Meet Your Guide: Soda Zelene

This Series Is For You If...

You've always been curious about yoga but felt too intimidated to walk into a regular class

You're dealing with stress, anxiety, or burnout and want a healthy way to decompress

You've tried meditation apps but found them hard to stick with on your own

You want to give yourself a meaningful gift this holiday season — one that actually lasts

You're returning to yoga after time away and want a gentle, welcoming re-entry

You simply want to feel more at home in your body and more at peace in your mind

No flexibility required. No special equipment. No experience necessary. Just a willingness to show up.

Your Questions, Answered

Absolutely. This series was designed from the ground up for people with zero yoga or meditation experience. Soda will guide you through every posture and technique step by step, and modifications are offered throughout every class. You don't need to be flexible, fit, or familiar with any yoga terminology. You just need to show up.
This is one of the most common worries — and one of the most unfounded. Everyone in this group is a beginner. The whole point of keeping the group small (just 10 people) is so that Soda can give personalized attention to each person. There is no competition, no judgment, and no "wrong" way to be in this class.
We hear you — and we'd gently ask: isn't that exactly why you need this? One hour a week is a small investment for something that can genuinely shift how you feel during the most stressful season of the year. Classes are on Tuesday evenings at 5:30 PM, and we've intentionally skipped Thanksgiving week (Nov 24) so the schedule works with the holiday.
Good news: a busy mind is not a disqualifier. In fact, it's the most common experience in meditation — even for people who've practiced for years. Soda will teach you practical, accessible techniques for working with a busy mind rather than fighting it. Many people are surprised to discover that meditation is much more approachable than they expected.
Nope! The studio provides mats, blocks, straps, and all the props you'll need. Just wear comfortable clothing you can move in and bring a water bottle. That's it.
Life happens! While we encourage you to attend all five sessions for the full experience, missing a class won't leave you lost. Soda builds each week in a way that's accessible even if you've missed a session. Reach out to the studio if you have concerns about attendance.

Spots Are Limited to 10 — Don't Wait

This series is intentionally small so every person gets the attention and care they deserve. Once it's full, it's full. If you've been thinking about starting a yoga or meditation practice, this is your sign.
