You asked…so we’re doing it!Last week, I shared an idea for a new class and asked what you thought. Well…enough of you said you’d like to “level up” your practice that we’re going to give it a go! The new Wednesday class will give us an opportunity to explore stronger flows, more complex postures, strength, balance, and subtle work. Sometimes we’ll move faster. Sometimes we’ll slow waaaay down. Sometimes we’ll take something seemingly simple and find a way to make it surprisingly challenging. Because of a few previously scheduled appointments and obligations, I won’t be able to add it to the schedule until Wednesday, September 30 from 10:30 to 11:30 am at Trilogy. But that gives you plenty of time to clear your schedule, too. 😉 Want to join me for our very first Level Up class? Let me know you’re coming by clicking the button below:

There’s still room to retreat with me!Our September Midweek Reset at Ottine Mineral Springs is almost full, with just two spots remaining! The last spots are in our Queen Bunk Room…which also happens to be where I’ll be staying. So if you’ve been waiting for your invitation to bunk with your yoga teacher, this is it. 😂 And looking ahead to winter, Wonder, Play & Rest in Santa Fe currently has just 3 spots remaining. Two very different retreats. Two opportunities to get away, play, rest, explore, and make a little space for yourself.

I’m thinking about adding something new to the schedule… Recently, one of you asked if I’d consider offering a more challenging weekly class. Right now, all of my classes are “all levels,” which I love because it allows the practice to meet whoever happens to walk through the door that day. But it can also mean that the pace and intensity vary quite a bit from week to week. So, I’m imagining a practice for students who want to turn things up a notch. Some weeks, that might mean a stronger or...
