It’s beginning to feel a lot like Spring!!!🌱

Save the date and join Izzy plus other Kirtan lovers for a Community Kirtan Class Saturday March 21 11a-12p to celebrate the Spring Equinox!

Kirtan is call and response chanting accompanied by musical instruments like the harmonium, drums, and shakers. Kirtan, as a Bhakti Yoga practice generates a collective Bhav, or feelings of love and belonging. Singing in community is soothing for the nervous system and quickly builds a sense of connectedness.

This is a donation based event. All donations will go towards and her meal train as she prepares for maternity leave. đź’•

This Valentine’s Day, you’re invited into a heart-centered breathwork journey—an offering of self-love, presence, and deeper connection.

Guided by Liz and Brad, this gentle yet powerful practice uses conscious breathing to quiet the mind, soften the nervous system, and release stored emotion—bringing you back home to your body and heart.

Come solo in devotion to yourself, or alongside a partner or loved one to deepen emotional intimacy and connection.

To close, Brad will offer a live acoustic serenade, creating a tender integration and making this a beautiful pre–Valentine’s Day dinner ritual.

This experience is for you if you’re longing to:
• Release stuck energy
• Reconnect with intuition and body wisdom
• Cultivate self-love, clarity, and emotional ease

Please bring an eye mask along with your mat. Blankets are provided.

Many of us have been stuck this past week, whether at home or elsewhere due to weather, or maybe just rightfully stuck in our feelings and mutual grief. Reflecting has left us feeling grateful for every opportunity that we are gifted with to uplift each other in community.

Due to recent events, we have been reflecting on how we can best support our Dojo and Theta family, as well as the broader community. We believe that providing a safe space for social support is the most effective way for us to continue to uplift those around us.

The Yoga Dojo and Theta Wellness will be open tomorrow, January 30, to provide you with support should you decide to venture out and visit your favorite yoga teacher, massage therapist, or esthetician. We will donate 20% of sales to the Richmond Community Legal Fund and the Sacred Heart Center. Additionally, proceeds from our donation-based classes held between January 24 through the end of February will be donated directly to these organizations.

With our love, support and solidarity always and in all ways. đź–¤
