Postures are held for several minutes to target the deeper connective tissues, cultivating patience, awareness, and quiet introspection. This is not about effort or striving, but about listening, noticing, and honoring your inner landscape.
Whether you're here to release physical tightness, calm your nervous system, or simply take a pause, this class offers a grounded and supportive environment for personal exploration and rest.
All levels are welcome. Come as you are — no experience necessary.
Preparing for class:
*Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for parking, checking in, and setting up your mat. Classes take place in the Alma room located in the front courtyard of Casa de Luz.
*While we do have a limited number of mats available, we may not have enough for every student in larger classes. To ensure everyone is covered, we kindly ask that you bring your own mat if you have one. This way, those who truly need to borrow one can do so. With your help, we can continue to support one another and make our shared space comfortable and accessible for all.
We also invite you to bring any personal items (blanket, eye mask, pillow, etc.) that will help you to feel extra comfortable during class.
*Some of our classes may include optional physical touch, such as gentle adjustments or supportive contact, to help guide you in your practice. Your instructor will always announce this at the beginning of class.
If you prefer not to receive any physical touch, please feel free to let the instructor know before class begins. We fully support your choice and want to ensure that you feel safe, respected, and comfortable at all times.

Yoga helps with weight loss and weight management like a superhero sidekick, always there to lend a helping hand. It can help you burn calories, reduce stress eating, and increase mindfulness around food choices. Plus, it's a lot more fun than running on a treadmill.
Yoga can help with emotional healing like a gentle massage for your heart. It can help you process and release emotions, improve self-awareness, and increase feelings of happiness and well-being. Plus, it's a lot more fun than sitting in a therapist's office all day.
Yoga helps with memory like a mental filing cabinet, helping you store and retrieve information more effectively. It can help improve focus, concentration, and overall brain function. Plus, it's a lot more fun than trying to remember where you put your keys.
Yoga is like a circus performer, juggling multiple tasks at once. It improves your balance by strengthening your core and leg muscles, and it enhances your coordination by teaching you to move your body in sync with your breath. Just don't expect to run away and join the circus after a few classes.
