Gentle: Elemental Water
Beginning with mantra meditation and progressing from free movement to more structured āsana, we invite the water in our bodies and the quality of fluidity to inspire our movement.
Gentle: Earth’s Lullaby
Using the bija mantra for the earth element, meditation, and slow deep stretches and free movement, we commune with the earth. Our experience of grounding, fertility, stability, nourishment and support are invoked, cultivated as well as our energetic connection with the earth below.

Durga, Power and Pulsation
Invoke the goddess Durga using her mantra both at the beginning and end of the practice. Pulsations will allow us to tap into our own inner power and strength, through gentle guided movements.
Joint Mobilization & Kundalini Frogs
In this 50 minute practice meditate for a few minutes then go through all the major joints in the body and move them in all directions to promote lubrication and circulation. Then create full body circulation with kundalini frogs and relax feeling your whole body renewed.
Bliss Pod – Restore
45 minutes of completely chill, relaxing stretches. If you have a bolster or two, that will make your practice more cozy, but not entirely necessary. I’m recovering from the flu, so this practice will be well suited to anyone who is recuperating, fatigued, menstruating, etc. Nourish and soothe yourself with this short asana practice.
Nandi & Om Namah Shivaya
a 60 minute easy class that brings awareness to the whole body. Begin with meditation & mantra, practice about 40 minutes of asana, then a deep savasana.
Build Your Own Practice
Learn some short sequences and then take time to bring them to life in your own body. You will be given enough guidance that you are glad you came to class, and enough freedom that you start to feel what your own yoga feels like in your body – not my idea of yoga, or any other teacher. Start to find your own embodiment!

It will be mostly gentle, with just a few full body circulation moves to get clear, fresh energy moving through our bodies.
Receptivity & Allowing
This slow and mindful practice will focus on repetition and actually holding back – not pushing the stretch, not trying to go deeper, but will rely on returning to each asana meditatively, again and again, to allow ourselves to enter the poses with ease and awareness. Gentle. 60 min.
Open to What Arises
a 60 minute Gentle class (with moderate options given for raising the intensity level) which will focus on inviting whatever emotions are ready to come up and be seen and holding space for these with meditation and āsana. Options will be given to allow emotion to be fully experienced through stillness, movement, posture, mantra and breath.
