Vishoka: Cultivating Inner Radiance for Stability, Vitality & A Clear Mind
This three-hour workshop offers an accessible introduction to Vishoka, an essential yogic approach to cultivating inner radiance, emotional balance, and a clear, steady mind - supporting purposeful action, genuine connection, and a renewed sense of joy in daily life.
Designed for practitioners of all backgrounds, the session begins with a brief introduction to core yogic principles that support nervous system stabilization, vitality, and mental clarity. These teachings help participants understand why the mind can feel unsettled and how embodied practices create the inner conditions necessary for focus, resilience, and ease.
The experiential portion includes breath-led vinyasa to ground and stabilize the nervous system, a Kundalini Kriya to build vitality and inner strength, and breathwork practices that support emotional balance and mental coherence. The workshop culminates in a guided Vishoka meditation, offering a direct experience of calm, luminous awareness.
Teachings woven throughout the session highlight a central insight: inner stability is not a personal luxury, but the foundation for skillful engagement, ethical action, and service in the world. When we cultivate clarity and steadiness within, we naturally show up with greater presence, care, and responsiveness in our communities.
The workshop concludes with a short Q&A to support integration and next steps.

Yoga | Aging: Perimenopause & the Art of Transitions
What the #@&%! is happening?
Who am I now?
Where did my energy, vitality, and sense of purpose go?

If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone. Perimenopause often arrives quietly—until suddenly we realize we’re in the middle of it. The shifts can touch every part of us: body, sleep, mood, resilience, identity.

In this half-day immersion, we’ll explore how yoga can support us through seasons of change—whether you’re in perimenopause, post-menopause, or simply navigating the transitions that come with aging and evolving. Through movement, breath, rest, and reflection, we’ll practice meeting change with steadiness rather than resistance.

Together we’ll work with:
Stability — grounding the nervous system, finding steadiness in the body and emotions

Strength — supporting muscle, bone, and resilience through sustainable, intelligent movement

Sustainability — learning rest practices to support sleep, stress regulation, and recovery

This offering centers the lived experience of women while welcoming others who want to understand the transitions more than half of the population moves through—and how to support partners, friends, and themselves through change with more care and awareness.

Come as you are. This is a space to move, rest, ask honest questions, and meet this stage of life with more clarity, compassion, and strength.

The Holy Wake-Up Call: A Mid-Life Awakening
Have you ever felt like a cosmic 2x4 hit you across the head, often labeled as a mid-life crisis? Join this interactive lecture and discover the wisdom that yoga offers to view midlife not as a crisis, but as a profound opportunity for self-discovery and alignment with what truly matters. According to yogic teachings, we go through four distinct stages (ashrama) in a lifetime. Now is the time to stand for who you are, who you want to become, and to live in accordance with the season of your life. Dive into the conversation, gather yogic wisdom, maybe even laugh and embrace midlife as a sacred wake-up call.

Bandha: The Seals of Transformation
Bandha are energetic seals or locks that we can create through isolated muscular actions in the body.  They are most commonly referenced in support of alignment in asana, but three of them can take us beyond the physical and into the subtle dimension of prana.  It is said that our vital force is diffused and thus, less potent, and that this has a direct impact on the mind’s potential.  Harnessing the power of bandha can enable us to focus prana and facilitate the deepest levels of purification and transformation, enlivening and empowering all that we give our energy and attention to.  This class will involve practices that interweave asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, mantra and meditation

Align Your Words Like You Align Your Posture
This workshop is designed to bridge the gap between your yoga practice and your relationships.
You stretch your hamstrings. You strengthen your core. But how often do you practice the flexibility of your mind and the strength of your empathy? Why is it so easy to find balance on the mat, but so hard to keep it in our conversations?
Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is often called the "Yoga of Speech." It helps us navigate conflict without losing our center.
Stop leaving your yoga on the mat. Come learn how to:
  • Untie the Knots: Identify the hidden needs behind your "negative" emotions so you can respond rather than react.
  • Find Your Center in Conflict: Learn to speak your truth clearly without blaming or shaming others.
  • Deepen Your Relational Flow: Transform arguments into opportunities for intimacy and connection.
This isn’t a lecture—it’s a lab. We will roll up our sleeves (and unroll our mats) to practice the art of compassionate speech.
Are you ready to stretch your heart as deep as your hamstrings?

Sankalpa: Empowering the Link Between Intention and Manifestation
Yoga teaches us that the practice is, at one level, a union between mind and energy.  That which intends and that which creates.  Every waking moment is a play between the two, orchestrated by a succession of choices which determine the very course of our lives - our destiny.  Through modern neuroscience and the yogic lens, we’ll explore how we can we move from habitual, unconscious choices to ones that are empowered with creativity and purpose.  This class will involve practices that interweave asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, mantra and meditation.

Pratyahara: Reclaiming Inner Sovereignty (Yoga Nidra)
In a world where there is a competition for our attention, an overabundance of information streams to process and excessive stimulation nearly everywhere we turn, it is perhaps more critical than ever to resource tools that help us regain control over our inner state. Let’s explore simple practices for self-regulation, the related science, and experience the profound benefits of slowing down.  Understand how this sets the foundation for our outer-actions becoming an embodiment of peace, empathy and compassion.  This class will involve practices that interweave asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, mantra and yoga nidra.
