Your health is an investment, not an expense.

A new ROOTS sequence starts next week and let me tell you... You're going to love it!

ROOTS - It's the same every week which allows students to get familiar with the postures so they can slow down, tap into their inner knowledge and measure their progress. It's a grounding practice designed to invoke strength, stillness, stability and resilience.

This is a powerful class (to help you build strong roots!)

🪷"Zen" will hold a permanent position on Sundays, for now. I often refer to Zen as the happy medium class.. It's very accessible to all experience levels because you get all the options or "bus stops" as one of my teachers liked to call them.

💪"Boot Camp" is just a fun way of saying group fitness class. It's not scary, we actually have so much fun! And everything can be done with body weight alone so nobody is expected to lift weights unless they want to, and we have a range of dumbbells from 1lbs to 25lbs.

☀️"Rise & Shine" with Chelsea is my favorite class to attend because she is an amazing sequence planner, she's super welcoming, and she's very knowledgeable.

🧘 "Yoga" is generally going to be a combination of Flow and Restorative... A Yin Yang kind of thing. But not always because sometimes YOU need something else and we feel that. So we just want to have the ability to lead without guardrails.

🌱 "Roots" omg just try it... If you like a strong practice.... Or a gentle practice.... Or a way to gauge your growth as a Yogi... Or if you just like a warm citrus-spice cloth placed on your forehead while you drift into a relaxing savasana.

Hahaha, I love it!

Sometimes healing looks like deep breathing, journaling, talking, praying, long walks, and hot baths. A million dollars wouldn’t hurt either. And sometimes it saying f**k this out loud. until you remember you actually have a voice and permission to use it.

You spent too long biting your tongue, softening your words, making yourself quiet so someone else could stay comfortable. That stops now.

Say it in the car. Say it in the shower. Say it to your reflection. Say it to every memory where you swallowed your anger to keep the peace. F**k this. F**k that. F**k all of it.

Your throat chakra doesn’t clear through silence. It clears through truth. And sometimes the truth sounds like rage before it sounds like anything else.

So if today’s meditation is cursing out loud until something in you shifts—good. That’s not unladylike. That’s not unhealed. That’s you remembering you’re allowed to take up space, make noise, and stop apologizing for having feelings about what was done to you.

Let it out. Your voice was never the problem.

As the name suggests, this series is for beginners and for those who want to begin again.

If you're not sure where to start...
If you used to practice a little but it's been a while...
If you want more flexibility...
If you want more range of motion...
If you want to feel more at home in your body.....Then this is for YOU!

The classes will be very accessible - not a whole lot of getting up and back down again. We will start laying down with some nice easy stretches, then we'll make our way to a seated position and onto hands and knees, and eventually up to our feet for some simple standing postures and movements before coming back down to rest and allow your practice to integrate into your body.

In an effort to hold a comfortable space for those who may feel uneasy and/or vulnerable, experienced yogis will be asked to skip this series... Thank you for understanding.

6 week series; 1 class each week.
Commitment; $60
Tuesdays at 9:00-10:00am; February 3 - March 10

*Pre-registration is requested to ensure there is enough interest for the series to run*

Don't forget that your Zen class for this week is TODAY at 10:30-11:30, NOT tomorrow!

"ZEN"
Expect an easy warm up and a smooth slow flow that's sprinkled with a few longer-held stretches designed to melt tension away from your body so you can relax and completely unwind.

Speaking from experience, it's easy to forget;
To be grateful;
How hard you've worked for what you have;
You're smarter and stronger than you think;
Nobody is perfect;
Everyone wants to be loved;
To breathe is to live;
This moment is all there is;
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone.
