Five Peaks Yoga

We love to hear from you! Our teachers show up because they are passionate about sharing this practice with others, and it warms our hearts when they receive such positive feedback. Thank you for you kind words, Karen.

Yogis,
If you have a chance, read this inspiring article that shares about the impact BetterALife is making. When you bring in food, coats or any donations, you are helping kids just like Luke.
Thank you.
Your Teaching Team

BetterALife honors Loudoun teenager who lived in a tent during high school As the “inspiration of the year” honoree at the BetterALife gala in Leesburg on Oct. 21, Luke Braendel, 20, has come a long way since living alone in a tent

Thank you for how you've stepped up to help BetterALife, yogis. The way you've continued to show up and keep a steady stream of food coming in is the most inspiring yoga you could ever practice.

BetterALife is preparing for a coat drive. No child should be forced to be cold for any reason. If you are able to bring in a new kids coat (we've seen some great sales starting already. DM us for pointers on where to look), we'll be bringing coats to BetterALife when we bring food (so almost daily).

Again, thank you for stepping up and showing up. This practice of yoga in action is the truest form of our practice. 🙏❤️

One of the greatest gifts you can give to a small business is to leave them a positive review.

Thank you, Rob. You have captured our space so beautifully and perfectly. We are so glad you're part of our community. 🙏❤️

Hugs, High-fives and Happy News - *|https://mailchi.mp/fivepeakspoweryoga/hugs-high-fives-and-happy-news|*

The ancient practice of Yoga has persisted over thousands of years, not just through the revered tradition of oral exchange between teacher and student, but perhaps even more famously, through the magic of the written word in the Sacred Wisdom texts. These sacred stories that lie at the vibrant heart of the Yoga tradition offer immense wisdom, insight, and inspiration that’s just as relevant and needed in today’s modern world as it was thousands of years ago. 

Come… Treat yourself to a blissful, rejuvenating Yin and Restorative Yoga practice - crafted to release tension and restore balance in the body - all while nourishing your heart and mind with treasured tales from Yogic lore.

This 90 minute special practice will leave you feeling refreshed, inspired, and uplifted, having transformed your relationship to your Yoga practice, and to yourself.
