Our meet-up group’s hope is to create a safe space for women to practice yoga with other women in the most limitless ways possible. Clothes can be limiting, in a physical, emotional and spiritual sense: Physically, the clothes limit the way we move.  Clothes are limiting.

Practicing yoga nude liberates your body, and doing it with other women heightens your sense of …

No matter where we are in life, there is always more to learn. While it is easy to find continuing education classes that can help you learn a foreign language or a new hobby, there is little to no support available for those who are interested in moving beyond the realm of learning new skills and into the adventure of learning how to live life to its fullest.
