We believe in well
dimensions of wellness
Wellness is more than a strong body and clear mind. Organic’s offerings are built on the foundation of multi-dimensional wellness practices that address an individual’s physical, mental/emotional, spiritual, environmental and most importantly, social needs.

what you’ll learn here
physcial
Physical practices help with embodiment – our conscious ability to feel the mind-body connection. We believe embodiment can happen in many ways and aim to help find what works best for you. Slow down in a yoga class or speed up with spin. Practice pranayama (breathwork) or learn about mindful movement in one of our physical classes
spiritual
Spiritual practices are those things that nurture your deep sense of self and connection to Purpose. The beauty of this is that anything can be spiritual – music, movement, art, nature, community. Learn more about spirituality and find what makes you feel grounded and free.
social
Perhaps the most important dimension, social wellness is all about your connections with others. When it comes to our relationships, quality is more important than quantity. A good friend, a loving partner, a present coworker…those around us enrich the texture of our lives. Creating a network of support can begin simply by being close to those with similar interests and goals. Cultivating community is a central value at OY and we invite you to join us!
mental & emotional
The mind and body are not separate. Through mindfulness, meditation and active relaxation, you can learn to influence the speed and focus of your thoughts. We teach with a non-dogmatic and simple approach to meditation accessible to beginners and experienced practitioners. Plus, yoga and meditation allow for physical and emotional rest that lasts well after class ends.
environmental
Environmental wellness is more than simply “going green.” How does your environment (culture, relationships, space) influence your energy? Curating an environment that supports your values and growth is a fundamental piece of wellbeing.
