Holy Yoga 101

Sunday, January 11, 2015


Friends, it's almost here and I could not be more excited. So many of you stay after class week after week and ask so many of the same questions. What I'm hearing is that you want to learn more. You want to grown in your knowledge of yoga and you want to make sure that what you're learning is good and safe. Me TOO!!

So starting Friday, January 16th in both my morning and evening classes, we're going to take a break from our regular flow. For the next four weeks we're going to talk through the history and benefits of a regular yoga practice. We're going to break down primary poses and I'll be helping with adjustments. The last week, we'll talk through breath work and meditation and the importance of both in a regular yoga practice. 

If you or anyone you know has been interested but just didn't know where to start, this is your starting place. This is a safe and welcome environment for you to bring your questions. And your friends!

All you need is yourself! Please wear something that's comfortable to move in and if you have a mat, bring it. If you have any questions on location, please feel free to email me or comment below. 

I can't wait to meet you on the mat so we can grow and stretch together!

Doing a New Thing: January Playlist & Schedule

Thursday, January 1, 2015

"This is what God says,
    the God who builds a road right through the ocean,
    who carves a path through pounding waves,
The God who summons horses and chariots and armies—
    they lie down and then can’t get up;
    they’re snuffed out like so many candles:
“Forget about what’s happened;
    don’t keep going over old history.
Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new.
    It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it?
There it is! I’m making a road through the desert,
    rivers in the badlands.
Wild animals will say ‘Thank you!’
    —the coyotes and the buzzards—
Because I provided water in the desert,
    rivers through the sun-baked earth,
Drinking water for the people I chose,
    the people I made especially for myself,
    a people custom-made to praise me."

Isaiah 43:16-21 (The Message)

So, it's January. It's a fresh new start. And it's the perfect time to do something new, find new space, open your heart to places it's been closed to ... 

For me, I'm making 2015 the year of healthy and whole. God and I spent a lot of 2013/14 in places of refinement. It was hard, but it was oh so good. He's brought some things to the surface that need dealing with. Two big things for me: Love Well, Live Well. That may sound simple, but for me, well there is a journey ahead. I'll tell you more about that later. 

For now: Here is our January Yoga Playlist. I hope that you enjoy and open your heart, open your lungs, reach your hands open wide toward the heavens and praise Him with all you have. 




As always, if you want the yoga that goes with the playlist, please check the schedule below. If you're local and need more info, please comment or email me. I'll be happy to help!

January 12th there will be no evening Yoga. It's our Team Lean Kickoff! I hope to see you all there. We'd love to come alongside you in making 2015 the healthiest year yet!

Also, I'll be teaching Yoga 101 for any of you who are interested in yoga but have been afraid to try. This would be a great place to start. Check back for details on times.
