Oooohhh this Tent is a good one 🔥 It was the most powerful and impactful for me the first time I did it in Korea with the amazing The Joy Weaver. It’s rage room meets a really good vent session with friends. Snag your spot next Sunday 7/20 1:30-3:30pm @ Rouse Yoga.

One week until Messages From Your Body Red Tent ♥️

If you’re looking for some you-time, a breath of calm in your busy schedule for self-reflection and clarity, come join me in sacred space Saturday May 17th from 1-3pm at Rouse Yoga & Holistic Corner. Our theme for May is Messages From Your Body. $20. Light snacks and tea will be provided. Sign up at rouse.yoga/events

What is Red Tent?

Red Tent is a safe space for you to be vulnerable, share, and connect with others. You will learn more about yourself and leave with tools to use in your own life.

May’s Theme: Messages From Your Body

In this month’s Tent, you’ll be guided through a body scan meditation revisiting positive memories stored in the body. We will also craft letters from our bodys to ourselves. What does your body want you to know? What has it been trying to tell you?
There will be journaling, soul care time, and space for sharing. I always leave Tent with nuggets of wisdom. I feel more centered, connected and grounded within myself. I feel less alone by hearing others share the same struggles, blockages, or fears. Red Tent is so affirming.

What to Bring?

Come in clothes that make you feel comfortable or magical. You do not have to wear red. Bring a journal & pen, water or thermos for hot tea, and a cozy blanket or sweater as we’ll be on yoga blankets/bolsters on the floor for the majority of the 2 hour session.

Sat May 17th 1-3pm. $20. If cost is an issue, message me and we can work out an alternative. Please do not let cost hold you back from attending. I would love to have you!

Red Tents are sacred space meets group therapy. Powerful, connecting and enlightening ✨ Tent is a safe space for you to be vulnerable, share, and connect with others. You will learn more about yourself, and leave with tools to use in your own life.

Join us for an evening of growth, community, and learning. A new offering at Rouse Yoga: monthly Red Tent communal sacred space.

❣️History of Red Tent:

The term Red Tent was introduced to westerners through Anita Diamant’s 1997 novel of the same name. While her version of the red tent is fictional, menstrual tents and huts were common in pre-modern cultures around the world.

The concept of a red tent draws inspiration from ancient cultures where menstruating women would gather in a separate space, often called a “red tent” or “moon lodge,” to rest and connect, and pass down wisdom, support, and encouragement between generations.

Modern Red Tents typically meet monthly and involve a ritual “container” with specific activities and discussions that vary each month. While some Tents may focus on menstrual cycles, our themes will be different each time.

While historical Red Tents are for women only, mine are open to all genders, ages 16+. You do not have to wear red. Come in clothes that make you feel comfortable or magical. Bring a journal & pen, water or thermos for hot tea, and a cozy blanket or sweater as we’ll be on yoga blankets and bolsters on the floor for the majority of the 1.5 hours. Hot tea and light snacks will be provided.

❣️My background:

I was taught and co-led tents for the past 2 years with my amazing friend and Rent Tent author Aj Smit . Her book “Red Thread: Weaving an Embodied Life of Joy” will be our guide, which I’ll use to lead us through monthly themes such as Creativity, Anger, Sanctuary, Cycles, Vulnerability and more.

❣️April’s Theme: How We Grow 🌱

In this month’s tent, you’ll be guided through a future-you meditation as well as a meet your guiding council activity. There will be journaling, soul care time, and space for sharing. Sign up at rouse.yoga or in person at the studio.

I like to say Red Tents are group therapy meets sacred space. So powerful, connecting and enlightening ✨ Tent is a safe space for you to connect with others, learn something, and leave with tools to use afterward. I hope to see you there 🤗

Guys, I’m so excited to announce I’m back to teaching in person group yoga classes 😁 After taking a year of leave to move from South Korea to southern California, have my second baby, recover physically, and gain enough new footing sleep and routine-wise, I felt called to resume teaching. I love it so much.

I’m so excited to see familiar student’s faces weekly, and to challenge my brain with something non mom-related. Creating sequences is so fun and I love to tailor it to my students requests and bodies.

I feel so honored to be a part of the Rouse Yoga family 🕉️💙 There’s something so special to the feeling of practicing in a dedicated yoga space rather than a big box gym. Rouse Yoga and I finding each other was truly meant to be.

If you’re in the Riverside area come check out my Hot Yoga (All Levels) class every Tuesday evening 6:15-7:15pm. Drop in is really affordable at $10, or you can try a whole week of yoga for FREE.
