Wrapped up weekend two of our 200 Hour YTT, a truly immersive experience designed to prepare the teacher from the outside in and inside out. 13 selfless participants, taking on the roots of yoga, integrating ancient wisdom into every day modern life, understanding the why, the how, and learning to serve. They opened their hearts, pouring love, compassion, and laughter, filling one another’s cup.

We do things differently at Yoga Shala, establishing a teacher student relationship, encouraging consistency in practice, and cultivating the heart of a student, always learning and always open to always learning. Through training, apprenticeship, mentorship, who we put in front of you is truly a guiding force in your journey.

Trainings are not compact and stressful, they are months long, nearly year long paths to becoming a teacher, allowing fuller embodiment of the practice, integration of knowledge to teach from wisdom, and each teacher, a pillar of sthira sukham.

While both our 200 RYT and 300 RYT trainings are full and in session…the 2027 cohorts begin now, showing up, developing a consistent practice, and preparing for the most profound experience of your life 🙌🏽

Allow our beloved teacher and educator, MJ, ERYT 500 and RPYT to guide you in your sacred journey through pregnancy 💗

When I first met MJ, we had back to back classes. I would be finishing up teaching Vinyasa and she would follow with Prenatal Yoga, where one by one by one, expecting ladies would wobble in 😁 needing to use the ladies room, needing to just sit down 😅, needing a snack, just needing relief! And MJ, ever so patient would lovingly greet and ease them into a most comfortable supportive posture 🫠 her guidance always gentle and reassuring as she teaches from her own personal experience and wisdom.

Several years later, MJ and I once again teaching side by side as she has become one of my lead teachers at Yoga Shala. She is my go to for most special and sometimes vulnerable cases, working one on one with members. Her comprehensive understanding of anatomy paired with yogic wisdom and warmth in connecting with her students makes for an empowering partnership in holistic wellness 🙌🏽

Come Spring, MJ will be leading an 85 Hour Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training and simultaneously will be offering a Prenatal Yoga class in which trainees will gain hands on experience, consider you and your baby fully supported!

This is a regular studio class and drop in, class passes, or memberships allow you to attend.

Starting March 8 Sundays 11:00AM-12:15PM

Overwhelmed? You’re not alone. With every day living, especially in the DMV, life is noisy, stressful, and even in our down time, can still feel overly stimulating.

We understand, we live it too.

The solution? Not to make drastic changes to our lives necessarily, but to change how we’re living, and find our Calm in the Chaos.

Join Steve RYT 200 and MBSR Facilitator in a 4 week workshop where you can expect to reset in order to cultivate a more mindful way of living, decompressing, and finding your center 😌

Beginning in March-Fridays 5-6:30 PM - Zoom is also available.

There are many words and ways to describe Yoga Shala 💗 if I had to choose one word, it would be INTENTIONAL. So much thought and care goes into what we do.

Upon acquiring the studio, teachers needed to be empowered, the experience elevated for our loyal members, and every cent reinvested to bring us to where we are today. A thriving sustainable space for all.

We have embraced constructive criticism, suggestions, heard your needs and implemented your ideas, in doing so, you our members, told your friends, your families, your co-workers, and just about anyone you encountered, how wonderful of a place Yoga Shala is.

And now…Yoga, we are open to sharing the word, through written publications like the one here from our dear friends at Stoll Willowsford~a tremendous support to Yoga Shala 🙏🏽 Read more about us and our mission 🙏🏽💕☺️

Thank you to our Yoga Shala team, our devoted members, and Stroll Magazine 🤗
