The Cat Pose

Hey Cat Posers! —quick class note for this week.
We’re in week four of our peak-pose series working toward UHP—yes, the pose with the long name I refuse to say out loud.

This week is revolved half moon. It’s a full-body situation: balance, twist, open chest, strong legs.
You will wobble. You will fall out. You will get back in. We’ll laugh.

If you want a fun challenge with a purpose, come practice with me.

If you’ve been curious about Ashtanga, my beginners class every Monday at 4:30 at Yoga Yolo in Woodland is the perfect place to start.
Today I’m talking about tapas—that steady discipline that helps you show up for yourself even when life is throwing elbows.

And here’s the fun twist:
Ashtanga was one of the biggest tools I used to help prevent my migraines.
The breath work, the consistency, the alignment, the nervous system training… it changed everything.

That’s why I’m teaching these same techniques at my Yoga for Migraines Retreat in February in Carmel.
If you’ve been thinking about breaking the migraine cycle and learning practices you can actually use in real life, this retreat was literally built for that.

You can find my full teaching schedule and book the retreat at TheCatPose.Studio.
And if you’re an early bird, grab your spot 45 days before the retreat to lock in the discounted rate.

See you on the mat—and maybe in Carmel. 💛

Sliding into Monday like… slooow and steady 🔥
Join me every Monday at noon at Yoga Six Elk Grove for a warm + mindful Slow Flow (85°—just enough heat to feel delicious, not delirious).

This week’s theme: Happy Birthday to my Sagittarius Cat Posers!
Since Sag rules the thighs, we’re celebrating with allll the juicy hip-openers and working toward our splits. Yes, your legs may have opinions. No, we’re not rushing a single thing.

Move slow, breathe deep, take your time getting into each pose—your body will thank you later.
