Most people think nothing about breathing - and yet even a little understanding of breath can change everything.

As an autonomic process, breath is with us from the moment we arrive on the earth to the moment we leave. Its rhythms attune to our mood, measure our experience and modify to meet the moment - consciously or unconsciously. The energetic science of yoga views breath as the primary doorway to spiritual awakening, physical longevity and communal harmony.

Want to learn more? Come breathe with us: classes daily. Entry and advanced yoga training begin in January - link in bio.

Noticing your breath is the first step - you are Courageous and we ❤️‍🔥 you.

The only future that can exist is matriarchal - a continuation of the lineages of femmes, women and Q***r people who have been forces of liberation and fierce love despite despite despite.

As a tradition of freedom, yoga has been carried, tended, innovated and shared by femmes since its inception. Through stories, through mantras, rituals, poetry and through song - at times in regional languages, at times in the liturgical language of Sanskrit. Always in the way things are done.

History will habitually point to the men, but these are just four of the countless femmes who understood that the key difference between matriarchy and patriarchy is embodied. Matriarchy always has the collective’s wellbeing, the nature of balance and justice at its center - and this is the very essence of Courage. Something anyone can learn.

At the Courageous School of Yoga, we center a practice rooted in matriation. Our medium is connection and there is no shortage of inspiration to stay focused, stay resistant, stay Courageous. But don’t take our word for it - come find out:

When Prentis Hemphill said “there are some things that are too big to feel in one body” we heard them. The Courageous School of Yoga rests on a foundation of relationship…and actually - this isn’t new.

Prentis is pointing to a part of our humanity that has the potential to change everything - connection. The practice of yoga as balance, clarifying ethics, and collective liberation has historically been taught within the context of relationship. And although we learn this science of self-awareness with the help of words, its deepest transmissions happen in silence, vibration and community - from one nervous system to another.

If you are ready for relationships that are oriented at liberation - including the relationship with your own heart - the Courageous School is for you.

The liberation we seek is hidden in the work we do to get there.

There is no neutral yogic stance on this one - yoga is a tradition of resisting oppression, cultivating compassion and deconstructing what harms and veils our humanity. And as Macklemore said, “humanity is a privilege. We can’t give in. When they build walls, we’ll build bridges.”

May Palestine be free in our lifetimes. May the colonial powers be dismantled and wealth redefined. May the earth go back to hands of mothers. There is enough for all of us - may we each have the courage to do the good in front of us.

Keep practicing Courage.

Kites are a conduit of joy - a symbol of the creativity and liberty of the human heart. The kind of joy Haza teaches humanity is not just the contents of the beautiful world being born - it’s a vital part of the pathway there.

Join us in love, solidarity and Courage:

🔥 Yoga For Collective Liberation
Sunday, Sept 13th
9:30-11a

Proceeds will be shared with on the ground, direct nutrition relief efforts in SWANA. We’ll be building small kites after a newbie-friendly practice intended to gently build heat, community connection & honesty.

🖤 at the heart, the teachings of yoga are intended to help us witness and intervene in suffering, and have a way of bringing us face to face with the truths of interconnection. Practices of breath, movement and meditation are like a comb for our body mind - they help us see where we are adding suffering to pain. When we apply the compassion & strength we learn on the mat to relationships, we see how much our practices have the potential to change outcomes.

That’s why we’re invested in yoga as it was originally taught: as harm mitigation, honesty, generosity, wise use of creative power, and right relationship with impermanence. Being a practitioner of yoga in this historical moment means being firm & clear as to where we stand on abuses of power, greed & the inequitable organization of pain in our world.

The good news? Our actions make a difference. In fact, they can’t not: all the more reason to come practice Courage.

🪷 Courageous Space is a diverse community in the heart of Denver’s iconic Capitol Hill neighborhood. We offer yoga and dance movement and meditation from the understanding that liberation can only be collective.

Our 2026 Entry & Advanced Yoga Teacher Training baddies are c r u s h i n g it and we could not be more proud of their Courage ❤️‍🔥

Functional anatomy, 10,000 yrs of yoga history, philosophy, teaching techniques - they’re eating all of it and even though we’re only halfway thru the semester, it’s clear these crews are filled with changemakers.

The Courageous School focuses on the yoga of collective liberation and all that means in our current culture. This isn’t yoga that stays on the mat or lives in theory - our trainees utilize their movement, meditation and breath training in the grit and fodder of contemporary life. Applied ethics, embodied mindfulness, love in action - in short, the Courage to decide how we actually want to show up in our rapidly changing world.

Some of our grads go on to teach, and some with us to learn about yoga as a way of life. Both are welcome in our unique and growing community.

The 200-Hour Sacred Activism Yoga Teacher Training is for you if you have a desire to contribute to collective healing and a sincere devotion to yoga practice. Whether you are looking to explore your capabilities, expand your relationship to yoga, or establish a teaching practice that will deepen your impact in this pivotal historical moment - you’re invited. This journey will immerse you in philosophy, movement, energy, play, social justice & community, & furnish you with the tools you need to become an example of the more beautiful world we know is possible.
