Practitioner's Circle

The Practitioner's Circle is the living center of Circle Yoga Shala — a membership community built around one simple, radical idea: that practice is not something you do occasionally, but something you return to.

Whether you are brand new to yoga or have practiced for decades, this is a place designed for the long arc — not the quick fix. We move slowly, thoughtfully, and together. The emphasis is never on performance or perfection, but on showing up honestly.

The Practitioner's Circle is a home for practice, reflection, and community.

Not a class. Not a course. A place to return to — again and again.

• Weekly Live Class: Live yoga classes with Holly, Matt, or Stela. Each session is rooted in the month's theme and designed to be accessible to all levels.

• On-Demand Library: Access to recorded live practices — so you can return to sessions that resonate and practice on your own schedule.

• Monthly Satsang: A live community gathering each month to introduce the theme, share teachings, and sit together in reflection. Part class, part conversation, part ritual.

• Off-the-Mat Practices: Guided contemplations, self-observation exercises, Ayurvedic daily rhythms, and inquiry prompts to carry the theme into ordinary life.

• Community Sharing: A space to share written or video reflections with the community. Teachers and fellow practitioners respond with encouragement and insight. Sharing is part of practice here.

• Seasonal Teachings: Occasional pop-up teachings tied to the seasons, world events, or what the community is asking for — keeping the practice responsive and alive.

• Shala Stories: Glimpses into the lives, practices, and reflections of your teachers — from the morning routine to the books on the nightstand. The practice as it actually lives, not as it performs.

• Shala teachers' forum: Those who have completed a Circle Yoga Shala training, like the Foundational 200hr or Advanced 300hr Yoga Teacher Training, will gain access to a special forum designed only for Shala teachers.
