Harry Potter Inspired Yoga 2017

Harry Potter inspired yoga has come and gone, but maybe you can catch the train at Platform 9 and 3/4 next year!

This practice was designed for ages 7 and up, and use of wands was encouraged! I drew inspiration from the books, movies and screenplays, and created sequences with a playful approach. I tried to make it fun and challenging for both children and adults. We did a Moon Salutation to warm up (inspired by Luna Lovegood), some transfiguration magic to do animal poses, and we both dueled and flew like wizards.

The turnout was extremely modest, but I'm grateful for those who came! We had a little fun with a homemade photobooth prop after our practice, which was inspired by Sirius Black's infamous escape from Azkaban.

Besides the wizards and muggles in attendance, we also had a guest owl. She was very well-behaved during the practice and didn't try to deliver any mail while we were on our mats, using our wands.

I hope to see you next year!

Harry Potter Inspired Yoga for Families

This October, I'll be offering Harry Potter inspired yoga for families in Salt Lake City! I'm excited to bring the magic of the books and the magic of yoga together for a fun event.

Open to children ages 7+, as well as adults, the class will incorporate readings from the books, poses with wizard-inspired names, and wands for all! It will be for all skill-levels, and will be the perfect activity to usher in the Halloween season.

Pricing is not yet set, but expect around $15/person, with discounts for parent+child admission, couples (adult+adult) admission, and for families/groups of 3+ admission. Class will be one hour long, and wands will be included in the cost of admission.

More details will be forthcoming for this class, which will most-likely be held on a Friday evening in October.
