House of Friends Yoga

Yoga has endured for over 5,000 years because the human need for presence hasn’t changed.

We’ve always needed a place to slow down.

To breathe.
To reconnect with ourselves.

Everything else is just the outfit.

✨The Dosha Series✨

Hi friends! Before Teacher Nyx gives birth, we’ll do one last series of Yoga Philosophy.

We’re all made up of different energies - some of us give off more air, fire, earth, water, space. In yoga, our energetic composition tends to be a combination of all these elements or what we call the Doshas.

For the next four weeks, we’re going to learn about the three doshas — VATA PITTA KAPHA. Not to be confused as different tYpes of personalities but as energetic patterns that we possess.

These patterns affect the way we move in our everyday life. Our practice helps us find SATTVA or balance when we need it most. Yoga philosophy gives us tools to understand how we work so we can show up for ourselves even off the mat.

So we hope to see you for the next four weeks, every Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm here at HOF QC. See you on the mat!

Week 1, Aug 11 & 13: Kapha (Water + Earth) - grounded, slow flow
Week 2, Aug 18 & 20: Pitta (Fire + Water) - long holds, strength-based
Week 3, Aug 25 & 27: Vatta (Space + Air) - lightweight, fast-paced
Week 4, Sept. 1 & 3: Sattva - balanced flow

Showing up isn’t what happens before the practice.

Sometimes, it is the practice.

If you’ve ever almost canceled but came anyway, we’re proud of you. 🤍

Somewhere along the way, wellness became another thing to optimize.

More habits.
More routines.
More things to keep up with.

Maybe wellness was never supposed to feel like another full-time job.

Sometimes, the most sustainable practice isn’t the one that asks you to do more.

It’s the one that welcomes you back, exactly as you are.

What’s one thing you’ve stopped trying to optimize lately? 💚

Maybe you didn’t quit because you lacked discipline.

Maybe you quit because wellness started feeling like another place where you had to perform.

We’re here to remind you that there’s another way.

A practice where you don’t have to keep up.
You don’t have to explain where you’ve been.
And coming back is always enough.

If you’ve ever stopped and started your wellness journey, you’re not alone.

What made you stop? 🤍
