This is your invitation to slow down.
Restore is a restorative yoga experience designed for deep rest and nervous system recovery—where the body is fully supported and stillness becomes the practice.
Guided by Dina Varellas, known for her quiet grace and deeply soothing presence, this class offers a space to gently set things down. From the moment you arrive, the pace begins to shift. The outside world softens as you settle into your space, supported by blankets, bolsters, and thoughtful guidance.
Each posture is designed to allow the body to be completely at ease—nothing to hold, nothing to fix.
This practice is less about doing and more about receiving.
Being held.
Being supported.
Being given space to simply be.
A quiet thread runs through the class: the shift happens when you stop bracing… when you release the need to hold everything together… and allow yourself to be supported.
Poses are held for several minutes with very little movement, giving your nervous system time to unwind and your body permission to soften. The breath remains natural and unforced—gently observed as you settle into stillness.
This is not about escape or perfection.
It’s about return.
Coming back into your body in a way that feels honest, grounded, and real.
You’ll leave feeling rested, steady, and quietly reconnected to yourself—carrying a sense of ease into the way you move through your life.

About the Intrustor:
As a child, Dina suffered from debilitating seizures. As an adult, she struggled with anxiety and insomnia. One day, she stepped inside a yoga studio for the first time and experienced a kind of quiet, stillness, and peace that she’d never known. Her life was never the same.
Today, she leads yoga and meditation circles, teaches grief and intuitive writing classes, and is a certified life coach and author.
In her newsletter, Through the Lens, she writes about yoga, mindfulness, love, loss, and the human experience. In her book, Wild Horse, Wild Heart, she describes a life-changing connection with an animal and how this relationship taught her to slow down, be curious, and trust her instincts.
For Dina, yoga, meditation, and writing are three tools to quiet the mind, explore important questions, and lead a more intentional life. She loves sharing these practices with her clients. Clients describe Dina as “soothing and uplifting,” a teacher with “quiet grace” who helps you “come back home to yourself.”
Dina is trained in the Amherst Writing Method and Writing Facilitator and a certified Yoga instructor through YogaWorks.
