Lavender Reset Yoga Experiences with Nicole Rippy or Saskia Meckman.
Through the lens of Kaiut Yoga, Nicole will guide you through simple, accessible movements designed to support your joints, calm your nervo
us system, and create the conditions for lasting change. This is not about pushing or fixing--it's about listening, allowing, and creating safety in the body. Step into a space where your body can finally exhale. Surrounded by the soft scent of lavender and the quiet rhythm of nature, this gentle, restorative experience invites you to slow down, reconnect, and return to yourself. Whether you're feeling stiff, overwhelmed, or simply ready for a reset, this practice meets you exactly where you are. To close, you’ll create your own lavender ritual sachet—a simple, sensory anchor you can take home, reminding your body how to return to this state anytime.
You don’t need experience.
You don’t need flexibility.
Your body already knows the way.
Just bring your water and come as you are. Nicole provides mats and bolsters. There’s space for you here.

Saskia Meckman (she/her) has been a Registered Yoga Teacher, since 2003. Saskia holds certifications in Kripalu Yoga, Prenatal Yoga, Radiant Child Yoga, Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) Yoga, and Yin Yoga. Over the years, she has studied meditation and mindfulness, weaving these practices into her Mindful Yin Yoga class. Join Saskia Meckman under the shade of the maple tree for two styles of soothing and stretchy yoga:
Mindful Yin Yoga on Saturday - a slow-paced form of yoga where passive and longer-held positions allow for participants to surrender in each pose, using stillness as a doorway to both physical release and mental calmness. This very gentle practice encourages mindfulness and deep relaxation, while nourishing the connective tissues within the body.
Slow Flow Yoga on Sunday - a gentle form of yoga that focuses on alignment and breath allowing for intentional transitions and deep mind-body awareness. This practice will stretch and strengthen your entire body while creating space for stillness. Gentle seated postures ground your body followed by standing poses to build strength and balance.
To close, you’ll create your own lavender ritual sachet—a simple, sensory anchor you can take home, reminding your body how to return to this state anytime. Both classes are accessible to all levels, newcomers to advanced students. Bring your mat and water bottle.
