Practice that gives you time to arrive.

Steady Practice is a 75-minute, all-levels Hatha yoga class for people who want to move, breathe, and practice attention without having to perform.

We work with gentle flow, longer holds, breathwork, mantra, kriya, pranayama, and guided meditation. The class offers clear instruction and room to notice what happens when you rush, brace, or push—then try a different next move.

No prior yoga or meditation experience is required; drop-ins are welcome. Suggested donation: $15–$25.

Practice with Julia Dyer.

Julia Dyer’s teaching begins with a simple question: what happens in the body when a posture, breath, or moment doesn’t go as planned?

In Steady Practice, she combines gentle Hatha yoga with longer holds, breathwork, mantra, kriya, pranayama, and guided meditation. Her classes are paced for noticing rather than performing, giving students room to observe when they rush, brace, push, or check out—and practice returning to the moment.

Julia brings both an academic background in psychology and more than a decade of study and practice in the Sri Vidya tradition of classical Tantra. As an RYT-500 yoga teacher, meditation teacher, and nervous-system educator, she brings these perspectives together in a way that is clear, practical, and usable in ordinary life—welcoming to beginners and experienced practitioners alike.

A new Thursday morning rhythm.

Reserve through Santa Barbara Yoga Center or arrive a few minutes before class. If it is your first time at the studio or your first time on a mat, someone will help you get settled.
