GRATITUDE MEDITATION

Forest Hills 820 Forest Hill Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI, United States
Free to members, regular drop in pricing- you can use class packs! We're so excited to kick off monthly meditation! This is special class as it will coincide with our 21st day of Gratitude for our 21 Days of Gratitude + Meditation in November! (You do not need to participate in both to join in <3)  
We’ll start with 10-15 minutes of very gentle movement to help us get ready for meditation, then we’ll have a short teaching and discussion on Gratitude meditations, and we’ll end with at least a 20 min meditation. And reminder, you don’t need to have meditation practice to join! We’ll always give many options so you can find comfort and resourcing as you practice.  Can’t wait to welcome you into our cozy space for this special in-person meditation class. 

REST FEST

Eastown 1331 Lake Dr SE, Grand Rapids, MI, United States
3.5 hours of yoga bliss?? Yes, that’s the plan!

Deliberately sandwiched right between Thanksgiving and the New Year, the purpose of Rest Fest is to Regroup. Connect. Nourish. Pause. Rest. 

Part 1: Moon Salutations & Myofascial Releasing

1:30-3:30p

We’ll begin with about 30 minutes of gentle but warming Moon Salutations with Jen M, followed by a session of self-massaging techniques that will leave your muscles, and maybe even your soul, feeling much more ease and relaxation.

We’ll take a short break here to enjoy some nourishing treats, before we finish our Rest Fest with…

Part 2: Restorative Yoga & Sound Immersion 

3:30-5:00p

In this 90-minute practice, we will focus on rest & rejuvenation (through movement & breath), with the amazing and magical addition of a Sound Bath performed by Geoff Lamden. If you’ve never heard of a Sound Bath (you’re not alone), imagine the good kind of tingle you feel when music gives you goosebumps! Give your body a little TLC and soothe your senses through melodic sounds. Get ready for full-on yoga bliss.

This event is $59 for members, $69 for non-members; we can’t wait to rest with you.

WINTER SOLSTICE

Forest Hills 820 Forest Hill Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI, United States
Winter Solstice Restorative Flow + Yoga Nidra, The Yoga of Sleep

Yoga Nidra is sometimes described as the state of consciousness between waking and sleeping. Think of it like a combination of your favorite restful yoga pose and mental relaxation. We’ll have a brief discussion about the benefits and how to use the practice at home.

We’ll move very gently in a restorative flow, then we’ll finish with a nice, long, warm and supportive Nidra practice so you can float home on a cloud of relaxation. Join us and our amazing community to practice together.

This class has normal drop-in pricing! Members, it’s included in your membership! We’re excited to invite you into the cocoon of support the Winter Solstice can bring.

Dial Up, Dial Down, Dial In: Deepening Your Practice Workshop

Eastown 1331 Lake Dr SE, Grand Rapids, MI, United States

Immerse yourself in Flow State by learning to balance effort and ease in your yoga practice!

Have you ever had one of those yoga classes where suddenly you were in Savasana and you could swear you've only been in your 60-min class for 20 minutes?? This is Flow State! In Flow State, when we're just 'in the zone', we can lose sense of time (in the best way). It offers intrinsic value and enjoyment in the experience itself, and our mind and body come together so we're very present and grounded.
Taught by Larissa and Abs, this Funky Buddha workshop is all about learning skills you can build into any yoga practice, so you can find your Flow State: that balance of effort and ease that brings you peace of mind.
You'll learn how to:
  • Dial UP: Add more strengthening or challenging options for your yoga poses.
  • Dial DOWN: Add more support and ease.
  • Dial IN: Learn what your body needs, moment to moment, and build skills to make stride toward your personal goals.
We hope you join us in this deep dive on March 10th, from 1:30-4:00 at our Eastown Studio!
Spots can go quick, reserve your mat space!
This workshop is $49 for non-members, $39 for members!

Arm Balances Workshop

Forest Hills 820 Forest Hill Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI, United States
Taught by Larissa, this Funky Buddha Yoga workshop is all about adding strength, coordination and a nice challenge (of body and mind) to your practice using Arm Balances.

This workshop is great for all levels, as we'll work into Arm Balances with gradual steps.

In this workshop we will begin in supported postures like standing, propped near a wall, or on our backs. This way we can work on the mechanics and fundamentals that'll provide access to benefits like strength, coordination, and much more, before adding the element of balancing on your hands or forearms. Once we have some mechanics down, we'll play with gravity! You can practice lifting one toe at a time - no rush, just play.

If you are already comfortable with all your toes off the ground, you'll learn a few new arm balance variations, ways to support your wrists and hands, and find new core awareness and stability, to flip your base more often with ease!

We invite you to play with us on Friday, April 12th from 6-8:30pm at the Forest Hills studio, as we flip arm balances on their head (and back, and feet, and whatever other fun things we can think of!)

Spots fill quickly so reserve yours today! We can't wait to see you!
