Classes will have an area of focus each week, but will move and breathe the entire body. Some yoga experience required. Flows may be modified or omitted to suit your needs, but we will spend time on the wrists and knees. The final rest pose will be an extended restorative practice to best prepare for sleep.

Join Erin this winter as she guides a slow yet strong flow practice to build connection between the body, mind and breath. This practice will start with a purposeful warm up followed by a short flow to build strength and promote stability using the breath as an anchor of support. The latter part of practice will invite you to land in a restorative pose where you will be fully supported by props such as bolsters, blankets, blocks and eye coverings to bring emphasis to the importance of rest and relaxation. While we are often surrounded by messaging around the "new year" being about change and moving towards goals that lead us to believe we have to start strong to thrive, this mentality can lead us to believe we need to be effortful with force when this season is actually about rest. Let us welcome in the opportunity of the season to move and rest in the same practice finding that balance between effort and ease.

This practice involves moving through various levels of planes, from the floor to kneeling to standing and may involve transitions up and down.

Investment: 7 sessions at $140 or pre-register for 5 or more at $20 each, otherwise drop in at $22 each

Dates: January 4, 11, 18, 25, February 1, 8 and 22

Winter solstice on Dec. 21 was the shortest day of the year. Since then, the days are slowly getting longer, with more sunlight each day. In this short series of classes, we’ll welcome back the sun by doing two simple sun salutations each class. Sun salutations, like the sun, represent masculine energy, therefore strength and endurance. They will help us build strength for 2026. We’ll then dive into the stillness of a guided yoga nidra to nurture our nervous systems, find deep relaxation, peace, and ease, and open ourselves to being present with all that there is. These two practices will help us build stability of mind and body to guide us in our daily lives throughout the year.

Join Erin Tuesday evenings this winter for Restorative and Yoga Nidra practices. Each Tuesday will provide an offering of Restorative or Restorative and Yoga Nidra.

Restorative Yoga is an invitation to find deep rest of the body and mind, often leading students to fully surrender and fall asleep. Bliss! Yoga Nidra is an invitation to allow the body to land in deep relaxation while the mind stays alert while being guided through a mediation, a "wakeful rest". It's not uncommon to also fall asleep in Yoga Nidra and that is okay too! All states of being are welcome!

All of these practices are low to the ground with minimal movement of the body. Being able to get onto the ground and back up is anticipated.

Investment: $96 for six sessions or pre-register for 4 or more at $16 each. Drop in $18. Cash and e-transfer accepted

Dates: January 6, 20, 27 and February 3, 17, 24

The Paramis in Buddhism are 10 qualities of the heart and mind that can be cultivated in practice and in daily life: generosity, wisdom, loving kindness, truthfulness, renunciation, morality, determination, effort, patience, and equanimity. We’ll explore these qualities together in monthly half-day sessions over eight months. There will be guided meditations, talks, discussion, walking meditations, and some time to meditate on your own. The Buddha taught that the opportunity to practice in this way can help us to see more deeply into the qualities of the heart and mind that can lead us to greater wisdom and compassion in our lives.
