🤩 Today’s Teacher Spotlight: Andy Rines! 🤩

Say hello to , the heart behind our Saturday morning “Weekend Wake Up” class at 8:30 AM! 🌅 Andy has been a beloved part of our Yogalution community for years and officially joined our Peace Ambassador/teaching team in August 2023. His journey from student to teacher is a beautiful testament to the power of yoga, transformation, and finding home within community.

Originally from western Massachusetts, Andy moved to Long Beach in 2019, and immediately felt at home. It was here, through Yoga on the Bluff and our studio classes, that he found a community, healing, and self-discovery. After experiencing firsthand the transformative power of yoga, he took the leap and completed his 200-hour yoga teacher training in Spring of 2023.

Andy’s classes are rooted in authenticity, vulnerability, and heart. Instead of letting hardships define him, he used yoga as a path to self-growth and empowerment—and now he shares that journey with his students every weekend.

Catch Andy every Saturday at 8:30 AM for “Weekend Wake Up”—a dynamic, heart-centered Vinyasa flow to start your weekend feeling energized and aligned. 🌞

We’re so grateful to have Andy as part of our Yogalution family! Drop some love in the comments if you’ve taken his class or plan to soon!

Meet Ursula Pascua, one of our incredibly dedicated teachers here at Yogalution Movement! 🤩

Ursula has been guiding our community with her wisdom and heart-centered teachings since 2023 and brings a deep sense of presence and compassion to every class.

A group meditation class opened the door to a lifelong exploration of Yoga—a path that brought her healing from both childhood challenges and years of competitive running. 

Since 2008, Ursula’s devotion to Yoga has been shaped by her studies of Vedic philosophy, trauma, somatics, and energy healing. She is passionate about inspiring others to cultivate their own practices for balanced, embodied living. 

Join Ursula for class:

“You are Worth the Effort”

The journey isn’t always easy, but YOU are worth every bit of it.

The time, the energy, the practice, the patience—it’s all an investment in the most sacred thing you have: yourself. When you choose yourself, you are rewriting your story.

Keep going—one step, one breath, one moment at a time.💛

A perfect day to spotlight one of our Peace Ambassadors, Erin Taylor! 🤩 

Erin has been involved with our community for many years through our Seva program, our Yoga Teacher Training Program, and this month marks THREE whole years of her teaching yoga classes to our community. Let’s celebrate her today!

It all started in 2016 when she moved from Ohio to Long Beach and fell in love with the healing arts. Erin would frequent Yoga on the Bluff, and while she noticed a lot of physical benefits from practicing yoga, it was the mental clarity, inner peace, and connection to spirit that changed her life in a profound way. 

She has since completed her 200-hr Yoga Teacher Training, became an Embodied Mindfulness Coach and Ayurvedic Health Coach, is a part of Oracle Gong, teaches meditation, and also provides mentorship to those who are seeking a deeper connection with themselves. 

If you haven’t met Erin yet or taken one of her classes, there is no better time than this week! She teaches every Wednesday at 9am “Peaceful Mind Flow” and her classes are a wonderful blend of yin and yang elements intended to balance your energy, increase your flexibility and calm your nervous system.
