Inner Reflection: Yin Yoga & Qigong Workshop
In traditional Chinese medicine, autumn is the start of the Yin season and the harbinger of descending metal chi (energy). Join Kendall as they lead you through an in-depth exploration of the metal element through a blend of Yin asana, Qigong, and meditation practices. By combining gentle movement with moments of stillness, we'll align with the grounding nature of metal, releasing what no longer serves us and embracing the introspective energy of the fall.

CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY FOR EVENTS
Registration for all events, including trainings and immersion workshops, is non-refundable. However, if you cannot attend, you may transfer your spot to another person by contacting us via phone, email, or in person.
We understand that plans can change, but our no-refund policy helps us maintain the quality and sustainability of our offerings. Organizing events requires significant time, effort, and resources from both the studio and our teachers. In addition, many of our trainings & workshops have limited spacing — last-minute cancellations not only prevent others from attending, but also affect the viability of the event for our dedicated instructors. As a small, local business, your understanding and cooperation not only helps us support our teachers, but also allows us to continue providing enriching experiences for our community!
