SATURDAY 1-2:30pm: LINK for Passport to Your Core – A Yoga Practice to Guide You into Yourself While Turning Yourself Upside Down

What is Yoga? If we look at the literal meaning of the Sanskrit word, it means to yoke or to bring together. Real yoga is about calming the mind with all its fluctuations and agitations.

Most of our suffering and fears as human beings is between our ears, right in the middle of our consciousness. Of course there is also plenty of suffering and pain that we experience in our physical and emotional bodies as well. The poses of yoga are great because they not only lengthen and strengthen the muscles in our body but they offer us key insights into the workings of our minds. The poses reveal what is already there. It is a beautiful mystery how the poses become keys that unlock deep hidden parts of ourselves, parts that we have kept locked way and that we repress. It is the dark areas of our consciousness that have so much to teach us about ourselves. Maya Yoga teaches a way of practicing yoga that is as much about aligning the physical body as it is about learning how to love yourself more everyday. This class will use asana and pranayama to examine the mind body connection more deeply.

The focus will be on the group of poses known as Inversions – the upside down poses. Through an intelligent sequence of poses we will practice Handstands at the wall whether you are a pro already or a complete novice. Forearm balance will be done at the wall as well and headstand and shoulderstand will be introduced and shared as well. We will complete the class with the most restful pose, Viparita karani, legs up against the wall. This class will be taught in a supportive compassionate environment with the focus on the process of yoga and not necessarily on the final pose.

SUNDAY 1-3pm: LINK for With Faith Comes Courage – A Yoga Practice to Build Confidence and Grace

Two of the foundational pillars of a consistent yoga practice are Shraddha – Faith , and Virya – Courage. The only way these can be established is through steady consistent personal practice. What happens on the mat in yoga should actually not stay on the mat but should follow us out the door and into our lives where we need it most. Yoga is a life support system and the poses are transformational tools that can touch us deeply both at a soul level and as a practical means of keeping our bodies fit and healthy. We need yoga in these hectic stressful lives that we lead.

This class will be a combination of both active and restorative asana. We will be more active in the first half of the class to open the body and mind and to get the breath flowing and the heart beating and establish Faith in the efficacy of the practice. Nicki will teach an engaged asana class that includes standing poses and hip openers, pranayama, and some backbends and twists. The second half of the class will be more reflective in nature and slower.

Restorative and supported poses will take you from the active side of the practice into the calming quieting side of yoga. Courage is having the strength to listen and speak from the heart and these softer poses will give you the opportunity to get in touch with what you’re feeling on the inside. Slowly you just may find what you’re looking for.

Teaching yoga is an art, and over time, it’s easy to fall into familiar patterns, relying on habit rather than exploration. This workshop is an opportunity to break free from routine, refine sequencing skills, and rediscover creative expression in teaching.

Sequencing is more than just linking poses—it’s the foundation of how we shape an experience. Rather than relying on standard Vinyasa templates, we’ll work with improvisation, movement quality, and creative problem-solving to expand sequencing vocabulary through the Prop & Flow/Viale Method. Through guided exercises and real-time experimentation, participants will explore how to break the structure of what they know, articulate ideas with greater clarity, and design classes that feel dynamic and inspired.

Expect an immersive, hands-on experience where we’ll refine deeper improvisation techniques, sharpen the ability to teach with creative freedom, and identify ingrained sequencing habits that may be limiting growth. We’ll disrupt these patterns in innovative ways, incorporating movement constraints, tempo shifts, and transitions that challenge default tendencies. This is not a lecture—it’s a working lab where we’ll move, deconstruct, and rebuild sequencing ideas in real time, giving teachers the tools to design classes that feel fresh, expressive, and uniquely their own.
