Yoga Deep Dive: Finding Balance Workshop

Have You Noticed…

A Little Wobble Can Change How You Move Through Your Day

Maybe you've caught yourself reaching for a wall you didn't used to need. Maybe stairs feel less certain, or getting up from a low chair takes a second more than it used to. Maybe you've started to think about your balance in a way you never had to before.

You are not alone — and you are not stuck.

Balance isn't just something you either have or don't have. It's a skill your body can rebuild with the right guidance, patience, and support. This workshop is designed to give you exactly that.

No advanced poses. No pressure to perform. Just gentle, practical work that helps you feel steadier — starting the moment you leave the mat.

Is This For You?

Yes — Especially If You've Thought…

  • ✦ "My balance is already too poor for yoga."
  • ✦ "I'm afraid I'll fall or embarrass myself."
  • ✦ "I'm not flexible or strong enough."
  • ✦ "I'm too old to improve my balance."
  • ✦ "I don't want to do difficult poses."

This workshop was designed for you. Chairs, walls, and props will be available throughout. You'll move at your own pace, and every exercise can be modified for your body. Come exactly as you are.

Meet Your Guide

Led by Mallory Riess

I believe yoga belongs to everyone — regardless of age, flexibility, or experience. My teaching is rooted in warmth, patience, and a deep respect for the intelligence of the body.

In this workshop, I'll guide you through practical, accessible techniques that strengthen the parts of your body responsible for balance — and help you feel steadier and more confident in everyday life.

I teach at Love Roots Yoga Shala in Wrightwood, CA and online through Spirit and Wellness Collective.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

My balance already feels shaky — is this workshop safe for me?
Yes. This workshop is specifically designed for people who feel unsteady. Chairs, walls, and props will be available throughout, and every exercise can be done with support. You'll never be asked to balance without help unless you feel completely ready.
I've never done yoga before. Will I be lost?
Not at all. No previous yoga experience is required. Everything will be explained clearly and demonstrated. You'll be guided step by step in a welcoming, judgment-free environment.
What if I can't get down to the floor easily?
That's completely okay. Much of the work can be done seated in a chair or standing with support. Please let Mallory know before the workshop about any specific needs — we'll make sure you're comfortable and supported.
Am I too old to improve my balance?
Absolutely not. Balance is a skill your body can rebuild at any age. The strength, coordination, and awareness we'll practice have been shown to help people feel steadier and more confident regardless of where they're starting from.
What should I bring and wear?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in easily. Bring water and a yoga mat if you have one (extras are available). Props will be provided.
