yogas citta vritti nirodhah
In the west, yoga *posture* practice abounds. It’s wonderful that so many people are benefiting from these physical practices! However, due to the way our culture is oriented, the subtler, richer aspects of this ancient tradition are often overlooked. This is where we at Exhale come in. We’re not here to offer gimmicks or chase the latest trends. Instead, we bring you back to the foundational practices passed down by Patanjali and other sages thousands of years ago.
Our approach is rooted in these principles and in the goal of inclusivity. As Yoga Sutra 1.2 teaches us, “Yoga is the calming of the fluctuations of the mind.” This is what we work towards. Every aspect of our practice—whether conscious breathwork, posture, or meditation—is designed to support this purpose. We invite you to join us for small group yoga or schedule a private session, and experience the difference of a practice that nourishes you on every level.
If you're just starting out, the following practice can be a wonderful introduction to yoga: 50 minute introductory practice

Weekly Small Group Classes
*Schedule via the Mindbody app or here*
Price for small group yoga is $23 per class, or purchase a pack of 10 for $190 (use within 12 months). New students may purchase a pack of 3 classes for $46.
All of our small group classes are designed to be inclusive to all bodies and abilities. We work to calm the mind (Yoga Sutra 1.2), cultivate comfort and stability in the body (YS 2.46), and incorporate the 8 limbs in to a well rounded practice. Nervous system nourishment, conscious breathwork, postures, guided relaxation and meditation are all components.
Join us for: All Levels (balance of strength, flexibility and unwinding, customized to the students present that day) and Gentle Yoga (emphasis on soft unwinding within the body, without the focus on strength).

Yin Yoga & Reiki with Sara Burns, CYT
In this practice, you will be supported by the mat and a variety of props as you sink and breathe into gentle, held asanas for 2-10 minutes each. This gives the body time to truly surrender into each pose, unwinding tension patterns in the fascia and guiding the mind into quiet. In Yin yoga, the focus is on passive sinking, allowing the tissues to lengthen slowly. Some poses can be mildly intense, often giving way to profound release after several minutes. Truly the myofascial release of yoga.
Reiki (healing energy work) will also be offered by Sara during select longer-held postures such as savasana. This restorative practice is designed to nurture you on every level. After the 75 minute practice, you are welcome to stay to ask questions, sip herbal tea, browse our lending library, or simply digest your experience with deep breaths on our beautiful deck.
Schedule:
2nd Wednesday of each month 6:00-7:15 (upcoming dates January 8th, February 12th)
1 Sunday a month 11:00-12:15 (upcoming date: January 26)
Sound Bath and Gentle Yoga with Mindie Hung
Give yourself permission to relax, unwind and settle into deep rest in this restorative experience. We will begin with 20-30 minutes of conscious breath and gentle movement designed to prepare your body to lay in comfortable stillness, softly stretching into places of held tension. We will then surrender into the support of cushions and blankets for a guided relaxation as we prepare to receive the nourishment of sound healing.
Mindie Hung, a certified vibrational sound therapy practitioner, will bathe us in the sounds and vibrations of therapeutic bowls. These healing tones can help to reduce stress/stress hormones and reduce pain by sending you into the "rest and digest" parasympathetic nervous system response. With consent, bowls may be placed on students' bodies for a portion of the sound bath, furthering deep nourishment.
