Butterfly Tree Yoga

Join us for Gentle Hatha Yoga! Gradually build stability, balance, strength, and range of motion, while calming your mind through breath and guided awareness. Thursdays 3:30-4:45 PM at The Gathering Place.

This is a very gently active practice designed with accessibility in mind, bridging chair-based and mat-based yoga.

We get up and down from the floor a few times (slowly while holding onto support is fine). All “standing” postures are offered in 3 variations: 1) Seated in chair, 2) Standing while holding the chair for support, or 3) Standings hands-free.

Go at your own pace in a supportive environment, guided by a certified yoga therapist.

Please email Erin (at) ButterflyTreeYoga.org or call/text 778-587-8894 to register or learn more. Happy New Year!

I am grateful to live, work, and play on the lands of the K’ómoks, Pentlatch, and Tla’amin peoples. I recognize and am deeply sorry for the devastating harms caused by colonization, both historically and to this day.

As a small way of giving back, all Butterfly Tree Yoga classes are free for people who are Indigenous to Turtle Island. (This is always true, not just on Truth & Reconciliation Day!)

For those who live or work on the southern tip of so-called Vancouver Island, check out Reciprocity Trust as another way of giving back:

Reciprocity is about making recognition of Indigenous land rights more meaningful

Join us for Vigorous Hatha! Wednesdays 5pm at The Gathering Place. Edit: Starting NEXT WEEK Sept 10.

Similar to a Vinyasa Flow, this a challenging class for intermediate practitioners who are familiar with most basic yoga postures, and who are seeking more intense challenge of strength, flexibility, and balance. Suitable for people who can get up and down from the floor quickly many times, and who do not currently have significant injuries or who have the knowledge to adapt their own practice as needed.

Consistent with my training in India, all classes include breath, meditation, and chanting as well as the movement portion of the class. All components of class are optional and non-religious.

Contact Erin@ButterflyTreeYoga.org or 778-587-8894 for more info and to RSVP. Thank you!

Join us for Moderate Hatha Yoga! Tuesdays 4:15-5:30pm at The Gathering Place. Suitable for beginners and intermediate students who are comfortable getting up and down from the floor unassisted.
