Nourish Your 90s Soul Yoga Mixtape with Betty
Friday, May 8th | 6pm-7pm
What nourishes you? Sometimes it's stillness. Sometimes it's movement. And sometimes it's the opening notes of a song you forgot you loved. Betty is bringing the 90s to the mat for a Yoga Mixtape flow rooted in May's theme of Nourishing. This is the kind of practice that feeds your body, lifts your spirit, and reminds you that joy is part of the journey. Come move, remember, and fill your cup.

Flow Under the Full Moon with Betty
Friday, May 29th | 6pm-7:15pm
Full Moons have a way of asking us to pay attention, and the Full Moon in May is no exception.
Join Betty for a special full moon Vinyasa flow built around our May theme of Nourishing. This practice is an invitation to ask yourself: What feeds me? What am I ready to let bloom?
We'll move through a fluid, intentional flow and then settle into an extended savasana, giving your body and mind the space to fully absorb everything you've been growing. Full moons are potent moments of transformation, and this class is designed to meet you right there.
Come as you are. Leave feeling full.

Bloom: A 3-Week Yin Yoga Journey with Ann S
Sundays, May 31st - June 14th | 6pm-7:15pm
Sundays, May 31, June 7 & June 14 | 75 minutes | All levels welcome
Some things can't be rushed. Blooming is one of them.
This three-week Yin series with Ann is an invitation to slow down, go inward, and trust the quiet process of growth that's already happening in you. Inspired by June's theme of Blooming, each class builds gently on the last, moving you from stillness and intention all the way into your fullest expression.
Week 1: Planting Seeds -- Ground yourself, connect to the earth, and set an intention that will carry you through the series.
Week 2: Growing Toward the Light -- Open the body and heart as you begin to expand, soften, and let yourself reach.
Week 3: Full Bloom -- In a story-driven sequence, you'll move through the journey from seed to bloom, arriving at your own opening.
Each session weaves together long-held Yin postures, guided meditation, gentle breathwork, and the sound of singing bowls and chimes. You'll also have time each week for personal reflection with a take-home reflection sheet to carry your practice beyond the mat.
This series is designed for anyone craving stress relief, inner clarity, and a sense of renewal as summer begins. No experience necessary, just a willingness to show up and be still.
Bloom on the Mat~Asana Breakdown (Members Only) with Jami
Saturday, June 6th | 11am-12:30pm
This is a MEMBER-ONLY Pop-Up back by popular demand!
June is our month of Blooming, and real blooming takes root in the details. This member-only pop-up with our anatomy and alignment expert, Jami, is your chance to slow way down and truly understand the poses you've been doing, modifying, or maybe even avoiding.
This is not a flow class. It's a dedicated space to break down the mechanics of specific poses, explore proper alignment, work through modifications, and ask all the questions you never quite get to in a regular class. Whether there's a pose you've been curious about, one that doesn't feel quite right in your body, or one you simply want to understand better, this is the place to dig in.
When you understand your practice from the inside out, you don't just do the poses, you bloom in them.
Come ready to learn, ask questions, and walk away with more confidence and more joy on your mat.

Thriving-A Yin Yoga Practice with Amanda Fey
Friday, July 10th | 6pm-7:15pm
What does it mean to truly thrive...not just get by, but feel rooted, open, and fully alive in your body and your life?
This yin practice is an invitation to slow down and create space for exactly that. Through long-held, grounding postures, we’ll gently release areas where tension, resistance, and stagnation tend to settle. As the body softens, the mind begins to quiet, making room for clarity, steadiness, and a deeper sense of internal support.
Thriving isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about learning how to soften, receive, and support yourself in a more sustainable way.
We’ll close with a 15-minute crystal bowl sound session, giving your body time to integrate the practice, regulate the nervous system, and settle into a deeper state of restoration.
Expect a slow, intentional experience focused on deep release, breath awareness, and stillness. You'll leave you feeling grounded, open, and more connected to your own rhythm.
All levels welcome.

Expect a little sweat and a challenging experience that leaves you feeling strong, capable and thriving.
Please note: Katie is not a formally trained Pilates instructor. She is an experienced Pilates student and will thoughtfully incorporate Pilates-inspired movements into this class.
