DC Yoga Week

Word on the street is that in our nation's capital flowers are in bloom?
I've only been to Washington, DC a handful of times over the past year so if you're still in my old hometown this will be a rare moment to connect! I'm visiting this weekend and put a couple of classes on the schedule at Flow Yoga Center. If you're around come out and let's play!

*Friday night, May 13th treat yourself to an epic class from 8:30pm - 10:30pm called, "Midnight Flow."

*Sunday morning, May 15th drop into an extended practice from 10am - 1pm called, "Burning the Karmic Body."

YOU can sign up by following the link on the Event page or click here: https://bit.ly/3Fh2JOJ

If you need any kind of sliding scale/ discount to attend then send me a private DM and I will find a way to make sure anyone that wants to attend can come!

I’ve always talked about sustainability in practice and lately I’m really practicing it. I’ve never been one to push it too hard, but I’ve also never been one to consistently dial it back too far either, until recently.
.
Between injuries, teaching, and well, life, practice really is a practice right now. It’s hard for me to not get frustrated with myself as I struggle to do postures that used to be easy.
.
Instead, I meet my frustrations with compassion - or try to - and know that this too will pass. It all does.
.
Ultimately, sustainability comes from prioritizing sustainability. Make your practice work for your life. This is the work of sustainability, making sure your practice is something you can keep coming back to and that you want to keep coming back to.
