The Spirit of Meditation in Movement

Yoga Chapel weaves together Christian reflection with the wisdom of yoga practice.

The Yoga Chapel Mission
...to equip pastors and yoga instructors worldwide to shape embodied worshiping communities that are available to all and connect people outside the traditional church with Christ through a shared interest in yoga.
Our Values
Yoga Chapel values the ancient-modern practice of Christ-centered, embodied worship in community. We embrace the full spectrum of human diversity and strive to cultivate spaces to explore God’s love that are available to all.
Spirit
Yoga Chapel affirms the wisdom that lives within the sacred stories of every culture, tradition, and generation. Our world would be barren without diversity of thought and expression. As the spirit of each faith tradition is shared through its own storytellers, we endeavor to be just one of the voices seeking to illuminate the Christian story for modern listeners.
Meditation
Reflections inspired by the stories of the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament are woven throughout each asana practice. We meditate with the help of our bodies in stillness, while balancing in a pose, and as we flow in movement. Whether you consider Biblical stories to be historically factual, metaphorical or mythological, we believe they carry universal truths that can challenge, nourish, and enlighten.
Movement
We believe in nurturing spirituality holistically – intellectually, emotionally, and physically – and the practice of listening to Biblical reflections while flowing with our breath and our bodies helps our meditation to deepen. The ultimate calling is to move beyond the mat, embodying the stories of compassion and transformation in our everyday lives.
Services
"… your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God… therefore glorify God in your body."
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Churches & Communities

Partner with Yoga Chapel to offer a yoga series for your community. Each series is designed to meet your context’s specific needs. Reflections can be based on themes, seasons, the lectionary or the scripture of your choice.

Conferences, Workshops & Retreats

Bring Yoga Chapel to your next event and offer participants the space and time to become spiritually and physically grounded, centered and inspired - a wonderful way to begin, connect or close your time together.

Private or Small Groups

Whether you’re new to yoga or a long-time practitioner, private and small group sessions offer the personalized attention, assistance and adjustments that can help guide you deeper into your practice.

Online Classes

Experience Yoga Chapel from anywhere in the world! Classes are available to stream on your phone, tablet or computer. Let this be a practice just for yourself or move and meditate with family and friends.

Level One
These classes are perfect for beginners or for yogis who desire a gentle practice. Challenging poses might still be suggested, but they will be complemented with modifications and everything will flow at a slower pace.
Level Two
You can expect several Sun Salutations, to keep your body warmed up, and a combination of meditative movements and challenging poses. Modifications will still be offered for the more difficult poses that might not be accessible to everyone.
Agape Class
Agape classes are provided by donation and all the proceeds are given to a selected charity or cause.
Yoga Styles
gentle flow

Gentle Flow (or Slow Flow) invites you to experience the fluidity of a Vinyasa class without being pushed beyond your physical limits. Poses are choreographed to synchronize your movement with your breath, but a Modified Sun Salutation allows you to flow without having to transition from full-standing to low-plank. Great for those who want to flow at a softer pace.

vinyasa flow

Vinyasa classes are known for their fluid, intentional and dance-like quality. Your breath synchronizes with your movement as you flow from one pose to another. This tends to be a more vigorous and sweat-inducing class, since poses are often linked through Full Sun Salutations that keep your body warmed up. Great for those who love a challenge.

chair

Chair yoga is a gentle practice that adapts hatha yoga poses to be embodied while seated in a chair or while standing using the chair for support. Nurtures strength building, flexibility and deep breathing just like other forms of yoga. Great for those with compromised mobility or for folks who want to practice from their office chair.

hatha

Hatha is a general term that encompasses all forms of modern yoga that teach physical postures. As a style, a hatha yoga class is slow-paced, gentle and instructive. There’s time to really explore the poses since they are held for a few breaths. Great for beginners and all who want to develop alignment, strength and flexibility.

prenatal

Designed with the expectant mother in mind, prenatal yoga can be practiced within all stages of pregnancy or even following the birth. Postures are adapted to exercise mental and physical health while keeping the mother's body safe. Common benefits include: improved sleep, stress reduction, and increased strength, flexibility and endurance.

restorative

Restorative yoga helps you sink into deep relaxation. Bolsters, blocks, blankets and cushions are strategically used to prop and support the body in poses that are held over the course of several minutes to encourage passive stretching. Great for stress release, meditation and sleep preparation.

yin

Intended to complement muscle-activating yang yoga, yin yoga is a quiet and meditative practice focused on lengthening your connective tissues, particularly around your joints. Poses are held for 3-5 minutes and muscles are often completely relaxed. Great for increasing flexibility and patience.
