Pause, Reflect, Reconnect: A Journey to Self-Love and Body Positivity with Jodi
"Self-love is the air beneath the wings of all our relationships." These wise words by Elin Waldal remind us that how we care for ourselves shapes every connection we make—with others, with the world, and most importantly, with ourselves.
Yet in the busyness of life, we often forget to ask: Am I living as an expression of love?
Join Jodi for a transformative journey into self-love and body positivity. Together, we’ll create space to slow down and turn inward, exploring the ways we’ve built walls around our hearts—whether through unkind inner dialogue, unhealthy dynamics, or the weight of past pain. Through gentle meditation and movement, we’ll soften those barriers and reconnect to the parts of ourselves that are ready to heal.
This workshop will guide you to honor your body as it is, embrace your emotions without judgment, and rediscover the infinite capacity for love that lives within you. As we flow through heart-opening yoga and surrender into deep relaxation, you’ll begin to rewrite the narrative of how you see yourself—one rooted in compassion, wholeness, and renewal.
Step into this sacred space and let the journey to self-love become your foundation for healing and growth.

Sound Healing with Austin Shook
Beyond a cellular level, our bodies are made of energetic vibrations. What better way to affect our vibrations than using vibrations - through sound healing. Join us for a sound healing experience with Austin Shook. This experience will begin with a gentle guided meditation or simple breathwork exercises, preparing you to transition into being bathed in sounds for the remainder of this 90 minute class. In the sound bath portion of this experience, Austin will be using an array of musical instruments from ancient cultures to create a space of deep peace. With these instruments, he will be holding space for each of you to connect with aspects of yourselves that often get foggy through our daily routines. You may experience deep relaxing states that can promote awareness of yourself beyond the body or emotions that can lead you the essence of your being, as well as a release from negative patterns.
Austin Shook is a natural healer in a variety of modalities. All of his practice is centered around the heart with the belief that once the heart is healed, the choice to give and receive love freely is made. After this balance is achieved in the heart space, everything else naturally balances itself. His modality of choice is sound therapy. With this technique, he uses an array of instruments from ancient cultures across the world to create a space that makes it effortless to slip into a peaceful state of mind and being. Austin is also certified as a Reiki Master and utilizes high vibrational energy (love) to balance out the rest of the energetic centers in the body and to release blockages that keep us from recognizing and merging with our highest potential self.

Sacred Sunday with Angela Phillips
A gentle breath practice supporting the movement of the entire self into stillness. We cultivate an attentive awareness of the breath, gently modifying the breath in sync with its natural rhythms. This unique approach allows our breath to open up naturally, freeing stagnant energy flow. As our practice deepens, we begin to experience a still point, a natural pause in the breath. Yogic scholars speak of this pause as an infinite space, an entranceway to meditation. In the pause a silence gently comes upon us. Settling into this silence, for even a little while, is immensely impactful. In this inner quiet, there is a vibrancy, a quality of consciousness that is transforming. As our meditation deepens, these moments of silence lengthen, enhancing an expanded awareness and inner vibrancy. Class size is LIMITED, please register early.

The Pelvis is Everything: A Different Perspective on Asana Practice
The pelvis is at the center of the body. It is also at the center of our movements, on and off the mat. Usually, however, asana is taught with more of a focus on the spinal column or peripheral joints and structures. But when we learn to move from the pelvis, everything changes.
In this course we will focus on the pelvis, its anatomy, and on its energetic importance to our lives through lecture and practice. We will study the part the pelvis plays in creating yoga poses, including standing poses, backbends, forward bends, twists and inversions. We will question with an open mind and heart some of the assumptions we make about the pelvis, and how we as teachers can open to a new way of seeing the pelvis and its potential in asana. We will explore the dance called “walking”, and the understanding that Eastern and Western cultures teach people to walk differently. We will also explore what physical and emotional consequences are associated with the way we walk. Included will be a discussion of the pelvic floor as well.
The first session of each day will focus on Active practice and the second session on Quiet practice like Restorative poses and pranayama. These practices take on new depth when done with an awareness of the importance of the pelvis and its position.
