Sudden Valley Yoga

We provide healing through practice and empowerment in a small group or individual setting. We offer yoga and meditation classes with an emphasis on self-care.

Located in the Sudden Valley Marketplace. Namasté! NAMASTE! Welcome and thank you for visiting Sudden Valley Yoga! My name is Carole Sondalle, instructor and owner of Sudden Valley Yoga, as well as long term SV resident. My husband and I raised our family while working as nurses at the local hospital. I have been teaching yoga for 35 years, becoming certified in Denver Colorado in the early 80's before relocating to Bellingham and Sudden Valley. My teaching foundation is in Iyengar yoga where I was introduced to valuable body alignment and a great many props. As I sought freedom of expression for myself, I added forms of Vinyasa and Kundalini yoga styles into my ongoing practice. These teachings awakened me to subtle energy flow, and most importantly breath. Woven together, in each class, along with breath work and meditation is the philosophy that we are our own best teacher. "Every movement has a breath, and every breath has a movement." Take the journey-discover your breath!

🌲🕯️✨Winter Solstice, a quiet moment where the darkness meets the promise of the returning light.😑

Be still and move into the silence of the last new moon of the year.🌒
Open your heart and allow yourself to receive the energies of abundance and expansion!❤️

As we move through this cycle of dark transition where old patterns, beliefs, and timelines loosen, a path emerges where internal shifts bring an adjustment to our unfolding, layered process of release.
This energetic stillness draws us towards the light of the upcoming Winter Solstice preparing us for new, more aligned pathways of higher self and clarity.
Allow your heart, not your mind, to lead the way forward to the next new expression of your soul!
Follow the light!🕯️

Our Story

Instructor Carol Sondalle has lived in Sudden Valley for 28 years and has been teaching yoga here almost as long. Well grounded in her practice and in instruction, she has been teaching for 32 years. She built her yoga foundation in the Iyengar style. For Carol, this established beautiful alignment. However, along her journey, she sought freedom of expression for the individual body on its unique journey. She incorporated Hatha, Vinyasa, and Kundalini Yoga into her own practice and blends these styles with breath in each class. Breath is the link between our body and our mind, every breath has a movement and every movement has a breath. As we adjust our practice to meet our ever-changing needs in the present, we honor and respect the body as we move inward towards our true nature. In this silence, we are our own greatest teacher.
