This workshop will  start out with a shirt discussion and instruction on essential oils and chakras. It will primarily be experiential.  We will use yoga, oils, breathwork and meditation techniques to cultivate a deeper connection to your energy body and intuitive self. Throughout class you will apply oils topically as well as through inhalation and ingestion. You will get the opportunity to play with crystal pendulums and gain a deeper understanding on how oils affect your energy body.

This class is purely for fun and learning. It is not designed to sell you oils. Essential oil-infused beverages will be provided. We will use oils from Veriditas by Pranarom oils which is organic and locally owned.

We are so happy to launch our second series of the monthly Body Love Gathering! In the past four months we have grown in to the space and lots is staying the same (first Saturday of the month!) and a few things are changing (smaller group maximum!) As always please join in for one or for all or for some! New and experienced yogis alike. The bundle package can be shared with a friend!

On June 2nd Body Love will focus on being Enough. In a society that continually tells us we need more, have to do more or be more, we will soak in all that we are and have and do. It is enough. You are enough. Everyone….and every body is welcome to join in, whether you are completely new to yoga or an experienced yogi.

4 Body Love bundle $120 (good through the end of the year) or Drop-in $35

Future Dates:
June 2nd

Whether you are are new to yoga or a long time yogi, spending time to take a fresh look at the core poses from class can be valuable to expanding how you practice on and off the mat. Spend the month of June with Sara breaking down the sun salutation and warrior series in the first two weeks. Then on June 21, a celebratory, symbolic 10-8 sun salutations for the Summer Solstice, and ending the series playing with binds and balancing.

We would love to say studies show that a beer after yoga is good for the soul, but we know it works for us! Yess Yoga will be hosting yoga at ClockWerks Brewing in Downtown Minneapolis each month. Elisabeth and Sara have sampled the beer and it is fabulous! We are really excited to partner with another locally-focused business. Each month there will be a one hour yoga class onsite with your choice of a pint ($20). Cheers!

Under this Lioness Moon, we gather together as women and explore the warm, spontaneous, joyful, creative, life-giving Leo energy in our bodies, minds and hearts. We explore embodiment through free-form movement to music, with intentionally chosen songs and facilitation by Jessa, intended to connect us with our innate Leonine strength, our child-like ability to spontaneously self-express and the pure lightness of heart that can come from simply being in our bodies, moving freely.

Leo Moon Medicine supports each of us in building courage through risking the vulnerability it takes to come forward in the presence of others with our true selves and our creative expressions. The other half of the equation is then to each receive the healing attention, affirmation and praise from others in response to our individual sharing. This loop of risking self-expression and receiving healing affirmation is what Leo medicine is all about.

So, after the movement, we will gather in circle, and each of us will have the opportunity to share from our hearts. After each woman shares, we will go around the circle and each woman in the group will then offer a word or sentence of warm, positive reflection back to the woman who shared. This is a powerful practice of showing up in our authenticity and receiving healing praise and warmth from others. Moon Medicine is led by Evolutionary Astrologer, Jessa Walters.

As we move into summer (warm weather, gardening, sports, road trips, outside activities) slowing down becomes essential. This day is summer’s height, midsummer, the longest day and the shortest night of the earth’s solar year. Here we celebrate the completion of the cycle that began at the winter solstice. Solstice means “standing of the sun” and we can connect to this great turning point in the earth’s yearly cycle by taking a moment to stop, be still, and look back at our own unique journey.

In Brianna’s workshop we’ll wake into the day with a soft, still, deep, and nurturing yin practice that focuses on the meridian lines associated with summer.  We’ll close out our practice with a 30 minute guided deep relaxation journey that include visualization to help us feel grounded as we forge our way into summer.

This training is not just for yoga teachers, it is for all people who want to get more out of life. Whether you are a nurse, a retiree, a parent, in corporate, or own your own business this training will get you to know your passions, creativity, and highest self. Not only will you learn specific techniques, practices and meditations to build your intuition and connect to your authenticity, but you will also learn how being your authentic self helps to guide others to do the same. When you are done with this training you will be able to be more intuitive about your work and life. Just watch the results! Lead by Lucia and Marnie
