Xan’s Yoga journey started with looking for relief from an injury. This led to certifications in Vinyasa, Restorative, Y12SR, and Kundalini Yoga. She loves the challenge in the process and tries to make those journeys both investigative and playful. Classes travel through postures set with the intention to explore and expand one's inner landscape. Use each breath with purpose to calm and support the body, while building strength and flexibility that trains the nervous system to handle challenges and break through roadblocks. There are moments of introspection, finding an edge, and even humor. Students usually leave class feeling softer after a guided meditation at the end. Classes are usually intermediate intensity, and designed for all levels of practice.

These classes will allow you to let go and embrace or shift energy to engage with your most authentic self. Focusing on grounded flow poses, conscious somatic movement, and breath work will create more mental space to help you feel energized and release tension. We offer Prenatal Kundalini and Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga Flow to offer support as you grow through the changes that pregnancy, birth, and children bring to your body.
An invitation to regulate the nervous system and connect more internally with ourselves so we can soften into the body while giving ourselves more space and grace to set clear and beautiful intentions for a more earthed state of being.
