Fall Equinox ~ Yin, Yoga Nidra & Sound w/ Michele and Elisabeth
Friday, September 26th | 6-8 pm | $50 or $95/ two people
Fall Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere marks the descent into darker days. In Minnesota, it also marks the start of colder, darker days and nights. This year, the Equinox will also include several retrograde planets (Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto & Chiron). Planets in retrograde appear to be moving backward in the sky, as they are in a slowed movement. From a psychological perspective, this represents a time of reflection. A time to revisit a topic, to contemplate and allow it to settle. For all of these already slow-moving, communal planets, it points to a time for community reflection. During this workshop, let’s gather with our fellow human hearts, rest deeply through yoga nidra and the healing vibrations of sound bowls and gong, and meditate together, joining in community consciousness, to reflect on our existence, our humanity, and our ability to live in the highest vibration.
No previous experience needed. Please wear comfortable clothing that you can move in, bring a water bottle, journal/pen, and if you are prone to headaches, please bring a head covering (beanie, hat, bandana, etc).
Reiki and Restorative w/ Elisabeth and Lynn
Friday, October 3rd | 6:30-8 pm | $40 or $75/ two people
Join Elisabeth and Lynn for an evening of candlelight reiki and restorative yoga as we transition into fall. Elisabeth will be guiding you through a restorative yoga practice while Lynn offers individual, hands-on reiki. Reiki is a Japanese technique consisting of hands-on energy work used for stress reduction and relaxation. When combined with restorative yoga this can be a space of deep rest and healing.

Art Journal Making w/ Leah
Sunday, October 12th | 2-4 pm | $40 or $75/two people

Breathwork and Astrology for Harvest and Grounding w/ Amy and Lacey
Sunday, October 19th | 6-8 pm | $40 or $75/two people
Join us for a Fall Equinox Astrology + Breathwork workshop.
At the Fall Equinox, day and night once again balance – a reminder to slow down, harvest what’s been cultivated, and prepare for the inward turn of the darker months. Lacey Prpić Hedtke from The Future+ Silver Rising Astrology will guide us through the astrological themes of this season, offering insights into how we can work with the shifting energies in grounded, supportive ways.
From there, we’ll enter into breathwork guided by Amy Kuretsky, L.Ac from Constellation Acupuncture & Healing Arts – a spacious practice for release, clarity, and inner connection. This is an opportunity to let go of what you no longer need and to root more deeply into what sustains you. We’ll complete with space for integration and gentle community connection.
Because breathwork can bring up intense emotions and strong physical experiences, please understand that issues arising from participation in Breathwork may require additional therapeutic or supportive interventions. If you are in the first trimester of pregnancy, have a recent TBI or history with seizures, retinal detachment, or any other significant health issue you’d like Amy to be aware of, please make this information known to her prior to your participation. As always, please feel empowered to discuss breathwork with your physician if you are concerned about participating for any reason.
Bring a mat, wear something cozy, and join us to settle into this two-hour practice.

Human Design: part 1 w/ Kate
Saturday, November 1st | 2-4 pm | $40 or $75/ two people
Human Design is a powerful, archetypal system that blends ancient wisdom and modern science to reveal the unique energetic blueprint you were born with. Drawing from astrology, the I’Ching, the chakra system, quantum physics, and more, Human Design offers a pathway for bridging the gap between who you truly are on the inside and what you experience in your life on the outside.
In this experiential introduction, you’ll explore the foundational elements of your design—your Energy Type, Strategy, Authority, and Profile—and begin to understand your energetic rhythms, how you’re built to make decisions and relate to others, and your personal pathway for thriving. Rather than being another tool for self-improvement, Human Design invites you into a process of self-liberation: one that honors your inner truth, unwinds internalized conditioning, and supports both individual and collective thriving.
This is about resonance over performance. Embodiment over striving. You’ll leave with grounded insight and practical ways to start living your design, so you can move through the world with purpose, clarity, and self-trust.
Workshop will include teaching, discussion, and self-inquiry, alongside gentle meditation and somatic attunement.

As a note — Participants will need to know their birth date, time, and location to get the most out of this workshop. I usually ask for that information ahead of time so I can pull charts for everyone coming.
Yoga and Acupuncture w/ Tatum
Sunday, November 9th | 7-8:30 pm | $40 or $75/ two people
Yoga and acupuncture are a match made in the chillest of heavens. Whether you’re new to acupuncture, yoga or you love them both, this is an accessible and affordable way to combine these two healing modalities at once, each month at Yess Yoga.
This 90-minute trauma-informed yoga class will begin with a slow flow / yin yoga practice and conclude with an extended savasana needle nap. Together, the two complementary modalities will provide an opportunity for folks to relax and find balance. Tatum Fjerstad, a yoga teacher and licensed acupuncturist, will be leading the yoga and providing the acupuncture. All levels are welcome.
Masks are optional during yoga and required during the acupuncture portion.
This event will be split into three parts: time to discuss the current astrology, time to lay down and breathe together, and time after the breathing to share witness. No previous breathwork experience necessary. Wear comfy clothes, bring a yoga mat, an eye covering (mats and other props are also available onsite to borrow if needed!)
We are so excited to welcome you to a Yess Yoga special offering or training. We have a 48 hr cancellation policy. Please email [email protected] if you no longer can make it to the workshop you signed up for. If you are unable to attend class or email after 48 hours to the start of the workshop, a credit(s) will be deducted from your account.
Thank you
Yess Yoga
