The Pine Practice
Thursday, Dec 4: 6:30-8:30 pm
Pine is a yin-yoga based movement practice that helps regulate the nervous system during perimenopause and menopause. Through movement, breath, and community, Pine helps to reestablish a feeling of home in your changing body.
The menopause transition (from perimenopause to post menopause) asks us for softness, not intensity. Pine’s slow, introspective, regulating nature is the perfect counterbalance to the chaos and dysregulation of hormone depletion.
Join us to ground, balance, move, breathe, soften, and listen to what the body knows. Yoga experience not required. All bodies welcome. Props will be provided.

Gentle Movement + Sound Bath
Tuesday, Dec 9: 7:30-9:00 pm
Give yourself permission to deeply rest your body and mind. This immersive offering combines yoga with the power of sound healing and encourages physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Begin with conscious breathing accompanied by slow, gentle movements. Once our body is more at ease and our mind less busy, we then drop in for a 45 minute Sound Bath. This practice is one that will help restore your inner light and come back home to yourself, your true nature.
How does a sound bath work? The sound waves help relax muscles, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep quality. When you listen to soothing sounds, you enter a state of relaxation called alpha brain wave activity. Alpha waves are associated with deep concentration and creativity. This makes them ideal for creative endeavors, including writing and painting. Beta waves are minimized during this state, which means you become less aware of external stimuli. You may feel relaxed, focused, and even sleepy.
Sound baths allow you to completely immerse yourself in the experience of healing vibrations. As you listen to the music, your body relaxes, your mind lets go of thoughts and you enter into a deep a state of calm.
Everyone is welcome. No experience necessary. Come as you are.

Community Satsang
Thursday, Dec 18: 7:00-8:30 pm
What is Destiny? Is it a fixed path, written in the stars…or is it something we co-create through our choices, our presence, and our willingness to align with divine rhythm? Ins this opening Satsang, we will begin to explore destiny not as something static or predetermined—but as a living tapestry woven through our soul’s journey. We’ll touch into the four aims of life in the Vedic tradition—Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha.
We'‘ll look at how destiny is revealed not just in our Jyotish chart, but through the body (hasta samudrika), the breath, the name we carry, the foods we eat, and the way we nurture what we love. Each of these is a mirror—reflecting the shape of our becoming.
And we’ll begin our deeper journey into the Moon and the Nakshatras—the lunar portals that map the emotional, creative, and karmic landscape of our life. These stars whisper the soul’s calling and give us practical tools to align our inner world with outer manifestation.
This is not a lecture—it’s a sacred inquiry. Come as. you are, and enter the conversation your soul has been waiting to have.

Awakening the Diaphragm / an exploration of freediving breathing techniques
Thursday, Jan 29: 7:00-8:00 pm
Unlock your breath. Calm your mind. Dive deeper.
Join us for a focused session on diaphragmatic breathing—learning to isolate, stretch, and activate the most powerful muscle for breath control. We’ll explore specific stretches to release tension, increase flexibility, and help you fully access your lungs. You’ll also be introduced to the freediving “breathe-up” technique: a calming breath pattern that lowers your heart rate and prepares your body for stillness, both in and out of the water. We’ll also explore the art of breath-hold (static apnea) and learn how to tap into the mammalian dive reflex. Perfect for yogis, breathwork practitioners, and ocean lovers alike.
Tracy Wollschlager, founder of Freedive Key West, is a certified FII Freediving Instructor. Her journey with the ocean began in childhood and has since evolved into a lifelong passion for freediving, marine exploration, and holistic living. With over a decade of freediving experience, Tracy has explored the waters of her backyard and some of the most beautiful underwater destinations around the world.
In addition to freediving, Tracy is a devoted yoga practitioner, and her practice deeply informs her teaching. She integrates yoga’s principles of breath awareness, mindfulness, and physical balance into every course—creating a calm, grounded, and focused environment for her students. Her philosophy emphasizes safety, respect for marine life, and a meaningful connection with the underwater world.
No experience necessary. Just bring your breath.
