📣DRi TRi THIS SUNDAY!📣

If you aren’t familiar, DRiFT offers a monthly event that highlights the best of (the) DRiFT(less)! Beginning with a guided walk or run out to the driftless outdoors for approximately 27min on foot, then returning to DRiFT for a Sculpt CircHiit segment and ending with a recovery-focused flow. As if that didn’t sound like enough fun, lavender towels and smoothies are included!

What a step forward into 2026! Dozens of folks DRiFTED into the studio to begin their year with, as Nina put it, “tending to their heart”!

During our morning, we invoked the chant:
Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha

Traditionally, this mantra calls on Ganesha, known as the remover of obstacles. It’s often offered at the start of something new; not to promise an easy path, but to acknowledge what might be in the way and move forward anyway. And forward we moved; through letter writing, gentle movement and a deep, extended savasana.

Thank you, Nina of Resonant Heart, for carrying us all forward with your medicinal sound and voice.

It’s an event worth planning for and we hope you’ll save the date for next year: January 1, 2027 ❤️

✨ DRiFT 2025, wrapped. ✨

You came.
You saw.
You exhaled.

In 2025, the DRiFT community showed up again and again…on mats and in conversation. Together we welcomed new DRiFTers through the doors, moved thousands of collective minutes, and raised $13,706 toward organizations working for the liberation of ALL people through the Karma Yoga Project.

766 classes.
8,085 visits.
100+ Members and package holders.
Countless moments that don’t fit neatly into a graphic; friendships formed, laughter shared, hard things moved through, and the steady practice of presence and connection.

We grew our instructor family, welcomed guest teachers near and far, and continued building a space rooted in access, strength, rest, and belonging.

Thank you for being part of this DRiFT. However you arrived, however long you stayed.
We can’t wait to keep moving together into what’s next. 🤍

The definition of resolution, at its core, is to resolve something – like a conflict or to answer a problem or issue…bringing it to an end. It can also denote “resolve” or “resolute.”
✨
It seems ironic that moving into New Years, it’s popular to have resolutions as we move forward. Not just ironic, maybe counter-productive – or predictive? Often our resolutions, no matter how well meaning, end long before the outcome arrives. No matter how resolute or how much resolve you have around something you want to change (about your body? A relationship? Money? Time?) within months we are back to our old habits.
✨
Sound familiar? So, instead of dreading the new year, let’s embrace ourselves in a practice of growth. To evolve, lean more into our values, find joy in our life, happiness in our imperfections, question and evolve our purpose in life, find meaningful activities that align with our heart.
✨
This New Year’s Day will incorporate moments of reflection and movement while ebbing and flowing with the ancient sounds of singing bowls led by Nina Smock (she/her) of Resonant Heart.

Because sustainable movement isn’t about choosing one or the other. At DRiFT, it’s about strength and yoga, together.

Research shows that multifaceted movement practices support both physical and mental well-being: yoga improves balance, flexibility, strength, and injury resilience through mindful movement and neuromuscular coordination, while strength training builds muscle, bone health, and functional strength that help you stay active for years to come. ďżź

At DRiFT we offer both, so you don’t have to pick one over the other. Combining strength and yoga helps you move better so you keep showing up for… the long haul.

Now through 12/31, use code HELLODRIFT to get your FIRST class free for NEIA residents.

Find your strength. Keep your peace. Join the movement. www.driftlessyoga.org
