Why Practice Here

What happens when you slow down beside moving water.

Atha Yoga Shala is an outdoor studio on the McKenzie, built around three simple things.

Practice Beside the River

Mats roll out steps from the water, with the current setting the pace of every breath.

Reconnect with Yourself

Unhurried sequences that make room for self care, reflection, and genuine rest.

Community Connection

Small groups of neighbors who show up for each other on and off the mat.

Outdoor Fresh Air Experience

Every class held under open Oregon sky.

Yoga for Every Level

First timers and longtime practitioners welcome.

Mind and Body Wellness

Movement, breath, and stillness in balance.

In the end, just three things matter: how well we have lived, how well we have loved, how well we have learned to let go.
Jack Kornfield

Addie, founder and instructor at Atha Yoga Shala

Your Instructor

Hey, I am Addie.

I have been practicing yoga for 18 years and teaching with two 200 hour certifications behind me. Yoga has carried me through every season of my life, and sharing it outdoors is the most honest way I know to give that back.

I moved to Oregon 8 years ago and fell hard for the McKenzie. About 10 years ago my wife Angela and I opened the studio together, and we have been growing it with this valley ever since.

Outside of class you will find me with our three dogs or out chasing live music. Come as you are. There is a mat here for you.

Right on the McKenzie

Experience the River.

The McKenzie runs 90 miles out of the Cascade Range through old growth forest, past waterfalls and trails, carrying some of the clearest spring water in Oregon. Our shala sits along that corridor in Vida, an easy drive from both Springfield and Eugene.

Come early, stay late, and let the water set the tempo of your day.
