A magical mix of challenge and accessibility.

I’m happy to talk about private or semi-private sessions either at your home or in a south MPLS yoga studio. My base rate for private sessions with individuals is $60 an hour. I am also available for events or partnerships with corporations, municipalities, or nonprofits. I enjoy teaching in residential and outpatient treatment facilities or re-entry programs. If you think I may be a good fit for your needs, please feel free to reach out via my contact form.

Public Yoga Classes |
Dallas currently regularly teaches these yoga classes open to the public.
Monday: 5:30 pm Vinyasa at Midtown YWCA
Wednesday: 10:30 am Silver Sneakers Yoga at Midtown YWCA
Saturday: Donation-based Queer Yoga (We’re currently meeting at First Universalist Church in Minneapolis at 3400 Dupont Avenue in South MPLS. Join the list for the code to get into the building and the Zoom link.)
I am seeking a sponsor for this class as the nonprofit sponsoring it recently dissolved.
You may sign up through Google groups to get details for where we are meeting.
We are a very welcoming, friendly, fluid group with a strong core of regulars. Classes are most often vinyasa/flow-based, with the occasional yin or workshop class. You are always welcome to adapt and do whatever serves your body and heart best – we don’t need to practice alike to practice together.
No yoga experience is needed! If it’s your first time doing yoga, let Dallas know, and they’ll be happy to get you up to speed before we start class. Classes are meant to be approachable and both identity and body-affirming. Dallas practices a responsive teaching method, which means that they teach to the needs of the people in the space to the best of their ability. They strive for inclusive, affirming language, offering options for poses and level of participation, and physical spaces that support ease of access and dignity for all.
We practice affirmative consent. We often use clothespins, which can be pinned to the front of each person’s yoga mat to indicate an openness to hands-on adjustments, and Dallas always gets consent before touching.

For starters, it's a damn good yoga class simply measured against popular metrics. I did "serious" yoga for years. Learned the fancy poses. I recently revisited that scene. And your classes are still the best body practice I've been part of. My body burns, sweats, strengthens, stretches, realigns, relaxes, and feels good.
And it does all of that without exacerbating the shoulder and knee injuries I acquired in expensive studios. You've created a yoga space that isn't performative. Where I'm not worried about looking pretty or impressing the people around me. Where I'm able to focus on leaning into and pushing my edges in the way that works for my body. In a way that allows me to keep showing up and practicing and getting stronger and feeling good every week.
Our non-performative space also benefits my body image. The body-positive words you share and variations for bodies with "more abundance" mean a lot to me. Even as someone in a slim body, (I can sometimes be bloated :) and) like most women, I'm prone to some level of body-image concern and the fear of gaining weight -- gasp! Your classes provide ease, comfort, and trust in my love of my body. Which itself is a joy and also opens up brain space and energy for other sources of joy! ...It can't be overstated how meaningful this aspect of class is.

“Your solid presence, capacity to be vulnerable, regularly asking clients what they need to work on, and creating a flow that is different but good every time is such gift. Thank you for being a great teacher.”

Dallas holds space for the entire queer community (and allies) and consistently demonstrates literal and metaphorical flexibility in responding to community requests and feedback. Dallas is always real about where they themselves are at, and to me, this is one of the truest expressions of yoga - to move with skillful action from where one actually is.
