This offering is a vitalizing, movement-oriented postural practice designed to optimize energetic activation. Through rhythm, repetition, and flowing sequences, the practice engages muscles and the cardiovascular system while building strength and increasing stamina. Synchronized movement and breath support the release of physical tension and mental stress, allowing both gross and subtle energetic blocks to soften. The result is a practice that is both grounding and enlivening - awakening embodied vitality while cultivating the strength, presence, and fluidity that define The Art of Vinyasa.

This offering is a gentle, slow-paced postural yoga practice designed to invite deep relaxation, release, and mindful awareness. Poses are held for longer periods of time - often around three minutes - allowing the body to soften gradually and the nervous system to settle. Most yin yoga postures are practiced seated or lying down, with a primary focus on the lower half of the body - areas that commonly hold tension, including the lumbar spine, pelvis, hips, hamstrings, and thighs. Occasional upper-body postures - such as adapted shoulder openers - may be included to support balance and ease throughout the whole somatic system.

This offering honors the genius of Primary Series Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga - its intelligent sequencing, rhythmic vinyasa, and breath-centered movement - without outdated rigidity, hierarchy, and performance-based expectations. Ujjayi breath anchors movement, and mindful postural adaptions are encouraged to support energetic awareness, balance, and integration. Poses are not earned. Bodies are not corrected into ideals. Perfectionism is recognized as a killer of creativity and love. The practice is approached as an evolving experience - one that emphasizes curiosity and self-inquiry over striving and comparison.

This is a rare opportunity to study the Dhamma with Bhikkhu Kusalamula, a Buddhist monk who has devoted his life to the practice, realization, and transmission of the Buddha's teachings. Through weekly study and guided meditation, participants are invited to explore the profound wisdom of the Majjhima Nikāya (Middle Length Discourses) in a supportive and contemplative setting. Rooted in the earliest teachings of the Buddha, these sessions offer practical insight into the nature of suffering, the causes of confusion, and the path toward greater clarity, compassion, and freedom. Whether you are new to Buddhist practice or a longtime student of the Dhamma, this is an exceptional opportunity to learn directly from a dedicated monastic practitioner whose life is grounded in the living tradition of the Buddha's path.

READING FOR THIS SESSION: MN 77 - Mahāsakuludāyi Sutta (The Greater Discourse to Sakuludāyin). The Buddha teaches a group of wanderers the reasons why his disciples venerate him and look to him for guidance.

Guided meditation drawing from a few wisdom traditions. Together we’ll explore samatha, cultivating calm and steady attention through single pointed focus; vipassana, developing mindful awareness and insight through open observation of present moment experience; and metta, the practice of loving kindness, nurturing compassion for ourselves and others.

This is an immersive restorative yoga experience that invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and settle into a slower rhythm. Guided by Cherie, each class blends restorative postures, gentle freestyle movement, and spacious stillness, creating an environment where you can release tension and reconnect with yourself.

Unwind and transition gently into your evening with this yin-inspired, slow deep stretch offering facilitated by Margo and Melissa. Rooted in the principles of yin yoga, this practice features long-held, passive postures designed to release tension accumulated throughout the day. Poses are primarily seated or supine and are supported by breath awareness and stillness, creating a calm and soothing environment for deep release. The pace is intentionally unhurried, allowing the body to soften and the deeper connective tissues to be gently accessed while the mind settles into quiet awareness. This practice is ideal for anyone looking to decompress, restore balance, and cultivate a sense of ease. Come as you are and leave feeling relaxed, grounded, and ready for a restful evening.

A playful and fluid practice that moves through a circular sequence of postures, inviting you to experience yoga from a fresh perspective.

This innovative offering reimagines the traditional ashtanga learning experience by integrating principles of accessibility and individualized adaptation while honoring the integrity of the lineage. Rather than expecting practitioners to conform to the practice, this approach explores how the practice can intelligently meet each individual where they are. Through detailed breakdowns and a highly supportive teaching environment, practitioners are empowered to build confidence, deepen their understanding, and cultivate a sustainable, lifelong practice.

Guided meditation drawing from a few wisdom traditions.

This practice becomes a grounding rhythm - a way to reset, restore, and meet each moment with calm, clarity, and care whenever it calls.

Guided meditation drawing from a few wisdom traditions. Together we’ll explore samatha, cultivating calm and steady attention through single pointed focus; vipassana, developing mindful awareness and insight through open observation of present moment experience; and metta, the practice of loving kindness, nurturing compassion for ourselves and others.

This offering honors the genius of Primary Series Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga - its intelligent sequencing, rhythmic vinyasa, and breath-centered movement - without outdated rigidity, hierarchy, and performance-based expectations. Ujjayi breath anchors movement, and mindful postural adaptions are encouraged to support energetic awareness, balance, and integration. Poses are not earned. Bodies are not corrected into ideals. Perfectionism is recognized as a killer of creativity and love. The practice is approached as an evolving experience - one that emphasizes curiosity and self-inquiry over striving and comparison.

This is an immersive restorative yoga experience that invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and settle into a slower rhythm. Guided by Cherie, each class blends restorative postures, gentle freestyle movement, and spacious stillness, creating an environment where you can release tension and reconnect with yourself. There is nothing to achieve and nowhere to be - only an opportunity to rest, restore, and listen inwardly. Enhanced by ambient lighting, thoughtfully curated music, and supportive props, the space transforms into a sanctuary for deep exhale and quiet reflection. Whether you're seeking relief from stress, a softer way to end your day, or simply permission to pause, Moody Mondays offers a space to arrive exactly as you are and leave feeling grounded, replenished, and deeply cared for.

This offering is a vitalizing, movement-oriented postural practice designed to optimize energetic activation. Through rhythm, repetition, and flowing sequences, the practice engages muscles and the cardiovascular system while building strength and increasing stamina. Synchronized movement and breath support the release of physical tension and mental stress, allowing both gross and subtle energetic blocks to soften. The result is a practice that is both grounding and enlivening - awakening embodied vitality while cultivating the strength, presence, and fluidity that define The Art of Vinyasa.

Unwind and transition gently into your evening with this yin-inspired, slow deep stretch offering facilitated by Margo and Melissa. Rooted in the principles of yin yoga, this practice features long-held, passive postures designed to release tension accumulated throughout the day. Poses are primarily seated or supine and are supported by breath awareness and stillness, creating a calm and soothing environment for deep release. The pace is intentionally unhurried, allowing the body to soften and the deeper connective tissues to be gently accessed while the mind settles into quiet awareness. This practice is ideal for anyone looking to decompress, restore balance, and cultivate a sense of ease. Come as you are and leave feeling relaxed, grounded, and ready for a restful evening.

A playful and fluid practice that moves through a circular sequence of postures, inviting you to experience yoga from a fresh perspective. Mandala Yoga combines flowing vinyasa with intentional breathing and concentration. The circular sequences are designed to strengthen the body and bring mobility to the joints, while giving you the freedom to explore the practice with your own energetic emphasis - moving in a way that can be smooth and contemplative or vibrant and strong.

Rise and shine for your body and mind. This offering integrates yin and yang aspects of asana and pranayama practice to optimize energetic vitality and presence. Feel into the freshness of all kinds of new beginnings and endings, and explore the magnitude of your limitless potential. This practice is an opportunity to reconnect with yourself, care for your nervous system, and explore the expansive potential that arises when effort and surrender meet.

Step-by-step guidance in the foundational poses of the primary and intermediate series Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga with detailed alignment cueing mindful and steady support. This innovative offering reimagines the traditional ashtanga learning experience by integrating principles of accessibility and individualized adaptation while honoring the integrity of the lineage. Rather than expecting practitioners to conform to the practice, this approach explores how the practice can intelligently meet each individual where they are. Through detailed breakdowns and a highly supportive teaching environment, practitioners are empowered to build confidence, deepen their understanding, and cultivate a sustainable, lifelong practice.

The sustained traction of yin yoga reaches deep connective tissue, stretching and stimulating fascia, tendons, and ligaments – especially when muscles are not engaged. With muscles relaxed, the connective tissues around joints can be accessed without interference at a deeper level, allowing them to be remodeled and revitalized.

Saturday morning September 26th we’ll be honoring the Autumn Equinox with sun salutations at Community Yoga Center (2900 Adams Street, Suite A-20, Riverside, CA 92504) and we hope you’ll consider practicing with us. The practice will begin around 7:30am. Practicing cycles of sun salutes with mantra is a beautiful yogic practice of offering gratitude for the light-giving force of the sun and recognizing the gift of life itself. It’s a practice of reverence and commitment, and a special opportunity to connect in community.

This offering is a gentle, slow-paced postural yoga practice designed to invite deep relaxation, release, and mindful awareness. Poses are held for longer periods of time - often around three minutes - allowing the body to soften gradually and the nervous system to settle. Most yin yoga postures are practiced seated or lying down, with a primary focus on the lower half of the body - areas that commonly hold tension, including the lumbar spine, pelvis, hips, hamstrings, and thighs. Occasional upper-body postures - such as adapted shoulder openers - may be included to support balance and ease throughout the whole somatic system.

Welcome the new season with a fresh start! You’re invited to join us for Autumn Cleaning gathering at the yoga center on Saturday, September 26 from 12pm to 3pm. Come for part or all of the time. Together we’ll tidy, refresh, and prepare our shared space for the beautiful season ahead.

Yin yoga is a gentle, slow-paced postural yoga practice where poses are held for extended periods of time. Three-minute holds are not uncommon. Most yin yoga poses are seated or supine. The sustained traction of yin yoga reaches deep connective tissue, stretching and stimulating fascia, tendons, and ligaments – especially when muscles are not engaged. With muscles relaxed, the connective tissues around joints can be accessed without interference at a deeper level, allowing them to be remodeled and revitalized.

This offering honors the genius of Primary Series Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga - its intelligent sequencing, rhythmic vinyasa, and breath-centered movement - without outdated rigidity, hierarchy, and performance-based expectations.
