12/10/2025
On the darkest night of the year, we’re invited to slow down, soften, and listen a little more closely to the quiet places inside ourselves.
Join The Mat Community and Pose Yoga as we gather to celebrate the return of longer days and shorter nights.
❄️Sunday 12/21❄️
This Winter Solstice gathering with Kristen and Joyful Pose Yoga blends gentle mysticism with grounded, nourishing practice in a space to unwind the year, reflect, and reconnect with what feels true.
❄️4:30 Gentle Therapeutic Yoga❄️
a 75 minute yoga practice to rest, connect + revitalize your energy.
Suitable for yogis of all levels... including those that are brand new, overcoming injury, enduring chronic pain, or just need a practice to unwind from stress.
This is a community favorite on our schedule! To view Kristen's other offerings at The Mat, visit us here: https://wix.to/6Nm6T93
❄️6:00 Winter Solstice Practice + Sound Bath❄️
We’ll move through journaling, mindful movement, focused attention, and contemplation, all held within the healing resonance of a restorative sound bath.
Together, we’ll follow the ancient rhythm of turning inward — releasing what’s ready to go, receiving what’s longing to arrive, and welcoming the slow return of the light.
