​this is for you if you ::-
☘️ can’t seem to find a routine rhythm for your yoga / mindfulness practice
🐛 are curious about attuning your spirituality to moon cycles
🐢 find yourself craving intentional slow living
🌲 want to physically experience your trust in Earth’s timing

this is a hybrid online and in-person event—you'll be asked your choice when getting your ticket

​-:: why am i offering this? ::-

​we're in the middle of Earth month as well as LA Climate Week. people in or around the climate community likely feel quite hectic.

​springtime is also when things start to blossom and there can be some timidity, resistance, fear, and other lingering, unprocessed tensions from the closed-in wintertime.

​this is a opportunity for you to co-regulate in community, come try it out!

​-:: faq ::-

​💐 can i still come if i just want to sit and enjoy the meditative space? — yes!

​💐 do i need a yoga mat? — yes, please bring it if you have one. if you don’t, message me somehow! i have 3 extras

​💐 what if i can’t meditate and haven’t enjoyed yoga classes much before? — you may actually need this more than most, but please listen to your body. you may identify with traits of queerness and/or neurodivergence. if so, i teach for folks like you. still, not every teacher is for everyone.

​💐 what if i’m not flexible? — setting side my frustration at capitalist & patriarchal yoga’s propaganda here, body exercises are just a small slice of the entirety of yoga. each and everybody has the ability to receive it’s benefits, which is why i teach in an accessible way, offering multiple options as we go along
