Here is a go-to practice for days when you're short on time but know you'll feel so much better if you breathe deeply and open every major muscle group! Everything flows better when you flow first ;)

The focus of this flow class is the core and twists. We do some stretching and strengthening on the floor, moving up to the feet. Once standing we do a few rounds of Uddiyana Bandha, a navel lock. This is great for discovering and toning the core. Next we flow with some sun salutations, a bit more core work and standing poses. We breathe our way toward some arm balances as an extension of base poses. Even if you don't get up in bakasana or revolved koundinyasana, you will be setting the foundation for them with squats and twists. Enjoy!

A perfect practice when you're looking for "just enough!" We build some nice heat and use it to open the shoulders, hips, hamstrings and quads. There are options for crow pose and tripod headstand. You can do active or restorative backbends. Just a great practice to open things up, get your breath flowing and decompress. I did this after a long hike and it felt amazing. Enjoy, yogis!

This is a full-body fiery flow with moments of rest. You are gonna sweat to be clear, but this isn't a sculpt, it's a vinyasa flow that will make your whole body happy and strong and open! Enjoy, yogis! Bowtie optional ;)

Hello, yogis! Today we have a fun, middle-of-the-road kinda flow that is not too crazy-hard and not easy, either! Just a sweet, solid, full-body flow with options for arm balances and inversions, but only if you want them! Enjoy this ride :)

A slow but powerful practice that invites you to stay open to possibilities in the midst of heightened intensity and uncertainty... enjoy!

Oh hi there! If you're looking for a class that's going to open and strengthen every major muscle group, get you breathing deeply and feeling as open and energized as possible, then you've come to the right class! Once we're warm we play with bakasana and tripod headstand, and there are also tips and tools to play with lifting to handstand with both legs together. Enjoy, yogis!

A practice for days when you have a moderate amount of energy but want to open up and breathe deeply. We move at a steady, mindful pace. You can expect to open every major muscle group, to fire up your core, to play with arm balances and inversions, but to do all of that with a calm, cool, curious state of mind and the willingness to turn the heat up or down based on how you feel. Enjoy, yogis!

This is a flow that opens every major muscle group. We start with a little grounding and meditation, and move into a flow that's all about focusing on how you feel from moment-to-moment without attachment or agenda. You can expect lots of spinal mobility, shoulder, chest, upper back, hip and hamstring opening. Standing balance and arm balancing and inverting because nothing makes us focus like a good balance pose, and because they're fun when approached with curiosity. Enjoy, yogis! Being able to focus is not just fun, it's also freeing!

A fun flow where we build heat and deeply open the shoulders, chest, hips and hamstrings and fire up the core so we can safely play with arm balances including crow pose, bhujapidhasana, firefly pose, flying pigeon, and dragonfly! Building blocks included and two actual blocks may be helpful!
