And perhaps a little reminder for all of us to take time to recharge. 🧘‍♂️

We live in a culture that often tells us more is better. More effort. More productivity. More doing.
But perhaps balance is found in the little things we practice regularly and with devotion.

This month’s conversations are all about returning to balance. Perhaps that means simply slowing down and taking a breath.

We changed our street marquee as a little reminder for our community. This poem by Dane Anthony felt like the perfect companion.

Right Here
Dane Anthony

Stop moving. Stand in
one place – this place. Breathe slowly; in, then out. Repeat.

Repeat again. Let your shoulders sink and relax. Unclench your jaw; slowly close your eyes.

Listen for your heartbeat; really listen. Feel it pulse in your fingertips.

Lessen expectations. Under-do all your efforts. Requisition the time for your soul

to catch up. Lean into the wind; feel it like a tree and test the ground.

Learn to trust the resilience. It would be treason to move quickly – left or right –

from this place. It is alright to be exactly what you are, who you are, where you are. Right here, right now.

WORD OF THE MONTH
Balance

Life is always changing. Our energy shifts. The seasons change. Our bodies and minds ask different things of us from one day to the next.

Ayurveda, yoga’s sister science, teaches us that like increases like, and opposites bring balance. Rather than trying to force balance, we learn to observe.

When life feels fast, we slow down. When we’ve become stagnant, we move. When we’re depleted, we nourish.

The Bhagavad Gita describes yoga as samatvam, or equanimity. An inner steadiness that isn’t dependent on our circumstances.

As you move through this month, we invite you to pause and reflect:

What is life asking of you right now? What qualities might restore a greater sense of balance in my life?

08/03/2026

As a new week begins, take a moment to check in with yourself.

What do you need right now?

Maybe you’re looking for a little more movement, strength, or energy.

Maybe your body is asking you to slow down, stretch, and rest.

Whatever this season of life looks like for you, we have a class to meet you where you are.

Help us celebrate Terri 🎉

We’re sending the happiest birthday wishes to beautiful Terri!

Each fall, Terri joins us from Michigan and shares the gift of slowing down. Through her restorative, yin, yoga nidra, and meditation classes, she reminds us to care for ourselves with patience and compassion. She has a special way of helping us find a little more peace, both on and off the mat.

We are so grateful to have you in our tribe. Wishing you a year filled with joy, health, and many blessings.

Happy Birthday ❤️🕉️🙏✨

Yoga invites us to stay curious and open. It encourages us to try new things and trust ourselves. It reminds us to trust the process and let go of the outcome. This month, we’ve been exploring the power of play, and we hope you’ll continue to make space for it in your life. Come play with us. 🤸‍♂️💃⛹🏼‍♀️🕺
