August in Alaska is a lesson in transition. It’s that funny in-between month, we’re still soaking up summer, but there’s a whisper of structure creeping back in. Backpacks are getting dusted off, routines are slowly reappearing, and suddenly you’re craving both sunshine and a planner. Whether you’re heading back to school, back to work, or just back to a little more rhythm, your mat is the perfect place to land. This month, let yoga be your reset button, where you can stretch, breathe, and remember that transitions don’t have to be rushed. Here’s what we’ve got going on at Auke Bay Yoga this month:

At Auke Bay Yoga, we believe that something magical happens when people come together to breathe, move, and connect. It’s not just about the poses, it’s about the presence. It’s the laughter after class, the stillness in savasana, the sense that you’re truly seen and supported just as you are.

And what makes this community thrive? You!

It’s every time you show up to your mat early in the morning or after a long day. It’s the way you smile at a new student, the way you breathe through challenges, the way you support this space not just with your presence, but with your energy.

We’ve built something special here together. Coming to the studio is more than just practicing yoga. It is an opportunity to connect- with yourself, and with each other. You are part of something bigger. You are part of a community! Auke Bay Yoga has and continues to build a community of healers, nurturers, leaders, curious people, wayfinders, and wisdom-sharers both in and outside of our four walls.

What if your yoga practice could taste a little different? Feel a little more fluid, more intuitive, more alive?

This weekend, we’re honored to host a rare and beautiful opportunity: Hunt Parr, a gifted teacher originally from Petersburg, Alaska (now based in NYC), is coming home to Southeast for a weekend of soulful, embodied, and inspired yoga workshops from July 18th–20th.

Hunt’s teaching blends deep somatic wisdom, years of dance training, and a longtime study of Tibetan Buddhism. His classes invite you to move from the inside out. It is an invitation to explore the artistry of your breath, the intelligence of your body, and the power of presence.

This is yoga as nourishment. Yoga as poetry. Yoga that moves you, in every sense of the word.

We’re so lucky to live in a place where the mountains meet the ocean, where the long summer light stretches out just long enough to remind us we’re alive and even luckier when world-class teachers like Hunt bring their wisdom to our little corner of the world.

Here’s what’s happening:
✨Arrive & Unwind Evening Yoga Class on Fri 7/18 5:30-6:45pm

✨Strong, Steady & Playful Yoga Class on Sat 7/19 9-10:15am

Some people talk about yoga as nutritious movement. One of the many essentials that we feed into our mind, body and soul to support growth and wellness. This weekend we’ve got an amazing opportunity for our Auke Bay Yoga community to mix it up and sample new flavors of movement.

July 18th–20th, we’re thrilled to welcome guest teacher Hunt Parr for a weekend of workshops that go beyond the ordinary. Originally from Petersburg, Alaska and now based in New York City, Hunt returns to Southeast with a vibrant presence, a deep yoga practice, and a rich background in dance that infuses his teaching with creativity, rhythm, and soul.

While the weekend will be fully rooted in yoga, Hunt’s experience as a dancer brings a powerful and unique lens. One that invites students to move with more fluidity, more artistry, and a deeper connection to the body’s natural intelligence.

Yoga, dance and other somatic movement practices, though different in form, share a powerful truth. They ask us to move from the inside out. They call us to step out of the analytical mind and into the rich terrain of the sensing, feeling body. They remind us that movement is rich, nourishing and tasty infusing our systems with breath, shape, and sensation.
