"Opening" is the word of our times.  Let's spend a day together
exploring the beautiful possibilities of opening our bodies, hearts and lives.

Enjoy a nurturing, nourishing day with the support of community and the guidance of three visionary teachers opening to a bright new era. Together we will explore opening our bodies thru asana, our imaginations through Yoga Nidra, and our hearts through the yoga of writing.

We will learn skills for unfolding gradually and intentionally, in a way that feels safe and liberating.   We will experience many of the qualities of opening, including opening through support, allowing release, and engaging desire.  

Together we will:
  • learn different ways of opening  the body ​
  • find our own sphere of comfort with opening
  • feel the potential pleasures of opening  
  • identify what we want to let go of, what  we want to carry forward 
  • learn techniques for becoming comfortable in groups again​
  • discover individual hopes for the future ​
  • turn our sights toward a bright horizon

Leave feeling ease in your body. Lightness of heart. Inspiration for the future.
