Hippie Yoga

04/27/2026

Slowing down sounds nice… until you actually try to do it.

Then suddenly:

your brain won’t stop
your body feels restless
and you’re thinking about your to-do list mid-breath

Hot take: that’s exactly why you need it.

The slower classes are often the hardest ones to walk into… and the ones your body thanks you for later.

If you’ve been go-go-go lately, this is your nudge.

Shades Of Pink walk at the Detroit Zoo was great! Loved seeing the Hippie Yoga community come together to support others battling breast cancer. Also great to spend time outdoors with the animals.

We want you on the mat. And we also want you in the garden. In the park with your grandkids. On a walk with your dog. On your knees pulling weeds without your back giving you grief about it. Yoga is the thing that makes all of that easier. That's the whole point. Happy Earth Day from Hippie Yoga. 💚 Go outside.

Traditional yoga had a lot of rules about what yoga was supposed to look like.
We let most of those go.
Because the best version of yoga is the one that actually works for you. And that looks different for every single body in the room.
That's what we've always believed at Hippie Yoga. It's why we're still here after 11 years.
Come do yoga your way. ↓ Link in bio.

Hot take: 'traditional' yoga isn't automatically better yoga. We know more about the human body than we did 50 years ago. We know what creates sustainable movement, what protects your joints, what actually builds longevity. Yoga should reflect that. We're not interested in tradition for tradition's sake. We're interested in what works. That's what we teach at Hippie Yoga.

Yoga should be doing better than just “traditional” yoga

A long-time yoga students came through our yoga teacher training. She had been practicing for years. She knew the poses. She thought she knew how yoga was supposed to feel. Then during training, we put props under her in a seated pose. Her hips lifted. Her spine settled. Her whole body got comfortable in a way it never had before. She looked up and said: 'Oh my gosh. This is so much more comfortable. I thought using props was cheating. I thought I needed to change my body or struggle through the pose' That's it. That's the whole lesson. Props aren't cheating. They're how the pose is actually supposed to feel. 💚

The people who grab the props are doing it right. The block. The strap. The blanket. They're not shortcuts. They're how the pose is supposed to feel in your body. Using them means you understand your body better than the person white-knuckling it next to you. Grab the block. 🌿
