A Map Within6 Weeks of Gentle Movement, Energy Awareness & Rest
What if yoga was less about getting into a pose and more about getting to know the body you're in?
Over the next six weeks, Yoga for Body Connection will explore the different ways we experience energy within the body—how we receive, move, hold, express, and rest.
We'll use gentle movement, breath, sound, and stillness to explore sensation, connection, and the relationship between effort and ease.
Each 60-minute class follows a familiar rhythm:
🌿 Arrive & Center — Time to settle, orient, and notice how you're arriving.
🌿 Intentional Movement & Breath — About six slow, mostly floor-based yoga shapes with supportive props, gentle stretches, and plenty of choice.
🌿 Energy Awareness — Simple explorations of breath, sound, sensation, and the patterns of movement within the body. Nothing you need to feel or get right.
🌿 Rest & Yoga Nidra — A generous period of supported rest and guided awareness, with space to simply be.
Our Next 6 Weeks
💧 The Long Exhale
Softness, fluid movement & receiving rest.
🔥 Finding My Center
Gentle strength, boundaries & trusting our choices.

Heart space, breath & connection.

💜 The Art of Noticing
Attention, curiosity & inner awareness.
✨ The Whole of Me
Integration, spaciousness & deep rest.
Come to one or come to all.
Each week offers a different experience, but the familiar structure stays the same. No catching up, no prior yoga experience, and nothing to accomplish.
This is a slow, trauma-informed, choice-centered practice. You can move, pause, change your mind, or rest at any time. Chairs, blankets, bolsters, and other supports are available.
You don't have to arrive calm, flexible, or feeling connected to your body.
We'll begin wherever you are.
