Greetings, yogis! Welcome to your turbo flow with Kate! Your shoulders, upper back and core are about to feel some feelings! Your hips and hamstrings are about to open. There are all kinds of fun surprises along the way, vasistasana 3 if you'd like it, eka pada koundinyasana 2, dolphin pose presses, and jackknife forearm stand variations using a wall. Please use a wall and not a door because we love you. Also, this is Ally. I found this incredibly sweet opener of Kate's when I was editing this class, and sometimes life is amazing like that. The gratitude I feel for Kate, all the teachers on the site, and all of you is so enormous there isn't enough space here to hold it. But I thank you. And Kate, I love you xx
We start with some grounding and breathing, but don't let the slow start fool you. Once we've "arrived" we'll begin with gentle twists and then some deep core work to get the party started. This practice is all about getting centered, and wringing yourself out. You'll find crow pose, and a little twisted crow, too. Chair pose, and twisted chair. There are also a lot of opportunities to play with binds you don't find in every practice. A strap may come in handy. Enjoy!
This is a full-body flow that starts slowly, maintains a sweet and steady pace, and builds heat as you go. Keep breathing deeply and stay curious as you move through a creative standing balance sequence, core work, and a little handstand play if you're in the mood! You'll end with some heart, hip, and hamstring opening on the mat, and melt into a beautiful savanna. Guaranteed to bring back range of motion where it's needed most.
All right, yogis! This is a heat-building, joy-building flow that leads to some deep, big, juicy backbends! We'll be playing with extension and flexion throughout the practice and breathing deeply in so many ways! Expect breath of joy, Tibetan breath, lion's breath, and of course, ujayii breath -- breathe big! We'll play with ustrasana, monkey pose, anjaneyasana variations, and ways to put it all together if it feels right. Sometimes you feel like celebrating.
About twenty minutes of a gentle but deep stretching practice to open every major muscle group so we can sit comfortably and approach our breathing practice. Pranayama and meditation for the last twenty minutes, noticing the part of us that perceives and the things we're perceiving -- without getting caught up too much in the perceiver -- meaning whatever feelings we're having about the things we're observing.
