We offer Yoga ShapeShifting and Original Hot Yoga/Bikram Yoga Classes every day for you.

It is an Amazing and Life Changing Program. 

A little about these classes and our Yoga School:

Diving into practice in 2012, It was clear Bikram Yoga saves lives! It is the yoga… you don’t need anything else… you don’t have to “be good at it or add quality to it” (as my teacher, Mary, would say)

just keep practicing and everything else happens for you. 

Teacher Training with Bikram in 2013 was the first best decision of my life. With this yoga practice and teacher training… we have received the greatest gift in the world: overall health & full of vitality. Even more wonderful: the privilege of being able to witness each of you do the same thing every day… we are so happy and honored to offer this amazing  yoga to everyBODY!! 

Yoga Shapeshifting was later the best decision of my life!! It saved my life again.

The original life-changing yoga series created by Mary Jarvis, my teacher and mentor since… always!! One of Bikram’s most trusted students/teachers since early 1980s. When Mary got into a debilitating car accident, she knew she could heal her spine and avoid spine surgery. Mary knew what yoga could do for people! She wanted to get her beautiful Bikram Yoga practice back…she had to find a way—so she did! This practice changes the way you “Look-Feel-Be-Move.” It improves your Bikram/Hot yoga, and any other activity you enjoy. 

Both of these hatha yoga classes, when practiced in repetition, at any level of ability, with willingness, love, joy and patience… miracles happen! They always do. They’re universal constants— meaning, ANY BODY, any age, any body condition, any mental condition, emotional condition, spiritual condition, mood, personality, any level of ability, flexibility, strength, stamina can come in & receive 100% of the benefit. 

When you do it, you can’t help but change!! You will shift & have so much FUN… you feel, think and move, BETTER!! 

Miracles happen here daily.
We are so excited to meet you.
