Yoga is a tool to journey back to you

Black Sage Yoga was founded on the belief that yoga is truly for every BODY, and that there ​is a need for more safe spaces to practice yoga. We welcome all students, and focus on ​those who are new to yoga or haven’t felt completely comfortable in their prior practice. We ​know what it’s like to be in spaces where you feel as if you don’t belong. Black Sage Yoga ​strives to be a welcoming space of safety that meets students where they are. We are ​committed to ensuring that each person we encounter through one of our classes or ​workshops/retreats feels welcomed.


Rhonda Johnson founded and leads Black Sage Yoga. She is a yoga instructor focused on ​overall wellness and the connection of mind, body and soul in realizing a healthy and ​balanced mindset and lifestyle. A government communications manager by day, Rhonda is a ​200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with American Red Cross CPR/AED certification. ​She leads with compassion and embodies the spirit of her educator parents’ belief and ​commitment to equity in learning. She likes to establish a foundation through which to build ​upon as she leads students from all backgrounds and experiences back to themselves ​through the many practices of yoga.


We would love to be part of your wellness journey.

Coming together in community can be ​beneficial to your journey back to yourself. ​Sometimes, an accountability partner or just ​someone to be by your side is what you need. ​Likewise, while there is great benefit to being in ​community with others, there is also something ​powerful in individual and personalized ​instruction. Learn more about how we can ​support your yoga practice.



There is a lot of value in taking time away from ​the day to day to focus on wellness. Getting ​away if only for hours can be beneficial in ​helping to reset the mind, the body, and the ​soul. Whether a yoga and mindfulness session ​is a part of, or the entire focus of your group ​setting, learn more about how can work ​together to achieve the goals of your group.


With the increasing pressures of today’s world, ​it’s important for companies to consider how ​they can help employees discover more coping ​mechanisms. Enter wellness sessions that ​focus on the total person. Sessions that ​provide tools to help with burnout, stress, and ​anxiety in everyday lives. Let’s work together to ​determine how we can create a plan that fits ​your organization.

Reviews from ​Our Students

The yoga instructor gives the vibes needed to release stress or a guide the class. Rhonda you are such ​a light inside and out. A true goddess. Thank you.


J.Q., Pranayama Stu​dent

Taking these 15 minutes in the morning have been so relaxing and rejuvenating at the same time. I ​have practiced the different techniques that were practiced and “they work”! The only problem is IT’S ​OVER! Thank you!

Yoga Classes/Instruction

Woman Doing Yoga at Home

Coming together in community can be beneficial to our journey back ​to ourselves. Sometimes, we need an accountability partner or just ​someone to be by your side. Come to one of our classes and bring a ​friend or family member or meet new people. Classes are taught with ​compassion with the belief that yoga truly is for everyone. Whether ​it’s your first time experiencing yoga, you’ve taken classes before and ​they haven’t felt good or you didn’t feel safe and supported, or you’ve ​been away from the practice for a while – we invite you to join us. We ​will meet you where you are and help you meet yourself there as well. ​We invite you to check back on class offerings, but for now group ​classes are hosted in private settings. We’d love the invitation to ​come and teach a group class in your space – whether it’s community ​space, a workplace setting, a rented room, a clubhouse, or a park.


While there is great benefit to being in community with others, there is ​also something powerful in individual and personalized instruction. ​We understand that sometimes you may need a level of privacy to ​feel comfortable in movement. Black Sage Yoga would love to be that ​safe space while offering individualized instruction, which can be ​tailored to your specific needs.

Workshops/Retreats

Mindfulness Practices Using a Tibetan Bowl

Sometimes people just need to get away from the mundane, the day ​to day, the routine. Getting away if only for hours can be beneficial in ​helping to reset the mind, the body, and the soul. Workshops and ​retreats are a great way to do a reset, to shift focus, to prepare for ​what’s ahead. Black Sage Yoga has led mindfulness and yoga ​sessions in workshop and retreat settings – each time designing a ​program based on the needs of the group and sometimes the ​individual members. Sessions can be designed for any time length, ​whether it’s 15 – 30 minutes to kick the workshop or retreat off, an ​hour or so for a full mindfulness and yoga sessions, or a half day ​devoted to mindfulness which can include grounding exercises, ​breathwork, and a physical yoga practice (chair, mat, or a ​combination).


If you are a leader or organizer for your group’s activities, consider us ​to be a partner as you plan out your next workshop or retreat. We can ​help design a session that will be empowering as you set out to reach ​new heights as a group. Black Sage Yoga would love to work with ​you and help your workshop or retreat be a success.

Corporate Wellness

Office workers meditating at work.Meditating at office.

Workplace wellness should be more than a catch phrase, or ​something that is often an after-thought. It should be a commitment ​by leadership to offer employees tools to help deal with the increasing ​pressures of our new and tremendous normal. We at Black Sage ​Yoga know what it’s like to work in the corporate world and to feel ​overwhelmed and caught up in the day to day. We can help you show ​employees you care about their wellbeing – with things that go ​beyond the luncheons, the recognitions; things that have a far greater ​impact not only in the moment but with lasting impact. Enter wellness ​sessions that focus on the total person, the mind, body and soul. ​Sessions that provide tools to help with burnout, stress, and anxiety in ​everyday lives. These sessions can be in the form of periodic or ​regular offerings – whether it’s a workshop or a yoga session, or a ​series, these can make employees feel seen and heard. Research ​has shown that employees feel a greater appreciation for the efforts ​companies take with wellness offerings.

Granted, these wellness offerings should be coupled with intentional ​reviews of the corporate structure, culture and workloads but the ​deliberate focus on yoga and mindfulness sessions can be a huge ​benefit. Whether you’re interested in a special event or regular ​offerings, Black Sage Yoga would love to be a partner in that space ​by developing a program that suits your company needs.
