Connection in Motion: Partner Thai Yoga for Valentines with Mary Belperio
Ditch the traditional dinner date for something that actually feels good. Join us for a grounding afternoon of Partner Thai Yoga—a blend of assisted stretching and mindful touch designed to bring you back to your body and into deeper connection with your partner.

The Vibe:

• Grounded: Use somatic movement to support each other’s weight, find balance, and laugh along the way.
• Slow & Regulated: Focus on rhythmic touch and gentle traction to soothe the body and quiet the mind.
• Safe & Trauma-Informed: A consent-based space that is soulful without being performative.

No experience? No problem. Just bring yourself and your favorite person (partner, BFF, or family member) for an embodied experience you won’t forget.

Vulnerable, emotional vibe here y’all. If that’s not the mood of your season, here is your fair warning.

I found myself dusting the lint off this stupid cloth napkin I was folding for the laundry. Working so hard to make sure it looks pretty and clean. I caught myself thinking of someone (who?) judging.. my napkins. Fear of my *napkins* not being deemed good enough in my own home for wiping dirty fingers and mouths. Where did that pain come from..? (perfection and restaurant work aside..)
~
To be completely honest, I don’t know that it matters anymore - where the wounds came from. I’ve found myself and others spending way too much time over intellectualizing our pain. Do I know that my hyper awareness of how others are thinking and feeling constantly is a protection mechanism I developed from a very, very volatile environment growing up? Of course. How do I turn it OFF. That is my work, my mission.
~
And maybe, just maybe.. if I can figure out some things that have helped me, I can help some other people unwind some twisted wounds too. I can break these struggles and patterns for my babes. Perhaps aligning purpose to my pain can help me learn to love it as much as I love and look forward to the joy.

The winter season is not joyful for everyone. I hear the critics voice in my head more than the cheerleader. She is still fighting very, very hard to be heard. But she is fighting. I love it here but damn it’s hard. I’m just here to say hey.. this is fu**in hard and you are not alone if you feel that way too. I love you. We’re getting through it. Fu**in holidays man.. fu**in eh.
