Meet Robin Robertson 🌙✨

On Monday evenings, Robin guides each student with focus, strength, and care, creating a space where movement and mindfulness meet. With more than two decades in martial arts and multiple black belts, she brings discipline, resilience, and precision to every posture, helping students cultivate both power and presence on the mat.

Having deepened her practice in Mysore, India, and completing The Yoga Shala’s 200-hour Apprenticeship under Krista Shirley, Robin blends traditional Ashtanga with her expertise in Yin and martial arts. Her approach is intelligent, grounded, and adaptable, meeting each practitioner exactly where they are.

Through Mysore-style yoga, every breath, every alignment, and every adjustment becomes an invitation—to explore, refine, and reconnect with your body and breath. Robin’s classes illuminate your potential, helping you move with awareness, ease, and quiet confidence.

The Full Moon asks us to slow down, listen, and move with intention. 🌕✨

In the Ashtanga tradition, moon days invite rest from Mysore practice, a pause that allows the nervous system to settle and the body to integrate. Today is one of those days.

While Mysore takes a quiet pause, Body Mechanics is still offered this morning, an opportunity to explore mindful movement, alignment, and intelligent support for your body. A different rhythm, but the same devotion to awareness and care.

This is the essence of practice: knowing when to work, and knowing when to soften.

Your body carries stories of strength, tension, and resilience, if only you knew how to read them. 🌿

Body Mechanics is more than movement. It’s a practice of awareness, precision, and intelligent action. Each session helps you:
✨ Activate muscles that often go unnoticed
✨ Release lingering tightness and stiffness
✨ Move with balance, control, and confidence

Step into a space where every motion has purpose, and every breath supports your alignment. This is about honoring your body’s wisdom and unlocking your full potential, gently, safely, and joyfully.
