Men's Circle with Conor
This men’s circle is a dedicated space to slow down, connect, and explore what it means to live with presence and purpose. Through open dialogue, conscious movement, yoga, and breathwork, we create an environment where men can safely process their inner and outer worlds—on and off the mat. Together, we’ll explore themes of masculinity, dharma (purpose), mindfulness, and stress management, using the body as a gateway to deeper understanding. Conscious movement and authentic expression become the tools that help integrate insight, release stored tension, and cultivate clarity—not just during practice, but in everyday life. This circle is for men seeking connection, embodiment, and a grounded approach to personal growth—where listening, movement, and breath support real integration and meaningful change.
Specialty Class: Inversion & Arm Balance Lab with Ina
This one hour arm balance and inversion lab explores Crow, Side Crow, Handstand, and Eka Pada Koundinyasana II through thoughtful progressions and focused strength work. We’ll refine the falcon point of opposition — learning to press down to rise up — using the imagery of a scale to find balanced lift, core integration, and steady control. Open to yogis who are just beginning to explore arm balances, this class honors the process. There is grace in the lean, in the setup, in the steady press of the hands, even when the feet never leave the earth.
Specialty Class: Human Design: Trust Your Inner Compass
In this Human Design Foundational class, Ashley guides you through the 7 Inner Authorities and how each one uniquely functions within the body. Your Inner Authority is your built-in decision-making system — the way your design is meant to navigate life. Most of us were never taught how to trust our inner guidance. Instead, we learned to look outside of ourselves for answers — to logic, expectations, urgency, or approval. Over time, this conditioning can disconnect us from the steady, reliable wisdom already within. Understanding your own Inner Authority changes that. It reveals how clarity naturally arrives for you, how your body communicates truth, and how to recognize the difference between conditioned pressure and authentic knowing. When you begin making decisions from your internal compass, something shifts. There is less forcing, less second-guessing, less mental spinning — and more steadiness, confidence, and alignment. This class is an invitation to return to your own guidance system. To listen inward. To trust the timing and mechanics of your design. And to begin living from a place that is self-led, grounded, and deeply your own. Ashley can have your unique Bodygraph prepared for the class if you send birth info to ashley@blackbirdyogastudio.com. Please include birthdate, time, and location you were born.
"The new location was gorgeous and felt like the perfect space for my practice. Kara was a wonderful instructor who exudes positive energy and guided us along smoothly (and with a great music selection!). The staff was super helpful and even provided us relaxing cool towels after class that were infused with a scent of our choosing! Nicole always provides a fantastic experience and this was no different. Thanks to the whole Blackbird team."
