Beautiful summer morning to you,
Can you believe we've already been in the new studio for one month?
As I look around the room each day, I'm filled with so. much. gratitude. What began as a dream has quickly become a welcoming space where people are moving, breathing, laughing, learning, and building friendships. Thank you for helping make Vrksasana Yoga feel like home.
Over the past month we've celebrated our Ribbon Cutting & Grand Opening, welcomed many new students through our doors, introduced new teachers with new classes and workshops, launched The Shop, and watched our FREE Friday Community Yoga classes continue to grow. It has been an incredible beginning, and we're just getting started.
🌄 Outdoor Class Experiences
Our Sunrise Series and Full Moon Rise Series have generated so much excitement!
Registration will officially open shortly after the Fourth of July holiday weekend. These small-group outdoor experiences are set in our very own Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, and are designed to help you slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the beauty of the White Mountains in a truly memorable way. Stay tuned—details will be coming soon!
🧘 Schedule Updates
✔️ Thursday, July 3 – Regular class schedule.
🇺🇸 Friday, July 4 – The studio will be closed as we celebrate Independence Day with family, friends, and community.
Beginning Thursday, July 9, we're excited to expand our weekly schedule with two new classes led by Pat:
🌿Hatha Yoga: Foundations & Alignment
Thursdays • 4:00 PM
Slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with your body through the timeless practice of Hatha Yoga. This all-levels class explores foundational poses with thoughtful instruction, helping you build strength, balance, flexibility, and confidence one breath at a time.
🌙 Yoga Nidra: Deep Rest & Renewal
Thursdays • 5:30 PM
Experience deep relaxation through the practice of Yoga Nidra, often called "yogic sleep." While comfortably supported, you'll be gently guided into a state of restful awareness that helps calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and promote profound physical and mental restoration. No experience is necessary—simply come as you are and allow yourself to rest.
Both classes are included with all memberships, punch cards, and passes, and we're thrilled to be able to offer even more opportunities to support your practice.
✨July Workshops
We're putting the finishing touches on a few exciting workshops for July and can't wait to share them with you. Keep an eye on your inbox and our social media pages for announcements in the coming days!
🌲Thank You
Whether you've attended one class or many, invited a friend, left a kind review, shopped in The Shop, or simply encouraged us along the way—thank you. Every smile, conversation, and shared practice has helped build this beautiful community.
As we head into the holiday week, I hope you find time to rest, explore, laugh, and make wonderful memories with the people you love.
Wishing you a safe, adventurous, and joyful Fourth of July as we celebrate the 🇺🇸 250th Birthday of the United States!
Thank you for being part of the Vrksasana family.
