Wisdom of the Katha Upanishad ~
โKnow the Atman as Lord of a chariot; and the body as the chariot itself. Know that reason is the charioteer; and that the mind indeed are the reins.โ
This excerpt asks us to consider a profound question: Who or what is living our life?
The body is the vehicle.
The mind is an instrument.
Intellect discerns truth and guides the mind with wisdom.
When the reins are steady and the charioteer is clear, the journey steers toward Self-realization.

Ashtanga - Mysore, Wednesdays 6-7:30am.
Arrive and depart quietly at any time during class. This traditional Mysore-style offering provides a supportive space to cultivate a personal relationship with your practice through individualized instruction and guidance.
Whether you are stepping onto the mat for the first time or have been practicing for years, you will be met where you are. Students move through the Ashtanga sequence at their own pace while receiving personalized teaching, modifications, hands-on assists, and thoughtful refinements that support growth, stability, and ease.
More than simply learning postures, Mysore practice invites self-study, consistency, and the opportunity to connect more deeply with yourself. This class welcomes all levels and honors the understanding that yoga is a lifelong practiceโone that unfolds gradually, one breath and one step at a time.

Mid-Day Reset, begins June 11th.
12:10-12:50pm, 40 minutes of peace.
Step away from the desk and into the present moment. Designed specifically to fit into your lunch hour, this efficient 40-minute practice offers a mindful pause to break up the workday, move your body, and recalibrate your mind.
The practice is intentionally structured to undo the physical strain of sittingโfocusing on releasing tension in the neck, shoulders, and hips while restoring spinal alignment. We conclude with a brief, restful savasana, leaving you feeling spacious, focused, and re-energized for the rest of your afternoon.
All levels and abilities welcome. Modifications are always provided.
Class runs sharp from 12:10 pm to 12:50 pm to respect your afternoon schedule.

Learn To Float with .arseneau
Saturday June 6th
12:00-2:00pm
$50
Refine your practice and explore the art of lightness within strength in this focused workshop. An invitation to break down and embody the transition from downward dog to forward foldโmoving with control, precision, and lift.
Together, weโll demystify the โfloat forwardโ by working with the foundational elements that make it possible: breath, bandhas, core integration, and intelligent weight transfer. Rather than forcing the movement, youโll learn how to create the conditions where the body becomes naturally buoyantโallowing your feet to land softly between your hands.
You will be guided through progressive drills, technique, and variations so you can build both the strength and awareness needed to access this transition safely and sustainably.
โจTechnique Breakdown โ understand the mechanics of the float from downward dog to forward fold
โจCore & Bandha Activation โ build the internal support that creates lift and control
โจHip Mobility & Compression Work โ develop the range and lightness needed to move forward with ease
โจBreath Integration (Ujjayi & Timing) โ coordinate movement and breath for fluid transitions
โจProgressive Drills & Modifications โ meet yourself where you are and evolve step by step
Come ready (on an empty stomach) to explore, experiment, and surprise yourself with how light you can become.
โจRegistration is open at
