This immersive workshop weaves together the subtle wisdom of marma therapy, the transformative power of pranayama, and the heart-opening grace of bhakti-infused movement. Designed as a holistic journey inward, the experience invites participants to reconnect with their inner vitality, balance the nervous system, and cultivate a deep sense of devotion and presence.

The session begins with guided pranayama led by Mitesh Raichada, who will skillfully introduce breath practices to regulate energy (prana), calm the mind, and create a grounded, receptive state. Through intentional breathing techniques, participants will awaken subtle awareness and prepare the body for deeper energetic work.

Sneha Raichada will then guide an exploration of marma points—vital energy centers in the body rooted in Ayurvedic tradition. With gentle touch and mindful attention, participants will learn how to stimulate and balance these points to support physical, emotional, and energetic harmony.

Building on this awakened state, Seán Johnson will lead a gentle bhakti vinyasa sequence designed to open the heart and invite a sense of devotion and connection. Infused with music, mantra, and fluid movement, this creative practice encourages participants to move from the inside out with love and intention.

Together, these three modalities create a deeply nourishing and integrative experience—one that harmonizes breath, body, and spirit, and leaves participants feeling centered, uplifted, and connected to the heart.

Awaken your inner power in this transformative class designed to ignite change from the inside out. Through dynamic yoga sequences, empowering reflection, and guided exploration of limiting beliefs, you’ll break free from the stories and patterns that hold you back. Revolution Within is about stepping into your strength, reclaiming your voice, and embracing the fullness of who you are. This class is both a physical and emotional journey that will leave you feeling empowered, energized, and ready to embody your truest self.

Serpentine movements help us move in whole body patterns so that every section of the body awakens in relation to the central axis. In this class, we will follow a consistent natural flow of postures working with wave patterns of movement, breath, and mind to facilitate a feeling of openness, elongation, and strength in the entire spine as a means of awakening internal energy and organic rhythms of intelligence that keep movements integrated, free, and joyful.

Maitrī: Loving Kindness Meditation is a powerful way to increase the frequency of positive emotions and feelings of connection, improve immune function, increase gray matter in key areas of the brain, and increase gamma waves for learning, memory, attention, and complex cognitive processing. There are many ways that one can learn to practice and become competent at this technique: somatic, cognitive, verbal, non-verbal, with or without visualization, etc. In this session, I will guide you through three rounds of gentle postures to prepare for sitting or lying down in stillness for 15 minutes per round.

This class is a deep dive into the practice of spiritual alignment, inviting you to connect with your inner wisdom and the divine source that flows through all life. Through mindful movement, meditation, and breathwork, you’ll learn to quiet the noise of the mind and cultivate a sense of trust, intuition, and flow. Whether you’re seeking clarity, balance, or spiritual renewal, this class provides the tools to tap into your higher self and live with greater authenticity, presence, and alignment with your soul’s purpose.
