Yoni Egg Yoga Workshop for Women
2025-06-19 19:00 - 21:00 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Join us at Thrive Yoga Crested Butte for a deeply nourishing and empowering Yoni Egg Yoga Workshop designed for women who are ready to explore sacred sexuality, energetic healing, and pelvic floor wellness. Rooted in ancient Taoist and Tantric traditions, this workshop invites you to reconnect with your body through the sacred feminine practice of Yoni Egg Yoga.
The yoni egg—a smooth, egg-shaped crystal traditionally used to strengthen the pelvic floor and awaken sexual energy—serves as the centerpiece of this transformative experience. Whether you are completely new to the practice or have worked with a yoni egg before, this workshop will guide you gently and safely into deeper awareness of your sensual and energetic body.
Through a blend of gentle yoga, mindful breathwork, guided ritual, and embodied movement, you’ll awaken the energy of your womb—your center of creativity, intuition, and inner power. The practice fosters pelvic floor strength, emotional release, increased circulation, and enhanced sensitivity. It’s an invitation to return to yourself, honor your sacred anatomy, and cultivate self-love and presence.
What You’ll Experience

Sacred Feminine Flow: Move through a yoga sequence tailored to open the hips, ground your energy, and support the connection to your womb space. These gentle, sensual movements are designed to awaken the body and invite softness and strength into the pelvic floor.
Breathwork and Meditation: Learn breath techniques that activate your root and sacral chakras, calm the nervous system, and build energetic awareness throughout your body.
Yoni Egg Education and Integration: Receive guidance on how to use the yoni egg safely and respectfully within your body. You’ll be supported in understanding the energetic and physical benefits of this ancient practice and how to integrate it into your regular self-care or yoga routine.
Ritual and Reflection: Engage in guided ritual that honors feminine wisdom and creates space for intention-setting, emotional release, and self-healing. This ceremonial aspect creates a sacred container for your personal journey.

Who This Workshop is For
This workshop is open to all women—no prior yoga or yoni egg experience is necessary. It is especially supportive for those looking to:

Strengthen and tone the pelvic floor muscles
Reconnect with feminine energy and sensuality
Release emotional blockages stored in the body
Improve sexual vitality and intimacy
Cultivate self-love, empowerment, and body confidence

What to Bring
Please come dressed in comfortable clothing for gentle movement. You are invited to bring a shawl or skirt to wrap around your hips for added privacy during yoni egg insertion, as well as your own yoni egg and a body-friendly oil (both optional).
Yoni eggs and oil will be available for use or purchase at the studio if you do not have your own.
Privacy and Sacred Space
All yoni egg insertion is done privately and discreetly. There is no nudity or exposure during this workshop. This is a deeply personal practice offered within a safe, respectful, and sacred environment. Thrive Yoga Crested Butte is committed to creating a space where all participants feel fully supported, seen, and honored in their journey.

Iyengar Workshop: Twists
2025-06-08 15:00 - 17:00 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Join us at Thrive Yoga Crested Butte for an immersive exploration of twisting postures in our upcoming Iyengar Yoga Workshop: Twists. This workshop is designed for yogis with at least one year of consistent yoga practice and will guide you into the nuanced world of revolving poses, or twists. Twisting asanas are a foundational aspect of Iyengar Yoga, known for their precision, structural intelligence, and profound physical and energetic benefits.
What to Expect
Twisting poses are more than just spinal movements. In Iyengar Yoga, these asanas are approached with attention to alignment and anatomical integrity. By integrating props—bolsters, blocks, straps, and chairs—we will create a supportive environment that allows each participant to find proper alignment and explore the depth of each posture safely and effectively. Each pose will be broken down methodically, with options for modification to suit individual needs. This workshop is not about intensity—it’s about precision, awareness, and awakening subtle movement patterns.
Why Twist?
Twisting poses offer a wide array of physical and mental benefits:

Spinal Mobility & Health: Twisting stimulates the intervertebral discs and encourages a healthy range of motion.

Digestive Support: Revolving poses gently massage the abdominal organs, stimulating digestion and elimination.
Stress Relief & Nervous System Support: Twists balance the parasympathetic nervous system and relieve tension.

Improved Posture & Core Stability: Twisting activates core musculature, supporting spinal alignment.
Energetic Cleansing: Twists are thought to release emotional and physical blockages, leaving the practitioner feeling refreshed.

Registration
This workshop is limited in capacity to ensure a focused and personalized experience. Early registration is encouraged to secure your spot.
Give your body a fresh perspective and your mind a breath of clarity through the art of twisting. Whether you’re seeking physical renewal, digestive support, or simply a clearer mental space, twisting poses have something powerful to offer. We look forward to sharing the practice with you.

Crystal Bowl Sound Bath
2025-06-03 19:00 - 20:00 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Experience the transformative power of sound with Andrea Ouimet of Alpine Sound Therapy in an immersive sound bath session designed to harmonize your mind, body, and spirit. This meditative journey utilizes the resonant frequencies of crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, and other therapeutic instruments to foster deep relaxation and holistic healing.
What Is a Sound Bath?
A sound bath is a deeply immersive, full-body listening experience that uses therapeutic sound waves to promote relaxation, healing, and mindfulness. Unlike traditional meditation, which often focuses on breath or mantras, sound baths envelop participants in resonant sounds from instruments like singing bowls, gongs, and chimes, encouraging the mind to relax and the body to release tension.
The Instruments: Crystal Singing Bowls and Tuning Forks

Crystal singing bowls, made from pure quartz, emit powerful, pure tones that resonate with the body’s energy centers, or chakras. These vibrations can help clear blockages and restore balance, facilitating a state of harmony and well-being.
Tuning forks, another key instrument in sound therapy, produce specific frequencies that can stimulate healing processes. When activated, they can help reduce stress, alleviate pain, and promote emotional balance by entraining the body’s systems to their natural rhythms.
Benefits of Sound Bath Therapy
Participants in sound bath sessions often report a range of benefits, including:

Deep Relaxation: The soothing sounds can lower heart rate and blood pressure, inducing a state of calm.
Stress Reduction: Sound therapy can help decrease cortisol levels, alleviating stress and anxiety.
Enhanced Sleep Quality: By promoting relaxation, sound baths can improve sleep patterns.
Emotional Release: The immersive experience can facilitate the release of suppressed emotions, leading to emotional clarity.
Improved Focus and Clarity: The meditative state achieved can enhance mental clarity and concentration.

Scientific studies have shown that sound meditation can reduce tension, anxiety, and depression, while increasing spiritual well-being.
What to Expect During the Session
Upon arrival, you’ll be guided to a comfortable position, either lying down or seated, with optional blankets and eye masks to enhance relaxation. The session begins with a brief focus on breath, followed by a progression of sounds from various instruments. These sounds are designed to guide you into a meditative state, allowing for deep relaxation and inner exploration.
Reserve Your Spot
Embark on a journey of sound and healing with Andrea Ouimet. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, emotional balance, or a deeper connection to yourself, this sound bath session offers a sanctuary for rejuvenation. Spaces are limited to ensure an intimate and personalized experience.

Therapeutic yoga is deeply nourishing for all systems of the body—circulatory, lymphatic, endocrine, and importantly the nervous system, bringing about more openness to the body and mind.

2025-05-21 19:00 - 20:15 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Your breath gives you control over your state of mind and your body’s chemistry. Working with your breath can be a transformational practice that reduces stress and anxiety, help to overcome trauma, regulate your nervous system and provide an overall sense of well-being and relaxation.
I will give a full description of what you might expect before we start the practice. It is important to me that you are fully aware of what class will look like and that you know you are in full control of your experience. You will get out of the practice what you are willing to put into it.
I teach circular breath-work or conscious, connected breathing that involves breathing through the mouth in a circular pattern. We will breathe in this way actively for close to 30 minutes or about 6-8 songs. After the active breathing is complete, you will have plenty of time to reflect and be with yourself.
What to bring:

Comfortable clothing that isn’t too tight
Water bottle, as hydration is important
An open mind
A Journal for after class if you wish

We can provide these if you do not bring your own:

Breathwork Journey
2025-03-12 19:00 - 20:30 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
If you’re dealing with stress, a cluttered mind, anger or grief, this deep breathwork meditation is a phenomenal tool to help you clear out that stuck energy and feel more aligned with yourself.
This style of breathwork has a tremendous way of stimulating energy and hormones throughout your body, bringing you into a more introspective, meditative state. Similar to psychedelics, each breathwork journey is different – your body guides you where you need to go on that day, helping you release stagnant energy so you can feel more like your natural self. You may feel a release of energy or emotions, feel a deeper connection to yourself or the world, or you may have revelations and deep insights. You’ll leave feeling lighter in your body, and clearer in your mind.
During this simple 3-part breathwork session, we will be lying down and fully relaxed with eye pillows and blankets. We’ll start the evening with instructions and move into setting intentions as we connect briefly with the group. There will be a small altar in the center of the room where you can place an item you would like to cleanse or use as a dedication. The breathwork journey is guided by Keela, the facilitator, along with intentional music and natural plant aromas to guide you into a deep, safe space.
No experience is necessary.
What to wear and bring:

Comfy, Warm Clothes
Water
Yoga Mat (no worries if you don’t have one, the studio provides them for free)

Optional:

A special item to cleanse or dedicate your journey: an item from nature, a piece of jewelry, a photo, etc. Anything goes!

Therapeutic Yoga Workshop
2025-02-16 15:00 - 17:00 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Date changed from 2/9 to 2/16
In this workshop we will move slowly through a two hour practice based on the principles of therapeutic yoga – using a methodic application of sequences to unwind fascial patterns of holding and pain in the body.
Much of the work is floor-based and passive, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy! This therapeutic style of yoga resets the nervous system, opens the joints, and releases patterns of restriction in the body, using long holds and specific alignment. This is an all-levels class, and everybody – athletes, couch potatoes, young and old, will find this practice accessible and will benefit from it.
This method works deeply with the joints, to return the body to its optimal structure and function, thereby allowing the internal systems to work as efficiently as possible for as long as possible – anti-aging yoga from the inside out. By focusing on the joints instead of stretching the muscles, practitioners can work with the cause behind the symptom.
This inclusive workshop uses simple shapes to create a yoga format accessible to all practitioners regardless of flexibility, strength, age, or experience, and is intended to restore true freedom of movement to the body, and in turn, the mind!

2025-02-12 13:30 - 15:30 | Thrive Yoga Crested Butte, 326 Elk Ave, Crested Butte, CO, 81224, United States
Get to know this amazing muscle that does so much more than flex the hip! Did you
know it attaches to your lower spine, and pierces through your diaphragm! We often
feel it is tight, but that does not necessarily mean it is strong.
If we sit a lot, it is chronically in a passive, shortened position, which does indeed restrict it’s pliability. However leaning on and passively stretching your psoas, say in a lizard/low lunge pose, hasn’t proven to be a long term solution. Come to this workshop and find out why not and explore a possible better solution.
