Join me for a 2-hour head to toe ball rolling self-massage workshop Ahimsa Yoga + Wellness! It is designed to relieve muscle tension, pain, and knots with self-massage, combined with some somatic movements and restorative yoga postures. The most effective way to improve mobility is to move the fascia that covers our muscles and contributes to stiffening in the body. We will be working from head to toe – the lower body including the hips, legs, feet, toes, and the upper body including the neck, shoulders, upper back, arms, hands, and fingers. Not only will this practice relieve stiffness and pain, promote mobility, flexibility, circulation, but it will also increase your energy as well as soothe and calm the nervous system.

This workshop is perfect for anyone who sits at a desk all day, athletes, or anyone who has tightness or stress in the body. Let’s roll, release, restore!

The cost includes two balls.

Date and Time: February 25th Saturday at 1-3 PM

Cost: $40 includes two balls

DM me if you’re interested 🙏

My friend’s inspirational quote ✨

The other day, I caught myself in such a rush on my day off. Life often feels like a runaway train. Are you going too fast in some place in your life? Yoga slows us on board down so that we can enjoy a little bit more of the essence of our living. Join me in my online class today at noon ✨

"Things come to an end so better things can fall into place. The world is a cruel and tough place, and you will one day have to deal with sacrificing and letting go. But you must learn to accept these endings. For the end doesn't mean there is a complete finish, the end means there is a chance to start something new." - Nishank Rana

Through the pandemic, I realized how fragile life is. Through the black lives matter movement, I realized how little I know. It was a reminder for me to open my eyes, ears and perception even more in order to serve in this world. These difficult times has showed me that life is capable of taking away the things we care about the most. The work I was putting so much love, time and energy into for years, has been taken away from me so quickly. It was too soon to be the end. More than ever, I came to realize that the end doesn't mean a complete finish. The end gives me a chance to start something new.

No matter how hard we try, we can't escape from the cycle of death and birth. And the more we cling with the familiar and stay afraid of the unknown, suffering is created within us. The practice encourages us to keep letting go of our attachments and to stay present with all of our experiences. The practice keeps us listening to our bodies, breath, and heart. When this is over, we're going to be stronger, wiser, more able, and more powerful.

I'll see you on the mat virtually or privately at my Greenwood Village studio. Now, we need yoga more than ever. I hope you'll continue to practice however you can.

Sending nothing but love to you ✨
