Yoga Classes 

Check out the Yoga Outreach Global Access (Y.O.G.A.) offerings and more on the Humble Monkey Wellness® schedule page! All classes are $5 and you can buy a 10-class card for $50 to simplify your life.

Yoga Therapy

Yoga therapy applies all facets of yoga (asana, pranayama, meditation, subtle energy, etc.) to help unlock our true potential when we have faced setbacks on our path.

Thai Massage Therapy

Thai massage is an ancient form of body work that uses a series of focused compressions, yoga poses and assisted stretching to return our system to balance. Please visit the Thai Massage Therapy page for more information.

Holistic Wellness Guidance

Sometimes we are looking to make some changes in our lives but find the task daunting. Whether is it energy balancing, beginning meditation, changing dietary choices that no longer serve us, or starting on a yoga journey, Holistic Wellness sessions can help make the transition simpler, fun, and successful.
Yoga Practices Page 
Our Yoga Practices page provides you the ultimate flexibility to do a well-rounded Humble Monkey Wellness practice when it fits your schedule. The wide variety of offerings consists of 15 recent recordings from our studio: 3 Yin, 3 Vinyasa, and 2 Therapeutic classes that rotate each month, as well as 7 permanent additions. Our Foam Roller class was recently added to the permanent section. A monthly donation ($30 is suggested) paid through the PayPal button above or at this link, grants you access to the video page. Upon receipt you will receive an e-mail or text with that month's password.  

Workshops

John offers monthly workshops that provide an opportunity to deepen your knowledge and experience with yoga. Recent topics have included Asana Basics, Yin Yoga, a Restorative and Meditation practice, and a discussion on The Bhagavad Gita.

Newsletter
We are running downhill to the end of 2022, can you believe it? The days just do fly by. We appreciate your commitment to have yoga as a part of your self-care and we'd love to hear feedback as to how we can better serve you, our community. Especially if you have any ideas for our new Saturday sessions!
  • We have experienced some glitches in the Zoom process, specifically as it pertains to John's sessions. We believe we understand the issue and our solution is to have students text John (860-984-4616) before class and he will send you the link to the meeting. Otherwise, you will be getting the "Host has Another Meeting in Progress" message. Let's try this approach and hopefully we'll be smooth sailing again. 
  • ​December's Saturday class line-up is here: 
​12/3 - Energizing Morning Flow with Heather (90 min, $15, on-line option). A slow yoga flow designed to energize body and mind. As the daylight gets shorter and the temperatures colder our energy levels decrease. Combat the seasonal changes with a vibrant asana flow, energizing pranayama and the exploration of mudras or hand gestures. Class is suitable for students of many abilities.

12/10 - Foam Roller Class with John (60 min, regular class price, in person only). Have you heard about foam rolling as a means to improve your flexibility and your other physical activities? It's all true but how do you do it? You'll learn a whole body routine and we'll discuss how and why it works while getting the kinks out of our fascia. If you are new to this, grab your foam roller here, and if your roller has been gathering dust, grab it and let's do it! When ordering, we highly recommend the black version over the white or blue.

12/17 - Yin Yoga with Dawn (90 min, $15) A 90 minute Yin practice, concentrating on the element of water. Winter is water season, the Yin practice itself is reflective of water, the kidney and bladder meridians are associated with water, the physical, emotional and spiritual connections with water, this and much more will be discussed during practice. This season is a time to prepare for renewal and creation. Gift yourself the gift of slowing down, changing the pace of the holidays and join me for a tranquil, calming practice.
​
  • Don't forget to purchase gift certificates for the yogi's and yoginis on your list. Class cards and sessions at BGB, LLC are available. Contact John for details.

  • Humble Monkey Wellness will be closed the week between Christmas and New Year's this year. There will be no classes 12/24/22-1/1/23.
​
  • We use ​​Mindbody as our online booking and electronic merchant marketing service.
