Hey yall! Theres still time to register for this series! Registration closes on Feb 2nd, and the first class starts on the 6th. (see previous post for details) Email [email protected] to register

Another new class offering beginning in Feb! This all-levels yoga class is taught in the Trauma Conscious Yoga Method and provides a space to deepen our practice through mindfulness and gentle movement. We will start with a grounding and centering practice, followed by a slow flow where we will connect to the experience of the body and breath. This practice helps us develop presence, patience, and compassion for ourselves and others. This is a great class option for anyone, including those who are new to yoga, or working with injury.

We are so excited for this new drop-in class offering in the studio! The Pilates Barre Method has kept the dance in Barre while still providing accessible routines keenly choreographed to each song. This allows individuals creativity to shine through making class not simply a workout but an experience; a perfect balance between hard work and fun. Emphasis is on being mindful of your movements while staying focused on your alignment. Continued practice will increase strength, muscle tone, body awareness and improve posture. Look forward to increasing energy levels too! Classed begin Feb 4th!

Hi everyone! Check out this new series with @kelseymovesaround ! More info below, email us to register Exploring Arm Balances workshop series This 5 week series will explore a variety of different arm balances, exercises to strengthen the muscles used in arm balances and variations to make these postures more accessible. Each week will include a powerful yoga flow to strengthen the core and upper body as well as open the body in preparation for a series of arm balances. T...he arm balances will be workshopped and broken down in the second part of the class. We will finish the class with longer holds and deep stretches to cool down. Classes will: -build on teachings from the previous week -explore ideas around strength, effort and ego -reinforce an approach to strengthening centered around breathwork and learning how to integrate the whole body into postures that typically use mostly arm strength. This is a great series to get stronger and learn to start playing with arm balances in your practice even if you are brand new to arm balances. Watch yourself improve over the 5 week series and have fun exploring new challenging postures. Dates : Classes run weekly 7-8:15pm February 6,13,20,&27 and March 5th All classes must be pre-purchased to participate in the series

3 spots left in this Sunday afternoon workshop, Returning to Sexual Wholeness on the 8th!! get in while ya can! An invitation to step into the role of self-healer and reclaim your sexuality. Living as a womxn in modern day society, its likely that your body is carrying trauma and that your sexuality has been impacted as a result. There are the little t every day traumas that happen from exposure to toxic media, messaging, and a culture that encourages us to override the ...needs of our body. And, there are the big T life shattering traumas that occur from assault, abuse, childhood wounding, and systemic oppression. Both of these kinds of trauma leave an imprint in our bodies and can dampen our sexual functioning, disconnecting us from our wholeness. Carrying unintegrated trauma and stress can show up in your sexuality as: Numbness or a lack of pleasure Shame, anxiety, or fear Sexual shutdown Discomfort or pain during sex In this workshop, youll learn some somatic tools to bring you into greater connection with your sexuality. Well start in health by first resourcing into safety and cultivating body sovereignty. Then, well talk about the practice of vaginal dearmouring - a focused tool for integrating trauma, and re-sensitizing your vulva. Lastly well move through a gentle trauma releasing breathwork that you can practice on your own at home. Leave empowered with the skills and knowledge necessary to bring some loving attention to your sexuality and to build a sense of embodied trust in your physiology, psyche, and soul. Please bring a notebook, pen, and a yoga mat.
