Love Yourself First
Saturday May 30, 2026 1:15pm - 2:45pm MDT
You can't keep pouring from an empty cup. It's not sustainable and can leave so many of us feeling stressed, burnt out, and physically sick. We must take care of our own well being if we really want to show up as the best version of ourselves. 


In this Yoga, Meditation & Personal Development workshop, we will turn up the music to enjoy an all-levels "Love Yourself" yoga practice, and you will be led through a guided meditation to expand your sense of self-love and spiritual connection, and be coached through powerful personal development exercises to deepen your focus, be more present, increase your self-confidence, connect to your emotions and your emotional body.
You will leave this once in a lifetime experience feeling grounded, nourished, and ready to pour from a full cup!

Unwind the Upper Body: Yoga + Fascia Flow for Neck, Jaw & Shoulders
Saturday May 30, 2026 3:15pm - 4:45pm MDT
Tension in the jaw, neck, and shoulders doesn’t just affect how you feel—it shapes how you move, breathe, and show up in the world. This unique class blends slow, intentional yoga postures with targeted fascia release techniques to unwind deeply held patterns in the upper body—without the use of props. 

Explore subtle positioning, gentle traction, and sustained holds designed to release tension in often-overlooked areas like the jaw, tongue, throat, and base of the skull. Rooted in myofascial release and nervous system regulation, this practice invites a deep “unwinding” effect that can help relieve headaches, jaw clenching, tech-neck, and shoulder tightness.
