✨ Welcome Heidi Kopacek to the studio ✨

We’re so glad to welcome Heidi Kopacek, PsyD to our teaching team - a licensed psychologist, certified breathwork facilitator, and longtime yoga teacher who believes healing can be both deep and joyful.

Heidi blends psychology, mindful movement, soulful breathing, and a gentle dose of humor to help quiet the busy mind and invite more ease into everyday life. Her classes are a space to breathe a little deeper, move a little freer, and remember you’re doing better than you think.

You can practice with Heidi in two beautiful ways this March:

🌙 Dark Night for the Soul
Fridays · 6:00–7:15pm · begins March 6
A slow, inward-moving journey of release and restoration - weaving purifying vinyasa, hypnotic breath, supported yin, and extended savasana. Grounding, spacious, and quietly transformative.

🌱 Workshop: Yoga for Depression
Sunday, March 15 · 2:00–4:00pm
An evidence-informed, experiential workshop for lifting low mood and restoring clarity, energy, and resilience. You’ll learn practical nervous-system tools, therapeutic movement, and breathwork you can use in daily life.
No experience needed - all bodies welcome.

Heidi is also the author of Soothe: Your Mind, Body, Spirit Guide for Dealing with Crappy Emotions (which tells you a lot about her approach 💛).

Join us in giving Heidi a warm welcome - and come experience her thoughtful, soul-centered teaching.

Many of you have been practicing here for years - through seasons of injury, grief, strength, and change.
Others are newer, yet already feel woven into the fabric of this space.

Classes can hold moments of playful movement, joy, laughter, and occasionally tears.
It’s an honor to witness your practice, and your lives, unfold, each of you fully yourself, with all your humanity and uniqueness.

Thank you for trusting this space and being part of this community. 🤍

Sometimes people are surprised when they cry in yoga.
They wonder if it’s normal.

It is.

When the body slows down and the breath deepens, the nervous system can begin to feel safe enough to soften. When that happens, emotions may surface naturally. Tears aren’t a sign that something is wrong - they’re often a sign of release.

Yoga doesn’t ask us to perform or hold it together.
It invites honesty, softness, and presence.
It invites us to meet what’s here, without judgment.

For many, the studio becomes a place where the body knows it’s okay to let go.
A place where it’s safe to feel, to breathe, to be human.

Whether tears come or not, all of you is welcome here -
a space to arrive fully, exactly as you are. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Our Story

Yoga & meditation: group & private classes; empowerment, coach, reiki master, continuing education for yoga teachers. E-RYT, CNT. Formerly a studio in Eden Prairie, opened in 2008 right when our economy completely changed. Our mission became more real - yoga helps us to breath, relax and smile. What a perfect time to open. Thus began the education of a yogi in business.

A small local business with a mission, dream and unshakeable integrity has a chance only if the community joins in to be a part of it. We all learned together that a community team was the way for a small business to continue to pay its bills and provide a service that was so valuable. We trained many yoga teachers in our small yoga school, some of whom moved on to open their own studios. We inspired a few to start teaching, or follow other dreams. Most of all we provided a community place where we could join up and mindfully connect and be strong, flexible and vital together.

We suffered some setbacks and hardships and in 2014, closed the doors to the retail front of Yoga Prairie. Karen Kinnard, the founder, moved on to help another struggling small community studio in Hopkins, MN. Formerly Yogatiques, purchased by Andrew Seifert in 2015, Karen offered to help and Andrew asked her to be a business partner. It was a match! Andrew has many years of business and yoga experience and Karen the complementary vision, yoga business and teaching experience to make a great team. We rebranded in 2017 to Good Vibrations Yoga - (Andrew traveled with the Beach Boys in his earlier years as a sound engineer!).

Once again we have built an amazing community yoga studio - this time it’s even better as Karen’s dream of bringing to one studio the very best teachers available in the area and visiting teachers to travel the world to teach. Our regular teachers have taught between 4 and 25 years - the experience and expertise is unmatched.
