🧘 New to yoga? Returning after a break? Ready to revisit the basics? Our Yoga Fundamentals series was created for you. ✨

Starting on Wednesday, November 4th, our next 4-week series, themed around Grounding & Gratitude, invites you to slow down, build confidence, and reconnect with your practice during the busy fall season.

Through clear instruction, mindful movement, and breath awareness, we’ll explore a new focus each week—from grounding and stability to opening the heart and shoulders, creating space in the hips, and cultivating gratitude.

✨ Join us for all four weeks for just $60 (best value!), or drop in through our weekly schedule.

No matter where you are in your yoga journey, this is a space to learn, grow, and find a little more steadiness on and off the mat.

Pratyahara = “withdrawal of the senses” or “turning inward.” 🧘

The fifth limb of yoga, as described in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, invites us to pause, soften our focus on the outside world, and reconnect with what’s within.

But how do we turn inward when the world around us doesn’t pause? We start softly. One breath, one moment, one sense at a time. And we remember that yoga is a practice, not a destination.

In this blog post (part of our series on the eight limbs of yoga), YOE teacher Shauna explores the meaning of Pratyahara and shares simple ways to bring this practice into your everyday life, on and off the mat.

Lots of new followers here and new faces in the studio, so we wanted to take a moment to reintroduce ourselves! Here are a few things you might not know about us:

✨ Yoga Off East is a woman-owned business. Co-owners Kathryn & Kim (pictured here, just before our studio opened at American To***co Campus) are longtime Durham residents.

✨ We're locally owned and independently operated. No corporate chain yoga here, just an ongoing commitment to Durham and our local community.

✨ Our studio opened in Durham more than 10 years ago, and we've been building a yoga community here ever since. We started on Ninth Street and then relocated to our beautiful, light-filled studio at American To***co Campus.

✨ We're primarily a Vinyasa Flow studio, with speciality classes mixed in, including classes that focus on strength and restorative yoga.

✨ It's important to us to offer more than a workout. Here, you're exploring some of the deeper teachings of yoga, not just moving through the poses.

✨ We have a team of some of the most incredible teachers in Durham, including several who have been with us since the studio opened 10 years ago!

If you wanted just a workout, you could hop on the treadmill or pick up a set of weights.

But most of us are looking for something more from our movement: Clarity. A deeper connection to ourselves. A way to build strength, mobility, and resilience while also practicing without judgement. We are looking for movement that will support us through our next decade.

This is what we love about yoga at Yoga Off East: moving your body with purpose, precision, and intention, while creating more space to breathe, notice, and be present.

Whether yoga is your primary form of movement or something you weave alongside running, strength training, climbing, tennis and whatever else keeps you moving, there’s something here for you. 💪 😌

Come on in and book a class. Leave feeling a little stronger, more grounded, and balanced. 🫶

A little vision, a lot of heart, and plenty of curiosity … that’s our current cohort of thirteen Yoga Teacher Trainees in a nutshell! 🫶 Here they are in last month’s training module making vision boards and participating in partner yoga. 💙 Their next training module begins this weekend, and we can’t wait to have them in the studio! Give them a big welcome if you see them in Penelope’s class on Saturday at noon! 🧘🏻‍♀️
