Move & Meander: Yoga and Hiking with Jayde

Move & Meander — where hiking meets yoga, breath work, and mindful presence—set against the backdrop of California’s vibrant Superbloom.

About this Event

Step into spring with an intentional day of movement, connection, and nature.

Join us for a Move & Meander experience—where hiking meets gentle yoga, breathwork, and mindful presence—set against the backdrop of California’s vibrant superbloom season.

This is your invitation to slow down, soak in the wildflowers, and reconnect with your body and breath as we transition into the warmer months 🌞

This experience is intentionally designed as a flowing journey:

We'll start with an opening circle, then hike thrugh the wild flowers to some beautiful rock formations and views, engage in a yoga flow, and then make our way back to the parking lot.

🌼 Why This Experience?

Spring in California is fleeting—but magical. The superbloom is a reminder to:

• Slow down and be present
• Witness beauty in transition
• Move your body with intention
• Connect in community (or solitude within community)

This is more than a hike—it’s a nervous system reset and a chance to move in rhythm with nature.

🧘🏽‍♀️ What to Bring

• Yoga mat or blanket
• Water
• Snacks or light lunch
• Comfortable hiking shoes
• Layers + sun protection

⚠️ Accessibility & Notes

• Beginner-friendly but includes uneven terrain and gradual inclines
• Please arrive on time to maintain the flow of the group

🌊 About Move & Meander and your Instructor:

Move & Meander is a nature-based experience rooted in mindful movement, breath, and connection. Each gathering is designed to support grounding, regulation, and reconnection—with self, others, and the earth. Jayde Barber is a multidisciplinary practitioner working at the intersection of yoga, mental health, education, and visual storytelling. With a background in mental health, peer support, and social work—particularly alongside homeless and underserved youth at Youth Moving On—Jayde’s work centers nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and making restorative and healing tools more accessible to communities that have historically had limited access to them.

Jayde has been practicing yoga since the age of eight, first turning to mindful movement as a way to manage severe anxiety and panic. That lived experience continues to shape her approach to teaching: grounded, trauma-informed, and focused on using embodied practices to calm the nervous system and support collective well-being. After completing her 200-hour yoga teacher training at the Tree Yoga Cooperative, Jayde began offering accessible yoga through Tides of Jayde, bringing nervous-system-supportive movement into community, workplace, and public spaces with an emphasis on inclusivity, self and collective regulation, and accessibility.
