Weird Flex Yoga

Unconventional Approaches to Yoga

Pop-Up Yoga Classes Throughout the Mid-Ohio Valley

Helping Make Self-Care Fun and Accessible

Zero Judgement Zone

There are lots of ways to stretch and breathe in a yoga practice. At Weird Flex, we're just celebrating some of the less common or less traditional ways. Here, you'll find classes like:

-Adaptive Yoga (adapting the poses, breath and movement to all bodies and abilities)
-Beginner-Focused Practice (slow-paced, full of explanations, modifications, open dialogue and absolutely zero judgement)
-Groun

ding and Empowerment Yoga (with a focus on calming the nerves and resetting stress responses)
-Alpaca and Metal (music) goat yoga
-Metal Yoga (lighthearted yoga with a metal theme and music)
-Yo-Goth (yoga with a goth theme and music)
-Restorative True Crime Podcast Yoga
-Spooky themed classes (all year long)

-All the themed classes, honestly
..and more! We hope you'll find a home here with us! All classes can be signed up for online, through the link in an event info. If you have questions about ANY of the classes, please ask, any time! We're here to help! No refunds are offered on classes, but your spot can be transferred to a friend, for the same class.

We talk a lot about loving ourselves in our classes-loving through discomfort, through expectations of ourselves and others, and not needing to match our yoga practice or our ideas with our neighbor(s).

We work concepts of forgiveness and grace into our thoughts, breath and movement when we practice together…but every single student in these photos deserves extra props for this weekend, for all of the grace they offered back to me and our extra weird events that unfolded. 😅

Changed locations, missing emails, getting locked out, being late…nothing stopped these folks from getting to class, speaking from their hearts, listening to their bodies, and being there for themselves and each other.

You’re literally all the MVPs. Every single one of you.

Friday’s Metal Slow-ga ended up being dreamy and exactly what we needed to let it all go. Sunday’s Yoga & Incense Making was so fun (it looks like we made lil poops, but I swear they smell so good and magical 🤣). It ended up being a wonderful weekend, we dodged the rain and had a great time with each other.

Welcome to the new folks and hugs and high fives to the resident weirdos. Can’t wait to see y’all again!

This coming Sunday, join us for DONATION-BASED CEMETERY YOGA for International Yoga Day. Oak Grove Cemetery at noon (Marietta). Sign up in advance to get our official class location, or come to the place we always do Cemetery Yoga if you’ve done it with us, before.

Bring a friend, and pay what you can 🖤

Can’t help but reflect tonight, on getting to be a part of a yoga family that’s so cool, we all screamed at each other for an hour, and did Happy Nap Time to my spirit song (🎶 Move Bitch, by Luda). I feel like I just unpacked 3 months of therapy in one day. Amazing.

Up next, we’re stretching niiiceee and slowwww to a sweet metal playlist, this coming Friday at 6pm. Hope to see ya there! A million thank yous to Cindy for sharing her space with us, and to Miranda for the awesome class photos. We’re all the best part of the team. 🖤

Feeling the urge to scream with your entire lungs at *gestures vaguely*? YOU’RE IN LUCK!

Join Weird Flex tomorrow (Sunday), as we take a walk into the woods together, on private property, stretch by a stream and waterfall, and collectively scream our stress away.

Sign up here, to get the exact location and save your spot: app.ubindi.com/Michelle.Waters

ALSO COMING UP THIS MONTH:

Next Friday (6/12) brings a slowww stretch to Metal (music)

A week from Sunday (6/14), let’s welcome the fire of summer as we stretch in the sun, and learn to make our own incense in the shade.

We’ll also have a donation-based Cemetery Yoga class on Sunday, 6/21, for International Yoga Day!

PLEASE NOTE DATE CHANGE:

Our second round of Tai Chi with yoga has been moved to Friday, 6/26, due to a scheduling conflict with the training center.

Restorative (slow and restful) Poe-Ga is back on Friday, 6/25!

Did I mention Yoga with Tai Chi has been moved to Friday, 6/26? Please note this change. 😊

And lastly, to round out June, learn about ways to help hypermobility in yoga classes (and try some techniques as a class) on Monday, 6/29.

So many fun ways to take care of yourself, yet to come, this month. With July and August calendars coming your way, soon, too! Hope to stretch with y’all again, soon!

Thank you Jewels Whitley and BOPARC for trusting me and Weird Flex Yoga, and sharing your own family with me for a special FREE Yo-Goth class on the river, Wednesday night. 🖤 💀 🖤

We had a fantastic turnout in the covered shelter (perfect for this gorgeous weather we’ve been having), and filled the park with zombie groans while we “cleared the cobwebs”, stretched and laughed together, to a sweet goth playlist.

Jewels, I value our friendship so much, and can’t wait to see you and your crew, again! 🖤 🧟‍♀️ 🖤

This week has been absolutely epic.

We had our first lesson in Tai Chi Sword on Friday, with a fantastic turnout, and enjoyed a restorative Silent Book Club class on Monday.

The sword flow on Friday felt so empowering, and/but will probably take me about 10 more lessons for it to start building muscle memory. It was so fun and looked so cool, I’m willing to commit to the goal, though. So thankful to Jason and the crew at Shao-Lin Martial Arts Training Center for their patience and instruction.

At the end of class, we definitely agreed we need to have this class, again. Be on the lookout for a potential July date.

I love getting to practice with our Weird l’il Family, and experience the Weird side of self-care.

Up next for our class list, tomorrow’s “Ice Dying” has been postponed so we can order merch in advance…but Screaming in the Woods Yoga is 100% on for the following Sunday, June 7th.

Calendar updates for June will also be posted soon, as well as July and August classes. Hope to see you then!

Did the weather match our vibes on Sunday? Absolutely.

Did the storms usher us into our favorite speakeasy hideaway to have an absolutely GORGEOUS party despite the rains? You better believe it.

I’m still in awe.

It was perfect.

Like, more than I ever expected.

We looked like a freakin renaissance painting, had such a perfect, wonderful spread of food, and danced and laughed and talked well past the original hours where we would have been booted from the cemetery, since they close at dusk.

The stunning tintype photos (which I can’t wait to share, soon!): Drew Tanner

The incredibly accurate and empowering tea leaf readings (EVERYONE loved their readings): Guy Lockhart

The amazing SPACE (where we do Poe-ga and some Yo-Goth classes, and where our friend Greta does beautiful art classes): Marietta Makery THANK YOU FOR STEPPING UP AND COMPLETELY SAVING OUR PARTY!

The jaw-dropping costumes, Devan, Candice and I got to borrow: Hidden Marietta Tour Co. and The Anchorage and Devan for getting the ball rolling on this! PLEASE support this awesome place and go to their shop on Saturdays, or take a tour! It’s such an amazing building and group of people.

Thank you to Candice for showing up early and helping set up. Thank you to Lauren, Amber, Sarah, Eric, Dale, Candice, Devan, Rachel, Lindsay, Kestrel, and EVERYONE for bringing immaculate vibes, food, great conversation, fantastic photos, and wonderful friendship.

Amazing night. Everything and more.

We had the BEST TIME getting an intro to Tai Chi with Jason! Next week, he’s teaching us how to incorporate Tai Chi Sword flows into our practice (on Friday, 5/29).

Yes, you can an adjustable sword for class, and you get to keep it, forever!

We also had a really fun True Crime Yin class, and it was so nice to get back into our True Crime flow, again.

Up next we have a Victorian Picnic on Sunday (5/24), with real tintype photography and Victorian tea leaf readings available.

Silent (Restorative) Book Club is returning to First Chapter Bookstore on Monday (5/25), too.

So many great reasons to get together with the Weird Flex Family and be Weird, together.

Can’t wait to see y’all again, soon!
