Men's Nude Yoga

Please note that this class is open only to those have been vaccinated. Proof of vaccination required. Please check out our virtual yoga offerings if you are not yet vaccinated.

Class Description:

This is an all levels (beginner to advanced) vinyasa-style nude yoga class for all body types.

The class opens with some grounding, moves into some flow and concludes with floor-based stretches. The class is about honoring your body where it is at on that day. Wherever you are at on your yoga journey is what we will work with and honor in each class.

Our nude yoga teacher for the evening is Evan who will guide you through practice and is there to make sure we find ways to honor your body and strike a balance between over exertion and not being challenged enough. For each student this may look slightly different.

Proof of Vaccination

This event is for men who have been vaccinated. Please bring a copy of your vaccination card or Excelsior Pass (or other government vaccine passport).

FAQs:

Do I need to have yoga experience or skills already?

No yogic experience is necessary. Evan does an assessment of the skill level at the beginning of each class and makes sure beginners have extra attention. All yoga practitioners are encouraged to listen and sometimes watch in order to learn. Ultimately trusting your own body is key. From beginner to more seasoned yogi, if you ever get tired or need a break, you are encouraged to just rest on your mat until you’re ready to begin again.

What type of guys attend your class?

We get a diverse group of guys mostly ranging in age from twenties to sixties. While some of our regular attendees are dedicated yogis, we take pride in welcoming and celebrating all male bodies. Every body is a yogi body. Whether you work out regularly or this is your first time moving in a while, you are welcome to join. We have all shapes, all sizes, and all ability levels in class. All men are welcome.

How many guys attend your class?

We usually get 10-15 guys per class. (N.B. Our classes often sell out, so make sure to secure a seat via an Eventbrite ticket.)

Do I need to be naked?

Yes, this is a nude yoga class, so everyone is expected to be naked. If you feel a little shy or apprehensive about joining, that is normal. We get a good group of friendly and welcoming guys; you’ll be in a supportive community. If you need to take time by practicing at first in underwear (or a jockstrap) and working your way through the class to full nudity, that is allowed as well.

What should I bring?

Since it’s a nude yoga class, you don’t need to bring much.

• Mats/Blocks/Straps are provided in the studio for free. If you want to bring your own that’s fine too.

• You can bring a water bottle if you want, but there is a water cooler and cups in the studio.

• You can bring a towel if you wish to shower before or after class (or rent a towel at the studio for $2).

What if I get aroused in class?

For many of us it’s natural to have feelings of arousal or erotic energy while in a room full of naked men. There is no shame in that! These feelings could even arise in a co-ed clothed yogic space. That energy is a welcome, beautiful energy which we will encourage you to channel back into your yoga practice. In the rare case in which erections do happen, no worries: they go back down! :-)

Evan’s Bio

Evan has been a daily practitioner of yoga since early 2016. Yoga has been truly transformational for him physically and beyond. It has helped him manage anxiety, find faith in himself, and experience balance in life. Since committing to a consistent yoga practice, he has been empowered to take chances he never would have dreamed of before. It has taught him to see his fears, acknowledge them, but never let them have control. Yoga has given him the confidence to believe in himself and settle for nothing less than my own worth.

He would be honored and humbled to share these practices with you, so that you too can find the strength to embrace your own power and worth.
