More Ways to Practice This Fall
Yoga is so much more than what happens on the mat. It can be a way to understand your body, work with your nervous system, navigate change, explore ancient wisdom, or simply give yourself permission to slow down.
This fall, Prana is bringing together a diverse collection of workshops and experiences that invite you to explore yoga from different directions—through movement, meditation, Ayurveda, wellness, philosophy, reflection, and rest.
Whether you’re looking to learn something new, deepen your practice, care for your body, or simply create space for yourself, there’s an experience waiting to meet you.
What kind of support would feel most meaningful to you right now—movement, rest, learning, reflection, or connection?
Take a look at the many ways you can practice with us this fall.
Yoga: Move, Explore & Restore
Yoga can meet us in many different places—through movement and play, or reflection and rest. This fall, these offerings invite you to discover different ways to move, restore, and reconnect with your practice.
Yoga Nidra
Experience effortless relaxation as the body and mind settle into a state of deep rest. Yoga Nidra is a guided practice that invites you to rest without needing to perform or achieve anything. Leave feeling renewed, restored, and more connected to yourself.

Find Your Practice This Fall
This fall, give yourself the opportunity to learn something new, explore a different perspective, care for your body, rest deeply, or connect with others in a meaningful way.
You might discover a practice you never expected to love. You might understand something familiar in an entirely new way. Or you might simply give yourself a few hours to step away from your usual rhythm and reconnect.
Whether you’re stepping onto your mat for the first time or have been practicing for years, we hope you’ll find an experience that speaks to where you are right now.
Come curious. Come as you are. And find a new way to practice at Prana.
