“In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.” -Francis Bacon
Welcome to the darker side of yoga.
This Halloween, Annamaria and Jessica invite you to trade the usual yoga aoundtrack for metal, doom, goth, and dark rock in a 90-minute practice for those who like their yoga a little louder, heavier, and darker.
We’ll move through a vigorous full-body practice rooted in classical yoga, building heat, holding poses long enough to meet the fire, breathing through the intensity, and occasionally surrendering to the riff.
But Metal Yoga isn’t just yoga with heavier music.
This is a space to bring the parts of yourself you don’t have to make peaceful before walking through the door. Anger. Frustration. Stress, Restlessness. Darkness. Bring it with you. We’ll give it somewhere to go.
Expect strong movement, deep breath, long holds, loud music, moments of release, and a little controlled chaos. You’ll be challenged but you’re always welcome to modify, rest or take things at your own pace. No performance required.
And after journeying through the ire, we’ll descend together into the most metal pose yoga ever invented:
Corpse Pose.
Come for the riffs. Stay for the catharsis.
Wear black or costumes if the spirit moves you.
All levels welcome, including complete beginners, metalhead, goths, rockers, yoga skeptics, and anyone who has ever thought a yoga class could use more distortion.
