We’ve been working on unifying the studio’s message behind-the-scenes and we are really excited to begin sharing with you.
Merging both studios and surviving the pandemic has been the ultimate challenge. It’s not always been the smoothest journey but honestly, it’s been hard. Seeing our neighboring businesses shutter and the Portland community struggle through isolation pushed us to uncomfortable edges.
So we decided to take the leap and invest in our message, our brand and in reconnecting with this incredible community.
We are stepping up to the plate and trusting that our message will cut through the noise.
We believe that our voice can rewrite the narrative of our relationship to health. That this work is beyond the goals of the physical practice but shifts the way we respond to the world.
This practice is a self-discovery, it’s the hard work that builds resiliency and agency. This is the inner work that is needed so we can be the parents, co-workers, neighbors and citizens that respond, care and give back.
We know this practice is for everyone and we are ready to be an accessible and brave home for folks ready to build a dedicated practice.
Tomorrow! Sunday 1/19, @savannabesnackin will be leading a two hour Self Massage & Fascial Release workshop. Start to release those pesky areas of fascial tightness and learn how to let go of grip patterns so that you can find more freedom in your flow. This workshop will be spent rolling out your muscles and stretching the facial lines of your body from your feet to your head. You'll leave with plenty of tips and tricks you can take with you anywhere you and your body go!

Salutations to the glorious primal (original) guru, Sri Adinath (Lord Siva), who instructed the knowledge of Hatha yoga which shines forth as a stairway for those to ascend to the highest stage of yoga, raja yoga. — Hatha Yoga Pradipika 1.1

Amanda Brown @so.humm is seen in this video practicing a full prostration. The prostration is the physical expression of bowing to all the teachers who have gone before and continued to pass the lineage of yoga down to us today. Om Namah Sivaya!

You can catch Amanda Monday through Saturday at both @yogabhogapdx locations. Her humility, dedication and ability to allow the teachings come through her is palatable. 💫
The one and only @lovelesslearning will be hosting a deeply informative workshop entitled Inside Out tomorrow, Sunday July 14th, 1 - 3 pm at our SE Belmont location. Krista will be guiding and cuing postures from the organs, the breath and the deep stabilizers of the inner body. This workshop is a deep dive into the world of alignment beyond the surface, what it means, and how the entire body supports it.

For more information and to register please visit our website. Oh! And we almost forget to mention that you can bring a friend for free!!!
The Yogis Garden workshop with @blairartthou is this Sunday, June 30th, 1:30 - 3pm. The movement practice will be inspired by the life cycle of the seed. And... You will have the opportunity to pot a plant and take your new little friend home with you!

Preregistration is highly encouraged so Blair will be prepared with the necessary supplies.
Christmas has passed but joy is still in our mailbox. I may be opening this late but it still filled us, @lovelesslearning and @uslennar , with the spirit of the holidays. Thanks to all of our students for making this winter an extra special one.
We are big advocates of the foot 🦶 work called ‘Pada Bandha’ Yoga Bhoga ! But working with this foot engagement is tricky at first especially if the fascia of the feet is bound up (which it is for most of us!). Luckily, the talented Savanna Wonderwheel ~ @savannabesnackin ~ will be at your service in Saturday, December 15th, with her wildly popular Self Massage & Fascial Release workshop. Spend your Saturday evening, 6:30-8:30pm, working with different sized balls to unwind the knots in your fascia from your feet all the way up the chain of your body!

To learn more about fascia, fascial release and why it matters, have a look at Savanna’s blog on our website. You can also enroll for her workshop through our website. You will leave this workshop feeling longer, lighter, and livelier! Plus you’ll have tools to take with you wherever your travels may take you over the holidays (you can roll your feet on your flight ✈️).
We are always so grateful for the students who care for our studio and keep it clean for the community. Lisa @lisabeeeee sent us this super fun video of her taking care of herself and the space. Thank you for all that you do Lisa!
... and in with the new, which we are still refining.
