Vrinda Priti (Carly Boland)

Advanced Certified Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Vrinda Priti (Carly Boland) is passionate about sharing yoga as a life practice through the method of Jivamukti. She has had the rare opportunity of living with her teachers at the Wild Woodstock Jivamukti Forest Sanctuary, immersed in rich direct transmission that is palpable through her heartfelt teaching.

Serving as a co-creator on the compassionate path to enlightenment, Vrinda Priti’s classes provide a journey for practitioners. Incorporating light on ancient yogic teachings fused with modern application, her classes are known for bringing heartfelt activism, seamless eclectic musicality, chanting, skillful hands-on assists, and a down-to-earth, spiritual yet humor-filled approach to yoga.

Her dynamic Vinyasa sequences draw from her integrative dance, somatic and holistic health background. Her aim in every class is for all involved to leave closer to who they truly are, more of a vibrant, kind, centered, and joyful version of themselves.

She is eternally grateful to her teachers Padma-ji Sharon Gannon and Shri David Life for their endless mentorship, generosity, teachings, wit, and love.

Vrinda Priti (Carly Boland) instructs the following:

Yoga Flow (Jivamukti)

Welcome to a flowing-style yoga class; a practice that weaves yogic philosophy, Sanskrit, anatomy, and skillful hands-on assists with a wide range of eclectic music. The practice is designed not only to make you move, sweat, and reflect, but to also empower fearless curiosity, increase self-acceptance, reconnect you to your humanity, and inspire spiritual activation—all while keeping your sense of humor.

Each class is supported by a monthly theme that interweaves philosophy and spiritual teachings from both modern & ancient yogic texts, chanting Sanskrit mantras, relaxation, and meditation.

Whether you’re a beginner, deciphering the difference between vrksasana (tree) and sirshasana (headstand), or an advanced yogi who can put both feet behind their head, the Jivamukti Flow class welcomes you, as it is open to practitioners of all levels. You work at your own pace, following the teacher’s verbal as well as (optional) hands-on guidance. Many options are offered, so each practitioner can choose at what level they wish to work.

Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga targets the joints, fascia, and connective tissue in order to create more space in the body and a greater range of motion. Yin Yoga unites the Body, Mind, and Breath. Calming the breath allows the body to get quiet, when the body is still, the mind can relax, which calms the entire nervous system. Practicing Yin helps you feel more flexible, peaceful, and refreshed.

Unlike other types of yoga, Yin poses are held for longer periods, allowing the tender connective tissues to strengthen and lengthen. Yin yoga can be done by all types of people at all different levels of experience and flexibility because you rely on your own body’s wisdom to let you know how far to go.

All levels welcome.
