Yin Toolkit 2026 - A Journey Through the Five Elements & Five Archetypes of the Soul

April 12th, July 12th, August 30th, October 25th and January 10th (2027)
3 - 5:30p

Nature does not move in straight lines. It moves in cycles.

In nature, growth emerges from stillness - activity follows rest - expansion gives way to integration and ultimately to release and dissolution. Each year, we too move through a seasonal cycle of transformation. Spring awakens feelings of courage and action; summer opens our hearts to joy and connection; late summer nourishes a sense of stability; autumn requires release and acceptance of impermanence and winter draws us inward for restoration and reflection.

When we align with the wisdom of nature’s cycles, something profound happens we stop forcing life and begin moving with it.

The Yin Seasonal Toolkit Series invites you to consciously experience the year as a living journey of renewal, growth, connection, and transformation aligning with the rhythms of the Five Elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. In a world that constantly pushes us toward productivity and acceleration, the Five Elements offer another way of living that honors timing, balance, and natural rhythms.

Cost: $55 for each individual workshop. Autopay and Annual Members receive 20% off each individual workshop. Purchase all five 2026 Yin Toolkits as a series and receive 20% off*. These workshops build on each other and form a learning arc. We encourage students to consider registering for the full series. Please email hello@thepracticespace.com to purchase with this discount.

*All Yin Toolkits will be recorded on Zoom, if you would like to come to all 5 but have a scheduling conflict you can purchase the Zoom recording and watch it on demand. The Practice Space has a strict no-return policy, please consider this when purchasing for this series.

Thank you to everyone who participated in yesterday’s International Women’s Day class and the wider Portland community that joined the Honk & Wave.

There has been a great deal of overwhelm and exhaustion that is weighing on all of us. Yesterday showed the power of connection with community and transforming despair into action.

Courage is contagious! 🕊️

In times of uncertainty and destabilization, many of us are asking how to stay grounded, connected, and courageous without burning out. This class is a space to pause and practice together with the intention to enhance awareness and personal well-being for the mission of supporting collective care and taking meaningful action. We gather to steady and nurture ourselves and to remember we don’t have to do this alone!

During this one hour class we will focus on stability and ease through accessible movement of yoga postures and energetic work through the focus of the breath. We will conclude class with a brief meditation. The aim of this class is to cultivate collective care for supporting both personal grounding and shared action.

Brave Women Unite Honk and Wave

For those that are interested, we will march from the studio to SE Belmont and César Chávez for a Brave Women Honk & Wave solidarity event between 3:30-4:30pm.

Bring your signs, friends, and let’s stand up to defend our rights, our bodies, our futures, and insist on nothing less than radical inclusion!

All who support women’s and LGBTQIA2S+ rights are welcome and encouraged to join us. This space is inclusive of all marginalized communities. Here we believe that trans women are women. We are also mindful of the intersectionalities of gender and sexuality for those in our BIPOC community. Let’s lift the voices of those who are often not heard. No one is free until we are all free!

Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls!

Bhikkhu Pannakara (the lead monk of the Walk for Peace) stated last week in Washington DC that, “it’s not about Bhuddhism. Mindfulness is for all beings. Find it, unlock it. You’re the only one who can do this. Not the venerable monks. Not the reverends, nor anyone else, but you.”

Thank you to all the community members who stopped by on Wednesday for the Walk for Peace Loving Kindness livestream. We were honored and deeply touched to have so many people stop by through the afternoon.

Thank you to the venerable monks for igniting awareness of peace and compassion in a time when it seems such qualities are being eclipsed. And thank you to the wider community of practitioners cultivating awareness and mindfulness each and every day. It isn’t glamorous work, and most likely nobody will ever thank you for doing it, but know that we see and bow to you.

For the past three months, a group of 24 Buddhist monks from the Hương Đạo Vipassana Bhavana Center in Fort Worth, TX have been walking with their dog, Aloka, 3700 km from Texas to Washington D.C.

This long distance pilgrimage known as the Walk for Peace, was started by the monks to promote peace, compassion and non-violence in the US and throughout the world.

This Wednesday, February 11th, the monks will engage in a three hour loving kindness meditation that will be livestreamed around the world on Facebook. They are hoping to have millions of people join them in collectively praying and meditating for peace. Think of that - millions of people together at the same time, focused on peace. That is true power!

We lovingly invite you to participate in this event with us.
In solidarity with the monks and their mission, The Practice Space will offer our studio as a location for you to come and meditate together in community.
Please come to the studio this Wednesday, any time between 1:30 - 4:30 pm.
You can join us for 3 minutes or 3 hours.
We will stream the broadcast and offer meditation spaces for all who wish to participate.

No need to register - just show up whenever you can and stay as long as you wish. ✌🏽🙏🏼 ✊🏾

Dear Community Members,

For the past three months, a group of 24 Buddhist monks from the Hương Đạo Vipassana Bhavana Center in Fort Worth, TX have been walking with their dog, Aloka, 3700 km from Texas to Washington D.C. This long distance pilgrimage known as the Walk for Peace, was started by the monks to promote peace, compassion and non-violence in the US and throughout the world. They have been walking in frigid cold, some even going barefoot, to simply offer this act of kindness, generosity and inspiration. On Tuesday, their 108th day of walking, they will finally arrive in the nation’s capital.

This Wednesday, February 11th, the monks will engage in a three hour loving kindness meditation that will be livestreamed around the world on Facebook. They are hoping to have millions of people join them in collectively praying and meditating for peace. Think of that - millions of people together at the same time, focused on peace. That is true power (and power exists for transformation not dominance nor oppression).

We lovingly invite you to participate in this event with us. In solidarity with the monks and their mission, will offer our studio as a location for you to come and meditate together in community.

Please come to the studio this Wednesday, any time between 1:30 - 4:30 pm.

You can join us for 3 minutes or 3 hours.
We will stream the broadcast and offer meditation spaces for all who wish to participate.

No need to register - just show up whenever you can and stay as long as you wish.

If you are unable to make it to the studio on Wednesday, please consider joining the meditation from wherever you are through the Facebook stream: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1D6zJBRDvt/, and please invite everyone you know to do so as well.

Thank you.
With love and strength,
Anne Witmer and The Practice Space Family

Mindful Movement. Modern Approach. Rooted Tradition.

We are more than a yoga and Pilates studio; we are a community dedicated to education, agency, and practice as a form of social change. Offering over 100 classes per week, we provide mat classes (up to 30 people), small group equipment classes (6 people), and private or semi-private sessions to support every mover’s journey.

As the first studio to offer full-time salaries to yoga and Pilates educators, we’re redefining the relationship between students, teachers, and modern mindful movement. We hope every student who walks through our doors in SE Portland can feel the difference this commitment makes.

We believe in dedicated practice as a commitment to self and community. While we honor and uphold the traditions of yoga and Pilates, we also empower students and teachers to find agency in their movement and embrace a formal, undiluted approach to learning.

Come move with us! Where tradition, education, and social impact meet.
