An array of things can contribute to tightness in the hips & hamstrings; running, stress, sitting, even simple daily activities such as walking! We often carry patterns within our movements, not all of which are good or healthy for our bodies. Restrictions within these regions can cause significant discomfort, even pain.

By better understanding our anatomy, our postural & movement habits, as well as the mechanics of Yoga poses, we can begin to unravel held tension in the hips & hamstrings, creating space for energy to flow more freely throughout the body.

We successfully raised $150,000 through our community fundraiser!

This workshop will explore the following:

1) causes of back pain and how yoga can help

2) Specific yoga postures for strengthening the back and increasing range of motion.

The workshop will be active and experiential as we move through a sequence of yoga postures specifically for care of the back.

This workshop is designed for anyone new to yoga, anyone who has been away for a while due
to Covid or Life, or, for those who do other things but just want to see what this Yoga
business is about. Learn how yoga can be beneficial to you.
We will go over the basics and much, much more. You know your body better than anyone so you will find out what works for you. Learn modifications and how props can be used to benefit you in
your practice.

Come join us for a kirtan (devotional singing and chanting) followed by a meditative sound bath experience. You will be showered in the resonance of special world instruments such as the didgeridoo, The gong, the flute, singing bowls, string instruments and more.

Nurture the innate healing process of the mind and body as it returns to homeostasis after alcohol and drug dependency. We will delve into the intersections of addiction, trauma, and disordered eating and move through an asana and pranayama practice specifically designed to target the parts of the brain most affected by addiction. This will NOT be rooted in a 12 step approach; rather we will use the process of intuition, and allow the body to sit with what arises. This workshop will allow practitioners to set an intention and achieve a state of embodiment, thus illuminating the connection between negative self-talk and the habits it can lead to.

Come sip, play, breath, move, and connect. 

Cacao is a gentle heart medicine with the incredible capacity to help us connect to our hearts, release grief, and tap into child-like joy. 

We will start with a cacao ceremony (outside if weather permits) during which we will bless and drink our cacao, journey on a guided meditation to help you connect to your heart space, and connect with ourselves and others through gentle connection activities.

Yoga teaches us that we are each born whole, complete, and perfect!! Due to our many life experiences we tend to forget this state of wholeness, we forget who we truly are, and we get lost in our physical, mental, and emotional reactions to life. It is important for us to remember that the human nervous system simply cannot evolve at the rapid pace that society and technology has. Hopefully through what you learn in this workshop you can begin to extend yourself a bit more grace during natural moments of challenge and upset.

Foundations of Flow will bring us a greater understanding of the minute details of each posture. We will discover new depths to the vinyasa practice, and build a solid foundation from which to flow. We will go into detail on the musculature and connective tissues involved in each posture, and discover a deeper understanding of the yoga poses we do so often.

Join Amber and Luna and the Awakening Love Sisterhood under the light of the moon to share stories, songs, rituals and dance!
