Ballast: A Fall Equinox Half-Day
You can usually feel it a week before the calendar confirms it. The light goes slantwise, the air loses its water, and something in you starts moving faster than it needs to. Ayurveda has a name for what's coming: vata season. Dry, cold, windy, fast, scattered. If autumn usually arrives and drags you along with it, you're not doing it wrong — it's a season with a strong personality and no manners.
Ballast is the weight a ship takes on to keep from being blown around. That's what this afternoon is for. We move slowly and with some warmth, I cook lunch for you, I teach you the ayurveda I actually use after twenty-some years of practicing it, and you blend your own oil to take home. Ten of us, in my house, three days before the equinox. You'll go home slower than you came.
Summer Soltice Daylong Retreat
Reconnect with yourself, and the wealth of what lies beneath the surface of your life, in a safe, intimate setting where you’ll be supported and nourished in body, heart, and mind for a deeply soulful, embodied experience.

Ease In the Upper body: How “good posture” doesn’t have to be hard
Many of us try so hard to sit up straight, stand tall and “have good posture.”
More often than not, what all that effort leads to is tension, strain and overworking muscles.
What if it wasn’t so hard?
Deep, Dark Winter Solstice
Imagine dancing candlelight and the grounding hum of singing bowls escorting you into the longest night of the year.
This is a deep & inwardly-focused celebration that invites you to embrace your shadowy parts and welcome the return of the sun. Practice includes moon salutations & yin yoga.
Come celebrate the depths of winter guided by our own light.
All levels welcome.

tight hips
knee issues

It doesn’t matter what age you are — it’s never too late or too early to learn how to balance both strength and release in the hips and core.
Give Yourself a Hand
Simple practices to reduce pain and keep your hands strong and articulate.
Hand and wrist pain affects everything about your daily activities and can make doing the simplest task feel impossible. It’s also common to have elbow, shoulder and/or neck pain related to issues in the hands, which compounds feelings of limitation and discomfort.
Thankfully, taking care of the hands can have a domino effect all the way up to the neck, bringing relief and increased mobility.
Finding Solid Ground (Happy Feet + Healthy Ankles)
Our theme this month at It's All Yoga is Finding Solid Ground.
We are exploring the health of our physical feet with ALL my favorite party tricks for keeping the feet pliable, strong and responsive.
We are also playing with what it's like to feel steady, what helps you feel steady, and how to feel steady even when things around you are not.
Foot month is always a member favorite. This year I am opening up our monthly online Theme Lab for anyone to come!
