The first step to creating change is feeling ready to change. The second is to make space and time for this change to happen, and the third is orienting yourself in the direction you want to go. Join studio co-owners Lies Sapp and Sage Rountree in this workshop that will help you with all three.
Over two hours together, we will:
- Set a collective intention toward growth
- Let go of what we’re carrying and want to set down
- Turn toward what we want to bring in and plan first next steps to getting there
We’ll do this through:
+ friendly group discussion
+ journaling
+ very gentle movement
+ simple breath exercises
+ guided meditation
You’ll leave with an open heart and mind, and a clear path toward
creating positive change in your life. Bring your journal, tablet,
or laptop for writing, and dress in layers for coziness.
Join Amy and Alexis for a 2-hour restorative yoga workshop. This workshop will lead students into deep relaxation and rest. By allowing the body to rest, we allow the body to heal. This practice will help to activate and balance the parasympathetic nervous system, which reduces fatigue, anxiety, and stress, and promotes overall well-being.
All restorative poses are done seated or lying down, with the use of props to support the body. Each pose will be held for 10-15 minutes, allowing plenty of time to settle into each pose to find restoration, peace, and ease of the body and mind.
As Amy and Alexis are both yoga teachers and massage therapists, this workshop will include gentle touch during each pose, with your expressed consent. Great for all experience levels, especially for those looking for nourishment and self-care. Join us to rest, relax and restore!
Our next foundational 200-hour yoga teacher training begins in August 2024! Come chat with lead teacher Alexandra DeSiato in this free information session. Alexandra will talk about what she wishes she had known before she started her first YTT, what goes on in the classroom, and next steps after the program. You’ll also get to chat with other prospective trainees.
Feel free to register—or simply walk in, we'll be there!
Practicing yoga can be a powerful
way to help yourself heal after loss. Whether your loss is the
death of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, or
surviving a major health crisis or traumatic event, the grief
process is often slow and meandering. Yoga can help to comfort you
in times of sadness and grief, to feel connection or closure with
who or what is lost, and to open your heart and be in the
present.
This ongoing workshop helps students develop a toolkit for
resilient grieving, including yoga and movement, breathwork,
meditation and reflection, journaling, and the company of others
experiencing loss. Join Joe-Paul and this yoga group of students
addressing grief, adjusting to a new world after loss, and focusing
on renewal and investment in health and relationships.
Whether you call it midsummer's
day, la Fête de la Musique, or even the Feast of Saint John the
Baptist (almost), the summer solstice contains more hours between
sunrise and sunset than any other day in the northern hemisphere.
Join Joe-Paul in a yoga workshop designed to celebrate the longest
day of the year, to focus on expressing joy, and to welcome new
beginnings.
This workshop will begin with
quiet reflection and slow and gentle dance-like movements giving
rise to vigorous sun salutations and standing sequences. We'll
explore balancing poses to reflect the tension between day and
night and the harmony of yin and yang. The pace of the workshop
will then slow down, shifting to quiet yin shapes and a final
restorative pose.
Whether your solstice celebration is as simple as doing a little dance in bare feet or entails energetic sun salutations and balance, join Joe-Paul and fellow students at Carrboro Yoga Company in letting your inner sun shine on one of the most celebrated days in the world.
