Love Shine Play Festival 2026

Let go of everything you think yoga is and experience a movement class that’s challenging yet fun, fluid yet deeply educational.

Based on Eoin Finn’s groundbreaking new book Yoga Optimized, this Blissology session blends strong, feel-good movement with science-backed techniques to help you feel looser, stronger, and more alive not just today, but for decades to come.

Our motto is “yoga is a feeling, not a shape,” so expect to sweat, smile, and learn powerful tools that improve your body intelligence and expand your “movement span,” the number of years you can move with power, grace, and zero pain.

Come ready to flow, let go of emotional baggage, and experience yoga that heals, transforms, and makes you feel incredible from the inside out.

Inspired by Buddhist mindfulness and nervous system regulation techniques, this session offers a deep reset for body and mind. Using Yin Yoga, breathwork, and meditation, we’ll cultivate the art of pausing—learning to move through life with more presence, creativity, and joy. Perfect for those craving stillness and a reset from life’s constant movement.

We live in a world that keeps us braced. The butt tightens, the hips grip, the shoulders creep toward the ears — and after a while, we stop noticing. The body simply becomes the place where the weight of uncertain times takes up permanent residence.
This workshop offers a systematic, deeply satisfying path back to greater ease. Drawing on somatic awareness, myofascial release, and nervous system science, we'll work through the body's most common stress-holding sites using tools that are accessible, effective, and immediately repeatable at home.

Together we will explore:

Therapeutic shaking and tremoring — one of the body's oldest and most underutilized self-regulation tools, used to discharge held bracing and reset the nervous system at its roots

Soft foam rolling for the hip flexors and glutes — the body's emotional core, chronically contracted in anxiety and stress, and profoundly responsive to patient, intentional release

Breathing practices for self-regulation — targeted breathwork that speaks directly to the autonomic nervous system, shifting us out of fight-or-flight and into a felt sense of safety

We'll close with a grounding yoga sequence to integrate everything the body has just released, helping you arrive back in yourself as a place you actually want to be.

Leave feeling strong, clear, and fully in your body.

Fire Power Flow is about building heat with intention and letting that energy move through you.

You’ll move through a dynamic sequence that blends alignment, strength, and fluid transitions. It’s not just about getting through poses. It’s about understanding them, feeling where you’re working, and then letting that structure turn into flow.

We’ll focus on technique. How you place your hands. How you stack your joints. Where your energy leaks and how to bring it back online. Then we layer in rhythm and breath so the practice starts to carry you instead of the other way around.

Music is upbeat and driving. Expect to sweat. Expect to drop in. There’s a moment where it clicks, and everything starts to feel connected.

You’ll leave grounded, energized, and a little more tapped into your own power.
