Join Sarah for an immersive practice as we honor the call of the Winter Solstice. As the sun sets on the longest night of the year, we will begin with Sarah's signature Hot Mala Practice to ignite the fire within. This will be followed by a guided meditation that includes a cold towel treatment for the head, feet, and hands. The session will conclude with a candle lighting ceremony, allowing us to leave in quiet Vipassana—an inward gaze.
If possible, students are encouraged to maintain their Vipassana throughout the evening in peaceful solitude.
The Hot Mala practice is for all levels, however, it may be overwhelming for students who are brand-new to yoga or working with injuries/chronic pain. Please reach out if you're unsure if this practice is right for you!
Hot Yoga is not recommended during pregnancy.
Bring a towel. Please come hydrated!

Students must submit an application accompanied by a non-refundable $50 registration fee. The registration fee will be applied to your tuition. The deposit will be refunded if the application is not accepted.
