Monthly Full Moon Series:

In this candlelit restorative practice, we’ll rest in deeply supported postures that ground the body and soothe the nervous system. Guided Yoga Nidra will carry you through moonlit forests, shadow and flame, the wisdom of release, and the renewal that follows like tracing infinity across the night sky.

Surrounded by autumn ambiance, this class is an invitation to align with the rhythm of the season, to pause, reflect, and reconnect to your inner magic.


Let this be your time to breathe between chapters, a time to soften, realign, and listen inward.

This session will include:

  • Restorative Yoga – Gentle, supported postures to help release tension and open the body to relaxation.

  • Yoga Nidra Meditation – A guided journey into deep relaxation, allowing you to align with the energy of the full moon and summer solstice.

What to Bring: Comfortable clothing and any props that help you relax. We do have ample mats and props available for your use at the yoga studio.

Spaces are limited for this intimate gathering—reserve your spot today to step into the magic of stillness and renewal.

We look forward to sharing this special evening with you .

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re the only one dealing with bladder leaks, bowel changes, pelvic discomfort, or shifts in sexual function — you’re not. These concerns affect people of all ages, especially during menopause, andropause, postpartum recovery, and times of stress. But most of us aren’t taught how the pelvic floor actually works…or how to support it.

Anna Albrecht

Join Anna Albrecht, DPT, Board Certified Pelvic Health Physical Therapist, for a warm, light-hearted, and deeply informative workshop that takes the embarrassment out of pelvic health. You’ll learn what’s normal, what’s common, and what’s treatable—along with practical tools you can start using right away.

Anna blends her expertise as a pelvic health PT, respiratory therapist, Stott Pilates instructor, and yoga teacher to meet every participant where they are. Expect a mix of gentle movement, breathwork, myofascial release education, and open conversation.

In this workshop, you’ll walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of pelvic anatomy and how it influences bladder, bowel, and sexual health

  • Simple breathing + movement techniques to improve comfort, confidence, and function

  • Strategies for managing menopause-, andropause-, or postpartum-related changes

  • Daily self-care practices that truly support long-term pelvic well-being

  • The freedom to ask questions you’ve always wanted answered — in a supportive, judgment-free space

Bring your curiosity and your sense of humor. It’s time to talk openly and learn how pelvic health can transform your quality of life.
