Advanced training does not mean advanced asana. Rather, we refine and delve deeper into the foundations learned in the 200 hour training. Only continued exploration, questioning and discussion will foster the growth of your practice and teaching. These 8 sessions encompass a range of topics that will help you connect to your practice and better see your students. As teachers and individuals, we must continually find ways to spark self-examination and evolution.

A workshop series for those women who give everything to their loved ones, work, and their communities, but struggle with finding time or space to slow down and truly nourish themselves. They are tired of feeling disconnected from their bodies and out of touch with what they truly need.

Rest, Revive, Thrive, a monthly mini-wellness retreat, helps these women cultivate the resilience and tools they need to reset, revive, and thrive. Each session combines somatic practices, mindful movement and creative exercises to teach embodied tools designed to regulate the nervous system and find genuine restoration, not just surface level relaxation. All of this takes place in a supportive community with like-minded women. Each month will focus on a different theme and/or wellness tool that you can take into your daily life.

Join Elise in our candlelit studio for gentle restorative postures, a guided yoga nidra practice and the tones of the crystal sound bowls.

Yoga nidra aka “yogic sleep,” is a guided meditation practice that is done lying down in savasana, and is designed to bring the practitioner to a place between sleep and wakefulness.

Combined with the healing vibrations of the crystal sound bowls, this powerful, nervous system soothing practice may ease struggles with stress, insomnia, anxiety, chronic pain, burnout, overwhelm, exhaustion and more. You will leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated - one hour of yoga nidra is said to be equivalent to 3-4 hours of deep, restful sleep.

All levels welcome. Dress for comfort and bring additional cozy props like blankets, pillows and eye masks if you like!
