COUPLES ABHYANGA
Zaidy Charrón and Matthew Sabatino
Sunday, February 15 | 7:30–9:30 PM | @ Sandhya Yoga
$40
Ayurvedic practitioners Zaidy Charrón and Matthew Sabatino for a nourishing evening dedicated to the art of partner abhyanga—the traditional Ayurvedic practice of full-body oil massage. In this two-hour experiential workshop, partners will learn how to offer and receive abhyanga as a ritual of care, presence, and connection. Guided step by step, you’ll explore the use of warm herbal oils and marma points (vital energy centers of the body) to calm the nervous system, soften muscle tension, and support the free flow of energy through both physical and subtle channels.
Abhyanga is known to ground the body, settle the mind, improve circulation, digestion, and sleep, and restore a sense of safety and ease. When practiced with a partner, it becomes a powerful way to cultivate trust, deepen intimacy, and strengthen subtle bonds through intentional touch. This workshop is designed for partners of all kinds—romantic partners, friends, or loved ones—who wish to learn a meaningful, therapeutic practice they can bring into their home. No prior massage or Ayurvedic experience is required. All bodies are welcome. Touch is taught with respect, consent, and clear guidance throughout the evening.

His clinical approach draws from Ayurveda as well as Sowa Rigpa, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and herbal lineages of the Americas. He co-founded Oso Botanicals with the intention of incorporating traditional healing wisdom with modern research and understanding to create products that impact people’s lives. He insists on looking at the impact every ingredient used has on the environment, and on crafting medicine from the heart.
Self Care for Your Dosha Type
SELF CARE FOR YOUR DOSHA TYPE
with Zaidy Charrón
Friday, February 20 | 6:00–9:30 PM | @ Sandhya Yoga
$45
Ayurvedic self care begins with understanding how constitution, environment, and daily rhythms interact to influence balance. In this experiential workshop, participants will explore the qualities of the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—and how these energies express themselves in the body, nervous system, and lived experience. Rather than focusing on generalized wellness practices, this workshop offers an Ayurvedic framework for choosing supportive rituals, movement, and lifestyle rhythms that are appropriate for your dominant dosha and current state of balance. Emphasis is placed on working skillfully with seasonal influence, daily cycles, and individual tendencies. Through discussion, reflection, and gentle embodied practices, participants will learn how to recognize signs of imbalance and respond with clarity—refining self care as a responsive, cyclical practice rather than a fixed routine. Some prior knowledge of Ayurveda is recommended. Participants are encouraged to complete a basic dosha assessment in advance to support clarity and application during the workshop.

Intro to Ayurveda
INTRO TO AYURVEDA
with Zaidy Charron
Friday, February 6 | 6:00–9:30 PM | Sandhya Yoga
$45
Ayurveda offers a cyclical framework for understanding the natural rhythms that shape our bodies, minds, and practices. In this introductory workshop, yoga teachers will explore the foundational principles of Ayurveda with an emphasis on seasonal awareness, elemental balance, and how cycles—daily, seasonal, and life-stage—express themselves uniquely in each individual. Together, we’ll study the doshas and elements as living patterns rather than fixed types, learning how to recognize tendencies that shift with climate, time of year, and internal state. This lens supports more skillful choices in practice: when to stabilize, when to build heat, when to soften, and when to conserve. The workshop focuses on applying Ayurvedic principles to yoga teaching—supporting teachers in choosing appropriate practices, pacing, and emphasis for themselves and their students based on season, environment, and constitution. Rather than prescribing formulas, Ayurveda becomes a way of refining perception and cultivating responsiveness in teaching. No prior experience with Ayurveda is required.

108 Pranams for the Winter Solstice
Sunday, December 21st | 12:30–3:00 PM with Devon Sweeney & Zaidy Charrón
All levels welcome.
The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year—a sacred juncture where darkness and light meet, inviting us into the stillness at the heart of all transformation. This ritual practice of 108 pranams becomes a moving meditation, a rhythmic bowing to the inner flame that sustains life through the quiet of winter.
Guided by Devon Sweeney and Zaidy Charrón, we will journey through cycles of prostration and prayer, exploring the devotional essence of pra-nam—to bow to the life force within and around us. As we surrender into each gesture, we awaken humility, strength, and reverence for the return of the light. Supported by breath, rhythm, and intention, this practice becomes an embodied ceremony of renewal—an honoring of what has been, and a welcoming of what is yet to emerge.
Come to move, to bow, and to remember the warmth that endures in the heart of stillness.
