Trends in wellness come and go — and while there’s space for all kinds of movement practices, at Yogacara, we’re intentionally choosing something different.

We’re here for the teachings that ground you, that grow with you, and that meet you where you are — breath by breath, year after year.

A student recently shared that in other studios, she felt like she wasn’t “part of the club” — like everyone knew each other, and she was on the outside. But here, she said, she never felt that way — that she felt seen, included, and welcome from day one.

That’s what we’re cultivating. A practice that’s not about performance or buzzwords (no “detox” or “burn more calories” signs here), but about deep embodiment, warm-hearted community, and returning home to yourself.

✨ We’ll take timeless over trendy — every time.

🧘‍♀️ "Yoga for Mountain Bikers" coming this Sunday (the perfect wind down) 🚵‍♀️

Mountain biking is more than a physical pursuit — it's a moving meditation, a dance with nature, a test of balance, breath, and presence. Yoga for Mountain Bikers is a practice designed to bring harmony between your body, mind, and the trail beneath your wheels.

Darrah will support you in exploring yoga as a way to:

Restore mobility in the hips, spine, and shoulders — areas often restricted by long hours in the saddle
Build core stability and balance, cultivating strength from your center
Open your breath, creating space in the body and clarity in the mind
Ground your awareness, tuning into the rhythm of your ride and your inner landscape

Each session blends mindful movement, breathwork, and stillness — offering not just physical recovery but a deeper connection to yourself and the ride. Whether you’re riding for the thrill, the peace, or the challenge, this practice invites you to show up with intention, on and off the bike.

All levels are welcome. Come as you are — and leave feeling more aligned.
