If you’ve ever tried a Yin class and thought, “Why are we in this position for so long?” or “I don’t get the purpose of this,” this session is for you. This session has been designed to make Yin yoga feel approachable, supportive, and meaningful. Rather than simply moving through long-held poses, we’ll take time to explore the why behind the practice so you can feel more comfortable, confident, and connected in your body. You’ll learn how Yin works on the body's deeper tissues, how to find your personal edge without strain, and how to use props and breath to support your experience. We’ll pause, check in, and adjust along the way, creating space for questions, curiosity, and understanding. Yin Yoga Foundations | Beginners | 7:45pm - 8:45pm Tue, Aug 11, 2026

Join Meg for a 90-minute exploration of the subtle body, guided by breath, mindful movement, and inner awareness.

Open to all levels, this practice is especially supportive if you’re craving conscious movement and energetic alignment. Awaken + Align | 10:30am - 12:00pm | Sat, Aug 8, 2026
