The Dance of Stillness
Get ready to sweat, breathe, move, and feel alive in your body and soul with this Vinyasa Yoga and Yoga Nidra workshop!
Join us for an afternoon of deep connection—physically, energetically, and spiritually.
We’ll begin with a dynamic, all-levels Vinyasa practice. Over two hours, you’ll sweat, breathe, and move through standing postures, backbends, and inversions—always adapted to meet your level. Expect a strong and playful flow, much like Jen’s beloved morning classes.
After a short break, we’ll shift into stillness with an hour of Yoga Nidra, often called yogic sleep or “extended Savasana.” This guided practice blends relaxation, meditation, and intention-setting to integrate body, mind, and spirit. Yoga Nidra can open doorways to profound experiences—emotional release, deep rest, clarity, or visions of color and light. The only requirement is to come with an open heart and no expectations.
