"I am becoming better at releasing the 'what-ifs' that clog my closets"-Lisa J. Shultz

This week we are looking at what we hesitate to change in our practice simply because it feels familiar. In the body, this looks like an inquiry into the postural patterns that hold us back from progress. Beyond the body, we endeavor to declutter our personal narrative about how things should be compared to how things actually are. When we contemplate the clutter in our practice and lives, we recognize that freedom lies in spaciousness, not in accumulation.

This week's theme: Declutter.

We declutter our homes, our closets, our schedules, but rarely our movement or our minds. On the mat, decluttering looks like removing the unnecessary aspects of the practice, such as gripping, rushing, or habits that are unseen. When movement is cleaner, the mind follows.

This week in class, we’re practicing intentional simplicity. We will refine shapes and breath, which will reshape the inner landscape. Join us at Naples Yoga & Movement Center as we clear space this week.

Tuesday:
- Ashtanga Elements 7 am with Amy
- Vinyasa 9 am with Amy
- Strength, Mobility and Yin 10:15 am with Cesar

This weekend, step out of the pace that’s been carrying you, and give yourself time to remember who you are when you are not rushing, producing, or responding. This space can be its own edge, as you begin to feel what’s underneath the momentum. Come meet yourself without distraction, our weekend classes welcome you.

When we come to an edge in our practice, where challenge meets curiosity, we start to listen for feedback from our nervous system. At Naples Yoga & Movement Center, we infuse classes with guidance towards this kind of awareness. The edge is the shift from automatic patterning into presence. This is a valuable skill to carry from your mat out into the world.

“The edge is where we meet ourselves.” — Jack Kornfield

We hear a lot about coming to an edge in a yoga practice, but the edge is often misinterpreted as efforting as much as possible. In reality, the edge that we are looking for in our practice is where our capacity meets our curiosity. The edge is a space of breathable intensity and sustainable effort. We will be exploring the edge all week. Join us!

"The goal of asana practice is to live in your body and to learn to perceive clearly through it." - Donna Farhi

The weekend is an opportunity to return to our embodiment and consider big questions, such as where am I gripping or isolating myself, and where can I invite softness to reconnect with the whole? Your mat is a space of self-discovery.

Saturday:
Vinyasa with Cesar 9 am

Sunday:
Vinyasa with Cesar 9 am

If you haven't tried Strength, Mobility and Yin with Cesar, off-season is the perfect time! You can expect expert cueing and mindful movement. There is so much freedom in understanding the way your body moves and learning the most healthy way to build strength. In this class, you will work intelligently before finishing with the softness of yin yoga.

"Every day is a gift. But some days are packaged better." -Sanhita Baruah

The whole pace of the world slows down on weekends. Let that be your cue to do the same. Join us to be in your body and feel the flow your breath. Step onto your mat and give yourself the kind of presence you rarely have time for during the week.

Sunday:

The moment before a pose is its own practice. We organize in ways even beyond our awareness, and have the opportunity to choose clarity over momentum. We organize by listening: to the ground, to the breath, to the subtle direction of the body. This is how a posture becomes shaped by steadiness rather than habit.
