Everyday People Yoga

Art and Yoga for Healing – Virtual Event Led by Jordan Lindstrom-Demant from 2:30-4p on Saturday, July 25th

*Please note this event is only available on Zoom. There is no event at the studio.*

This workshop is a deeply healing exploration of the self. Through creative self-expression and accessible yet powerful yogic practices, we will gently explore and move through emotions that may feel difficult or stuck. We will begin with a stream-of-consciousness art practice, allowing emotions to emerge freely without judgment. From there, we’ll transition into a healing yoga practice designed to cultivate greater awareness, release, clarity, and a renewed sense of perspective.

Jordan Lindstrom-Demant loves Yoga for its mental, emotional, physical healing power and powerful effective practices. In 2013 she undertook an immersive month of Kundalini teacher training in Espanola, New Mexico, and has currently completed 500 hours of Kundalini yoga training and been accepted into the Aquarian Teacher Academy. Jordan has participated in numerous other teacher trainings, studying Yin yoga, Meditation and Pranayama, Clarity Breathwork, Clearlight Healing, Sacred Art and Yoga therapy. Her mission is to use the practice of Yoga to bring more peace and joy to those in the community.

Danni has recently picked up a new job that conflicts with her 5:30pm Wednesday Essential Vinyasa class. She's held down that class for years. Thank you, Danni! ❤️🙏

She'll be staying on the sub list so there will still be opportunities to take classes from her. Yogeshwari will be taking over her Wednesday evening slot starting July 1.

Join Julynel Kerzner for her upcoming workshop: “What is Delight” A Dyad Meditation Experience. We're delighted to have her!

The workshop goes from 2-4p on Sunday, June 28th. The cost is $22-$44 sliding scale.

The intention of this experience is to create a space where delight and joy become the center of our attention. Together, participants will be invited inward to explore what delight truly means to them — how delight is felt within the body, when it comes alive, and what allows us to feel deeply connected to aliveness, beauty, and presence.

Dyad Meditation is a contemplative relational practice rooted in the Zen Buddhist tradition. Through the use of a koan — a contemplative question offered not to be solved intellectually, but experienced directly — participants are invited into a process of inquiry, presence, and honest expression.

For this experience, the koan “What is Delight?” will be explored in pairs. Participants will take turns listening deeply and communicating what naturally arises through contemplation. Dyad Meditation is often understood as a form of communicated meditation — a practice that invites us to speak from immediate experience rather than analysis or performance. It is an opportunity to slow down, listen inwardly, and express what emerges from the heart in the presence of another.

Following the dyad practice, participants will be guided into journaling, reflection, and group discussion as a way to integrate the experience together in community.

Julynel Kerzner is a Zen Buddhist practitioner who has devoted the past five years to the path of practice, presence, and deep inner listening. Rooted in the understanding that connection itself can be a spiritual practice, she has spent the last four years working closely with the Dyad Meditation structure, cultivating a profound reverence for heart-centered connection, the art of listening, nonviolent communication, and mindfulness.

Root into the earth, Rise with the Sun: A sacred pause to rest, re-align and shine. This month, we gather in reverence honoring the magnificent Sun. Led by prayer, reflection, Reiki, and sound medicine, we celebrate the Summer Solstice and her potent energies of abundance, growth, renewal, and radiant light. Together, we create space to soften, receive, and reconnect with ourselves, our community, and our inner wisdom.

Join Yogeshwari weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Her classes are awareness building, grounding, and deeply connective. Join weekly or simply drop in from time to time. Drop ins are $16.

Join us for workshops and yoga classes all week! Yoga practice helps you to relax and let go. The areas that feel tight can soften, and you start to open up. When a flower is open it feels expansive, light and full of life. It’s a good metaphor for what we do in yoga 🌺🌻🌷
