Explore new ways to move. Build on your experience.
Through yoga and mindful somatic movement, you bring a meditative quality of attention to how a posture or flowing movement feels from within. You begin to sense differences that might otherwise pass unnoticed, including the pleasure of moving with greater ease.
Your nervous system uses this sensory feedback to adjust how you move. With practice, a newly felt possibility can become a more familiar way of moving in everyday life.

Go deeper without working harder
Sundays, 9–10:30 a.m. Eastern · Online via Zoom
October 4–November 22, 2026 · Eight weeks
$128 for the Sunday series · $20 drop-in
Make a little room for yourself on Sunday morning, right from home. For students with some yoga or somatic experience, we spend time with yoga postures and gentle movement variations, attending to sensation and allowing pauses to feel what changes. Going deeper doesn’t have to mean working harder. Sometimes it means giving yourself time to settle in.

About Alan
Alan Franzi, MS, C-IAYT, brings 35 years of experience in yoga and movement therapy to his teaching at Creative Edge Yoga. A certified yoga therapist and movement educator, he draws on that background to help students understand how they move and stay involved in the activities they enjoy.
Alan encourages you to ask questions, pay attention to what you feel, and try things at your own pace. You might notice you’re holding your breath or working harder than you need to. There’s room to learn whether you’re starting out, returning after a break, or building on years of practice.
What Students Experience
Although I have a yoga practice that spans twenty years and a variety of styles, I discover something new and profound every time that I’m in a classroom with Alan Franzi.
