45 minutes of Standing Poses only focused on the GLUTES. My style is to MOVE you a lot and offer challenges. I teach the details of alignment! You will learn to do the poses safely and know if you're doing them correctly for YOUR body. Ground your SELF, find those muscles to Stabilize and then you will be FREE To OPEN. (Added bonus: great for those of you with wrist, elbow or shoulder issues that prevent weight-bearing on your arms!)

Enjoy a gentle warm up, Series A, Series B, standing balance, spinal twists, core strengthening and dancer’s bridge followed by bridge and wheel pose. The cool-down includes happy baby pose, thread the needle, reclined twists and Savasana. Rather than being overly focused with what the posture looks like from the outside, focus on how each posture feels from the inside. Make friends with whatever you discover!

KISS - Keep It Simple, Silly - in your chair when you don't know where to begin a yoga practice. Simply feeling your feet, your breath and your movement will guide you into what is possible in this moment. Let yourself be surprised by how much you can move in a chair and how much strength and confidence you can build. Pay attention to the rhythm of your breath and the river of sensation that is ever present. These simple things can soothe your mind, improve your balance and sense of control over your body as you move through life.

Build your heat and find your balance in this short fiery flow. The sequences will build up the heat right from the start. Practice working your breath and finding a steady gaze so you can move with grace and ease. Yoga isn't just about sitting into a pose but also about how you arrived there. Let's practice being smooth between the moves.
