Emily is a yoga and meditation teacher focused on practices that build awareness and relax the nervous system. Emily teaches both active and restorative styles of yoga; in both practices, she brings an approach focused on listening and attending to the sensations in the body and the thoughts in the mind. Emily hopes to cultivate, for herself and for her students, an environment where the body is not a site of criticism or improvement, but rather of experience and listening. Emily has taught yoga for nearly a decade and has had the opportunity to train with many incredible teachers. A student of Sarah and Ty Powers, Emily is working toward her 500-hour training through the Insight Yoga Institute. In the yoga community, Emily has studied with Sarah and Ty Powers, Paul and Suzzee Grilley, Tias Little, and many others. She teaches vinyasa, hatha, restorative, yin and yoga nidra. Additionally, Emily has studied Buddhist meditation in the United States and Asia, has sat hundreds of days of silent retreat, including month-long intensives, and currently studies with Tempel Smith.

Sheri is an Assistant Trainer in the Feldenkrais Method®, choreographer, dance teacher, and yoga instructor. She has been teaching movement arts to diverse students since 1992. Sheri's precise alignment instructions support ease and self-awareness while moving: “I prefer to think of the yoga asana as movements, rather than postures, so we experience them as constantly changing landscapes for the journey of our attention, rather than as destinations. This may imply to some that my classes are vinyasa; or flow, style, which is not the case. I do include flow sequences most days, but my classes also include stillness. In stillness, we have the time to develop awareness and tune into subtler sensations and the movements of the breath.” Sheri also teachers Feldenkrais at Lotus and beyond. Feldenkrais is not yoga, but a unique movement practice and philosophy that is a great complement to yoga, or to practice on its own. The movements in Feldenkrais are small & slow, to help you develop more awareness, fluency, and ease in your movements. This is a great practice for those who have movement challenges while at work or play (including yoga!), and would like to ensure that they are moving wisely and performing optimally. It is also appropriate for anyone who would like to sense themselves more clearly, enjoy more efficient breathing, calm their nerves, and feel more at home in their bodies.

Reese’s yoga journey began with a regular asana practice that she sought out as a way to cope with a variety of stressors including the demands of balancing parenting and her career as a leader in strategy and data science. After several years of maintaining a daily vinyasa practice she was called to deepen her knowledge of all aspects of yoga which led her to complete the 200 hour yoga teacher training through 8 Limbs Yoga Studios in Seattle. As a yoga instructor, Reese’s style favors strength-building vinyasa flows that are focused on mindful use of breath along with alignment cues to mitigate injury and foster a deeply intuitive and sustainable practice
