Summer is the fire season -- a time of increased clarity and consciousness. A time to assimilate unprocessed life experiences, and digest what may be otherwise be difficult and transmute it into something new. A time to let the outer light bolster your inner light; a time to strengthen digestion, relationship to self & others, and to explore how passion & play show up in your life.

We will explore how tejas, inner light, can be honored and celebrated as the sun reaches its highest point on the solstice.

Align with the strength & vitality of the season while illuminating shadow aspects of self or experience that may be blocking you from shining brightly. Prepare for a deep dive into your heart, your soul, and your body to awaken and spark what has been sleepy or hidden.

Learn best practices for seasonal harmony, including:

*Ayurvedic wisdom rituals
*Somatic explorations
*Cooling Breathwork
*Calming meditation

Ignite your yoga practice with the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda! Spring is known as a time of new beginnings and growth; it can also be governed by qualities that can promote stagnation or heaviness due to the strong presence of earth and water.

Doing so allows us to create a strong, vital foundation and supportive structure for our inner and outer health.

Spring is a time of renewal, rebirth and growth. As the Earth thaws and sheds the cloak of winters depth, we are asked to do the same; welcoming back warmth and light.

Through the healing fusion of yoga, Ayurveda, and Tarot, we will create a container to explore the energy of the season.

The breath is an important part of our yoga practice, but why? Prana, the vital force; and ayama, expansion or control; teach us that we have the ability to both expand and amplify our vital energy, as well as consciously control and direct it. Either way, our inherent juiciness is increased by connecting to the breath.

This workshop will focus on powerful and accessible techniques designed to nurture, balance, and vitalize you to the fullest based on time of day and season. We will explore the three doshas Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, and learn how to harness the unique subtle energy within. You will cultivate integrated Pranayama techniques for your daily life and yoga practice. A modern and fun approach will be given to the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, the lifestyle of yoga, to empower you to go to deeper into your practice -- when we let prana lead the way, our potential for growth, healing, and exploration is significantly increased.

Reserve your spot, as space is limited for this one!

Over time, our experiences get embedded in the tissues of the physical body: our body becomes a literal map or representation of what is occurring for us on deeper levels of our experience. In this workshop, we will explore the value of settling into stillness as we target the energetic meridians of the body that correspond to physical, emotional, mental, and energetic well-being. In going deep into our holistic, lived experience through the body, we have access to stored or repressed elements of self -- aka, our "shadow" -- those pieces of our lived experience or ourselves that present a challenge; that are unfamiliar; or that have not yet been fully integrated.

The idea of the shadow may sound intriguing or intimidating because it has not yet been explored as a valuable aspect of one's experience -- and this workshop will provide you with the opportunity to explore what wisdom the shadow is trying to offer you. The yin yoga practice itself could be called a shadow of our more active yoga and movement practices. It provides the space and the opportunity to create balance through slowing down, tuning in, and listening to what arises in the moment. As we dig into the philosophy and practice of yin yoga, we will work on integrating all parts of experience in order to come into a sense of fullness. You can expect to leave this workshop with tools on how to stay present with a broader range of sensation, feeling, and thought and a newfound sense of clarity.

In addition, you will learn:

• the underlying philosophy of yin yoga

• how to define and identify what shadow is

• what shadow is trying to communicate to you

• how the practice of yin is complementary to the psycho-emotional exploration of shadow and other stored experiences or emotions

Summer is often a time of excitement, engagement, and play! Nature celebrates herself in the summer season with abundant sunshine, vibrant colors, and fresh produce. In turn, we too feel pulled to engage with ourselves and the world around us in more active ways. This season is a powerful time for accessing your vitality & strength, enjoying time outdoors, and spending time with others. However, it may also create excessive heat & movement, irritiability, or exhaustion due to the increased presence of the fire element, or Pitta dosha.

Stay calm, cool, and collected this summer as you gain the knowledge to apply the most effective seasonal tools to your yoga practice and lifestyle. You will learn to cultivate balance and ease this summer through a soothing, cooling, refreshing, and restorative practice filled with calming asana, pranayama, meditation and discussion. Learn how to self-soothe and regulate in order to tap into your own natural rhythm for clarity, strength, and peace.

This workshop will soften you from the inside out, balance and replenish your body, and empower you to live and practice with greater ease. This is balancing and replenishing for all, no matter what your dominant dosha or imbalance may be. We are all affected by the seasons; therefore, we will focus on best practices and techniques to stay vibrant and healthy season to season. Please wear comfortable clothing that is easily moved out of the way, as we will end with a cooling and refreshing self-oil massage, abhyanga.

In addition, you will learn:

• The 5 elements of Ayurveda and the 3 Doshas

• Lifestyle, diet, and herbal support for Pitta season

• How to adjust your yoga practice for the summer season

The winter season is a time of coolness, darkness, slowness, and stillness. We see this around us in nature as the fast pace of the fall season, filled with change, begins to settle. Once the movement of the fall harvest, colorful leaves, and fluctuating weather settles, we are invited to do the same: winter is a time to rest in order to create space for yourself and your deepest visions to manifest. This time of year is potent for harnessing intuition and mobilizing your creativity and emotional intelligence, but it may also promote feelings of coldness, lethargy, or stuckness.

Find balance and ease this winter through a warming, invigorating, and expansive practice filled with nourishing asana, pranayama, meditation and discussion. We will focus on ways to create your own inner light and warmth this time of year, as the external light and warmth wanes. Learn the wisdom of slowing down and turning within to find your own natural rhythm, deepest sense of self, clarity, and strength. This workshop will enliven you from the inside out, balance and replenish your body, and empower you to live and practice with greater ease. We will end our time together with a mini self-oil massage, abhyanga, so please bring clothing that is easily moved out of the way to access the arms, hands, legs, and feet.

This is balancing and replenishing for all, no matter what your dominant dosha or imbalance may be. We are all affected by the seasons; therefore, we will focus on best practices and techniques to stay vibrant and healthy season to season. 

Fall is governed by Vata dosha, which is composed of the elements ether and air. We see this around us in nature as summer's vibrant harvest transitions and beings to change, release, cool down, and dry up. This period of transition is ripe for releasing habituated patterns in your life, but it may also promote feelings of ungroundedness, lightness, or disconnection due to the dominance of air and movement, both externally and internally. 

You will be guided through a deeply nourishing, grounding, and soothing practice, including warming asana; pranayama; meditation; and discussion. We will focus on ways to release what is needed and keep what is nourishing in service of staying stable and steady during seasons of change. This workshop will settle you from the inside out empower you to live and practice with greater ease. We will end our time together with a mini self-oil massage, abhyanga, so please bring clothing that is easily moved out of the way to access the arms, hands, legs, and feet. 

This is balancing and replenishing for all, no matter what your dominant dosha or imbalance may be. We are all affected by the seasons; therefore, we will focus on best practices and techniques to stay vibrant and healthy season to season.
