Move with Purpose
The yoga practice is not just a series of asanas linked together to break a sweat or find a little more space in your body to improve your golf game. Can a yoga practice accomplish these things? Yes. Is that its primary function? No. The word ‘yoga’ means “to yoke” or “to unite.” The purpose of the practice is to unite the mind and body. This involves becoming more self-aware. This may sound like an obvious concept, but many people do not maintain a quality connection with their bodies. These individuals are either totally unaware or struggle with understanding what their bodies are doing in space and why. The purpose of this class to learn how to use the yoga asana practice for self-reflection.
This Jedi Vinyasa Flow style yoga class emphasizes mindful movement. Instead of moving through these familiar poses on autopilot, students are encouraged to pay attention to not only the sensations in their bodies, but how their minds approach each pose, how their bodies enter each pose, and what their bodies do and how their minds react while experiencing the pose. This deliberate, slow style of movement and time under tension also helps to build strength and stamina.
Questions are not only permitted, they’re encouraged!
At the end of class, students will be offered a period of time to either sit quietly and reflect on their experiences with this practice or to journal about their experiences, followed by a brief class discussion. Students will not be forced to share if they don’t wish to.
A pen and small notebook will be provided for students interested in journaling. Please bring your own yoga mat and if you use yoga blocks or any other props in your practice, bring them with you. Plan on wearing layers or bring a blanket for your reflection period and class discussion time if you’re someone who tends to feel cold.
This workshop is designed for individuals who:
- Struggle with understanding what their bodies are doing in space
- No longer feel connected to the stereotypical, generic yoga class
- Are looking to build strength and stamina
- Struggle with focus
- Searching for a more thoughtful practice
- Interested in a more in-depth understanding of yoga poses and movement
- Interested in learning body control
Class Duration: 120 minutes

Combating Corporate Life
The average human spends approximately 8 hours a day at work. This does not include any commuting hours the average person may undertake to get to and from their job. Unfortunately, this puts a lot of strain on our mental and emotional health as well as our body’s physical needs. During the early days of mankind, we were hunters and gatherers. We searched for our food and crafted our shelter. In short, we lived a much more physical lifestyle than we do today. The car, the desk, and the mobile devices all put our bodies into a compromised posture. This tends to lead to tighter pectoral and hip flexor muscles, weakened back and core muscles, and neck and lower back discomfort or pain.
The focus of this Jedi Vinyasa Flow style yoga practice is posture and stress management. The first section of the class covers calming breathing techniques while the second portion of the class focuses on strengthening the posterior chain (back of the body) and core, while finding space in the anterior chain (front of the body). The final section of class covers tools that you can take with you to the office or during your commute to help counteract some of the negative effects you may be experiencing during your work day.
Please bring your own yoga mat and if you use yoga blocks or any other props in your practice, bring them with you.
This workshop is designed for individuals who:
- Spend a lot of time in front of a computer and/or mobile device
- Spend a lot of time in the car or commuting
- Spend a lot of time sitting
- Works with their hands in a forward-facing capacity (i.e.: nail technicians, hair stylists, mechanics, lab technicians, etc.)
Class Duration: 90 minutes
