OAK: 21 Days of Yoga with Ciara OCTOBER 1-21, 2025
Core Principles of
OAK Yoga
1. Root to Rise
Just like the oak, we ground before we grow. We orient to the support beneath us — earth, breath, inner stability — before expanding upward. Practices focus on foot connection, leg strength, and grounding awareness. “Without roots, there is no reach.”
2. Strength with Sensitivity
OAK Yoga cultivates sustainable strength, not force. Power emerges through alignment, tone modulation, and somatic awareness, not brute effort. Muscles co-activate, the nervous system listens, and resilience grows slowly and wisely. “Strong doesn’t mean hard.”
3. Stability in Motion
We explore how to stay steady while life moves — practising dynamic balance, transitions, and wobbles as part of the flow. Like a tree swaying but not breaking, we adapt while rooted. “Resilience is the ability to move — and return.”
4. The Core as a Center, Not a Shape
The core isn’t six-pack abs — it’s the deep midline where presence, strength, and breath meet. In OAK Yoga, we build connection from the inside out: psoas, pelvic floor, diaphragm, transverse abdominis, and subtle awareness.
“Power lives at your center.”
5. Slow is Strong Pacing matters.
Slowness reveals detail and builds strength where it matters most — in awareness, transitions, and tone regulation. We use tempo to create choice and deepen embodiment. “Going slow is not always going soft.”
6. Integrity over Intensity
We prioritise gesture, sensation, and internal honesty over aesthetics or achievement. It’s not how far you go — it’s how true you are while you go there. We orient to inner cues, not outer shapes.
“Meet the edge — don’t override it.”
7. Seasons of Strength
Just as the oak tree sheds and blooms, OAK Yoga honours cycles. There are times to activate and times to soften. We practice resilience through rhythm and consistency. Strength isn’t rigid — it’s seasonal, spiralic, intelligent.
“The tree that bends survives the storm.”
OAK begins October 1st.

With love and earth under my fingernails,
and really mucky toes
