It’s an opportunity to explore the full terrain of your body mind and breath. By using metaphor, we’ll- informed adjustments, props and a fresh perspective on setting up postures, my hope is that you gain insights that will deepen your ability to have a meaningful conversation with the version of yourself that shows up in the moment. Come play. Come explore. Come engage in the dialogue between the body mind and breath. DM me to schedule a session. 75/hour | $10 off for all service, arts, and wellness industry workers. #yoga #yogapractice #privateyoga #katonahyoga #summer #yogainspo #yogaeverydamday #joy #pranayama #āsana #meditation

Joy makes for a lasting bond 💕✨ How can we make our morning routines and practices more like a play date vs a duty? Compassion for yourself serves you far better. The ability to coax yourself to the finish line is a skill worth exploring. My practice may not always look the the same, but it’s the idea of showing up for yourself, making it sacred, and through exploration, i’m able to find a deeper bond with my myself, for myself. #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #monday #joy #theartistsway #creativity #rituals #morningroutine #homepractice #playdate #mobility #frc #pranayama #yoga #yogainspiration #katonahyoga #nevinesmagic #movementchallenge #movementismedicine #coax #effort #grace #lifelessons #motivation #lila #divineplay #yogateacher #mondaymorning #breathwork #yogamenmonday

Hang too far back, you’re stuck in your past - lean too far forward, you’ll get lost in your future. It’s all about how you mediate from your center, and work through your current circumstances. When you mediate from your center you make the conscious choice to learn from your past, see your vision out in front of you, and navigate using the peripherals so you can enrich this very moment, right here now, right now.

This is the only photo I got from yesterday’s 5 Hour Yoga As Origami yesterday, but I think it says it all. We spent time moving through maps of the body, mind, and breath - practiced how to fold and unfold ourselves like paper, we folded actual paper and made origami cubes, and we spend time learning how to observe patterns in the body. A lot to do in 5 hours, but oh what a joy it was. I always learn something new about myself and the practice when I offer these type of classes. And better yet, a student left saying, “so when can I sign up for the next one?” 💕💕💕 So honored to be a teacher and so grateful to my teachers that have taught me. I say this all the time. I love what I do. And I truly mean it. My schedule is about to shift early June for the summer so I hope I get to see you soon before I lessen my yoga teaching schedule. So come say hi, sign up for a private or a group class in the next couple weeks. I hope you all enjoy your Sunday. And have a great start to your week. 🫶🏻 Teaching schedule through May Mondays 10am | @downtownyogacenterfargo 5:30pm | @yujyogafargo Thursdays 12pm | @downtownyogacenterfargo Saturdays: 9:30am | @yujyogafargo #katonahyoga #fargond #yogalife #yoga #nevinesmagic

I’m so honored to be featured in the May 2026 edition of @spotlightfargo Meet Fargo. There’s something magical about being given an opportunity at the right time. Back in 2021, within the span of six months, an apartment, a full time job, and classes at a yoga studio were all offered to me—and I knew my time in Fargo, and my time building something here, was beginning again. Call it luck, a sign, or synchronicity, but I never imagined that coming back to be a full-time artist and teacher in Fargo, ND would be part of my path. I’m deeply grateful to be doing the work I’m doing, and even more grateful for the community that surrounds me—my friends, family, teachers, students, and collaborators. The physical publication will be out soon, but I wanted to share the four-page article that @brady_drake12 so beautifully shaped from our conversation. I’m creating a lot of exciting and meaningful things here in Fargo. Come experience one of my offerings and see for yourself. #fargond #yogalife #artist #yogainspiration #movementartist

For My Dad — 4 Years ago yesterday my dad left this Earth. Something that I’ve thinking about lately is the many roles he played: Father. Provider. Husband. Brother. Grandfather. Reliable. Alway there for people. Helper. As he got older, I could see the man navigating his own limitations while continuing to serve and be there for his family and those he came in contact with. And also — I wonder what other roles he wish he could have stepped into. What was left unfinished. It makes me wonder… what de he imagine for himself that never had the chance to unfold? He was an amazing carpenter. I remember watching him make these beautiful shelves for my mom’s porcelain figurines. We built our family deck. He built me a fancy tree house, and we together built our three stalled garage. It makes me think of how I want to show up in the world. I don’t want to feel like I’ve left something unfinished, untapped. My dad lived a very full life. I do wish I could have experienced what he would have done after retirement. I love imagining him in his renaissance man era. He would have never called it that but that man had so many skills. I miss him, but I feel him almost everywhere I go. #dad #remember #roles #love #yoga

A quick listen on how metaphor can support the way we explore our practice— how shape and structure can inform its function in the body. This 5-hour Katonah Yoga workshop is built around the theme of Yoga as Origami: how folding and unfolding ourselves into shapes can help us organize and place ourselves in the middle of experience. We’ll explore this through: • a masterclass • body reading • theory • therapeutics + breathwork • hands-on adjustments If you’ve been curious about this work, this is a great place to step in. Early registration ($10 off) ends tomorrow. Yoga As Origami: A 5 Hour Katonah Yoga Module Saturday, May 16 • 1–6pm Yuj Yoga Studio Sign up via my bio 📐💕✨
