Yoga isn't just for "yogis" 📣

If you've ever thought yoga wasn't your thing—maybe you're not flexible enough, spiritual enough, calm enough—you're not alone. But here’s the truth: 
 
There’s really no such thing as a “yogi.”

They're simply people, just like you. Busy, real people juggling all of life's things, who carve out a bit of time to breathe, move, and reconnect with themselves. ✨

Whether you’re brand new or coming back after a long break, our classes are here to meet you exactly where you are—no expectations, no pressure.

Our Intro Passes give you a chance to meet our teachers, try different class types and dip your toes into everything we offer at Maha without making a huge commitment. 💫

Summer's not slowing down—but you can 💡

When you choose to prioritize your physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, everyone benefits — not just you.
 
But we get it: summer is full, and life tends to pull your focus in a dozen different directions. 😅 That’s exactly why making time for yourself isn’t about having time — it’s about making a commitment.

Here's the secret: schedule it. 🗓️ Treat your self-care like the essential appointment it is. Block it off in your calendar. Protect it. Let it become non-negotiable — to everyone, including yourself.
 
For some, simply booking your next class is the spark that turns good intentions into lasting habits.💫
 
And when you show up for yourself, it doesn’t stop there — the positive impact ripples out to those around you.
 
You’re worth the time. Book your next class today! 🔗 in bio! ⬆️

Thank you for celebrating PRIDE with Maha! 🏳️‍🌈

We wanted to share an update on the success of our Pride Month fundraiser at Maha. 🥳 Thanks to YOU, we have already raised $1,077! 🎉 How cool is that?!

We're thrilled to be able to send this check to The Trevor Project, whose mission is to end su***de for LGBTQ+ youth. 

Thanks to each of you who contributed, whether you joined us for our fundraising class, snagged one of our awesome shirts, or sent in a donation online. Every little bit counts, and your contribution truly matters. 💙

We'll be selling PRIDE merch and collecting donations until the end of the month, so there are still a few days left, if you haven't already participated. 🔗 in bio!
 
We’re grateful to have you as a part of the Maha community. Sending lots of gratitude your way! 🌈

Fundraising class this Saturday to support LGBTQ+ youth 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

➡️ It was so heartbreaking last week to follow the news as ICE agents tore through communities, ripped families apart and detained (non-criminal) immigrants. It devastated me, and I feel so helpless and hopeless.

I felt uncomfortable promoting this fundraiser as these larger issues rage in our country, but gave myself a gentle talking to: we are advocating for the same thing. 
 
We are seeking connection, wholeness and love. 💜 We acknowledge the inalienable dignity of every human being, no matter their sexual orientation, their immigration status, the language they speak or the color of their skin. 
 
As we continue to resist our president’s interest in promoting himself to some type of monarchy, I remember that no one is free when others are oppressed.
 
This Saturday, June 21st at 9:30am, we gather—not just to raise funds for The Trevor Project, but to affirm life, dignity, and love in the face of fear and division. 📣
 
There are countless causes to plug into these days, and they are all worthy of our support. Join us, and let this act of community be its own kind of resistance—and a powerful gesture of hope. 🌈
 
100% of the proceeds from class will go to The Trevor Project. Can't make it? Donate instead. 🔗 in bio! ⬆️

Shoulder tightness from carrying your kids? 🤔 We got you. 🙌🏼

Maha Mobility is designed to help you cultivate true, usable strength in your joints. 
 
This work is especially important for yoga practitioners. While many asanas ask for an impressive range of motion, they don’t always train the underlying strength and joint control needed to support those shapes over time. That’s where Maha Mobility comes in.✨

Rachel came to Maha with persistent tightness and discomfort in her shoulders—especially on the right side, where she usually carries her kids. 
 
Now, with Maha Mobility, Rachel’s moving more freely, with greater control and less pain— and not just in the studio.
 
Maha Mobility: 
✅ Improves joint health and longevity

✅ Enhances control through a full range of motion

✅ Supports stronger, more sustainable asana practice

✅ Builds resilience in your body

We are spending the next few weeks on shoulders and we hope you will join us! 🔥

Practice with Justicia in a downtempo, accessible format 📣

I think many of us have had a similar experience in a “beginners” yoga class. The instruction is too fast paced, the language unclear and it feels inaccessible. 😅

That’s why we added foundations to our weekly class schedule on Friday evenings with Justicia. Foundations is a slower, informative practice designed for beginners and anyone seeking a more detailed practice. 💫

Foundations is: 

⭐️ A great place to start if you’re new to yoga,

⭐️ A way to ease back into your practice if you’ve taken some time off (for injury or otherwise),
⭐️ A chance to learn the basics that will set the foundation for a lifelong practice

See you on Friday 5:30pm! 🔥

Join Maha in supporting q***r youth this June 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

➡️ I grew up q***r in the Midwest and came out in high school, before the internet, in the 90s. Things were hard for me but to be honest, much harder for others. Over the years, I lost multiple friends to su***de and overdose.

The promise of the 90s and early 2000s was that things would continue to move in a more and more progressive direction. But now we are seeing a regressive cultural swing, and it remains dangerous and stigmatizing to be a young q***r person in the United States.

And the fact is that young members of the LGBTQ+ community are at high risk of su***de today. Among 11-24 year olds, su***de is the second leading cause of death (following gun violence), and q***r and trans youth are roughly four times more likely than their heterosexual peers to attempt su***de. 😔

That’s why we’re fundraising for The Trevor Project this year, whose mission is to end su***de among q***r youth. 💜 I am so passionate about this organization’s work, and am proud to support their efforts.

Here’s how you can get involved: 

🌈Order your rainbow pride merch. 

🏳️‍🌈Register for my special fundraising yoga class on Saturday, June 21st at 9:30am.

⭐️Can't make class, don't need a shirt, but want to contribute? Donate $25.

Bring your friends to Maha’s Open House! 🥳

Maha is not a hip, pretentious studio. We’re real people who want to move intelligently. And while we find that most people come to Maha looking to move better, build strength, and feel better, they end up staying for the community. ✨

On Saturday, May 17th, we’re hosting an Open House. Join us for great yoga and good company. 😊 We’ll have drinks and snacks, specials and giveaways, and a celebratory vibe for all!
