Yoga classes move fast. Your body moves uniquely. This is your space to get curious, try things on, and ditch the pressure to do it ‘right.’

Join us as we reimagine alignment with a chill, eye-opening workshop where we dive into yoga postures from the ground up. Whether you're brand new to the mat or you've been flowing for years, this is your chance to tune into what feels right for your unique self, instead of chasing someone else's perfect shape.

Led by our awesome duo: Claire, a rad yoga teacher with a knack for making things personal, and Jenny, our go-to expert on yoga and mobility. They're both super curious about how bodies actually move, and they're all about helping yoga work for you, not against you.

We'll mix things up with:

Interactive chats and hands-on exploration, ask all the questions, try variations, and play with props that actually support your range, stability, and whatever your body needs that day.
Breaking down the basics: What's the difference between those old-school alignment cues and the *optimal* version that honors your structure, breath, and goals?
Real talk on mobility, strength, and nervous system, how they shape how poses feel, and why that matters.
Your toolkit for tweaks: Practical ways to modify shapes based on your anatomy, energy levels, and what you're feeling in the moment.

And to wrap it up? We'll flow through an integrated sequence where you get to test drive everything you've learned, turning theory into that "aha" embodied wisdom you can take into any class.

This isn't about fitting into a mold, it's a big exhale from the comparison game and a step into trusting your body's own smarts. Come slow down, get curious, and remember: yoga's magic isn't in the shape, it's in how it lands when you're fully *there*.

Spots are limited, so grab yours and let's make this happen together!

Meet your hosts

Claire L.

Claire discovered yoga at a very young age as her middle school offered a yoga class a couple times within a year. She always remembered feeling lighter and more peaceful through out the days she participated in class. After many years without a practice, she rediscovered yoga as a way to find movement in her body but discovered so much more. Claire primarily practices Vinyasa and Yin yoga and began to fully dedicate her self to her practice as a student. Claire challenges herself to try new and difficult things and fully immerses herself in a meditation practice which has helped her live more mindfully with presence.
After years of a consistent yoga practice at home and in a studio, Claire wanted to deepen her understanding of the philosophy of yoga and learn to share her passion with others. Claire graduated from a 200 hr Vinyasa teacher training in early 2024 and has made some major life changes to be able to share her love of yoga with others in hopes that her students are able to embrace each day with an open heart and an open mind. Claires approach to teaching is focused on the balance between strength and flexibility, as well as exertion and ease. She incorporates dynamic movements to help support each pose, connecting breath to movement.
