Reclaiming the Voice: A Breathwork Journey with Ani
What parts of yourself have you learned to quiet in order to belong? Join Ani Djirdjirian for a 90-minute Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey exploring the relationship between your body, your breath, and your voice. Through guided movement, meditation, and breathwork, you'll have space to slow down, turn inward, and explore the patterns that shape how you express yourself, connect with others, and show up in the world.
As we approach the holiday season, this journey offers an opportunity to reconnect with yourself before stepping back into familiar dynamics and expectations. Whether you're navigating a transition, longing to express yourself more freely, or simply curious about what you might discover when you give yourself space to feel, you're welcome here.
We'll close with a group integration reflection, allowing time to process your experience and connect with others.
No prior breathwork experience is necessary. Come as you are, and give yourself permission to listen inward.
Conscious Connected Breathwork is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or have certain other medical conditions.

About Ani: Ani Djirdjirian (she/they), founder of Awaken With Ani, is a first-generation Armenian American singer/songwriter, somatic breathwork practitioner, speaker, and co-host of Healing Loudly: The Podcast. Growing up navigating heritage and assimilation in New York City, Ani came to understand how inherited patterns of fear, shame, and survival live in the body and shape our voices, self-expression, and sense of belonging. With an MSW and over a decade of study in trauma, somatics, breathwork, and the multidisciplinary applications of the voice, she brings together these elements to guide people back home to their truest selves.
Ground. Rise. Release. with Sonia
A 2 hour workshop built around inversions, no need to fly in this one! Weβll work on drills and exercises to build strength and confidence before going upside down. Woven throughout, weβll bring in yoga philosophy, made interactive rather than a lecture, exploring ideas like steadiness without strain, and practicing without needing to get it perfect. The goal is to connect what weβre building physically to how we hold control (and let go of it) off the mat too.
Youβll leave stronger and more confident upside down, with a little more ease about the practice of letting go, on and off the mat.

Yin x Sound Meditation with Sam W.
Your edges arenβt limitations. Theyβre thresholds.
Through a series of long-held, prop-heavy postures cradled by transcendent sound, youβll be invited into a deep, receptive state as you find your edges, or perceived limitations, and feel them begin to move.
Yin yoga builds a quiet heat in the body, unwinding the places where tension and stagnant energy settle. Sound creates a field of resonance that moves through muscle, fascia and bone, and then further, into breath, nervous system and the subtler currents of the mind. Edges that once felt fixed begin to soften, guiding you into attunement with your lightest, most liberated form.
Expect a deep and juicy metamorphosis and walk away with a reinspired relationship to yourself.
About Sam: Sam Wilensky is a teacher of yin yoga, yoga nidrΔ, meditation and sound, and a lifelong student of the art of moving slowly and listening deeply.
She brings a decade of teaching and over 1,000 hours of training to the room, along with years of devotion to Tibetan Buddhist study that quietly shapes everything she teaches and lives by. Her work is born from the steady conviction that softening is a practice and ease can change us as much as effort ever could.
Samβs classes pair long, supported holds with the resonance of sound and music, giving the body time and the nervous system a foundation for softening. She teaches with precision and play, guided by the inquiry: who do we become when weβre completely at ease?
