Here’s a tip from Megh — try this is your back feels crunchy in upward dog!

Grab some blocks and get to a class soon! Maybe even a morning class if you’re vying for a t-shirt in the Sunrise Challenge ☀️

Participate in our Sunrise Challenge, get points for morning classes, and collect your prizes at the end! We know that these days it’s hard to get up in the morning, especially with the weather changing, but FEAR NOT! We have plenty of reasons for you to get up and start your day with yoga!! You can participate in this challenge either in-person or virtually.

HOW IT WORKS:
* collect points for each 7am, 8am, 8:15am, 9am, and 9:15am class you attend in January
* collect 20 points and receive a special t-shirt designed by Allison Whitehouse (the amazing artist who painted out murals) and be entered in a drawing for a grand prize!
* 20 points = 1 entry
* every additional 5 points after 20 gets you another entry
* grand prize includes t-shirt, $20 gift card, and a 30-minute private session

POINT SYSTEM:

This is one move you need to see in real time 👀

Moving slowly on the way down builds strength, especially when the way back up feels hard.

We play with this kind of mindful strength in our flow classes 💪 Come move with us soon!

As the year winds toward winter, November invites reflection. In a season often dominated by rushing, buying, and doing, slowing down to notice what’s here and to give thanks for it can feel radical.

At Yoga Baum, gratitude isn’t just a seasonal word. It’s how we move, rest, and connect in the pause before class begins, in the laughter afterward, and in every shared moment on the mat.

Modern research reminds us that gratitude really does change us by improving mental health, sleep, and even physical well-being (check our blog for the research links).

This month, practice gratitude as presence:

🕯️ join Candlelight Yoga (Mon 7:30-8:30 pm)
🌙 slow down at Restorative (Tues/Thurs 6:45-7:30 pm)
🧘 meditate on Saturday mornings (8:15-8:45 am)
✨ or come to our special Restore + Reiki event on December 6, 4:00-6:00pm

💫 Yoga for the Shoulders, Neck, and Upper Spine: From Fragility to Freedom 🙌

December 12–14 | with Jules Mitchell

Join us for an immersive weekend exploring the shoulders, neck, and upper spine, not as fragile parts to protect, but as powerful systems to understand. Through a blend of anatomy, biomechanics, and practice, you’ll learn how to move with greater confidence, strength, and ease. Jules Mitchell, author of Yoga Biomechanics: Stretching Redefined, guides this evidence-based weekend of discovery for yoga teachers and curious practitioners alike.

Expect to:
✨ Reframe “good posture” myths
✨ Understand mobility and hypermobility
✨ Explore strategies for neck & shoulder comfort
✨ Learn how tissue adaptation supports your freedom to move

📚 Yoga teachers earn 20 CEUs + access to a bonus online course.

Space is limited for this special weekend of learning and embodied practice. Sign up in the Online Store here: https://www.yogabaum.com/online-store/yoga-for-the-shoulders-neck-and-upper-spine

✨ Is Yoga Teacher Training Right for You? ✨

If you’ve ever rolled up your mat after class and wondered what it might be like to go deeper, to understand not just how yoga feels, but the why behind certain cues, principles, or positions, it might be time to explore teacher training.

At Yoga Baum, our 200-hour programs (Spring & Summer 2026) are designed for growth. You’ll learn, connect, and discover what yoga means to you, whether you dream of teaching or simply want to enrich your own practice.

🪷 Expect evidence-informed teaching, a supportive community, and space for genuine transformation on and off the mat.

✨ Applications are open now! Catch the early-bird deadlines while you can.
