About The Studio

The BOHO WAy
we aspire to teach a variety of classes & events

Our work is informed and inspired by Patanjali’s 8 limbed practice– a practice that treats the physical body yes, but is well rounded in its inclusion of breath and meditation techniques, chanting, philosophy and ethical practice. We do our best to share how yoga techniques help us to experience a greater connection to everything- even when applied outside of a yoga class to other movement forms and daily life experiences.

We host yearly teacher trainings in our most beautiful shire and believe that time spent in nature helps us feel our wholeness. We love the Willamette Valley, where we are grateful to call home. We aim to use our platform to support other incredible local entrepreneurs who comprise a craftsmanship oriented economy and those who are stewarding the land responsibly and with reverence. Check out the businesses we support. We are most proud to partner with many of them in movement events in and around the valley.

We wouldn’t be us without the blessings of our surroundings, our community and our eclectic way of life. The incredible landscapes of this region and the primacy of nature’s patterns are so healing- we hope you will join us in the Boho studio (in person or virtually!) or outside in our beautiful community for our Spring & Summer events. 

Thank you for being here. Thank you for practicing yoga.

What Makes Boho, Boho?

Boho Yoga’s aim is to promote a health oriented, joyful and connected, inclusive community through mental and physical self care techniques offered to us through a historic lineage of this ancient practice of yoga.
Boho Yoga’s down home, eclectic vibe welcomes all spiritual seekers looking for holistic healing and transformation. While we enjoy the science and mechanics of the human form (what an amazing thing- to have a human body!), and stay up to date on functional and organic movement patterns, we love that yoga offers an inroad to the mindbody connection and gives us a deeper philosophical framework to manage the wildness of being a human being- especially at this time!

Enjoy endless benefits

what we mean when we talk about yoga

We love helping you feel strong, supported, fluid and capable in your physical body, but you don’t have to be bendy to practice yoga. Our movement classes range from primary to complex and we welcome you to begin where you are.  It’s true that you may increase your body’s flexibility and mobility through committed and sustained effort and a willingness to be as you are, but yoga is as much about helping the mind be more pliable and balanced as it is the body.

Yoga is insight and by practicing it you will come to know yourself and your body on a deeper level. Our hope is that with this knowledge you will  be informed to make decisions that support your overall wellbeing.  We love applying these methods to the body in various forms and seeing/experiencing more joy and levity in our overall experience- more ease living in the world.

Our yoga always includes options for modifications and a range of classes with varying physical intensity. Aside from physical postures, asana, a Boho yoga practice may incorporate embodied awareness from various movement schools, nervous system regulation, specific breath techniques- pranayama-, mindfulness practice & meditation/visualization. 

Yoga serves the body, but is not solely for the body. We give reverence for the 8 limbed practice of Yoga as outlined by Patañjali in the Yoga Sutras which offers a holistic system of ethical precepts and postural, breath and meditative techniques to enhance human experience and potential. We draw on the rich tradition culled from the Vedas and offer homage and respect to the many devoted teachers and students, originally hailing from northern India, who shared this practice through lineages spanning thousands of years. Yoga originated in India and although the west has modified it, for better or for worse, we remain committed to honoring and acknowledging yoga’s origin and being students and sharers of yoga history and philosophy.
