Looking to learn to fly? Our next Aerial Yoga Beginners Workshop is this Saturday from 12:30-2:30.

The beauty of aerial yoga is that it is available to ALL level yogis! No prior experience is necessary. However, if you do currently practice yoga, it allows you to explore asanas in a whole new way, deepening your practice.
It’s a win-win!

Join this year's Om Land Yoga Teacher Training Students as they lead their first public yoga classes.

Five Saturday mornings, 9-10 at the Bangor Studio. April 20; April 27; May 11; May 18; May 25. Attendance by cash donation only ($5 or more recommended).

All proceeds will go to this year's student selected recipient: Sarah's House of Maine

Sarah's House of Maine helps people get the cancer care they need, changes lives, and helps save lives. For many Mainers faced with a cancer diagnosis, life seems to stop.
They suddenly find themselves in a raging storm of emotions, treatment choices, and financial challenges. For some, they have tough decisions to make about where, and when, to receive care.
There are many others who opt to forgo treatment. They do so because long, frequent trips to Brewer cause physical and financial burdens on both the patients and their families.
Sarah’s House serves all these people, and makes much-needed treatment options more accessible to those who would otherwise choose not to travel.

"Thief's Yoga" - new class, starts next month.

No bread, as in cash, was reported stolen but plenty of other bread was taken, including almond croissants.

Hot Yoga is ON for tonight!
See you in Brewer at 5:30!!!

01/14/2024

January nights are giving big fire vibes at Om Land Yoga! Join us for heated practice tonight, Tuesday, or Friday! 🔥🔥🔥

IT'S HOT YOGA NIGHT!!!
Happy Friday yogis, you may have noticed some minor changes on our schedule for Hot Yoga classes; here's the deal:
Hot Yoga has been clarified into two class levels, I & II. Although nothing has changed regarding how Isis and Kasia lead their practices, it is now easier for everyone to decide which class time might be the best choice on any given day, based on the following new class descriptions.

Hot Yoga I
Yoga in our heated studio can help stimulate good circulation and a healthy sweat! Join us for vinyasa flow, attention to breath, and mindful strength in the heat.

Hot Yoga II
This class offers vinyasa flow in a heated studio environment just like our Hot Yoga I. A bit more rigorous in nature, Hot Yoga II may offer more complex postures, the option to sustain strength for a longer time, or a slightly more lively pace. This is not a beginner level class.

Also, we've added a brand new Hot Yoga class time! Level II is now happening (starting this weekend!) on Sundays at 5:00.

Tonight's classes are filling up; we look forward to seeing you there! 🔥
