Restore

This calming class invites you to slow down and soften. Passive postures are held for 3–6 minutes, supported by an abundance of props—bolsters, blocks, cushions, and blankets—to help your body fully release. Blending the deep tissue opening of Yin with the nurturing stillness of Restorative yoga, this class offers both release and renewal. Breathwork and meditation are woven throughout, inviting you to reconnect, rest deeply, and return home to yourself.
