Yoga with .heatherlilleston might be the juiciest way to spend your Saturday morning in Fairfax. ✨🪷

Rooted in years of training across styles—from Jivamukti to Iyengar to Taryn Toomey’s The Class—Heather’s teaching is dynamic, precise, and full of heart. Expect spot-on alignment cues, hands-on assists, and a playlist you’ll want to take home.

It’s not uncommon for class to feel like one foot on the mat, one foot on the dance floor.

Join us Saturdays at 9:30 AM to move through whatever’s alive for you, recharge your weekend, and, bottom line: have a great time.

See you on the mat.
