Fat Sweaty Yoga
Because we love yoga, it’s cool to be fat, and it’s okay to sweat.
Fat, Sweaty Yoga is a place where you can show up as you are, be challenged, and take breaks as often as you want, no shame required. You are not expected to move through the sequences seamlessly or perfectly. We are here to step out of our physical comfort zone so we can get stronger, while being held in a loving, judgment-free zone.
What and When?
We’ll meet three days a week for three weeks. That’s it. We’ll keep it short, sweet, and potent.
Monday Aug. 14 - Saturday, Sept. 2
Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-5pm CT
Saturdays from 11am-12pm CT
Practicing three days a week for three weeks is just about enough time for you to see some progress, feel some benefits, and get back into the habit of moving.
Class breakdown:
You also get FREE (and optional) access to four of the classes I offer in my online membership, The Sanctuary. Yes, four!
For the duration of the three weeks, you’re welcome to:
A Tuesday night class that alternates between Yoga Nidra and Restorative Yoga: both of these are classes that focus on deep relaxation. (7:30-8:30pm CT)
A Thursday night class that alternates between chair yoga and gentle yoga (7:30-8:30pm CT)
A Yoga philosophy class on Sunday, August 13th from 12-1:30pm CT
A Body Positive Book Club on Sunday, August 27th from 12-1:30pm CT (we’re discussing More Than A Body: Your Body Is an Instrument, Not an Ornament by Lindsay and Lexie Kite)

FAQ
Q: Can you give me a sense of what kind of things we’ll be doing?
A: We’ll typically start with some sun salutations and other standing warm-ups, and then do a good amount of seated/reclining strength-building and stretching exercises. The style of yoga is closest to Hatha. Here are some movements you can expect:
Getting up and down from the floor repeatedly (you don’t have to be able to do it quickly)
Assuming hands and knees position (padding under the knees can be a great support)
Lying on the floor, face down
Lying on the floor, face up
Sitting positions
Standing positions
