People often ask what kind of yoga I teach.
And the truth is, it’s difficult to answer briefly.
Because the classes inside The Well are designed not simply as sequences of postures, but as immersive, embodied experiences.
Each week begins with a theme that is woven throughout the entire practice, through movement, sensation, imagery, nervous system awareness and Yoga Nidra.
Themes can vary wildly.
Sometimes the theme comes from philosophy.
Sometimes from nature.
Sometimes from a question about what it means to be human.
Sometimes it’s an organ.
The practice then becomes a way of moving those ideas and qualities out of the thinking mind and into lived, felt experience.
Not just understanding something intellectually, but sensing it directly in the body.
The forest itself becomes part of the practice too.
Rain on the roof.
Birdsong weaving into stillness.
Firelight flickering beside resting bodies.
Trees moving beyond the yurt walls.
Everything affects the nervous system.
Everything shapes the experience.
These classes are designed around presence, embodiment and connection.
Some people come to stretch.
Some come because something in them is longing to stop bracing and exhale.
This kind of practice tends to find the people who need it.
Some things cannot be understood fully through thinking alone.
They have to be felt in the body.
I guess that’s the type of yoga I teach.
