Yoga That Fits Your Lifestyle

Absolutely! Yoga is for everyone, and you don’t need any experience to begin. My classes are designed to be accessible, offering options for all levels. Whether it’s your first time or you’ve been practicing for years, you’ll be guided with care and encouraged to move at your own pace.

Yoga is so much more than just postures on a mat. It’s a practice that unites movement, breath, and awareness to bring balance to the body, mind, and spirit. Rooted in ancient wisdom, yoga offers tools for strength, flexibility, focus, and deep relaxation—both on and off the mat.

Yoga has evolved over thousands of years, and different traditions emphasize different aspects of the practice. Some styles are dynamic and flowing, while others are slower and more restorative. The variety allows you to find what resonates best with your body, energy, and goals.

My teaching blends elements of Vinyasa, Sivananda, Ashtanga, Yin, Restorative, and Hatha yoga, always infused with the wisdom of Ayurveda. Each class is thoughtfully themed—often inspired by yoga philosophy or seasonal energy—and built around a ‘peak pose’ or focus area. I offer modifications for all levels, incorporating breathwork, meditation, and relaxation so you leave feeling balanced, strong, and refreshed.

You can expect a welcoming, well-rounded class that meets you where you are. We’ll begin with grounding breathwork and gentle movements to warm up the body before moving into a sequence of postures tailored to the class theme. Each session ends with time for deep rest and relaxation. Whether online or in person, my goal is for you to leave feeling nourished and renewed.

• In-person classes: Pre-registration is not required for my community classes, which are drop-in by donation. However, other in-person offerings may require pre-booking, so be sure to check the class details.
• Online classes: Pre-registration is required for live-streamed classes. Once you sign up, you’ll receive a link to join the session.

For in-person classes, bring a yoga mat and any props you like to use (such as a block, strap or blanket). I always have a few additional props on hand (blocks, small foams, and straps), but my supplies are limited. For online classes, I encourage you to set yourself up a quiet space where you can move freely with a bit of space around you. You may find it beneficial to use earbuds or headphones although they are not necessary.

You are welcome to arrive 15-20 minutes prior to class to get yourself settled and ready to practice. This is a great time to connect with me and ask questions about your practice or to check in with a fellow practitioner. If you're attending an online session, logging in a few minutes early ensures you’re ready when class begins.

For the in-person classes at Hill Chapel, I accept cash donations ($10-$20 suggested) upon arrival. Alternatively, an e-transfer to mmhicks@hotmail.com is accepted. For all other classes, workshops, retreats and memberships, payment options will be provided during registration.

If you’re unable to attend a class, I appreciate as much notice as possible. For online bookings and other offerings, please check the cancellation policy when registering.
