At the sacred crossroads of Ayurveda and the chakra system lies a map of your elemental nature and deeper gifts. These sister sciences illuminate the subtle and physical dimensions of who we are — revealing the intelligence woven through body, energy, and spirit.
Rooted in the wisdom of the five elements, Ayurveda expresses itself through the doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — the energetic blueprint through which we live our embodied lives. Each dosha holds profound strengths: Vata’s visionary creativity and intuition, Pitta’s radiant courage and transformative clarity, Kapha’s steady devotion and deep compassion.
When these elemental forces are explored alongside the chakras — the energetic centers of consciousness within the subtle body — we awaken a powerful understanding of ourselves. We begin to experience our constitution as a pathway toward healing, integration, and the ignition of our most radiant self.
Our time together will begin with a gentle, accessible overview of both systems, then unfold into slow, intentional movement, meditation, and reflection to embody your innate strengths. Open to all levels, bodies, and beings. Come ready to move slowly, listen deeply, and reconnect with your inner brilliance.
What if your yoga mat was a clinical tool for cellular healing? Join functional medicine practitioner and immunological specialist Dr. Mitchell Rasmussen for a groundbreaking keynote that explores how yoga influences the nervous system, immune response, and cellular signaling. As the co-founder of The Facility Denver, Mitchell specializes in guiding care for individuals with complex, chronic conditions who have often "tried everything" without lasting results.
Moving far beyond traditional chiropractic care, Mitchell bridges cutting-edge biochemistry with timeless embodied practice. In this illuminating talk, he invites us to stop viewing yoga as a reactionary fitness routine for when we get sick, and instead recognize it as a foundational primary care practice for long-term health. Grounded in his three core pillars: Empowerment, Education, and Empathy, this session strips away the medical jargon to help you understand your own unique physiology. Walk away with a personalized, science-backed perspective on your practice and the actionable tools needed to work with your body instead of against it.
Modern yoga and wellness environments often extract from Indigenous cultures without fully understanding the histories, systemic harms, and deep ethical responsibilities that come with those practices. This vital workshop invites educators into a grounded, human conversation about cultural reverence—exploring how to move, speak, and teach in ways that honor Indigenous peoples while actively reducing harm.
Led by Sequoia Garza-Keith, a mixed Indigenous practitioner and educator, this session unpacks how Indigenous traditions have been historically criminalized and appropriated, and how those realities echo in today's studios. Rather than centering shame, this workshop emphasizes curiosity, humility, and practical toolkits for navigating nuance with genuine care.
Core Curriculum Competencies:
Land Acknowledgments: Learn precisely when, why, and how to deliver a meaningful land acknowledgment that moves beyond corporate performance.
Inclusive Space-Holding: Understand how to respectfully engage with Indigenous traditions under the assumption that Indigenous people are actively present in your class.
Accountability Over Paralysis: Master specific tools to navigate linguistic or cultural mistakes with transparent accountability rather than defensiveness or shutting down.
Lineage Ethics: Connect Western yoga ethics back to a living lineage of responsibility, relationship, and respect, rather than extraction.
Being rich isn’t about how much you have; it’s about how fully you live. Join elite corporate leader turned spiritual guide, author, and FEROZ founder AJ Bishop-Andrews for a powerful, paradigm-shifting keynote presentation that completely flips the script on female wealth.
For more than two decades, AJ climbed the highest rungs of senior banking leadership at JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Key Private Bank. From the outside, her life looked flawlessly successful, stable, and secure. On the inside, she carried a quiet, persistent truth that many high-achieving women secretly hold: this version of success no longer fits.
Drawing directly from the core themes of her bestselling book, Rich Like Her, AJ maps out the essential seasons that shape a woman’s sense of worth: the exhausting season of performance, the disruptive season of reckoning, and the triumphant season of reclaiming your inner authority. Merging her executive finance acumen with her 25+ years as an E-RYT 500 yoga teacher, AJ delivers a masterclass in embodied leadership and life transitions. This talk will give you the practical frameworks and radical self-trust needed to stop performing a life that looks good on paper, and start living one that feels profoundly true to your soul.
In the blink of an eye, Abigail went from teaching yoga to relearning how to walk. After a cerebellar stroke in 2012, she discovered that the relationship you have with your body shapes the entire quality of your life. That season redefined her understanding of resilience. It’s not about pushing harder or chasing perfection. It’s choosing to adapt to challenges without giving up on yourself. Yoga became her way to practice resilience by transforming physical loss into whole-body living. In this keynote, Abigail shares a framework for rebuilding body trust after physical trauma, plus practical ways teachers and students can make yoga more accessible across abilities.
