It's not about being good at yoga...It's about being good to yourself.

"Put your mask on first" is the directive we receive when we board a plane and learn about what to do in case of an emergency.This message becomes a reminder that we can't be of service unless we first ensure we are taken care of. As we know, it's so much easier to be present for those we love when we have a surplus of energy. And, getting on our yoga mat is a great way to "put our mask on first" and reap the benefits of a surplus of energy.

We have a fabulous holiday schedule with a variety of classes that will leave you feeling renewed and ready for the holiday season!
