Opening the Hips – Sunday Nov. 17, 10:30-1:00
Opening The Hips – Sunday Nov. 17 ~ 10:30-1:00 at One Yoga
Anyone who has practiced yoga knows there is a lot going on in the hips and pelvis. For many practitioners the hips are a source of tension from our sedentary modern lifestyles and its effects. Whether you are a yogi/athlete who loves to move, a yogi/meditator who loves to sit, or both, range of motion in the hips greatly affects the entire human system.
From both the anatomic and energetic perspectives, the pelvis unites the legs (our connection to the earth) and our spine (the central channel of the energetic and nervous system of the body). The pelvis and hip joints are known to store powerful desires and deep emotions – which greatly influence our physical and energetic systems of elimination, creation, procreation, and assimilation. Tightness around the pelvis is also a primary cause in lower back and knee pain.
In this workshop, you will:
– Learn a specific series designed to open all the major muscles of the hip joints
– Explore anatomy, postures, breathing, and meditation techniques to help open the hips and support ideal functioning of the systems of the pelvis and lower torso
– Receive handouts and recordings of the practice
All levels of experience are welcome. Join us in-person at the studio for this workshop or online from anywhere!

Yogic Meditation Immersion +
Optional Teacher Training
w/ Ben Vincent and Tanya Boigenzahn
Begins January 2026
This immersive program is for all sincere seekers and students of Yoga looking to (re)commit to, deepen, and refine their practice of meditation. It begins with a year-long immersion to learn the essential purpose, preparations, processes, and practices of Yogic meditation – all with the support of experienced teachers and a sacred community. Tanya and Ben will guide you to becoming firmly established in your meditation practice so that you may embody its peace and power in all aspects of your life.
About the Program
Yoga is a sacred science (vidya) of Self-Realization – a holistic system of teachings and practices to know our true Selves, commune with the Ultimate Reality (brahman), and bring forth the greater potential and purpose of life. For thousands of years, meditation has been at the heart of the Yoga tradition. The process of Yogic meditation is unique in that it mirrors the journey of human life. It helps us to sustainably unfold and bring healing and awakening to all the layers of our being. As we continue the journey of practice we realize freedom, fulfillment, joy, and connection with the whole of life.
The timeless teachings and practices of Yogic meditation are as relevant today as ever. Amidst the busy-ness, stress, and turbulence of our modern lives, the postures, breathwork, and relaxation of Hatha Yoga have become very popular. However, without meditation it is an incomplete science. Meditation allows us to experience our unchanging essence, True Self or Soul, allowing us to live skillfully and gracefully in a world of change.
This immersive program is for all sincere seekers and students of Yoga looking to (re)commit to, deepen, and refine their practice of meditation.

Tanya and Ben will guide you to becoming firmly established in your meditation practice so that you may embody its peace and power in all aspects of your life.
