Celebrate 9 Years with us!

You know we party every January! This year, we’re celebrating #9. (Was 2015 really that long ago?!) And we’re doing it like we always do with low cost drop-ins for all our classes, all week long, a big yoga giveaway and some pretty sweet events 🎉 The list is long, but please read-on…

Monday (1/22) @ 5:30 pm
9K for 9 Years with Zach and Ace

Celebrate 9 years of Firelight Yoga by running (or walking) a 9K together! Ace and Zach will be your guides. There will be two planned routes offered (4.5K and 9K) taking you through the beautiful Overlook and Arbor Lodge neighborhoods. All levels of runners/walkers are welcome! We will begin and end at Double Mountain a few blocks from the studio (1700 N Killingsworth St). Stay and have a drink and a bite to eat at Double Mountain after to replenish and commemorate after the 9K FOR 9 YEARS!” Double Mountain is offering a generous 25% discount to everyone hanging out in their taproom with us during the event! If you are not able to make the run/walk, feel free to join us at Double Mountain anytime between 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm for a social gathering!

IMPORTANT: Please be aware that it will be dark outside at this time. As such, it is recommended that participants bring their own safety lights, headlamps, reflective gear, or other items to promote visibility. Ace and Zach will kick things off with a group stretch, an overview of the routes, and hopefully a few laughs before departing. And please don’t forget your water!

JOIN US IN THE RUN/WALK AND BE ENTERED INTO A DRAWING FOR SOME NEW SHOES, SPONSORED BY ON RUNNING!

Tuesday (1/23) @ 6:00 pm and @ 8:00 pm
Yoga Nidra with Newsha

Two opportunities to get into a Yoga Nidra class and experience this transformative practice!

Yoga Nidra, or Yogic Sleep, is a powerful meditation method (derived from the tantras) of practicing deep mental, physical, and emotional rest. 

Led by Newsha Rostampour, this class will offer guidance into complete therapeutic relaxation. Beginning with breathwork and light movement, Newsha will then guide you through a multi-dimensional meditation, inviting the senses to draw completely inward, while diving into the depths of your own healing potential. We make space for inner peace, and calm, so that our bodies can heal, and grow.  

There will be yoga props available, but please bring your yoga mat if you have one (or you can rent one from the studio,) and feel free to bring anything additional to help you be very comfortable, i.e. eye cover, socks, etc. 

(10 day booking window for members. 3 day booking window for non-members.)

Candlelight Sound Bath and Meditation

Join Nikki Caballero for a gentle energetically balancing and relaxing evening sound bath. During this 75-minute gathering will begin with gentle movement, breath work, and a special release ritual meditation followed by an immersive sound journey experience. 

Sound vibrations offer deep healing by releasing stuck emotional energy as well as bringing balance to the chakras and nervous system. Benefits include: improved mental clarity, focus and memory; improves quality of sleep, regulates the nervous system, and reduces anxiety and depression. 

Sound Baths are a form of meditation. The quartz crystal bowls and other sound instruments stimulate alpha and theta brainwaves associated with clear and peaceful states of mind. 

What to wear: any comfortable clothing suited for lying down and receiving. 

What to bring: Water, yoga mat and anything else you need to make yourself comfortable i.e. blanket, pillow, eye mask, etc. You are also invited to bring a journal and pen/pencil to make note of any symbolic imagery or visions that may come through during your journey.

(10 day booking window for members. 3 day booking window for non-members.)

We hope you can join us for one or more events! Remember- Members have priority booking, but any additional spots still open 3 days prior to each event, will open up for non-members.

Whether you are a long-time member, or a recent addition to our FLY Community, we THANK YOU for showing up, sharing your energy and allowing us to guide you through an hour of your day ❤️❤️❤️
