Body Riot

A lot is new at bodyRIOT this September.

Alex found yoga after years as a live sound engineer, trained in Bali with his wife Erin — who's also teaching this fall. Jake's a former elite athlete turned Biomedical Engineer, now leading our brand-new Handstands class. Jennifer opens every class with a moment of stillness. And Cora, who you already know, is bringing something new: unheated Ashtanga 75 — the same structured sequence every time, built for real strength over weeks, not just a single sweaty hour...and Megan, a certified Inferno Hot Pilates instructor and NASM-certified personal trainer who believes getting stronger should never mean restriction — just ask her about her other passion, food.

Plus, meet JJ: 10+ years as a licensed massage therapist, now offering deep tissue and something new for us — manual lymphatic drainage. Thursdays and Saturdays.

A lot is on the schedule for the month. Come see for yourself.

Everyone was a beginner once.

If you've ever thought, "I'd love to try yoga, but I have no idea what I'm doing," this series was created for you.

Join Skye for a six-week Beginner Yoga Series designed to help you build confidence from the ground up. Together you'll learn foundational poses, breathwork, simple flows, and the skills to feel comfortable stepping into any all-levels class at RIOT.

No experience.
No pressure.
No expectations.

Just a supportive group of people learning together.

📅 Wednesdays | 5:30–6:30 PM
📍 September 16 – October 21
✨ Six-week Beginner Yoga Series

Because everyone deserves a place to start.

What actually happens in a Recovery class? This isn't the "skip day" class.

Non-heated, 70–75°F. You start moving before you start stretching — slow, flowing sequences that reset your nervous system so you're actually ready for what's next. Then long holds, prop-supported, held for minutes at a time — long enough for your body to stop guarding and actually let go.

Foam rollers and massage balls, used the right way: slow and targeted, finding the actual spot holding tension instead of rolling around hoping something releases.

Just finished a hard week? This is where your body catches up. Carrying tension you keep meaning to deal with? Start here. New to Studio 1? This is the slower way in — same depth, different pace.

Catch it Sundays at 4PM — the best way to decompress from the week and walk into the next one feeling renewed.
