Our Online Services
While UpLIFT Nola is already an intimate studio with small class sizes, out of an abundance of caution and care, we are temporarily eliminating all in-person services, increasing the complimentary resources that can be shared online, and moving some of our classes and group meditation online.
Monday Group Meditation
Join us for this weekly small group meditation on Mondays at 7 p.m. Led by Alan, this session offers a weekly opportunity to use gentle movement and breath work to aid with stress management and focus. This is a donation based, group session with all donations going to Positive Impact, a non-profit youth community service organization:
Steps to take: 1. Sign up here 2. You will receive a follow up email from the studio with the Zoom link for access 3. On the day and time of the group session, have a chair or cushion on hand, log in and have fun
Saturday Rise and Shine
Join Sophia on Saturdays at 8 a.m. online for a virtual yoga class via Zoom. This is an all-levels, vinyasa flow class. The class is donation-based, so give what you can; and if you can't give, join us anyway.
You must book the class in advance (at least 2 hours) and by booking you acknowledge your agreement with our Waiver of Liability Once you register, you will receive an email with the private invitation to join us on Zoom.
Yoga
The world can be so loud and hectic, but through regular yoga practice you can align and calm your mind, body and spirit. UpLIFT Nola teaches a variety of yoga forms in a non-dogmatic manner that honors and welcomes everyone. From vinyasa, restorative, and yin to hatha and special courses for yoga beginners and kids, we hope you find a practice that meets your needs.
Meditation
Utilizing active yoga postures, breathing techniques and centering methods, our meditation class helps build greater self-awareness and impulse control while allowing students to better manage stress and anxiety. UpLIFT Nola offers a regular weekly group practice as well as specialized training workshops for educators and those working in school settings.
Art
"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." -- Picasso
Remember all the hours you spent as a child coloring and letting your imagination go wild? It's never too late to bring back that feeling with our weekly art classes. Using a non-toxic oil painting method, Peggy (who reclaimed her own passion for art after retiring) leads students through a weekly 2-hour class.
