Conjure Yoga & Ritual: A Practice Place for Misfits & Mystics
We believe that creating a welcoming space and sharing the teachings of yoga in a non-hierarchical way cultivates a sense of belonging and connection. Approaching this work (and play!) with an emphasis on empowering the practitioner to nurture not just their bodies, but their nervous systems, makes the powerful, ancient tools of yoga more available and accessible.
We encourage students to be themselves while getting to know themselves, and Conjure Yoga & Ritual is a supportive practice space that fosters growth for new practitioners and folks with lots of yoga experience.
Is Conjure Yoga & Ritual the right place for you to bask in the glow of your magick?
Everyone deserves to practice and to practice their way.
Do It For The Lore!
Alison Rae Clark
(she/her)
Founder
Alison is a Gen X sober queer & a trauma informed yoga instructor with over 15 years of teaching experience. She has facilitated a 200 hr yoga teacher training for 8 years, teaches everything from rowdy vinyasa to enchanting gentle practices.
She blends her sense of humor, encouraging warmth, nervous system knowledge, and love of movement to conjure a spirited lighthearted practice for each student.
She has facilitated Practice in lots of iconic Atlanta locations including the Georgia Aquarium & Dad’s Garage Theatre Company. You can occasionally catch her directing theatre at Dad’s as well!
Alison practices paganism and loves to weave those themes into her classes.
She believes that everything we bring to the mat belongs and our nervous systems are as important to care for as our muscles and bones. She will always encourage her students to orient their practice to them, affirm their choices, and remind them of their ever present magick.
Ganesh Giri has been practicing yoga since 1998. He began teaching in 2002. He says: “yoga can be for everyone. I really enjoy helping people find the connecting flow of movement and breathwork, and the peace and grounding of a mindful physical practice.”
Ganesh really enjoys introducing people to themselves in a new way with yoga; he’s taught a weekly class for beginners for the last 15 years. “I am excited to start this new phase of teaching and practice with my dear friends at Conjure”.
Eve began teaching in 2022 after she graduated from Kashi Atlanta’s 200hr Classical Yoga Teacher Training, where she fell deeply in love with the healing power of mindfulness, movement, and breath.
She aims to inspire personal compassion and curiosity throughout practice on the mat, and encourages her students to carry this spirit to everyday life. Her teachings invite fine-tuned alignment cues, variations on poses, props, and opportunity to explore depths of personal practice.
A yoga practitioner since 2007, Missy decided to pursue yoga and meditation teacher certifications when she finally saw herself reflected in class a decade later.
After spending years as a marketing leader and earning an MBA, Missy’s most significant role yet – becoming a mom – inspired her to focus on legacy work. Missy is passionate about increasing representation in yoga and teaching ancient practices in an affirming and accessible way – ultimately, to shift the narrative of who wellbeing is for.
She aims to equip marginalized communities with mindful movement, meditation, and breathwork tools. Not as a means to be more “productive,” but to hold space for healing, growth, and liberation.
Geoffrey started teaching yoga classes in 2023 after graduating from Kashi Atlanta’s 200hr classical yoga teacher training. Geoffrey is a queer artist, born and raised in Decatur. They combine a deep understanding of alignment with their disarming sense of humor, to create a supportive and welcoming practice for all kinds of students.
Bhava Devi embarked on her yogic journey in 1998, as a pathway to navigate the complexities of race, gender, and disability in her life. Over nearly three decades, she has developed inclusive practices that honor diverse experiences and foster healing.
Her specialized sessions embrace curious beginners and experienced explorers, and support anyone facing anxiety, minority stress, or other chronic conditions within a joyful, mystical space of relaxation and connection.
Whether you seek solace, transformation, or just some spiritual fun—Bhava Devi’s only rules are that you come as you are, and want to love like you mean it.
Laura ‘Tara Devi’ Joplin is a 10-year yoga and meditation teacher, and a somatic psychotherapist. Her offerings are located at the intersection of embodiment and mysticism, integrating somatic tools, therapeutic presence and human heart.
The guiding philosophy for her work, from compassionate and creative yoga classes to deep psychotherapy sessions, is: “We don’t need to be fixed, but seen.”
Slow Flow
We are designed to move! We are also designed to recharge in sweet stillness – all of which helps us deeply unwind and find our way back home to ourselves. In Kim's classes you'll explore the intersections in life through the lens of yoga. She especially loves to guide people in how to use their breath to both energize and soothe the body and mind. Intersections are where potent energies and ideas commingle, leading to growth and expansion, deep interconnection and the mending of all parts of your Self. She looks forward to meeting you on one of these paths.
Kim is a certified yoga instructor with two decades of teaching experience. She’s been told that her classes feel like a warm hug of encouragement. Each practice is grounded in compassion, cheekiness and the wisdom of her teachers and her own personal experiences. Drawing from alignment informed yoga, buddhist mindfulness, tantric philosophy, and meditation, Kim’s classes are always geared towards a practice that supports longevity. She believes in offering a practice that meets you where you are, so that ALL bodies feel safe and supported.
She’s guided thousands of people to explore refuge in practice and learn about the tools that help us create happier, more meaningful lives through group classes and yoga teacher training programs. She’s also had the pleasure to lead practices in a wide variety of spaces outside of yoga studios like CNN, Turner Entertainment Network’s campus, Dirty South Yoga Fest, Chantlanta, art galleries, chiropractic clinics, senior assisted living centers, and the homes of private clients.
When she's not teaching or practicing, she's a creative professional art directing children in photoshoots for Carter's and she is always trying to make time to explore life through painting, drawing and traveling.
