Considered the mother of all modern yoga traditions, Hatha invites practitioners to slow down and listen.

Vinyasa Flow Yoga

Flow, breathe, move — and move again! Eddie Sheer, lead instructor at San Francisco's Power Acqua Studio, brings her signature dynamic energy to this Vinyasa class, weaving breath and movement into a single, uninterrupted current.

Expect fluid transitions, invigorating sequences, and a practice that leaves you both energized and deeply alive.

Yoga & Pilates Fusion

Yoga & Pilates Session with Eddie Sheer (Power Acqua Studio, San Francisco)

11:00 AM / Terra Salon

Duration: 60 minutes

Where the mat meets the reformer. In this fusion session, Eddie Sheer blends the strength-building precision of Pilates with the expansive, breath-driven movement of yoga.

The result is a full-body workout that tones, lengthens, and stabilizes — challenging you in all the right places while honoring the principles of mindful movement.

Yin & Yang Yoga

Yin and Yang Yoga & Guided Meditation with Sarah Weng

11:00 PM / Pearl Salon

Duration: 75 minutes

Every light casts a shadow; every effort calls for rest. Sarah Weng's Yin and Yang class honors this fundamental balance by pairing active, heat-generating sequences with long, surrendered holds designed to release deep connective tissue.

A guided meditation brings the session to its quiet close, leaving you in perfect equilibrium between effort and ease.

Yoga & Qi-Gong Fusion

Qi-Gong Yoga Session & Guided Meditation with Sarah Weng

3:00 PM / Terra Salon

Duration: 75 minutes

Ancient traditions in elegant dialogue. This session weaves the slow, intention-filled gestures of Qi-Gong with the posture and breathwork of yoga, cultivating vital energy — or qi — through deliberate, meditative movement.

Sarah Weng guides practitioners into a profound state of inner stillness, concluding the session with a meditation that settles the mind and opens the heart.

Yoga for All

Yoga for Children & Families with Annawelle Bouchet & Eddie Sheer

3:00 PM / Conference Salon

Duration: 60 minutes

Little bodies, big imaginations. This joyful, inclusive session invites children and their families to explore yoga together through playful poses, storytelling, and shared breathing exercises.

Bouchet and Eddie Sheer create a warm, welcoming space where every age is celebrated and movement becomes a language the whole family can speak.

Conferences & Talks

Clare Stevenson & Maura Irving: "The Bible of Yoga and QiGong"

1:00 PM / Conference Salon

Duration: 90 minutes

Years of dedicated practice distilled into one essential volume. Clare Stevenson and Maura Irving, co-authors of this landmark work, share the philosophy, research, and lived wisdom behind their book — an illuminating conversation at the crossroads of Eastern movement traditions and contemporary wellness.

Not to be missed for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the body-mind connection.

Conferences & Talks

Alice Throne-Dalton & Mark Throne: "Travelling Through Healing: Our Yoga and Trekking Experience in Nepal"

4:00 PM / Conference Salon

Duration: 90 minutes

Mountains have always been places of transformation. In this intimate talk, Alice Throne-Dalton and Mark Throne recount their remarkable journey through the Himalayas — where the discipline of yoga met the rawness of high-altitude trekking and something shifted, irrevocably, within them.

Part travel memoir, part spiritual reflection, their story is an invitation to consider how movement, landscape, and breath can heal in ways we never expected.
