Cool Down with Yoga
Tomorrow, 5:30pm - Register Here
Hi There,
Whew—this heat! I hope you're finding ways to stay cool... the cold rivers have never felt so good, right?
Tomorrow, I’m offering a gentle yoga class in downtown Putney—right next to The Putney Diner—and I’d love for you to join me.
There are currently 5 people signed up, which means there’s room for 5 more!
This will be a cooling and calming practice, with slower-paced movements designed to help you stay centered, prevent overheating, and soothe your nervous system.
Plus, I will sprinkle in some intention to help you create an inner focus that aligns your body, mind and heart.
I can’t wait!
You can find more information and the link to register below.
Hope to see you tomorrow!
Lots of love,
Amanda

Yoga in Peru | June 2026

Something truly special is happening in June 2026…
I’m headed to Peru—and I’d love for you to come with me.
I’ll be co-leading a 12-day journey through the Sacred Valley, partnering with Gogi Abroad. This trip is for those who are craving something deeper than a vacation. It’s for those who want to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and experience the magic of the Andes in a truly intentional way.
We’ll be practicing yoga in mountain landscapes that take your breath away, learning from Andean healers, gathering in ceremony, and traveling as part of a small, heart-centered community.
Highlights of the Journey:
Learn from Marianna’s teachings on Andean cosmology, gaining a deeper understanding of the sacred connection between humans, nature, and the universe.
Participate in traditional ceremonies led by Marlinie, including despacho offerings and energy cleansings that honor Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the wisdom of Andean spiritual traditions.
Practice daily yoga and movement with me (Amanda Upton), who creates grounding, heart-centered sessions to support personal transformation and embodiment.
Explore ancient ruins, lively markets, and traditional villages that bring the richness of Andean culture to life.
Savor farm-to-table meals, connecting with the land and local communities through nourishing, seasonal foods.
Deepen your inner journey with guided meditations, mindful hikes, and moments of quiet reflection in awe-inspiring natural landscapes. Whether you’re seeking renewal, inspiration, or a path to transformation, this journey is your invitation to embrace the magic of the Sacred Valley and uncover a deeper connection to yourself and the world around you.
And for those who want to go even deeper, there’s an optional 4-day Salkantay Trek into the high mountains.
I’ll be guiding this experience alongside Marianna Jacobs, a gifted energy healer, and Marlinie, a traditional Andean healer with deep ancestral roots in this region.
This trip is for seekers, nature lovers, and anyone craving spiritual depth, soul-aligned adventure, and time with Pachamama (Mother Earth).
