Description
Since Halloween coincides with our regular class time this year, we will honor the tradition through a special Halloween themed class!
All Hallow’s Eve has its roots in spiritual traditions. It touches upon an essential element of the human condition: the relationship between the living and the dead. Hallows’ Eve or Hallowe’en literally means “holy evening” — the night preceding Hallows’ Day, or All Saints’ Day, and has evolved from ancient rituals marking the transition from summer to winter, thereby associating it with transformation.
Our practice will follow the general Yin + Yang format, while honoring the tradition by paying reverence to loved ones who have passed through suggested prompts, holding them in our hearts as we move.
We will close our practice with a special guided Metta Meditation, directing the cultivated energy towards a loved one(s) who have entered their next realm of existence.
≻ Guided Metta Meditation to close out our practice.
≻ COSTUMES ENCOURAGED! But not necessary, of course (all are welcome).
≻ Optional: Bring a journal in case any messages comes through you'd like to capture, or if you'd like reflect on your experience.
METTA MEDITATION
- A Buddhist practice for cultivating universal compassion, safety and ease toward ourselves and others.
- Invokes a sense of ease and love within, as boundless as the oceans.
- Invites the practitioner into a more loving, connected state of mind.

YIN + YANG
A beautifully balanced practice combining Power Vinyasa + Deep Stretch!
We will start with an active practice to warm up the muscles, while subsiding our ever persistent mental chatter. We will then move into the passive portion, incorporating active-passive asanas (poses) to flush the energy through, while creating a deeper musculoskeletal release.
Rather than taking the more common, linear approach, this class is sequenced in a mandala fashion which involves facing every direction of the mat — honoring North, East, South and West (literally and energetically), as well as belly up, belly down, and right / left side down vinyasas. The intention is to "trap the mind" in order to stop identifying so much with the thinking mind, and to connect with a deeper part of ourselves.
Each sequence aims to target all major joint rotations, stimulating marma points (vital energy points) to activate the entire system and create greater harmony through the sustained flow of energy.
This is an beginner to intermediate level practice, but ALL are welcome, regardless of your level or experience! Several options will be offered along the way to accommodate the various levels of practitioners, including modifications and intensifications.
Happy practicing! 🙏🏼 🌹 🤍
