Fat+Happy: YIN Yoga (6 week series)

This six week beginner friendly online fat positive yoga series focuses on the joy of taking up space. When you live in a big body, you spend so much time being told to shrink and Yin Yoga is the antidote! A practice for deep stretching and release, most poses take place in a seated or reclined position and we hold for a longer period of time. If flexibility is what you're looking for, this is the class for you!

Class includes:

  • a five minute theme discussion

  • 70 minute practice, including an opening and closing meditation

  • 15 minute group gathering and discussion at the end of class

  • modifications for folks in larger bodies

  • a follow up email with journaling prompts

  • a class recording, available for one week

Whether you identify as fat, full bodied, plus-sized or big bodied, please know that you deserve to find joy and freedom in movement and to feel good in your amazing body. Coming to a class that is designed specifically with you in mind is a great place to start!

Fat+Happy: Yin Flow Yoga (6 week series)

Fat+Happy: Yin Flow Yoga (6 week series)

This six week online fat positive yoga series explores the joy of yoga through a fat positive lens. If you've ever wanted to try a down dog, playfully balance, or simply touch your toes without feeling the need to lose weight first, this class is for you! We begin with Yin Yoga for deep stretching and then move into a flowing hatha practice for heat and play.

Fat+Happy Yoga challenges the notion that we cannot move joyfully in larger bodies, that movement's only focus is weight loss, and that we cannot be both happy and fat. Because we can!

You can be fat and happy, you can do yoga in a big body, and these classes will happily show you how!

Class includes:

  • a five minute theme discussion

  • 70 minute practice, including an opening and closing meditation

  • 15 minute group discussion at the end of each class

  • modifications for folks in larger bodies

  • a follow up email with journaling prompts

  • a class recording, available for one week
