Root to Rise: A Dynamic All-Levels Flow

A SPECIAL YOGA CLASS ACCOMPANIED BY CRYSTAL SINGING BOWLS, 3:30 - 4:45 PM

Join Yoga teacher Pushpa Danielle Barr for this all-levels power vinyasa (flowing postures) class that will begin with intentional breath and a slow, steady build to support strength, focus, and fluidity. Expect accessible arm balance variations, thoughtful transitions, and plenty of options along the way to honor your unique practice. Rooted in breath and choice, this class invites you to move with purpose and rise with confidence—on and off the mat.

  • Brunch & dinner in the shared community dining hall
  • A guided campus tour to Sunset Ridge (weather permitting)
  • Personal time
  • Option to stay for arati (ritual of light) after dinner at the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple
