11th Devi/ Divya Shakti Retreat, Akron, OH
Ursula had the privilege of attending and instructing yoga asana & pranayama classes at the 11th Devi Retreat, hosted by Chinmaya Mission Niagara and Chinmaya Cleveland in Akron, OH last week.
Here are some impressions of this 4-day retreat, the 80 incredible women who attended, and the retreat center, Life Gurukula. You can sense the serenity, warmth, grace, and joy through these impressions.
The program was exceptional, addressing the outer world with workshops on self-defense, sustainable living, women’s health, and human trafficking, as well as the inner world with inspiring stories, talks, and discussions, all centered around the theme: Finding your Love.
I taught the yoga asana and pranayama classes in the new Mandir, a former chapel, and they were particularly meaningful and powerful to me – uplifting, peaceful, and such a joy to teach. I hope you can absorb some of the energy through these pictures.
Thank you to our guides, Vivekji, Vilasiniji, Shashikalaji, and the amazing organizers, for allowing me to attend and be of service.
And: you can join next year!
Aum Shant Shanti Shanti.

Yoga at the 25th Annual Serenity Weekend
at the Hard Rock Hotel, Daytona Beach
We were honored to host an impromptu 7 AM yoga class during the 25th Annual Serenity Weekend Women’s Conference, held September 12–14, 2025. Originally planned as a peaceful sunrise session overlooking the ocean, we quickly adapted when rain moved us indoors.
Even as a storms threatened to roll in outside, we turned inward—exploring grounding, centering, and cultivating calm amidst life’s inevitable shifts.
A heartfelt thank you to the 17 amazing women (and one sweet baby!) who showed up with open hearts—to breathe, move, and share in community.
We’re already looking forward to flowing together again next year—rain or shine!

Full Moon Yoga & Drum Circle
Hosted by Aum Shanti Yoga & In Joy Drumming
Beautiful evening with beautiful souls!
Thank you to everyone who came out for Full Moon Yoga & Drum Circle
Under the glow of the full moon we had an unforgettable evening of movement, rhythm, and community connection. This special gathering weaved together the grounding energy of yoga and the uplifting power of drumming—an invitation to realign, release, and rejoice.
We started the evening off with a heart-opening Full Moon Yoga flow led by Mindy / Aum Shanti Yoga, designed to cultivate balance, clarity, and deep inner peace.
Then, Sandra / In Joy Drumming led us into a spirited Drum Circle, where explored different rhythms, moving our bodies and dancing under the rising moon, and we co-created rhythm individually and as one community as we celebrated the lunar energy.
Overall, thank you to everyone who joined us for reflection, intention-setting, and connection beneath the luminous full moon.

Fall Equinox / 108 Sun Salutations
Wednesday September 21st, 2023
6:30am @ HardRock Hotel Daytona
Lightning far away out at sea, stars above us just before daybreak and later a beautiful sunrise. That was the setting for the 108 Sun Salutations.
I know… it is slightly crazy to get up that early and do something as exhausting as that. But it was absolutely worth the effort.
For everyone who missed it: There will be another opportunity at the winter solstice…
