Weekly Movement Classes
All classes are held virtually via Zoom with replays available. All membership tiers get access to weekly classes and thousands of videos of past classes. All abilities and levels are welcome in all classes!
Yoga for All
- Tuesdays | 8:30-9:30 am PST
Feel more at home in your body. Priority is placed on understanding the rich possibilities and purposes of each posture/movement in this class. We get fancy with focus, not so much with the aesthetics.
Franklin Method®
- Wednesdays | 10:00-11:00 am PST
Learn more about your design in motion! This class is experiential anatomy at it’s finest. Experience the power of functional anatomy, mental imagery and movement with balls and bands as tools for improving your movement patterns and connecting to yourself.
Franklin Method® Inspired Yoga
- Mondays | 6:30-7:30 pm PST
Franklin Method® principles applied to the yoga you love. Experience the best of both worlds. Utilize Franklin Method® techniques and imagery in yoga postures and experience a new level of somatic discovery within your body.
Circuit Workout
- Thursdays | 8:30-9:30 am PST
Too much fun to be a workout! With creative, functional exercises set to a timer (and projected onto a green screen), this is a one-of-a-kind movement class crosses fitness genres to create a fun holistic class focused on the joy of movement. Each season we have a dance circuit!
Chair/Functional Movement
- Fridays | 8:00-8:45 am PST
Chairs aren’t just for sitting. With techniques from yoga, Pilates and Franklin Method®, this practice focuses on improving balance, mobility and strength while releasing common areas of tension. We do a large portion of class on/around a chair and work with movements to complement daily life. This therapeutic class is for all and although we use a chair, we do go deep!
*This class is recommended for folks who are avoiding getting up and down off of the floor.
Members enjoy seasonal events!
Our members span the globe! Once a season we get together as a community to celebrate our similarities and differences.
In the past, we’ve enjoyed:
- Cooking classes
- Show & tell
- Never have I ever
- Storytelling
- Community discussions
- Movement tutorials (squats, etc)
What is the
Franklin Method®?
The Franklin Method® is a movement modality that’s been practiced for 30+ years and can be applied both as a stand alone training as well as in harmony with other movement modalities such as yoga, Pilates, and various forms of physical therapy.
Along with being the one thing that helped me heal after a debilitating spinal injury, the Franklin Method uses the mind to influence real change in the body. As I like to say "we're in the business of improvement" and have tools to improve almost everything in life. It all starts with how we think.

The Body in Balance: Harmonize Your Natural Asymmetry
We are not inherently symmetrical. We have a large liver on one side, and differently shaped and sized lungs on the right and left, to name but two differences. As a result, symmetry is essentially an impossible task, but experiencing evenness is possible! And it’s all a question of where you place your focus…
