Mobility Flow
By Angela Kukhahn on Jun 12, 2021
You are a powerful creator of your own experience. What do you want to create with this practice? This is a mobility flow -no direct core work, no inversions, we're focused on mobility! This means we'll be building heat and doing LOTS of hip, hamstring and shoulder-opening, while giving lots of love to your spine. Please don't force a thing, work with your body to create space, there's no rush. Enjoy yogis! You might want to have a couple of blocks and a blanket handy.

Spinal Awakening
By Angela Kukhahn on Oct 3, 2020
A flowing journey to awaken the spine and your energy! Backbends rule the day as we move from cat/cow variations into low lunge variations that target heart-opening. Crescent pose with more upper back, chest and shoulder opening, including fun with eagle pose and humble warrior. Once we're warm, we'll take the shoulder-opening and spinal awakening to the next level with wild thing and table top variations. If you're looking for energizing heart-opening, look no further! Enjoy, yogis!
