-
This class emphasizes strengthening the muscles that support and move your spine. The class is yoga based but incorporates some Pilates inspired movement, balancing, and other fun stuff.
Yin Yoga
-
After a long day filled with physical and mental activity, Yin offers a way to unwind, release tension, and prepare the body and mind for rest. It is a perfect compliment to your more “yang” movement based classes. This class consists of a series of longer-held, slow-moving, floor poses and deep stretches intended to increase joint mobility and hydrate fascial tissue, focusing mainly on the lower part of the body – the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, and lower spine. The modifiable, static postures are especially beneficial for muscle recovery. Yin Yoga is highly meditative and introspective, offering plenty of time and space for you to draw your awareness inside. Yin cultivates stillness, space to observe and witness, and ways soothe your physical body. This practice is accessible for all bodies and is the perfect ending to your day.
Gentle Yogalates
-
A gentle, slower-paced Yoga and Pilates fusion class including traditional Yoga Flow and Pilates inspired mat exercises that strengthen and tone the entire body (especially the core). The class will end with a Savasana.
Restorative Yoga
-
Gentle Yoga poses taught in a Restorative style with props to encourage comfort and relaxation. Singing bowls and other sensory experiences will enhance healing energy. This class will help ease tension in the body and mind and you'll leave feeling rejuvenated and restored.
Rishi’s Community Yoga follows Denver County COVID restrictions. Class sizes are limited and advance registration is required to attend. Mats and props are available at no charge. For the health of our community, please bring your own if you have them.
Class packages can be purchased at the studio.

Yoga Nidra with Toni Hansen
Monthly on the Fourth Sunday from 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Join us for the practice of Yoga Nidra led by Toni Hansen. Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation where we rest between states of wakefulness and sleep. It is a powerful, nourishing practice that can restore healthy sleep, relieve stress and anxiety while also boosting energy and creativity. Yoga Nidra is a deeply relaxing and healing practice that brings equilibrium and harmony - physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Unlike traditional seated meditation which can be a physical strain, Yoga Nidra is experienced in a posture where the body is completely supported, such as savasana. This relaxed posture allows the body and mind to fully rest and rejuvenate while being guided in meditation.
We will begin with gentle yoga movements, followed by Yoga Nidra. You are encouraged to bring your own props such as blankets, a yoga mat, and a small pillow. The studio also has some props to use.
Friday Night Sound Bath with Kinzie Conley
Fridays from 6:00 - 7:00 pm
This class will be a crystal bowl bath that includes 7 different bowls. Each of the bowls resonates with the frequency of your chakras (energy bundles in the body), meant to align you from your root chakra all the way to your crown.
Crystal bowls contain silica, an element also found in the body. Due to the shared element, sound waves from the bowls align with the body better than Tibetan bowls which are composed of 7 different metals.
Please note sound healing is going to reharmonize your cells. Some people may have some adverse effects to this change in their body, so it is important to drink lots of water before the bath and eat a clean, nourishing meal.
Yin Yoga and Live Ambient Music with Melissa Gray
Saturday, April 26th from 4:00 – 5:30 pm
Join us for a very special Yin Yoga & Live Music class with Melissa Gray, our resident Yin Yoga specialist, and Jordan Cromwell, talented musician. Let the soothing sounds of music carry you away to a transformative experience on your mat.
Suitable for almost all levels of students, Yin Yoga is for any student looking for a simple, yet deeply meditative practice (i.e. Yin) to compliment the more traditional, faster paced exercise routines (i.e. Yang) styles of yoga that emphasize internal heat, and the lengthening and contracting of our muscles.
Yin Yoga generally targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis, and lower spine.
Prepayment Required. Space is limited!
Beyond Breath with Mitzi Kincade
April 25, May 9, and May 23 from 6:00 – 7:30 PM

Concerned about others hearing you? All classes will be using Silent Sound System headphones to offer you a more personal experience.
Benefits of Psychedelic Breathwork:
Reduction in physical and emotional stress

Meditation: Demystified with Megann and Mira Mae
Sunday, May 18 from 2:00 – 4:00 pm
Join Megann and Mira for a grounding and empowering meditation workshop designed to help you create a sustainable at-home practice.
Whether you are brand new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice, this workshop will give you the tools, understanding, and confidence to begin…or begin again. Through a thoughtful blend of conversation, gentle movement, breathwork, and meditation, you’ll explore what it means to create a daily practice that feels both nourishing and doable.
In this workshop, you will:
Learn the basics of meditation and why it’s beneficial
Explore the ancient roots and modern science behind the practice
Experience a variety of guided meditations, including So-Hum and candle gazing (tratak)
Practice breath techniques (pranayama) and gentle movement (asana) to support your focus
Understand the stages of meditation
Normalize common challenges and discover tools to move through them with compassion
Develop a personalized meditation plan you can bring into your daily life
We’ll also share how to choose a meditation technique that resonates with you, how to start small and build consistency, and why the simple act of showing up - even for just a few minutes - can transform your relationship with yourself and the world around you.
You’ll leave with a sense of clarity, a written plan, and a handout describing the techniques we’ve practiced (plus a few extra to explore on your own).
No prior meditation experience is required. Just bring an open mind, a journal, and anything that helps you feel comfortable and at ease.
