Meet Me on the Mat

10/13/2026

This week on the mat… 🦩🧘‍♀️

We’re going to do some heart openers and use blocks for a few things too. Nothing scary, I promise! 😂

Between sitting at computers, looking down at our phones, driving around and just everyday stress, we carry a lot of tension in our shoulders and backs.

So we’ll spend some time stretching things out, opening up through our chest and shoulders and working on our posture a little.

And something I find really interesting about heart openers is the emotional side of it. We all carry stuff around with us, sometimes without even realizing it.

So maybe this week we can stretch a little, breathe a little and let some of that $ #%! go. 😂❤️🦩

Me 5 years ago, long before I ever thought I would actually become a yoga instructor, just loving my own yoga practice. ❤️🧘‍♀️

Funny looking back at these memories and seeing where life takes you.

Never would have guessed I’d be the one teaching classes someday! 😂🦩🧘‍♀️🎶

Happy Baby. 😂🦩

Whoever named this yoga pose clearly had a sense of humor. 🤪

There we are, grown adults, lying on our backs, holding our feet and rocking around on the floor. 😂

But it feels SO good! A little love for the hips, lower back and inner thighs… and usually a few laughs along the way.

Yoga doesn’t have to be so serious. ❤️

Meet Me on the Mat! 🦩🧘‍♀️

Those of you who were in class today might have noticed I snuck in a little extra time in Child’s Pose. 😂🦩❤️

I love this pose, and not just because it feels good!

It’s a chance to give our backs, hips and shoulders a good stretch, release some tension and slow our breathing.

And one of the things I love about Child’s Pose is that we can come back to it anytime. Even in the middle of a flow. We don’t have to wait until the end of class to take a break.

I think sometimes we forget that taking a break is an option. Not just in yoga. ❤️

So if I sneak in a few extra breaths here and there, now you know why. 😂🦩🧘‍♀️

😂😂 Wendy came to yoga!! 🐺🧘‍♀️

I’m not saying Meet Me on the Mat is for EVERYONE… but apparently we’ve expanded to Woolfaboomuses. 🤪🦩

Thanks for joining us, Wendy! Now everybody keep an eye out for her around Bridgton… 👀

After a few days of helping us out at Town Hall, Wendy was ready to paws and unwind. 🐾

Tuesday night, she joined Meet Me on the Mat for a little yoga—and apparently even a Woolfaboomus needs to work on her downward dog. 😂 After class, Wendy was feeling refreshed, recharged, and ready to hit the town!

Now it’s your turn to find her!

If you spot Wendy somewhere around Bridgton, snap a photo with her and post it on social media using and be sure to tag Bridgton Recreation so we can follow along.

Where will Wendy turn up next? 👀🐺

A little thought from the mat… 🦩

We have a lot of fun at yoga… the music, the themes, forgetting what side we’re on 😂🤪 but there’s another side of yoga that I really love too.

And maybe it’s October… a month that seems to be all about change. The days get cooler, the nights get longer, everything around us starts to shift.

I’m a big believer in trusting the universe… while also really liking to know how things are going to turn out. 😂

And we don’t always get to know.

Sometimes you make the plan, take the next step and trust that you’ll figure out the rest as you go.

There’s a reason we plant our feet in Mountain. Try to find our balance in Tree. Slow down in Child’s Pose. Stay a little longer in Pigeon. And eventually just stop and let everything go in Savasana.

We’re practicing grounding ourselves, finding our balance when things shift, slowing down, staying when things get a little uncomfortable and eventually letting go. Things that come in pretty handy off the mat too. ❤️

Just trusting yourself enough to move anyway. ❤️🦩

I’m so grateful for the people I’m getting to meet on this little yoga journey of mine. ❤️🦩

The people who walk into class for the first time. The ones who keep coming back. The conversations before and after. The laughs in the middle. All of it.

And maybe one of my favorite reminders from the mat… sometimes we all just need Savasana. 😂❤️

A few minutes to be still, let your body relax, quiet some of the noise and just breathe.

It can help reduce stress, clear your mind and give you a little reset.

Turns out lying on the floor doing nothing is actually pretty good for us. 😂🧘‍♀️

Should be a fun one! 🖤🧘‍♀️🎶
