New Moon Solstice Celebration & Solace

We are back at our friend Andrea’s Peace House for the only time this summer, so don’t miss out!

This moment in time is pushing us to face inequities without losing our compassion, to acknowledge grief without losing sight of our joy, to expose hypocrisy without sacrificing our values. This dynamic tension is not new to us yogis. This is what our training has prepared us for. Many of you have been out it streets protesting, on the phones calling representatives, and in your homes trying to explain all of this to your children. It’s exhausting and it’s necessary.

My service is to offer you a safe and supportive space to rest deeply, to face the grief, the heartache, the anger and hurt and alchemize it into elevated consciousness and fuel to keep going, to keep fighting, to keep shining your love and light. Because we need you.

Find solace in your breath, in your body that is alive and thrumming with experience, in your heart that keeps beating, in your community, in your innate connection to Nature

Come welcome in the summer season and the Solstice in community with yoga, meditation, journaling, sound and maybe even some dancing and shaking to release and renew yourself. This will be a gentle, anyone-can-do-it practice.

If you come in person, plan to stay after for tea and treats.

Whether you join me at this beautiful home or livestream via Zoom, you will get a meditative movement practice to soothe your body and your nerves with Hatha yoga, deep stretching, mindful breathing & meditation.

New Moon Reset in the Garden

New Moon Reset is back; this month in a luscious garden in full Spring bloom.

Whether you join me on the garden deck or livestream via Zoom, you will get a meditative movement practice to soothe your body and your nerves with gentle yoga, restorative poses, aromatherapy, breath work, & meditation.

Monday May 26th
5-6pm, $25 entrance

At a private home garden in Mt. Washington, address provided after registration.

New Year Yoga Mala 2025

Greet the first new day of a new year with a community celebration and collective prayer for peace, love and heart-centered living. This is the return of an event I used to host annually at my former studio in Hawaii, and I am finally feeling called to offer it again with the lovely community I have been slowly rebuilding since, here in LA and around the world.

This practice will include mantra, meditation, music and the practice of 108 sun salutations. Don’t worry. Anyone can do this practice because I’ll be offering modified variations of the sun salutation and encouraging rest when you need it to make this accessible to anyone who wants to begin the new year with devotion and dedication to our highest ideals.

This event will be by donation only. Suggested donation is $10-30+, but any and all donations within your means and from your heart will be accepted. I’ll be using a portion of your donations to fund my continued studies to become an Ayurveda Health Counselor (I’m almost there!) and the remainder will be donated to a foundation run by a friend that supports poor, rural children in the Pacific Coast region of Colombia.

Please register below to join me online or in person. I’ll be live streaming this class on Zoom so you can join from anywhere! If you want to practice in person you’ll get a special experience of practicing with the view you see in the photograph above, plenty of fresh air and the elevated vibrations of your fellow practitioners. Space will be limited so please sign up below and chose a donation amount that suits you. If you don’t see the amount you want to give please Venmo me at @Maya-Siklai and put “Yoga Mala” in the notes.

Come celebrate the full moon online or in person at my new home studio with an all levels Energy Flow class, followed by time to chat over chai and share our dreams for the next lunar cycle. This Full Moon is also a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces.

Eclipses are a time when the energy source, the sun, is literally interrupted, making it a time for surprises, power outages, and plot twists, so this class will strengthen your body and calm your mind and nervous system so you can move gracefully through whatever this eclipse season brings.

Leave class feeling good in your body so you can rest and lay low during the eclipse on Tuesday.

Monday September 16th
9-10am at my home studio

Space is limited, please register in advance!

Hybrid: practice in person at a private location (get the address when you sign up) OR practice online via Zoom.
