What happens when the postures that used to excite you start to feel boring? What happens when a routine starts to lose its spark?

This week in our Off the Mat conversation, Kyle and David explore finding strength in repetition. They discuss why showing up to the same practice, the same pose, and the same routine can be the most advanced thing you do—even when it doesn't feel that way.

In this conversation, they explore:

On the mat: How boredom shows up in practice, why staying with the "simple" variation is sometimes the most advanced choice, and the difference between listening to your body and actually responding to it

Off the mat: Building sustainable routines, the pattern of abandoning practices right when they start to work, and how small consistent actions—both positive and negative—compound over time

What they're trying this week: Staying curious when boredom hits, evaluating whether routines still serve their original purpose, and practicing "being in awe, always."

Whether you're navigating an injury, questioning your morning routine, or showing up for what matters in your community, this conversation is about the power of consistency without rigidity—and knowing when to stay versus when to let go.

Little by little, a little becomes a lot.

This 30-minute flow explores the power of repetition—not just in your physical practice, but in how you show up for yourself consistently. We'll move through familiar poses with fresh intention, building strength through repeated effort rather than forcingourselves toward perfection.

Class starts at 5:55

Expect: Sun Salutation variations with progressive add-ons, Crescent Lunge sequences with twists, Side Plank, and grounding hip openers to close.

The invitation: Accept where you are today. Let go of attachment to how you think you should feel or look in the poses, and instead simply be present with what is. The strongest foundation isn't built in one dramatic moment—it's built through small, repeatable actions that compound over time.

In this Off the Mat episode, Kyle and David explore how yoga practice patterns show up in daily life. Last week's class focused on building from what's already there—finding what's strong and stable before jumping into fixing mode. This week, they discuss where that same pattern appears off the mat.

Kyle and David share personal experiences with constantly fixing things—in their yoga practice, at work, in relationships—before acknowledging what's already working. They explore why we default to noticing what's wrong, how cultural conditioning shapes this pattern, and what shifts when you start with your foundation first.

Topics covered:

• How the "fixing mindset" shows up in yoga practice and daily life
• Why we notice problems before strengths
• The role of capitalism and productivity culture in self-criticism
• Practical experiments for building from what's already working
• Applying yoga philosophy (aparigraha, non-grasping) to work and relationships

This is a conversation about pattern recognition and self-awareness, not prescriptive advice. Whether you're a yoga practitioner, yoga teacher, or someone interested in mindful living and personal development, this episode offers insights into how physical practice translates to everyday experiences.

Beginner-friendly yoga practice for stability and self-awareness.

What if the foundation you're looking for is already there?

This 30-minute slow flow yoga class with Kyle explores building from what's already stable instead of starting with what needs fixing. Through foundational poses like low lunge, crescent lunge, and warrior variations, you'll practice naming what's working first: the strength in your legs, the steadiness of your breath, the ground beneath you. Everything else builds from there.

This audio-only yoga session moves through gentle spinal warm-ups, sun salutations, and foundational standing poses with progressive variations before settling into supine twists and a restorative closing. Perfect for home yoga practice, mindful movement, or nervous system regulation.

You'll need a yoga mat and optionally a block or pillow for supported twist.

This episode pairs with Off the Mat: Building Foundations, releasing next Thursday, where Kyle and David explore how the pattern of "fixing first" shows up at work, in relationships, and in how we approach change.

You don’t have to start over.

You can simply start right here.

This 30-minute, beginner-friendly vinyasa flow is built around a simple but powerful idea: begin where you are. Not where you think you should be. Not where you were last year. Just here.

David guides you through an energizing, heat-building practice rooted in foundational poses with plenty of space to modify, explore, and listen to your body. Expect breath-to-movement Sun A and Sun B flows, strong standing postures, and a slow, grounding finish that invites you to soften rather than strive.

We open with a conversation about New Year’s pressure, resolutions, and why intention often serves us better than drastic change. After Savasana, stay for the Off the Mat Chat, where Kyle and David explore what it really means to begin again—without erasing your past, forcing reinvention, or pretending you’re starting from scratch.

This practice is an invitation to meet yourself honestly, use the wisdom you already have, and remember: You don’t have to start over. You can start right here.

Explore the fifth Yama, Aparigraha (non-grasping), through a grounded 25-minute audio yoga class focused on static holds and conscious release. Kyle guides you through mindful movement designed to reveal where you're holding unnecessary tension—in your jaw, shoulders, hips, and breath—and invites you to practice softening without collapsing.

This screen-free hatha yoga session uses longer holds in poses like Warrior II, Extended Side Angle, and supported Bridge to help you notice the difference between engaged strength and excessive effort. Learn to grip less and experience more, both on and off the mat.

What You'll Need: Yoga mat, optional block or pillow for supported Bridge pose

What You'll Practice: Standing poses, lunges, twists, gentle hip openers, restorative bridge, ending in Shavasana

Off the Mat: David and Kyle discuss what changes when we loosen our grip on relationships, expectations, and outcomes—and how awareness, response, and trust create space for fuller experiences in daily life.

We continue our New Beginnings season by exploring one of the most universal parts of starting fresh: change. This 30-minute slow-flow class invites you to notice how each moment shifts and how your breath can support you through every transition.

Co-teachers David Stevens and Kyle Wilman open with a conversation about meeting change with curiosity and presence. Then David guides you through an all-levels flow filled with familiar shapes, steady pacing, and a special focus on the movements between poses. Expect smooth transitions, mindful breath, and space to feel how each round of the sequence lands a little differently.

After Savasana, join us for an Off the Mat Chat where we talk about applying these ideas to real life, from navigating seasonal shifts to moving through personal change with openness and ease.

New beginnings become more meaningful when we learn to flow with change rather than brace against it. This class helps you practice exactly that.

We're kicking off the New Beginnings season with something most of us skip right past: the pause. This beginner-friendly yoga class explores what happens when you intentionally slow down before moving forward—in your body and in your life.

Co-teachers Kyle Wilman and David Stevens open with a conversation about why pausing matters at the start of something new, then Kyle guide's you through an audio yoga practice built around intentional stillness and mindful movement. Expect breath-focused holds, grounded transitions, and space to notice what's actually present before rushing into the next thing.

After Savasana, we close with an "Off the Mat Chat" reflection where you can realistically build micro-pauses into your day—getting out of bed, sitting at your desk, before hitting "send." Small moments that calm your nervous system and create choice.

This episode opens a new chapter for The Yoga Podclass—one rooted in fresh energy, honest reflection, and a renewed commitment to community. Kyle returns after some time of recalibration and is joined by fellow teacher and longtime friend, David Stevens. Together, they explore what it means to begin again, both in practice and in life.

They speak to the way yoga evolves with us—how it grounds us through change, deepens our self-understanding, and continually invites us back to presence. With a new format blending conversation, practice, and “off the mat” reflections, this season offers a more integrated, real-world approach to yoga.

It’s a gentle reminder that starting fresh isn’t about perfection—it’s about showing up, reconnecting, and letting your practice meet you exactly where you are.

Our first class will be released on Thursday, Nov 20.

This class guides you through a gentle heart-opening vinyasa flow, perfect for beginners and anyone looking to cultivate self-compassion, openness, and mobility in the shoulders and chest. This slow, intentional practice helps release tension, improve posture, and deepen the connection between breath and movement.

Whether you're new to yoga or seeking a relaxing, accessible flow, this class will leave you feeling light, open, and refreshed. Stay tuned for the next episode, where we’ll explore intermediate heart-opening postures to build on today’s foundation.
