This class is about becoming spherical. Twisting alone can feel very tight and constricting, but when we implement the mind and neurology to navigate around the body in a more circular shape, we can hope to find a revelation within our blind spots.

Information pulls from our periphery into the midline. Our side mirrors in the car help eliminate blind spots and navigate 360 degrees around, the same is true for the side of the body. This class will be really yummy for the ribs and leave you feeling more expansive in the whole body.

Super fun class here for you with a chair and a pole. Boundaries give us safety and feedback to the body. Often when we practice we are relying on our own neurology for information but with the use of a pole and a yoga chair, we can gain insight to how we move around our own spit formally and ta...

As the season changes, we follow with cues of mother nature. Go inward, move slow, take care of the inside. Lymph fluid can get stagnant quickly in the winter months, blood sluggish, and air is shallow. This class will help clear those spaces that need extra movement and massage to clear out.

The first major fold of the body is the pelvis.

In this class we are hoping to keep your mind wrapping around this joint and have moments of n...

In this class we say hello to the side body chain that often is neglected. We will also spend some time compressing through the abdomen and digestive organs. This will be a slower practice, we will be on the floor the whole time. Great to recovery or just needing some time to go inward.

Resting is essential for health and well-being. We often think of rest as sleeping or napping, but in a traditional restorative class we use ample props to hold up the body and the joints so that we can bask in the experience of being in a pose and finding relaxation. No effort. Enjoy this time...
