Who we are

Meet Chris and Nora Gordon, owners

Big River Yoga started as a sparkle in our eye in 2010 and we are proud to offer quality yoga that inspires and uplifts. We like to think we make a pretty great team and hope you also feel the warmth, dedication, and love we put into Big River Yoga to make it an OM away from home. We are residents of the Seward neighborhood and are committed to making our community a better place for all.

We love yoga. We love feeling our best. We love community. You are part of that vision.

💙 with love + gratitude,

Chris and Nora Gordon

Our Mission

At Big River Yoga, we provide yoga and wellness services for the community that promote positive transformation, and help us recognize our shared humanity.

Our mission is to offer quality, heart-based, community-centered yoga classes that inspire and uplift. We aim to provide a space for you to breath, stretch, build strength and flexibility, and most importantly, be yourself!

Yoga is a catalyst for transformation

We believe yoga can be a great connector and catalyst for transformation. Yoga is a harnessing of energy through skillful action to align and integrate your body, mind and heart with consciousness, love, and a “oneness” that emanates through everything.

We have deep respect for the lineage of teachers who have come before us and the cultures from which the practice comes. We are grateful this practice is available to us and we humbly pass the teaching on to our students.

Class Schedule

With over 27 classes per week on our schedule, there is sure to be something just right for you. Find your class!

“Big River is a welcoming and excellent yoga community. I am relatively new to yoga and the instructors have been incredibly patient and instructive. There are all types of people at the studio, which I also really appreciate. If you're an expert or a beginner to yoga, Big River is the place for you..”

Mary says:

“I have been attending Big River Yoga since they opened. I highly recommend classes, not only for the quality of the instructors and variety of classes, but also for the community that has been developed. Thank you Nora and Chris. Thank you also to the instructors for sharing their expertise. I am grateful for this place of peace to practice.”
