There’s something about May in northern Minnesota. The light stretches longer. The lakes begin to shimmer again. The air carries that subtle promise of summer. Read more:

Hi everyone, I hope this message finds you safe and as grounded as you can be right now. This time in Minnesota has been incredibly heavy.

I’d like to offer space this Saturday to care for our nervous systems, to move, to breathe, and to show up fully. Both for ourselves and for one another.

This Saturday, I’ll be leading a class at Portage Brewing in Walker, MN. Our focus will be on practices that help calm the nervous system, invite presence, and allow gentle reconnection with our bodies and breath. The atmosphere will be supportive and welcoming for all levels of experience.

Here’s what to know:
📍 Where: Portage Brewing, Walker, MN
🗓️ When: This Saturday, January 31st
⏱️ Time & details: 10:00-11:00am + included beverage after class

Please come as you are. Dress comfortably. Bring a mat, a blanket if you’d like, water, and anything that helps you feel comfortable. This is a space to just be.

I LOVE this tradition. Personally, I’ve practiced these same journaling questions for over a decade. I’ve found that whether it’s your first year, or fifth, the process is the perfect way to reflect on the year and decide what you’d like to intentionally spend your energy on in the year ahea...

Just like January feels different from July, or a camping trip offers different benefits than a spa weekend, our retreats also have their own personality.

Before 2026 unfurls, let’s walk through ideas. Some are oldies but goodies, and some are brand-spankin-new!

Looking forward to an experience, savoring it afterward, and remembering the moments in between gives you multiple waves of joy.

My Story

Hi there, my name is Bryana and I feel fortunate to call the Leech Lake area home. I teach weekly yoga classes and I am available by appointment for individual sessions. My style of teaching is one that embraces all-levels: beginner to experienced. I believe in a holistic approach: the mind and body are connected! I am trained in vinyasa-style yoga and I also teach gentle yoga, yoga nidra, meditation, myofascial release, and children’s yoga classes. I offer modifications and accessible cues in class.

Not sure about a group class just yet, but interested in what yoga, breathing, and meditation can do for you? I am deep into my studies in yoga therapy to become a C-IAYT (certified yoga therapist with International Assoc. of Yoga Therapy). We can schedule a private yoga therapy session to suit your needs and goals.

In addition to group classes and individual sessions, I also offer yoga and wellness retreats with my partners from Duluth, MN: Joella Miller and Amanda Imes. We provide opportunities to retreat into the wilderness of Minnesota: Journey North and Connect, Explore, Relax with us. Check us out at Boreal Bliss Yoga Retreats for more information: www.borealblissyogaretreats.com.
