Experience Overview
This experience utilizes the sensory and tactile work of self massage with a ball to roll tension away from the body. The premise is simple and the effects run deep. You will be guided through simple myofascial release techniques, targeted stretching, and finally restorative yoga poses that allow the whole system to relax.
How it works
What is restorative yoga? It is a passive practice that involves laying on the floor in various positions, often supported by props like pillows and blankets, with the goal of stress/tension reduction, and relaxation.
What do you need? A little big of floor or wall space will serve you well as we take time to decompress. Any and all levels of yoga experience are welcome, beginners and experts will walk away with tips and techniques they can replicate to feel good long after this experience is over.
What to expect? You can expect to think and move outside the box, try new things, or try old things in a new way. My sequencing is both creative and smart, rooted in biomechanics, with a mixture of precision and exploration. I also have a deep appreciation for mindfulness practices like restorative yoga and sound baths. I lead meditations using singing bowls, gongs, and chimes with the goal of diving into the subtlety of listening.

Your Host
Kristina Clemons
I have always connected to movement as a means for expression, discipline, joy, and mental/emotional regulation. My formal movement journey began with classical ballet in Georgia, segued into yoga in NYC (2004), and I began teaching in 2010. I love to learn, therefore many traditions influence my teaching: intelligent vinyasa, Iyengar, Physiyoga (the merging of physical therapy techniques and yoga), and meditation.
Depending on the class style, you can expect to think and move outside the box, try new things, or try old things in a new way. My sequencing is both creative and smart, rooted in biomechanics, with a mixture of precision and exploration. I also have a deep appreciation for mindfulness practices like restorative yoga and sound baths. I lead sound meditations using singing bowls, gongs, and chimes with the goal of diving into the subtlety of listening. There is a time to move big and a time to get quiet; my practice over the years has been to listen to which one will bring balance to daily life.
