Tight from sitting, workouts, or life? Join us for our 4-week flexibility series—The Science of Stretching—where all are welcome. This evidence-based flexibility method uses 2–5 minute passive holds to increase range of motion, with a focus on the hamstrings, hips, spine, and shoulders and plenty of props and options for every body. Each week you’ll enjoy grounding + science snapshot, a supportive practice, and time for reflection. Give your body the gift of spaciousness—no matter your age, shape, or experience—as we blend the latest research with compassionate, prop-supported practice to help every BODY feel a little lighter and a lot more at ease. Chairs, blocks, and straps available.Why You’ll Love It:
Inclusive & Accessible – Options for chairs, bolsters, straps, and creative supports welcome brand-new yogis, weekend warriors, and seasoned movers alike.

Science-Backed Results – Long-hold, passive stretching has been shown to increase range of motion and reduce tension in as little as four weeks.

Lasting Take-Home Tools – Leave each class with a short, doable practice (about 15 minutes) that slots seamlessly into busy schedules.
What to Expect Each Week:

15-Minute Welcome & Mini-Lesson
Settle in with breath awareness, connect with the group, and explore a bite-sized science topic.
65-Minute Guided Stretch Practice
Relax into supported holds (2–5 minutes each) that lovingly target the four most common “sticky” spots—hamstrings, hips, spine, and shoulders. Multiple variations and plenty of props mean you’ll always have a version that feels right for you.
10-Minute Reflection & Q&A
Journal, share wins and challenges, and pick up take-home tips for daily practice
Please bring a journal or notebook and pen, water bottle and come wearing comfortable or athletic clothes.
Join us Sundays, October 26th-November 16th, 12:30 – 2:00pm
FEE: $100 for full series; single session drop in $30
