Join us for a liberating and judgment-free time of dance, music, and community, where you can truly embody the natural expression and flow of your Higher Self. Tune into your body and allow it to move exactly the way it wants to — twirling and leaping across the dance floor, gently swaying, or even simply breathing with awareness... Let your body’s innate wisdom be your guide.

A few simple guidelines help us set a sacred space for ecstatic dance:
* Focus on inner awareness of your own self and body
* Leave phones/cameras and conversation off the dance floor
* Please avoid wearing non-natural scents
* Bare feet (unless shoes are needed for support)

The dance is hosted by Clarissa Rae, who’s facilitated healing and freeing ecstatic dance journeys since 2019.

Please arrive by 5:45 so we can get started on time. $25 for the experience; $20 for Uttara Unlimited Members

Join us for an in-town retreat and discover how the timeless wisdom from the sacred text The Bhagavad Gita can help us to navigate these challenging times.

Take a day for yourself and explore some wonderful tools to help you maintain your peace. Not only will we explore the teachings from The Gita, but we will also practice asana, breath, and mantra. Bring a journal or notebook to use during the reflective parts of the day to clarify your thoughts and emotions.

Be with like-minded individuals and examine the philosophical discourse between Prince Arjuna and Lord Krishna through lively conversation, various yoga practices and meditations to help us deal with the stress and uncertainty that many of us are facing.

We will have a Potluck lunch and ask all participants to please bring a dish!

$108 for the day-long experience; $87 for Uttara Unlimited Members.

Class Spotlight: Somatic Movement & Mindful Yoga
Somatic Movement, based on the teachings of Thomas Hanna, provides soothing for your nervous system through small precise movements that create new neuromuscular pathways allowing you to connect deeply with your Soma, your living bodily experience from the inside out. Feel more embodied as you release pain, muscle tension, invite ease, greater alignment and freedom of movement.

Mindful Yoga invites grounding through a shorter gentle yoga practice followed by a variety of practices like Yoga Nidra, guided breath awareness, guided relaxation, and instruction in accessible mindfulness techniques of Shinzen Young and Unified Mindfulness. Each session will end with a mindfulness approach to help you find a deeper sense of self, stillness, and equanimity.

Trauma-Conscious Yoga Series with Suzanne Alexandre

Empower Your Healing Journey with Compassionate Movement & Mindfulness

Join us for a gentle, supportive 4-week Trauma-Conscious Yoga series designed to meet you exactly where you are—physically, mentally, and emotionally. This series offers a compassionate approach to yoga that prioritizes safety, choice, and personal empowerment. Trauma-Conscious Yoga is a method rooted in the understanding that healing is deeply personal. Through accessible movement, grounding breathwork, and guided meditation, this series creates a safe, predictable space where you are invited—not instructed—to explore what feels right in your body.

Whether you’re new to yoga or returning to your practice, this series is for anyone seeking connection, calm, and inner resilience.

Each 60-minute session is carefully curated to:
🧠 Promote self-awareness and nervous system regulation
☮️ Offer gentle postures with options and modifications
🪷 Encourage mindfulness and self-compassion
🤍 Foster a sense of safety and autonomy in your body

No previous yoga experience is required. All bodies and backgrounds are welcome. Come as you are, and move at your own pace.

$80 for the full 4-week series; $25 to drop in weekly.

There are a few need-based scholarships available; please reach out to apply.

Curious about yoga? Or looking to refine your personal practice?

This four-week series is designed for beginners or anyone looking to reconnect with yoga fundamentals.

Each session includes elements of education, guided breathing, and gentle yoga sequences.

No experience necessary. Drop-ins are welcome; join for the full series or come when you can.

🌕Only 5 Spots Left! 🌕

Come Home to Your Body. Breathe Into Your Power.

This isn’t just a breathwork session — it’s a sacred return to yourself.

✨ And this time, you’ll feel it even more clearly — with upgraded sound quality to fully immerse you in the music, guidance, and healing energy. ✨

Join us for an evening of deep release, emotional alchemy, and nervous system healing in a safe, heart-held space.

Through the power of the breath, we’ll move energy, clear what no longer fits, and reconnect to the version of you that’s been waiting underneath it all — calm, clear, empowered, and alive.

✨ Feel held as you unravel stress, overwhelm, and stored emotion
✨ Regulate your nervous system and create inner spaciousness
✨ Reconnect to your body’s wisdom and intuition
✨ Receive the clarity and peace your soul has been craving

Whether you’re navigating motherhood, transitions, or simply need a place to exhale — this session will meet you where you are and breathe you back home.
You don’t need to talk through it. You just need to breathe. Join us July 11. Let your breath lead the way.

🌟 Spots are now limited to 19 — and these sessions always sell out.
If you feel the pull, trust it. Your body knows. Reserve your space now and don’t miss the transformation your soul has been waiting for.
