About the event
This is an opportunity to begin your day with presence, breath, and movement as you attune to the wisdom of your body and the stillness within. We’ll start with a few quiet moments to arrive, ground, and connect to breath, then move into a slow, fluid sequence designed to awaken awareness and cultivate inner calm. Each posture flows into the next, creating a seamless rhythm of motion and mindfulness that supports nervous system regulation, emotional balance, and mental clarity. We’ll close with time for intuitive movement or stillness, followed by a restful savasana to absorb the practice.
As with all yoga classes, the invitation is ALWAYS to tune into your body’s needs in the moment. You are encouraged to move at your own pace, pause when needed, or adapt the practice to honor how you’re feeling. Yoga is an invitation to listen inward, moment by moment, with curiosity, compassion, and care.
Although this class includes clear guidance in movement, alignment, and breath, it is not about performance or striving. It’s about showing up as you are, remembering your wholeness, and letting each breath carry you closer to yourself. The intention is for the practice to leave you more awake and alive in your body, calm and clear in your mind, and open and connected in your heart.
