We were thrilled to partake in our fave combo — yoga and running — for the second summer in a row at Oiselle Birdcamp last month. Our gals Bree and Lulu took the #resetrevolution to Leavenworth, WA, for a long weekend of running, training, teamwork, laughs, food, and of course plenty of unstiffening hips and hamstrings with our running hOMegirls...
Read MoreLong before the Reset Revolution spread to the UK or Jasyoga Video had launched, we had a hOMegirl across the pond, thanks to Twitter. Runner Laura Stewart was one of our early believers in London, and since we’ve started waving the Union Jack, she’s been one of our #hitreset regulars. We’ve been inspired by her passion for the sport and she’s always down for a post-run beer and burger (a girl after our own heart).

The first time I rolled up to the Nest to teach Sally & co. some Jasyoga for Runners, we didn't know much about each other. They were yoga rookies (and skeptics) and I, well, put it this way: I didn't even know who Lauren Fleshman is. But by the end of that first hour together, I had fallen head over heels in love with the sisterhood of the bird — women everywhere who "Go Fast, Take Chances." Since then, we’ve shared countless hamstring stretches, miles, shenanigans, burgers, beers, and laughs. Thinking about where we’ve been over the last few years gives me goosebumps because I know that now we’re on a whole new starting line.

Read MoreYoga has been making me stronger, calmer, more content, and more in tune with myself for the past five years. It has has made me a better human being and continues to do so every time I take a deep breath in... and a slow breath out...
Read More“Am I going to be a vegetable?” Those were the first words I mustered to the ER nurse hovering over the stretcher. The reason I asked was that I couldn’t remember the past 45 minutes and was worried my brain was scrambled.
Read MoreThe light is dimming. The rain (and snow!) is falling. The fires are crackling. This time of year invites a change of pace. The energy and buzz of the summer has faded and the streets are vacating as people start hibernating. Every year during this transition, I pause to reacquaint myself with the idea of “home.” Yes, there are kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms. But beyond the physical construct of our houses, what does “home” really represent? Safety? Freedom? Comfort? Belonging?
Read MoreWe're thrilled to welcome longtime hOMegirl Anna Radford to Team Jasyoga as our newest coach. After several years of scheming about future collaboration while she was posted in Salt Lake City, the Seattle native is back in the Northwest and ready to spread the Reset Revolution. As a lifelong athlete, Anna brings a unique perspective to the mat — helping you to keep it real and optimize the potential for your strength to be more graceful...

Read MoreA marathon is something I’ve always wanted to do. This year, I turned 30 and decided it was time.
Read MoreTaking a step back from teaching during this transitional phase — from full-time student to full-time nurse — of my life has given me quite the gift of space. In this space, I’ve had more time for my own yoga practice, and more time to reflect on the themes offered up to me by my teachers and teammates.
