Have you ever wondered...

✦ “Do my elbows actually need to reach 90 degrees in Chaturanga?

✦ “Should I be shifting forward in Chaturanga?”

✦ “In Side Plank, should my hand be directly under my shoulder - or is that actually not the best position?”

✦ “What are my shoulder blades actually supposed to be doing in Wheel Pose?”

✦ “What tends to contribute to most shoulder-related injuries in Vinyasa yoga, and how can they be prevented?

If any of these sound familiar, this workshop might be for you:

Sustainable Shoulders
Sunday 5/17 2-4 pm


a 2-hour workshop where we’ll break down the actual mechanics behind the poses you do every single practice, cover common myths, and give you practical tools to keep your shoulders strong and healthy for the long haul.

No more guessing. Walk away with more clarity, confidence, and information = more agency in your practice.

If yoga is about making the unconscious conscious, the asana practice about illuminating patterns that tend to live in the dark, let’s talk about the shoulders in our beloved vinyasa practice.

While we’re pretty good at strengthening the fronts of the shoulders (chatturangas, planks, all that pushing motion), the backs of our shoulders are often along for the ride with the strength of a wet noodle.

If you’ve practiced with me this month, you’ve been working to cultivate more resiliency, stability, and strength in those off-kilter vinyasa-loving shoulders (hello - lat pulldowns, locust pose block lifts, no-wrap eagle arms, etc.).

When we know better, we do better. But first comes the sometimes uncomfortable work of seeing (and feeling) clearly - those tight spots, weak links, and dark corners of our unconscious patterns.

Last class of the month tonight - in person & online. Link in bio as always.

Last night, during savasana, loud and ongoing sirens cut through perfect, pin-drop-silence. My first instinct was that particular brand of spiritual annoyance of being simultaneously irritated and embarrassed about being irritated. Here I was, guiding students toward rest and the world had the audacity to be loud and urgent just outside our windows.

Then I remembered something my friend, MW told me years ago: every time she hears a siren, she says a prayer for someone’s well being (I know, v wholesome). It’s such a simple redirect, but it completely transforms the interruption from personal affront to collective care.

“Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu,” which essentially means “may all beings everywhere be happy and free.” For me, It’s less about the specific mantra and more about what happens when we actively choose to extend our circle of care beyond your immediate experience. Recent neuroscience research on meta meditation shows that when we genuinely wish others well, our brains light up in reward circuits typically associated with pleasure and motivation. This simple practice literally rewires our neural pathways toward empathy and away from self-centered reactivity.

This isn’t about toxic positivity or pretending chaos doesn’t exist. It’s about recognizing that our default mode of taking everything personally keeps us small and separate.

The practice isn’t to eliminate annoyance, or shame ourselves, but to notice it, and then choose something more expansive. May all beings be happy and free from suffering, when they’re loud, even when they interrupt, and especially when they serve to remind us that the world is much bigger than our individual pursuit of a perfect savasana on a certain Tuesday night.
