The Mission
To guide people home to their own hearts.
… trusting that cultivating this inner relationship fosters uplifted connections in our homes and communities.
The teachings
Yoga as skillful action.
Meghan’s teachings are guided by two descriptions of yoga: “Yoga is skillful action.” and “Yoga is an energy management system.” Her offerings are designed to help you reclaim your energy and skillfully navigate your life.
Process-oriented
Here’s your invitation to approach practice not from a list of shoulds or a quick fix mentality but with respect for its potency to change your reality in the short and long term. From ease of movement, to a discerning mind, to joy of being, you’ll attain new abilities while remembering the peace and power you already carry within you.
Holistic (Yoga with all the “yoga stuff”)
While expanded capacity and appreciation for the wealth of the body are outcomes, these are not fitness-focused offerings. Meghan’s classes incorporate the 8-limbed path of yoga and tantric worldview to invite you into a joyful embrace of life and fuller appreciation of your power to shape your inner and outer worlds. We’ll move through sweat and stretch into a deeper experience of freedom and fulfillment.
Personalized
No pressure to shrink, keep up, perform or push through. This approach to sustainable yoga for the rest of your life prioritizes moving with awareness-empowering you with tools and knowledge to adapt the practice to meet your needs, explore your edges, and harmonize your energy.
