I've spent a lot of time reflecting right here in this spot these last couple months thinking of my next moves. I'm excited to say xenthayyoga.com is live! Movement & Healing starts Tuesday, September 10th. I'm thrilled to get back on my mat with you all. ๐Ÿ•‰๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’“

Hey y'all! I'm looking at getting some classes on the calendar! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ

My website is still under construction, but I wanted to share some class news.

Movement & Healing is going back online on Tuesdays & Thursdays beginning September 10th!

My yamas & niyamas class will also be online this fall so look for that, too. If you attended the in-person class in the spring, this is a great refresher to close out the year!

I miss practicing with you all and look forward to seeing you soon! ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’—

Here's a little throwback to one of my favorite memories with my youngest. He asked if he could meditate with me ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ, at 4 years old y'all! It also makes me giggle that he's dressed like a child from the 70s. โ˜ฎ๏ธโค๏ธ

Let me also tell you about why I'm shifting my focus away from traditional group classes. After 11 years of teaching yoga, trying to help people feel better in their bodies, I started not feeling so good in my own. I could alleviate aches and pains, but something felt off. If you know my story, those little whispers that turned into screams is what got me into yoga in the first place.

In April, I completed a 6 day intensive
with Yoga Therapist Susi Hately, and not to sound cliche, but it changed my whole perspective on movement. My body changed in those 6 days too! I can finally get back to deep relaxation! I'm still working with Susi, and adding to my toolbox. But now, I'm also ready to share with others this phenomenal method. If my story resonates with you, consider joining me next Saturday for Movement Workshop: Discover Your Path to Healing. ๐Ÿ•‰๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโค๏ธ

This Thursday is the second to last session of Yoga night at WVO Events!

We are switching it up a bit and will be doing yin yoga. This will be a slow paced sequence with longer holds (3-5 minutes). This is not a restorative class, so this can be pretty challenging. The beauty is that the challenge is all up to the individual.

Drop ins are still welcome, $15 person. I have blocks, straps, and a couple extra mats.

Hope to see you Thursday night at 6pm! ๐Ÿ•‰โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

Hey y'all โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

Better late than never, as usual...๐Ÿ˜… Some of you expressed interest in the book title from the yama & niyama class. It's by Deborah Adele, and it's titiled, The Yamas & Niyamas: exploring yogas ethical practice. I refer back to this book regularly, just to check in with how I'm aligning.

Also, I'm working on one more class at Walnut Valley Events. I'm looking at April 11th as the start date. Check back for details soon!

Interested in getting a little yoga in before the big game?

I got you. Join me at 3pm for yoga at DanceCamp Studio. ๐Ÿ•‰โค๏ธ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

Why yoga?

I canโ€™t tell you exactly how long Iโ€™ve been doing yoga, but I do know the practice has allowed me to live a more content and balanced life. Initially I was looking for a fix to the aches and pains in my body, but gradually I began to see yoga as an integral part of my wellness.

This is the what I aim to teach. I want people to be more connected to their bodies and use that knowledge to process thoughts and emotions. Yoga can be used to help you navigate this crazy world and maintain some level of peace.

I hope to see you on your mat.

Namaste,
