Full yoga practice targeting areas of the body needing strength and recovery from cycling. Participate or observe. Please bring a mat if you are able. (We will have some available as well.)
Bicycling utilizes parts of the body in ways that are different from standing, walking, running, or sitting. With today’s gas prices, more and more people are taking up cycling for transportation and commuting. Yoga can help the body, mind, and spirit cope with the stresses and strains imposed by cycling- by increasing concentration and circulation, building endurance and flexibility, and promoting over-all well-being. A Yoga for Cyclists workshop focuses on those areas of the body specific to cycling. You don’t have to be an experienced yogi or yogini to participate- beginners welcome!
Jenna Lam began my yoga journey as a practice of self-regulation and community care, and over time, it evolved into a deep study of embodied awareness and service. She completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Monarch Yoga Studio from June to August 2025, where I trained in vinyasa, restorative, and trauma-informed approaches. My background blends wellness, social impact, and education. She brings to the mat the same curiosity and compassion that guide her community organizing and storytelling work.
In her class, expect movement, grounding breath, and self-compassion. She hopes students leave feeling more at ease in their bodies and connected to their inner steadiness.
She’s been exploring Wheel Pose (Chakrasana) lately. Opening the heart and shoulders has challenged her to soften into vulnerability and trust the process of releasing what she holds too tightly.
