What does it really mean to "compact the hips" in Iyengar Yoga? It's the art of drawing the head of the femur deep into the hip socket — building a stable container in every asana. From that stability, something more subtle is experienced: an immediate and simultaneous extension of the spine, along with a lifting and expansion of the chest.

We will investigate which specific muscle groups need to activate and which must remain passive to create the conditions for this action to gain both stability and freedom at the hip joints.

Freedom in a pose cannot arise without structural stability. The action of compaction not only stabilizes the physical body, but also draws consciousness from the periphery toward the core. In this way, the physical practice of asana becomes integrated, refined, and meditative.

✨ Join us in person or online — mat space and screen space both welcome.

🧘 Beyond the Physical

B.K.S. Iyengar reminds us that yoga was never really about weight loss or a perfect pose — it's a spiritual practice first. Fitness is simply "a valuable side effect" of showing up on the mat.

Practice consistently, and something quietly shifts: the body loosens, strength builds, the mind steadies. Even your sleep and appetite find their rhythm — not because you chased those results, but because they followed naturally from the practice itself.

That's the real gift of yoga — not just a stronger body, but a steadier one, inside and out.

🕉️ Join us on the mat.

Wicked problems that resist immediate solutions can separate and divide us.

When I’m thinking about how to solve a problem, I go to my mat.

Just like it’s a balance between grounding yourself in the realities of the situation but also aiming to be uplifted so that you are open to possibilities.

In the messiness that arises when there are multiple perspectives and opinions, I find myself returning to this teaching from the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad.

“As there can be no water without the sea, no touch without the skin, no smell without the nose, no taste without the tongue, no form without the eye, no sound without the ear, no thought without the mind, no wisdom without the heart, no work without the hands, no walking without the feet, no scriptures without the word, so there can be nothing without the Self.”

“As a lump of salt thrown in water dissolves and cannot be taken out again, though whenever we taste the water it is salty, even so, beloved, the separate self dissolves in the sea of pure consciousness, infinite and immortal.”

We concluded our workshop with Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher on Sunday. I am still reflecting on the teachings and our time together, but feeling supreme gratitude to our sangha.

When I set out to open up an Iyengar Yoga studio in South Central Pennsylvania two years ago, I was the sole Iyengar Yoga teacher in our community. By the grace of the guru, I have now been joined by a fabulous cohort of teachers and aspiring teacher

This past weekend felt like a dream realized. When we practice together in community we are transformed together. The the divisions between us cease. I was reminded of this mantra from the Upanishads.

Om pūrṇam adaḥ pūrṇam idam
Pūrṇāt pūrṇam udacyate
Pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya
Pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate
Om shāntiḥ shāntiḥ shāntiḥ

That is full, this is full.
From the full, the full arises.
Taking the full from the full,
Fullness alone remains.
Peace, peace, peace.

🌸 SPRING AWAKENING THROUGH PRACTICE: From Feeling Stuck to Moving with Clarity and Energy 🌸

"Arise! Awaken! Seek out the best teachers, learn well, for the path is precise—revealed through discernment and sustained attention—so declare the Wise."
— Katha Upanishad

As we emerge from winter, it's natural to feel dull, stuck, or scattered. This ancient teaching reminds us that awakening comes through attentive, skillful practice—and spring offers the perfect energy for renewal.

Over three thoughtfully designed sessions, Holly will guide us through standing poses, sun salutations, core work, backbends, and restorative practices to reawaken the body, steady the mind, and restore continuity between movement, breath, and awareness.

WORKSHOP SCHEDULE:

📅 SATURDAY, APRIL 18
Session 1 | 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM "Waking the Body, Gathering the Mind"
• Standing poses and open twists to shake off heaviness and re-establish steady focus

Session 2 | 3:00 - 4:30 PM "Mobilizing Energy, Purifying Action"
• Forward extensions and introductory arm balances to build momentum through purposeful, well-supported movement

📅 SUNDAY, APRIL 19
Session 3 | 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM "Integrating Effort, Abiding in Clarity"
• Backward extensions (supported and independent) to integrate and sustain the energy cultivated throughout the weekend

ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS:
• Join us online (live stream) or in-studio
• Register for individual classes or the full workshop
• Equity pricing available

Open to students with some yoga experience.
