Early next week brings in the Autumn season!

Can you believe it???

In our most recent newsletter, we shared some tips that may help you to shift into this new season with grace and health. We wanted to share them here for anyone who may not be on our mailing list (get on it!!).

One of the things we do at the studio when the weather shifts each year is shake up our class offerings: coming up next month look for more warming, comforting, and grounding classes. We are meant to shift with seasons in our daily routines which includes how we move our bodies.

At Breathe Ojai, our classes this season are designed to support the natural transitions between the seasons: expect slower flows, grounding pranayama, and nourishing community connection. Together, we welcome autumn with steadiness, warmth, and intention.

For example, the Monday 5:30pm class turns into a strong flow (in place of the current beginner class offering) and some of our other classes will also be changing…

We incorporate the wisdom of Ayurveda into the flow and life of Breathe Ojai. Ayurveda is a deeply vast body of knowledge that was born in the same place Yoga comes from (India) and has many, many parallels and opportunities for enrichment when it comes to the studio space. Autumn carries the qualities of Vata - light, dry, cool, and moving. To stay balanced, let’s invite in to nourishment through warmth, grounding rituals, and routine.

See you in the studio soon and be sure to get on our newsletter for more tips and exclusive behind the scenes shares 🦋

Darci has been leading classes with us at Breathe Ojai for over 5 months now and we think it's high time to give her her very own post!!

Full disclosure: she is a HIDDEN gem in the yoga community because 1. she's a newer teacher and 2. she newer to Ojai.

The reason why she's so great is because she EMBODIES what she teaches; she was brought up with yoga as an integral part of her life. We keep hearing how much depth and wisdom Darci is bringing to her classes and we are-here-for-it!

Give yourself the gift of checking out her weekly classes titled 'Breathe, Flow, and Let Go.'

TUESDAY 6:30PM
SATURDAY 8:45AM

The best part? Her classes are donation based starting at $5.

We are so proud to support new teachers who have lived a life of yoga who care about making it available to all. We are so proud of what Darci brings to the table and really encourage you to come and try out her classes. As always, reach out with any questions.

"Darci grew up surrounded by the wild beauty of Colorado before heading to New Orleans for university, where she studied and fell in love with Anthropology, Philosophy, and Religious Studies. She has been practicing yoga for over twelve years, and with a curiosity to deepen her practice, she recently completed a 200-hour teacher training at Sattva Yoga Academy in Rishikesh, India, where she studied under Anand Mehrotra and the Sattva community, rooted in the Himalayan Yoga tradition. The philosophical and spiritual teachings of the Vedic tradition resonate deeply with her, inspiring her to share the practices that have profoundly transformed the way she feels and moves through the world. In her classes, Darci offers an integrative approach, weaving together kriya, breathwork, movement, and meditation. She invites students into a playful and blissful exploration of practice, encouraging a connection to what feels nourishing and supportive for both body and mind while also challenging students to engage fully with each practice."

Part of Breathe Ojai's mission statement is to share about the roots of Yoga and today we would love to share about the one of the oldest threads:

The earliest evidence of yogic practices appears in the Indus Valley Civilization—archeological findings show figures in seated meditative postures, dating back over 5,000 years.

The Pashupati Seal, sometimes referred to as the Proto-Siva seal, is a famous steatite seal discovered at Mohenjo-daro, a key site of the Indus Valley Civilization.

It depicts a seated, possibly meditating, figure surrounded by animals, and is often interpreted as an early representation of the deity Shiva, specifically as Pashupati, the "Lord of Animals."

Tanner is back in the studio this summer leading a new class entitled ~Yin & Yang Summer Flow~ and it's exactly what it sounds like (;

Ease into the heart of summer with this balancing, grounding, and refreshing practice. Rooted in the traditions of Hatha and Yin Yoga, this class is designed to help you slow down, stretch out, and stay cool during the warm summer evenings.

We’ll begin with about 30 minutes of mindful, accessible movement to gently open the body and steady the breath, followed by some longer-held restorative postures and stretches to ease tension and relax the mind. The remainder of class is reserved for a long, dreamy savasana to fully integrate, restore, and reset.

See you tonight and every Thursday from 6:30-7:30pm.

Meet Alyssabeth! She's one of our new Breathe Ojai teachers and we couldn't be more proud to introduce her.

Join her in class Thursdays at noon for an all levels Hatha yoga class (Hatha is a just kind of like a 'regular' yoga class for lack of a better term).

Alyssabeth was lucky enough to be introduced to yoga in middle school and the spiritual practice of yoga became a guiding force in her life early on. She is a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, 'Warriors at Ease' Certified Teacher, and iRest Level 1 meditation instructor. When she’s not practicing yoga, leading retreats, or writing poetry, she’s likely camping, hiking, and enjoying nature with her spouse and 6-year-old ‘puppy,' Jaxon, any chance she gets!

Please help us welcome her to the Breathe Ojai family!
