SUPPORTED NAVASANA

Using a strap in boat pose isn’t necessarily easier, but more intentional.

It offers feedback, stability, and space so your core can engage without gripping or collapsing.

Find balance on your sitting bones, and you may even experience a few moments of effortless Navasana, supported and steady.

𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚 – 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐲𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐃

A variation where the bottom leg doesn’t need to be in half lotus.

Options to explore:
• Elbow to knee
• Hug the front leg
• Bottom leg extended

The counter-rotation of the torso remains, honoring the intention of the pose.

Some days we deepen.
Some days we adapt.

Find your edge — or choose ease.
Your practice is your guru.
Your guru is within.

First class of Adaptive + Experiential Ashtanga ✨

So grateful to begin this journey with these beautiful people.

Adaptive Ashtanga preserves the structure and discipline of the traditional method while making it accessible to every body. We thoughtfully adjust pacing, modify postures, and use support to respect individual anatomy and capacity.

Experiential Ashtanga shifts the focus from doing or executing poses to sensing them. Through breath, attention, and mindful repetition, we cultivate interoceptive and proprioceptive awareness—training the nervous system to adjust, regulate, and respond under challenge.

In this class, props are not a shortcut. They are intelligent tools. We use bricks, blankets, straps, chairs, and the wall to build strength, mobility, and resilience safely and progressively.

This is not about achieving the pose.
It’s about cultivating adaptive capacity—on the mat and in everyday life.

So proud of this beginning 💛

If you’re navigating change, this is your reminder:
You don’t need to “get somewhere.”
You don’t need to fix yourself.
You don’t need to become someone else.

You don’t need perfect circumstances to be at peace. You find peace by being present within imperfect ones.

Meditation keeps teaching me this.
We don’t sit to become someone better.
We sit to remove the noise.
The doubts.
The roles.
The pressure to perform.
And underneath all that…
there you are.
Not a new you.
Not an improved you.
Just the real you steady, aware, enough.
Every time you return to the breath, you’re not building something.
You’re remembering something.
Your most grounded self.
Your most honest self.
Your essential self.
That’s the practice.
Less fixing.
More uncovering.
If you’ve been feeling disconnected, try 5 quiet minutes today.
Not to change who you are, but to meet who you’ve always been.

Online Yoga Classes

Some people think online yoga isn’t the same. And yes… it’s different.

But different doesn’t mean less useful or less beneficial.
Online yoga gives you consistency. It meets you where you are. It removes the stress of commuting, rushing, or skipping practice when life gets busy.

You still breathe.
You still move.
You still build awareness, strength, and resilience.

Online yoga isn’t a replacement.
It’s a doorway to a practice that fits modern life.
It couldn’t be more relevant than today — with a big snowstorm in West Chester, PA. Stay warm, and drive safely if you have to. ❄️

Thank you, & .ve , for your eagerness to learn, your open mind, and for not resisting what feels new or uncomfortable, while still being mindful of your body.
Namaste 🙏

How do you spot a yogi in the weight room? 😂😂😂

I do this most of the time I go to the gym in my building. Today I suddenly realized it might look a little awkward from the outside 😅

I’ve seen way more interesting things than this. So I know I’m not the only one.

Movement is personal.
And once yoga lives in your body… it shows up everywhere.

Please tell me I am not the only one who turns the gym into a playground! 🙏
