w/NYA PATRINOS

"Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation - which had become official January 1, 1863. . . ."

w/GINA TING CALLENDER

Yoga shouldn't be a luxury, rather it should be a practice that we all embody to help us relieve stress and restore the body. We will start with a few Yin yoga poses to get deep into our hips and heart...places most people hold tension. Followed by a gentle restorative practice to help heal our bodies. We will finish our practice with a meditation to accept the emotions we have and meet them with compassion and empathy. I hope you will join me for this practice and please share with your family and friends.

Bikram Yoga is a series made up of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises. Every posture, except the final posture — the spinal twist, is done twice, so there is always a second chance to improve your alignment and to go deeper

This yoga is designed for you–whether you are a beginner or experienced yogi; whether you wish to reduce symptoms of chronic illnesses or wish to do yoga as preventative medicine. Not only does the body improve, but you can begin to focus more, breath more deeply, and ultimately learn how to find calm in not-so-calm situations!

w/EPHIE QUILES

My MPS (modified primary series) sessions start with Sun Salutations to warm up the body, followed by standing series postures to promote balance, detoxification and symmetry  in the body. The next part of class is a deeper focus on seated postures with the intention of keeping poses modified and accessible to each student's individual level. A seated meditation will be followed by savasana to conclude the practice leaving you feeling refreshed and hopefully in a state of happy bliss. 

See you on the mat!

w/KIMBERLY JAMES

KAP stands for Kundalini Activation Process and is a direct Kundalini Transmission that activates the Awakening of your Kundalini energy. This is an intelligent energy, and a safe, natural process that does just what your system needs in any given moment. This is a transmission process, not a self-generated process. It is a path of surrender (not a path of the will) that creates possibilities for healing, higher states of consciousness and a deeper connection to source. This is not Kundalini yoga. Detailed description is available on the Eventbrite page.

w/DIONNE C MONSANTO

Bikram yoga is a series made up of 26 poses and 2 breathing exercises. Every posture, except the final posture — the spinal twist, is done twice, so there is always a second chance to improve your alignment and to go deeper. The class is conducted in a heated room in order to warm you up from the inside out, bones to skin. This makes it easier to stretch tendons and muscles and helps to prevent injury or over-strain. Bikram yoga’s twenty-six posture exercises systematically move fresh, oxygenated blood to one hundred percent of your body, to each organ and fiber, restoring all systems to healthy working order while promoting proper weight, muscle tone, vibrant good health, and a sense of well-being.

w/BONNEY BARNES

Join us for a relaxing and peaceful celebration of Juneteenth.....we deserve more relaxation opportunities...

By adding, increasing or changing the amount of time we allow our-self to relax will help us to reset and refresh. If our mind is calm, we can evaluate our daily tasks, projects and problems more quickly than if we’re burdened with unnecessary and often unrelated worries. Decide to include Movement, Meditation and Mindfulness into your day. Find a comfortable space in the middle and prepare to warm up your body with a Yogik Rhythms experience.....an all levels class that begins with centering and attention to breath....class proceeds into a gentle warm up to loosen the joints and warm up the body for a Yogik flow, calm and therapeutic in nature, very beneficial for stress relief and overall well-being. This class allows you the freedom to explore your own body and choose your level of physical challenge.

After a few warm-ups we will sit in a mediation designed to open the heart center for mercy and compassion, followed by an extended gong sound healing immersion.

The gong impacts the body and its meridians. It releases blocks, reduces tension and stimulates circulation. The result of this is a reorganization of the emotional energy and feelings that are tied into the body structure. This class is designed to regenerate the nervous system and useful for anyone who needs to resist the ravages of stress.

“What if rather than being disheartened by the ambiguity, the uncertainty of life, we accepted it and relaxed into it?” -Pema Chodron

Yin Yoga taps deep in the physical body as well as enhancing deep into the energy body. In this class we will hold poses for a period of time allowing the you to feel the physical sensation, become aware of mental agitation, and ultimately surrender to the present moment.

w/SARAH MOTTA

This is a place to connect to the Friday zoom divine feminine decolonising yoga sessions I am offering for BIPOC folks and trusted accomplices who we consider kin.

We need safe spaces where we can practice and share healing justice work. We need to be held so we can (re)connect to our deep embodied wisdoms and our infinite connections to the ancestors and Madre Tierra/Country.

My intention is to hold such a space and energy and to embody this healing work through my offering of decolonising feminine divine yoga. This yoga praxis builds on the feminine lineages of my peoples and reconnection to the ancestral Black/Indigenous Mother who connects us all and who is returning to presence in these times of transformation and our collective liberation.

Sessions combine shapes (in the Forrest, Yin and Tantra traditions), breath, ritual and sacred energy to support our ongoing justice work to decolonise ourselves and return to wholeness which is our birthright. Each session will work with a different energy/emotion so for example it may be coming back into our body, working with courage/fear, embodying our joy.

No previous yoga experience necessary.
