WORKSHOPS
What is the difference between a Yoga Workshop and a Yoga class?
A yoga workshop is traditionally longer than a yoga class usually about 2 hours and gives us aditional time to dive deep into ideas or break down postures and play around with them. The class may not be as fluid as usually but the intention is to experience some break throughs that will change the way we practice in our normal classes

90 mins. $25. 10 am.
Students: Open to all.
Sankalpa is a Sanskrit word that means "intention" or "resolve". It's a practice in yogic and Vedic traditions that involves creating a long-term goal to align your actions, beliefs, and thoughts with your deepest aspirations.
The word "Sankalpa" comes from the Sanskrit words "San," which means "connection" or "union," and "Kalpa," which means "intention" or "vow".
In this workshop students can expect a journalling exercise, dharma talk, flow, and meditation to help start 2025 with clarity and intention that will last.
Please bring a notebook and a pen!

Wednesday 1/8 Goddess Series with Maddie pt. 3
In this series, we will gather together through the ancient art of story telling and explore the myths surrounding different asana. You may have heard your teachers que Hanumanasana (split), Bhujangasana (cobra), Vrikshasana (tree), and Navasana (boat), but do you know the myths these poses are named after? Or their significance outside of how it fits into a flow sequence?
Learn the myth, embody it in your practice, and dance with the many guises of Shiva off the mat.
Included in TLY membership or $25 without membership.
75 minutes.

Saturday 1/12 Moving into Stillness with Amy Stephanik

"Explore a unique Meditative Posture Flow. Deepen your Yoga & Meditation practice with a blend of Pranayama, Asana & Stillness. You will be slowly guided through various yoga breathing techniques that will be woven into yoga poses. The technique of blending breath and movement serves as a guiding light towards stillness for the body and the mind. "Through the mastery of the prana, or energy of the body, we can then easily master the control of the mind and obtain success with Meditation". Join me for this mini journey inward.
Some yoga experience recommended."

Ayurveda says we have 5 main elements present within us and around us at all times. Earth, Fire, Air, Water & Ether. This workshop shows us how these elements show up in our yoga practcie through movements, breathwork, sound, emotions, mantra, and oils.

We will move through a brief flow and meditation on each element to feel them in our bodies.
