At Root Whole Body, we specialize in mindful yoga styles—Hatha, Yin, and Restorative—that help you reconnect with your body, quiet the mind through deliberate, intentional movement.

Slower is better when it comes to yoga styles like hatha, yin, and restorative because it allows you to fully experience each posture, deepening your mind-body connection. In a fast-paced world, these slower classes offer the space to slow down and tune into your breath, promoting relaxation and mental clarity. Moving at a gentler pace gives your body the time it needs to release tension and improve flexibility without strain. With fewer transitions, you can focus on alignment, awareness, and inner healing, making each pose more therapeutic and nourishing for both body and mind. Slower yoga is a true practice of presence and restoration.



What truly sets Root apart is the holistic experience that surrounds your practice. Begin your journey with a session in our sauna to warm and open your body before class. After your practice, unwind in our serene tea room or nourish yourself with a meal from our plant-based cafe. Every detail of Root is designed to support your well-being, making it more than just a yoga studio—it’s a sanctuary for self-care.

Rosalea: I began my yoga journey over 20 years ago; attending my first Iyengar class at a beautiful little studio in Cedar Hills, Oregon. Initially looking to yoga as a new form of movement, I became entranced with the precision of body alignment, and the strength I developed through regular practice. After a major abdominal surgery in 2018, as well as struggling with burn-out from an intense corporate job, I longed to get back into the yoga studio, and needed a more gentle option to ease back into movement. I discovered Restorative Yoga, and fell in love with yoga all over again. Restorative practices nourish and renew the nervous system, helping the body re-set and heal from our stressful and over-stimulating environment. I subscribe to the belief that yoga is first and foremost a practice of the mind. It is to quiet our mind, to help us find our true Self, and truly understand the universal Self that connects us all. The asana (yoga poses) practice is a way to connect soul to mind to body. Consistent and steady practice provides deep nourishment to our physical body, and is a discipline to reach that inner Self.
