Get ready to light up your mat and your mood with playful, energizing Vinyasa flow! This class is all about finding your rhythm as we move through dynamic sequences that link breath with movement. Expect a mix of flowing transitions, pranayama (breath work) and lots of creativity to keep things fresh and fun. Yogis will leave feeling strong and balanced. Cultivate inner awareness while building strength and flexibility. Instructor Bio: Carla Bartow (she/her/hers) I first started practicing yoga as an infant at mommy and me yoga. I became a dedicated practitioner in 2012, while I was living in Upstate New York. I came to vinyasa yoga at that time, when I was training for riding century bike rides. I moved to Portland in 2013 to live car-free and I have done so for over a decade now. I have studied yoga in-depth with Audra Carmine from whom I received certification to teach vinyasa yoga. It is my great honor to be a vessel of growth through teaching yoga. Participants are encouraged to bring their own mats and water bottles however we have a few available for community use if needed. Class cost is $15, if money is an issue, please just drop in. No one will be turned away for lack of funds Sign up here: https://communitycyclingcenter.org/get-involved/events-3/

Our instagram is nakedHeartspdx so you can see how we ride. Weekly themed rides. Different ride leaders each week, but you can expect the ride to be social paced (8ish mph), no-drop, safe and welcoming, store stop with safe clean bathroom access and the ride is always a loop. We practice consent and non-violence specially with car interactions, what one ride does affects how all rides get treated. The Mellow Mondays are a space for (new) ride leaders to try out ideas in a very supported environment. You’ll often see Mondays rides appearing again during the warmer riding season. We follow the shift code of conduct and expect everyone to be respectful of themselves and others around them. This is so we can actually relax and have fun and connect with each other in a softer space. This isn’t a sober ride but we ask for moderation to keep the atmosphere relaxed. We recommend Abraham Fixes bikes in N Williams and NomadCycles (e-bike specialist) for repairs/sales and parts. Our friends over at RideSafePDX host regular ride and we’ recommend those as a pleasant warm group to ride with.

Bob Spingler was a beloved employee of Dan & Louis Oyster Bar who sadly passed away late last year following a bike crash on his way home from work at the Dan & Louis Oyster Bar restaurant. Staff at the Oyster Bar miss him greatly and are having a memorial for him there the afternoon of January 30. Bob rode over the Tilikum Crossing on his way home from work, and loved to just hang out on the top of that bridge. Our memorial ride will honor his pastime, riding to the top of the bridge and casting flowers into the water in his memory. Bob was 75 years old and very gregarious, always talked to people, and loved his bicycle.  He rode a cruiser for many years, and later switched to an E-Bike.  He had spent time in many different parts of the US, and lived in Portland for the last ~10 years.  He commuted from Old Town to 89th and Woodstock.  His favorite music was King Crimson (large tattoo) and The Band. He was artistic, and practical.  He not only washed dishes and worked the kitchen at the Oyster Bar, but also did repairs and renovations. He had lots of tattoos.  Lots of large silver cuff bracelets with gemstones.  and a silver lanyard necklace.  His sister said of him "He went to Woodstock in 1969 and never came back". Please join us on this ride to honor Bob's memory.
