Mindful Flow with Sebastian:

This moderately-paced flow is welcoming for students of all levels. Class starts with a centering, slow warm-up, and usually includes some sun salutations, standing poses and a slow stretchy wind-down. Students are encouraged to go at their own pace, working with the body they have. Advanced options are offered for those who wish, and rest is encouraged for all when needed.

Yoga & Your Pelvic Floor for Birthing Bodies at All Stages with Em Ike, OTR/L, Pelvic Floor Therapist, & Sebastian Merrill:

Join us for a nurturing workshop designed for individuals at all stages of the birthing experience: whether you’re thinking about carrying a baby, are currently pregnant or gestating, or have given birth, this workshop will help you explore your own connection with your pelvic floor, fostering strength, flexibility, and mindfulness.

Sanctuary yoga instructor Sebastian Merrill (he/him) and Em Ike (they/them), OTR/L, pelvic floor therapist, will guide participants through gentle yoga sequences and breathwork specifically curated to support the unique needs of birthing bodies at all stages, with pelvic floor education and guidance interwoven into our practice to help you deepen your understanding of your own pelvic health. Learn techniques to enhance your body’s resilience, promote relaxation, and cultivate a deep connection with your pelvic floor. Each movement is thoughtfully crafted to address the physical and emotional aspects of wherever you may be in your birth experience, providing a holistic approach to birth preparation and postpartum recovery.

Our teaching is gender-affirming, body-positive, and consent-oriented. All bodies, sizes, and abilities are welcome and celebrated.

*We will reach out to you on the next business day to offer you your discounted pass. General Workshop Passes are redeemable for the majority of our 2-hour workshops.
