Zia Yoga & Wellness

Zia Yoga & Wellness Enter a Place of Belonging. We guide our students to reclaim their health and happiness through ancient wisdom and self-care.

Zia Yoga & Wellness is a vibrant community committed to increasing Yoga's accessibility, honoring its roots as a spiritual practice for collective healing, and inspiring a movement toward equitable wellness for everyone. Yoga can help you dismantle stress and gain access to the experience of radical self-love in your body but it can also be intimidating, expensive, lack accessibility and representation, and feel available to only some. Zia Yoga & Wellness is an intentional and inclusive space, created for anyone who has felt othered elsewhere to feel affirmed and welcome. Through our work, we empower our students to help us in making waves in the wellness industry by challenging norms, disrupting systems, and mobilizing people to be in action to create transformative social change.

Native American spirituality, both traditionally and today, emphasizes gratitude for creation, care for the environment, and recognition of the human need for communion with nature and others.

As we pause today in deep gratitude, we also remember that this holiday isn't celebrated by all. Indigenous Peoples in America recognize Thanksgiving as a day of mourning. It is a time to remember ancestral history as well as a day to acknowledge and protest the racism and oppression that they continue to experience today.

If you do celebrate, here are a few ways you can acknowledge the history and honor Native American communities at Thanksgiving...

* Learn about the land you are on
* Support native farmers
* Cook a Native American recipe for your holiday meal (we love recipes from )
* Celebrate Native American designers and artists (check out , , & Emme Studio )
* Support

One of the things we hear most from students is, “I finally remembered who I am.” Not in a dramatic way, in a deeply embodied, quiet, revolutionary way.

The Changemakers Program isn’t about rearranging your life… It’s about returning to your life with more presence, more clarity, and more capacity.

Inside this 4 Month hybrid training program, you will learn to:

✨ Reshape your relationship with rest
✨ Lead from your body’s wisdom
✨ Break cycles of urgency + burnout
✨ Reclaim yoga as a path of liberation
✨ Root your voice in truth and compassion
✨ Belong to a community that sees you

If a part of you is craving this, a steadier nervous system, a bolder voice, a softer heart, trust that longing. Transformation begins when you choose yourself.

Enrollment is open until spots are filled here → www.ziayogawellness.com/changemakers

Did you know we offer a variety of pricing structures?

Our Community Support Scholarship program is a bridge toward the world that we want to see, where wellness, yoga, and healing tools are available to all for monthly specialty programs, memberships, and other programming, and a form of equalization and wealth distribution so those who do not historically have access can move through this small action towards redistribution of resources.

Community Scholarships allow anyone to discover...

👉 A deep CONNECTION to a community that feels like it was made to support them (because it was), where you can show up exactly as you are and be loved, supported, and guided to be your best self?

​​👉 Moving your body with confidence in ways that felt good and increased your strength, confidence, and energy?

​​👉 Letting go of the old drama you were used to feeling around your wellness (i.e., shame, guilt, overwhelm, anxiety, etc.)?

Doing anything with intention is practicing yoga.

Yoga isn’t limited to the mat; it’s how we breathe through chaos, how we listen deeply, how we move through the world with awareness.

The truth is, every intentional act, a mindful sip of tea, tidying a stack of blankets, a conscious breath before responding, a moment of gratitude - all of this is yoga in action.

At Zia Yoga & Wellness, we honor yoga as a practice of presence and agency, one that invites you back home to yourself.

If you're looking for a community where you can...

👉 Feel a deep CONNECTION to a community that feels like it was made to support them (because it was), where you can show up exactly as you are and be loved, supported, and guided to be your best self?

​​👉 Move your body with confidence in ways that feel good and increase your strength, confidence, and energy?

09/26/2025

Over the years, I’ve come to understand that listening, learning, questioning, doing, and simply experiencing are all part of how we come to know ourselves more deeply. I’ve also learned that stillness is underrated, and slow is powerful.

I am always grateful for the privilege of doing this work. And yet, lately I’ve been standing at the edge of exhaustion. I know many of you have felt the same. Yoga reminds us that exhaustion makes us vulnerable, pulling us into a reactive state, pushing us into fight or flight, and keeping us from focusing on what matters most.

Right now, many of us are hitting the proverbial “marathon wall” (between miles 18-22, described as the hardest part of a marathon when glycogen stores deplete). To my left and to my right, I see others ready to drop, unsure if they can keep going.

The truth? These are the very moments when we need each other most. This is when we share encouragement, when we lift each other up, when we discover that resilience is not only something we carry within ourselves, but it lives in the collective strength of our community.

Whether you've been practicing for years or just beginning to crave space to pause, realign, and meet yourself with care, I’d love for you to join us.

🍂 Has anyone else felt a huge shift in energy this week?

With the fall equinox just a few weeks away, it's hard not to notice the pivotal transformation in nature's rhythm and the resulting sense of feeling as unsteady and shakable as the autumn leaves within our bodies and minds.

As the days shorten and temperatures cool, fall is a great time to recalibrate and restore balance... See where this is going?

The truth is, any time is a good time for a regular yoga practice.

Join us this week to cultivate a sense of inner peace and resilience during this transitional season!

Our Story

In the nearly two decades I’ve been practicing yoga, I’ve heard every stereotype and myth about yogis and the yoga world. But the one that has always bugged me the most is that “real” yogis are super thin, bendy, hippy-dippy, woo-woo, tree-hugging flower children who care more about balancing their chakras than their checkbooks.

In fact, most of the people you’ll meet in our community look more like you than like the picture I painted above.

The truth is there is no one “type” of yogi or yoga studio. Yet, we’ve all been to a yoga or fitness class where we were made to feel like we didn’t belong, or we weren’t [thin / strong/ flexible/ young/ athletic/ spiritual/ chill] enough to be there.

When I opened Zia Yoga, I was committed to creating a space where everyone felt not just welcomed – but as though they were exactly where they were meant to be.
