Restorative yoga is a gentle, grounding practice that invites stillness and ease. With the support of props like bolsters and blankets, the body settles into restful shapes, allowing the nervous system to unwind and the mind to soften. There is no effort, only an invitation to let go into support. As layers of tension release, this practice supports clear seeing, a quiet returning to your original nature, beyond the noise of daily life. Whether you're feeling depleted, stressed, or simply seeking balance, restorative yoga offers space to reconnect with the clear, calm, spacious and boundlessly loving presence that always exists within you. Each class ends with a meditative gong bath to guide you to deep states of rest, integration, and inner stillness.

Learn the language of yoga. This workshop is designed for yoga teachers who want to build confidence in using Sanskrit terms and gain a deeper understanding of the language that forms the foundation of yogic philosophy and practice. Together, we’ll explore commonly used Sanskrit words, pose names, mantras, and philosophical terms—breaking them down for clear pronunciation, meaning, and context. Whether you’re looking to enhance your teaching, enrich your personal practice, or reconnect with the roots of yoga, this session offers practical tools and insights for integrating Sanskrit authentically. Jessica has been studying sanskrit on and off for 17 years with Manorama, Bharati, and others, and has recently taken up more serious study over the last three years with Zoe Mai and Edwin Bryant. She hopes that this workshop will be clarifying and also hopefully awaken a desire to study the language more deeply!

Suited for practitioners of all ages and levels of practice, this class is a great opportunity to learn the foundational actions of Iyengar Yoga and how alignment improves range of motion and flexibility. Differing significantly from a Vinyasa flow class, Iyengar classes emphasize alignment and include demonstrations where students are asked to watch and receive specific anatomical cues. The class offers a dynamic approach to standing postures, back arches, forward bends, twists and inversions (such as shoulder stand). By alternating from supine to standing and seated postures, the practitioner experiences different vantage points from which to relate to the dynamics of a pose. With a greater understanding of your body in a posture, you will experience increased confidence and courage. This is a foundational class that offers an invigorating workout geared towards beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.

Join us for a transformative breathwork journey to support your emotional and mental wellbeing. Breathwork allows you to explore non-ordinary states of consciousness, consciously. In this liminal space the breath allows you to release stuck and suppressed negative emotions and trauma in the body to make space for healing to occur. Through breathwork you can touch feelings of deep self-love, bliss and unity consciousness. Tears, laughter and unexpected feelings and emotions often surface as we move through layers of conscious and unconscious programming, patterns, stories and behaviors. The breathwork activations help you connect with your intuition (higher self), your creativity (divine purpose) and break free of addictions, traumas and limiting beliefs.

Suited for practitioners of all ages and levels of practice, this class is a great opportunity to learn the foundational actions of Iyengar Yoga and how alignment improves range of motion and flexibility. Differing significantly from a Vinyasa flow class, Iyengar classes emphasize alignment and include demonstrations where students are asked to watch and receive specific anatomical cues. The class offers a dynamic approach to standing postures, back arches, forward bends, twists and inversions (such as shoulder stand). By alternating from supine to standing and seated postures, the practitioner experiences different vantage points from which to relate to the dynamics of a pose. With a greater understanding of your body in a posture, you will experience increased confidence and courage. This is a foundational class that offers an invigorating workout geared towards beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.

Join us for a transformative breathwork journey to support your emotional and mental wellbeing. Breathwork allows you to explore non-ordinary states of consciousness, consciously. In this liminal space the breath allows you to release stuck and suppressed negative emotions and trauma in the body to make space for healing to occur. Through breathwork you can touch feelings of deep self-love, bliss and unity consciousness. Tears, laughter and unexpected feelings and emotions often surface as we move through layers of conscious and unconscious programming, patterns, stories and behaviors. The breathwork activations help you connect with your intuition (higher self), your creativity (divine purpose) and break free of addictions, traumas and limiting beliefs.
