Who We Are

Here at Wayfinder, our primary mission is to share the full breadth & scope of Yoga - and its inherent promise of personal & collective transformation - to as many people, from as many different & diverse walks of life, as possible, in a manner that is intentionally accessible, inclusive, & trauma-conscious.

We are here to cultivate an inclusive & intentional community of present, mindful, open-hearted human beings inspired to live their Yoga off the mat, and we are committed to sharing the power & possibility of Yoga in a way that educates, inspires, and invites a more expansive view of what Yoga is & can be - both personally & globally, on the mat & off.

Our Core Values

Wayfinder Yoga is founded upon the belief that, as an inherently liberatory spiritual practice, Yoga is a powerful vehicle of personal & collective transformation that is meant to be inclusive & accessible to everyONE & everyBODY. Here at Wayfinder Yoga, we are committed to honoring Yoga’s historical & cultural South Asian roots, while ensuring that our offerings & services are reflective of Yoga’s multi-dimensional, multi-faceted, whole-person approach to embodied wholeness & well-being - for ALL humans.

  • Do no harm; Avoid inflicting harm or suffering on other beings and the planet; Actively interrupt and repair harm whenever and wherever it arises.

  • Diversity is our strength. Whether it's the diversity of our offerings, our staff, our community, our backgrounds, our abilities, our perspectives, or our approaches, we believe it's our individual uniquenesses that collectively brightens, strengthens, and expands what's possible - both personally, and globally.

  • We believe that Yoga is meant for everyONE and everyBODY - regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, economic status, physical ability, race, culture, religious or spiritual beliefs, or background. Our Yoga is shared through an intentionally inclusive, accessible, trauma-sensitive lens that honors and respects individual agency, ability, and wisdom. Come as you are. You are always welcome here.

  • We are here to cultivate a diverse and intentional community of present, mindful, open-hearted human beings who are inspired to live their Yoga off the mat. We believe that together, we are made stronger, and that each of our unique perspectives, experiences, and life stories are an invaluable source of inspiration. Although our individual journeys in life may be quite different, by coming together in this space to move, breathe, feel, and connect, we share this path together. Your liberation is tied to mine; Together, we are walking each other home. Come walk alongside us... we will meet you right where you are.

  • We believe that our Yoga practice is not meant to be contained within the walls of our studio or the confines of our community; We are called to serve the greater community around us and beyond us by sharing our practice in tangible, impactful ways. Whether it's by offering free and/or subsidized Yoga and meditation classes at local senior centers, schools, shelters, or rehabilitation facilities, or by volunteering our time and presence at local food pantries and outreach centers, or through our in-house teacher training scholarships for those who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA, disabled, or subject to any kind of intersectional marginalization both within Yoga spaces and beyond, as well as our reduced-cost workshops and classes for those in financial need, we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those we encounter, both on the mat, and off.

  • We practice what we teach, and live what we practice. On the mat and off. Every day we seek to embody and live from the foundational Yoga philosophies we teach, to integrate these practices into our lives, and to make this world a better place through our intentional contribution to it.

  • We are committed to honoring, upholding, and centering Yoga's innate South Asian roots, and to uplifting and amplifying the voices and perspectives of teachers and community members for whom these teachings are an indigenous cultural, historical, and spiritual tradition. We are committed to preserving the integrity and authenticity of Yoga as it's been taught and practiced for thousands of years, while recognizing that Yoga has always existed in conversation and within a diverse array of cultural, historical, religious, and spiritual perspectives. We are committed to sharing this practice from a holistic, culturally-informed lens that upholds Yoga's multi-dimensional, multicultural, and multi-religious background, and preserves its true essence as a liberatory spiritual practice rooted in thousands of years of South Asian spiritual tradition.

  • We believe that Yoga is an inherently accessible and inclusive liberatory practice centered upon cultivating freedom from suffering and remembering the innate wholeness present in each and every one of us. Its holistic approach addresses all aspects of personal well-being and thriving - through the physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual dimensions of our life. Yoga has no one-size-fits-all approach, and preaches no particular doctrine; It is not meant to take us away from our day-to-day lives, but rather, to connect us more deeply and meaningfully to every moment of our life as it's unfolding. Yoga invites us to be curious about who we are, and how we relate to ourselves and each other; it guides us to move through the world intentionally, compassionately, and reverently, so that we might walk gently upon this Earth, and leave the world a better place than we found it. Yoga gives us the gift of presence - and through it, the superpowers of choice, connection, joy, equanimity, and wonder - so that we might experience that blissful liberation - that peace that surpasses understanding (kaivalya, samadhi) - wherever we are.

Meet our Crew

Come Practice with Us!

Whether you are just getting started, or looking for a new space to roll our your mat, here at Wayfinder Yoga, we have intentionally created our class offerings to meet you just as you are.

Yoga for ALL humans - everyBODY + EVERYbody.

That's why our PLAY+CONNECT classes are offered weekly on a "pay what you can" model. 100% of class proceeds are funneled directly back into the community to help cover the costs of Yoga classes, workshops, services, & teacher training for students who may be struggling financially, either short or long term. They say it takes a village, & this is just one way our little village comes together to lift each other up & make the world a better place.

FAQs

  • Because our studio’s mission is to make Yoga as accessible to as many folks as possible, we are NOT a traditional “hot yoga” studio. We do offer a balance of both warm (gently heated) & room-temperature (non-heated) classes, with studio temperatures typically falling in the 75-85 range depending on the class, time of day, & season. Our intention with offering gently-heated classes is to create a “warm & cozy” environment that feels good, helps your tight, tired muscles relax, & fosters a therapeutic space to unwind.

  • Generally, our “warm” (gently heated) classes are those in the “Energize + Invigorate” & “Revitalize & Renew” formats, whereas our “Nourish + Embody” & “Restore + Center” classes tend to be held at room temperature (non-heated). Other formats, such as our “Awaken + Expand”, may be gently heated in the early morning (6am) but left at room temperature in the evening (7:30pm). That said, we empower our teachers to “read the room” & take great care in cultivating an environment that attends to the needs of everyone - so if you need us to turn the heat down (or bump it up a hair) please never hesitate to ask!

  • As an intentionally all-levels, accessible, inclusive Yoga studio, we have crafted all of our classes to meet you where you are in your Yoga journey… even if it’s just beginning! That said, you can never go wrong with our “Restore + Center” or “Nourish + Embody” formats as a gentle way to ease into your new Yoga & meditation practice, while our “Awaken + Expand” classes are the perfect way to dive in & explore all that Yoga has to offer: mind, body, & spirit!

  • That’s totally ok!! Yoga isn’t about being flexible - rather, it provides us with tools & practices (physical, mental, energetic, & spiritual) to connect with all that we already are, and bring balance to every aspect of our being. So simply come as you are! All that you need, you already have.

  • Nope! We have plenty of Yoga mats available to borrow, and will provide you with all the props you’ll need to be comfortable & supported in your practice! And you don’t need any fancy Yoga clothes either - simply come dressed in anything that feels good & lets you move freely. Just come as you are - you already have everything you need!

  • All are welcome in our space - and that includes your kid(s)! Since every kid (& family) is unique, we trust you to make the call on whether your kid is ready to sit through one of our full all-levels classes. Many adolescents & teens do wonderfully in our all-levels group classes & enjoy the experience of practicing with their adults! Some kids (especially those younger than 7-8) do better in our special Kids & Family Yoga classes that are geared more specifically to their age range & needs. Either way, we believe that families that Yoga together, thrive together!

  • Since our mission is to create an inclusive, accessible, & trauma-conscious environment for everyone, we do allow service animals to attend with their owners as an accommodation for those who need it. We simply ask that you arrive with enough time to check in with the teacher & get settled in before class, so we can ensure both you & your service animal have an easeful, enjoyable practice experience.

  • We DO offer Chair Yoga! In fact, we keep several folding Yoga chairs on-hand in our prop closet at all times - so you can attend any class you’d like, regardless of whether you prefer to roll out a mat or pull up a chair (or both!). We also offer special small-group Chair Yoga & Accessible Yoga class series, as well as Private Instruction & Yoga Therapy; So if you prefer more one-on-one attention &/or specially-curated practices, be sure to check out those offerings too!

  • We make it our mission to cultivate a safe, inclusive, & accessible environment for everyone - and while we recognize that each of us have unique individual needs, we have put careful thought & consideration into making our space as welcoming & inviting to those with special sensory needs as possible. From ensuring our music choices & volume levels are appropriate, to keeping our lighting levels low & natural, and refraining from the use of any essential oils, incense, or strong scents, we hope our studio space meets your needs. But if you ever need any additional accommodations, please do not hesitate to ask! We are here to support you every step of the way.
