Kundalini Yoga & Meditation


This class is taught by:

Kelly Callahan

As the co-founder of Indigo Yoga & Pike & Plank Pilates, Kelly is a force of nature as both a Yoga & Pilates instructor. She possesses a refined ability to observe every individual in class, giving modifications and challenges to each, while simultaneously facilitating a dynamic and exciting group workout.

Unafraid of blending styles and modalities, she incorporates yoga asana with traditional Pilates repertoire.

Kelly has led several Yoga teacher trainings over the years and is very excited to have curated this unique & special training for our Indigo community.

Kelly is also a musician and a healing presence in the lives of many. Her warmth and humor have touched more than a decade of students at Indigo Yoga & Pike Plank, our sister studio. Her message is simple and clear: always follow your heart.

Charlene Ziem

Charlene has been practicing yoga for over 15 years and more recently tapping into the spiritual aspects of the practice. Inspired to learn more, she's taken several yoga teacher trainings at Green Yogi in Berkeley & at Indigo Yoga in Walnut Creek.

Charlene brings a nourishing and grounding energy to her classes weaving in yogic philosophy, chanting, astrology and practices to cultivate more joy, health and balance in the lives of her students.

She's also a certified Sound Healer using vibrational techniques with modern healing to help clients release energetic blockages, restore harmony and active self-healing.

Off the mat, she enjoys hiking, riding bikes, making beaded earrings and cooking family dinners.

Jennifer Shaw

Jennifer has dedicated herself to the practice, study and teaching of yoga since discovering its joys and benefits while rehabbing a shoulder injury. Over the years she noticed how she was replacing miles of running with longer periods of time on her yoga mat.

Jennifer is a RYT-200 vinyasa teacher who has trained in the advanced disciplines of power vinyasa (Jason Crandell), Intuitive Sequencing (Janet Stone), and Mind & Meditation (Gurumukh) and is currently pursuing her RYT-500.

Her accessible, grounded classes are an integration of power yoga combining dynamic anatomical alignment, pranayama and meditation.

Sosie Sagherian

Sosie's classes are infused with humor, especially in the midst of the challenge. She prides herself on providing modifications as she encourages students to explore the edges of their boundaries without "going over the edge". Sosie keeps it real by presenting her authentic self and holding a healing and elevated space for each person in class.
 
Sosie Sagherian grew up and spent the majority of her life in the Boston area. She made her way to the Pacific NW with her husband and two sons in 2005, eventually landing in the Bay Area 2010.

Sosie holds a Bachelor of Architecture. Though she no longer practices architecture, her passion for building and creating is very much alive and thriving. You might know her from working the front desk and have seen Sosie's Stacks gemstone bracelets that she creates for us at Indigo. She has been practicing Kundalini Yoga since 1995 and has been teaching weekly since 2007.

 

A transformational and powerful yoga practice that creates long-lasting physical and emotional balance, focus, intuitive clarity, and deep healing. Class includes breathwork, physical postures, gong relaxation, and healing meditations.

We will work with the power of our breath, learning multiple breathing techniques which will support us not only in our practice but in our everyday living.

Breathwork can help release built-up tension and pent-up energy as well as create the magic of slowing down time. With the combination of dynamic yogic postures, breathing techniques, and deep meditations, we will improve physical and mental flexibility and build both strength and calm within the nervous system. Some of our long-term goals that will transfer outside of class are to create ease within the challenge, doing without "doing" and moving energy through the body keeping us balanced and happy.
 
This class is open to all levels, beginners and longtime practitioners.
