time together, and time with Self. It is our belief that when we reclaim our power, our capacity to do powerful things in the world expands!

This is not your average yin class. This is a potent practice where the challenge is cultivating strength and flexibility in relationship with your mind and body. Poses will be low to the floor, holding anywhere from 3-12 minutes. This extended yin yoga workshop will allow us the time to explore and understand our physical boundaries. We will have the space to safely approach edges and decipher where and when to challenge self-limiting boundaries.
Together, we will cultivate a tender approach to practice patience, breathe deeply, and illuminate the depths within.

Kosha is a Sanskrit word meaning ‘sheath’ or ‘covering’. The theory of the 5 Koshas is one of the most ancient descriptions of the body as having five distinct but connected layers.
