Wildlight Yoga

Starts tomorrow, Sound + Reiki will be offered as a weekly class on Sundays from 12p - 1p ✨

This will be a receptive practice designed to support nervous system regulation, deep rest, and energetic balance. It will weave together meditation, sound healing, and energy work to create a space where you can cease performing and experience being held; a time to listen rather than strive.

Both sound healing and Reiki have been speaking deeply to our community, and so many of our members have shared profound benefits from receiving both. More and more people have asked for opportunities to slow down, soften, rest, receive, and reconnect with themselves in gentler ways. This transition allows us to meet that call while maintaining the same presence, care, and spirit that have always resided at the heart of Jana’s classes.

See you there? ✨

The Summer Solstice is just around the corner... if you can even believe it 🤯

Cuties gathered in the studio's lounge before class to draw oracle cards ✨

If you find yourself in the space early, or would just like to linger after your class or service, we love to see folks utilizing our lounge area to connect, introspect, and take life slowly. Underneath the table in the lounge we have 14 tarot and oracle decks (and a magic 8 ball 😉) to explore!

Some of these decks are also available in our shop, so it can be a nice way to try before you buy. But many of our students use this as an opportunity to set an intention for the practice they're about to embark on ✨

Hatha is an energetically balanced practice with focus on alignment, muscle engagement, and deep stretch. Hatha yoga breaks down foundational postures in great detail, slowly enough to notice what you feel in your body in each shape, while maintaining a sense of flow and rhythm.

Hatha is also a great practice to explore different variations of each posture to find what feels best in your body, as well as how to incorporate props for further support.

Great for: experienced yogis who enjoy a slow + mindful yet strong practice, as well as newer yogis who are looking to expand + refine their practice.

You can take Hatha with Kelli every Wednesday at 5:15 pm, and every Friday with Lauren at 9 am!

Mark your calendars + join our FOURTH annual Photo Shoot Class on Saturday, June 6th! ✨

As you all know, we like the photography for our site, socials, and marketing to be a reflection of our beautiful community! We're hosting another photo shoot class this month and hope you'll join us + represent Wildlight. All skill levels, ages, body types, etc. - this isn't about looking like an ad, but representing what our community is truly like! A handful of our instructors will tag-team-teach throughout the hour - all you have to do is show up and practice!

Our very own Lauren (who you may know as an instructor!) will be the photographer, so there's a familiar face behind the camera, promising not to get too up in your business! You'll barely even notice I'm there 😉

Sign up on the class schedule + I hope to see you there! 💫
Saturday, June 6th from 12:30-1:30pm

It's a holiday weekend! Tomorrow, Memorial Day, we'll have one class at 9 am and then be closed to the public for the rest of the day. If you're looking to get your practice in, join Julia in studio or on Zoom for a vinyasa practice! ✨
