YOGA IN A HAYLOFT?
Practice yoga to the sounds of munching horses and that infamous smell all true horse people love. This unique class meets in the upstairs hayloft of Double S Quarter Horses, a beautiful training and lesson facility in Bow, WA. Sue Sultze and Tom Pasma have graciously opened this space where horse enthusiasts can meet for a fun, non-intimidating, riding-inspired yoga practice led by Jessie Tierney, Equestrian of 19 years and Registered Yoga Instructor.

THE CLASS
Horse lovers will learn to unite with their breath and balance their bodies, fostering flexibility, balance, strength, and ease of movement. The practice will also attune the mind, helping participants sharpen their focus and deepen their ability to communicate with their equine (and human) friends. Jessie leads an alignment-based, intuitive class, responding to the needs and concerns of participants, offering hands-on adjustments and variations that suit each practitioner’s needs. You don’t have to be a pretzel to do yoga! Learn more about Jessie and her approach to the teaching of yoga here.

ATTIRE
While it is possible to practice yoga in boots and jeans (or jodhpurs), it is usually more comfortable to wear clothing that does not restrict movement, such as sweat pants or workout clothes (or even your breeches if they’re stretchy). If you do show up in Wranglers, however, you won’t be turned away. You should be able to sit with some semblance of crossed legs and lift your arms overhead comfortably in your clothes. The yoga practice is done barefoot, without socks (so your feet don’t slip off the yoga mat).

EQUIPMENT
Please bring your own yoga mat if you have one.  Jessie will provide mats, blocks, and straps if you don’t have them. Please feel free to bring your own supplies, including a blanket that can be rolled or folded for use as a bolster. The practice is held in a hayloft, which is something to keep in mind when the weather is acting particularly Northwestern.

JESSIE & HAYLOFT YOGA
Yoga gave Jessie the same type of emotional and physical benefits that horseback riding had given her for years when she discovered this powerful practice during college. While she didn’t have the resources to ride in Chicago during school, she could dedicate a few evenings a week to her yoga practice. Once Jessie graduated and started riding again, she recognized that despite her time out of the saddle, she was a more balanced, focused, and effective equestrian. Yoga helped Jessie not only get her long-distance horse fix, it made her a better rider. She is thrilled about the opportunity to share the profound benefits of a regular yoga practice through Hayloft Yoga.
