Flip Dog Yoga

Still a few more classes left! See them and sign up at flip.dog/schedule

Not sure I'll post again before classes end, so I wanted to thank you again for all your support. I am so grateful for these 4+ years even as I lament the circumstances and shortcomings that made closing the best option.

Remember that you can change, create, or improve whatever you set your eyes on: yourself, your world. You've got what you need.

All the best to you,
Nick

Hey friends, I've got some sad news. Flip Dog is closing at the end of the month.

I opened this place for people like you. I wanted to bring yoga to you in a way that would remove all barriers to you feeling like your realest (real word?) self.

We've made it through a pandemic and, personally, a whole lot of struggle. But now it's time for me to move on to other things.

Thank you for sharing this journey with me.

Our last day of studio classes will be September 30th.

Join us for a drop in before then! See the schedule at flip.dog/schedule.

Our sale for September classes is extended through tomorrow!

Look forward to Fall at Flip Dog Yoga!

Snap up some great yoga at a great price, and make your wonderful body happy.

"Your studio was so welcoming. Other places I have gone want to "adjust" (read: touch) me and I don't like or want that. And I felt really good after class." -recent student

If you tried to sign up for our free yoga at Briggs Park on Wednesday, you probably noticed that it wasn't free on the website. Oops 🤥

We fixed it. It's free now! Join us at 6:00 p.m. for our first park class of the season!

I wanted to tell you how grateful I am for you--you who supports Flip Dog, who comes to classes, who shares our posts on social. You who loves who we are. We cherish your support.

But this post doesn't end there. I am also encouraging you to tell yourself kind, loving words like this more often. Real talk (and somewhat embarrassingly), I emailed myself 'You are great' the other day. And it lifted me all day.

We are very familiar with the negative stream of self-talk we give ourselves every day, but sending ourselves some sunshine can make a real difference. What's one thing you like about yourself? Give yourself some love today ❤️

We made a thing!

Getting started doing yoga can be confusing. Yoga teachers/studios like to make it look more involved than it needs to be. Yoga has awesome benefits--a calmer mind, a happier body--and it shouldn't be so hard to sift through the non-sense.

So we created a guide, The 4 Things You Don't Need to Do Yoga, to help.

It's the kind of straightforward advice and encouragement that will get you ready to start a yoga practice, and begin accessing all the good stuff that comes with it.

You can get it here: https://mailchi.mp/flipdogyogastudio/4things

Hey, Nick here. I wanted to say a quick note about morning yoga in general. Yoga and meditation in the morning has been part of my routine for the last several months. While it hasn’t always meant that my days have been amazing, it has allowed me to approach situations calmly, observing and acknowledging what is and knowing I can always return to my breath to ground myself.

Recently, I have gotten away from this routine. What’s more, over the last few months, community events have led to a rather large increase in my personal anxiety. You could say that I’ve been struggling to make sense of the world. Without my morning practice, I haven’t been creating the space that I need to approach the world in a constructive way.

Today I spent a few moments moving and meditating, and immediately noticed a difference. I am better able to both sit with and sift through my feelings after this time.

Please create space to take care of yourself. The world moves whether we are being good to ourselves or not. Please make sure you are giving yourself grace, and doing things you love with people you care about.

We would love to have you join us for a pay-what-you-can morning class so you can start a new routine that brings you happiness and peace. If you are interested, see the schedule and sign up at flip.dog/schedule. If not, I encourage you to find another way to find some calm and quiet. If I can be helpful, please reach out. It’s not overly fun doing this alone.

Getting ready for summer yoga? Us too!

There's no wrong way to do it.

I often tell our students that there's no wrong option in a pose or no pose that's better than another, because:

It's so easy to be consumed with getting it right that we miss out on actually experiencing what's happening.

We are so programmed to avoid the guilt and shame of being wrong that we are more concerned with avoiding pain than taking care of ourselves.

Intentionally letting go of the need to be right in class can help you find peace.

Our knowledgeable instructors can help you relax in studio so you can be more at ease outside of it. 😎

Have a wonderful rest of your Tuesday!
