Today in class, I offered the option to use exercise balls to explore supported spinal extension. A student asked if she could just sit on one instead.

“Of course, you’re at home, help yourself ” I replied.

Ease Mountain is not like any other yoga studio, it’s a space to come home to yourself. You can get fit anywhere, if you’re seeking a place to learn to be at ease in your body, I got you - come on home.

A lot of people don’t know that Little Dog, aside from providing security at Ease Mounrain, is also a yoga teacher. Her cues for downward facing dog are the best. We teach yoga 4 times a week*, check the link in the bio to reserve a spot on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings at 9:30 & Wednesday evenings, too!

*by we, I mean me - she’s usually napping or yapping- if you’ve ever loved a chihuahua, you know.

Hi! I'm Juko, the founder and director of Ease Mountain Yoga & Nourishing Arts. When I walked into what would become the space for our first yoga shala, I looked around and said "This wants to be a yoga studio." It was not something I was expecting to do, but the call seemed really clear. In June of 2012, Ease Mountain Yoga & Wellness Co-Op was launched.

Just as the dream was materializing, my father entered hospice care, and my husband, Jerry, and I moved across the country to care for him for the last 8 months of his life. During that time Julie Carpenter offered one class a week to a group of students who had been practicing with her for years. Her dedication grounded the space while I was away, and were it not for her devotion to teaching, we would not have a yoga studio today.

In June of 2015, a group of teachers began offering classes 7 days a week. We offered over 900 yoga classes the first year we were open, and served hundreds of yoga students from Ben Lomond, Bonny Doon, Boulder Creek, and Felton.

In June of 2017, we moved into a space that doubled our capacity -right on Highway 9 in "downtown" Ben Lomond. Six months after we moved into the new space, the opportunity arose for us to expand, and we took it! In the winter of 2018, we are adding a second, smaller yoga practice space & opening our wellness room, which will feature acupuncture, massage, craniosacral therapy, Reiki, and holistic psychotherapy. ​ Since we opened with a full schedule in 2015, over 1,000 students have visited our studio. Our community is warm and welcoming, intimidation-free, and focused on creating a yoga space where people can feel at ease.
