Intense and Fun
By Ally Hamilton on Mar 18, 2020
If you're looking for something intense, energizing, steady and fun, look no further! We did lots of heat-building, core strengthening, hip, shoulder and hamstring opening and side-body stretching to get ready for bird of paradise, bound ardha chandrasana, koundinyasana 2, crow pose, headstand, firefly pose, forearm balance (with building blocks to get there!) and so much more. We also laughed. Unroll your mat and let's have some fun! A block and a strap are helpful for some but not necessary.

Swerve
By Kate Duyn on Mar 11, 2020
Lots of fun twists and turns in this one, folks! A little twisted boat pose, variations with Archer's pose, side body deep release, twisty arm balances, headstand action and so much more. Get ready to flow, play and swerve!

Fiery and Fun
By Ally Hamilton on Jan 18, 2020
Did I say Fiery? Just making sure you saw that! We work hard and play hard in this sweaty flow that keeps coming. Lots of core, hip, shoulder and hamstring opening, opportunities to play with arm balances like flying pigeon, handstand help, backbends and a nice rest when you're done! Please note, we filmed this class right before I replaced the sound system, so I do cut out in a few places, but took the class myself and it's pretty minimal and not at all hard to follow, so I'm publishing :) I hope you enjoy!

Concise, Mindful, Centering
By Ally Hamilton on Dec 29, 2019
This flow targets the hips, hamstrings and core. We begin with some gentle twists and stretches on the floor to say hello to the hips and hamstrings, add a little breath of fire, and start the party with core work. Then we get on our feet for Series C, crescent pose variations, standing balance including eagle pose, standing splits and standing marichyasana, baby bakasana, lizard and pigeon pose variations, a quick headstand tutorial and then a well-earned savasana. Enjoy, yogis!

Bring on the Heat
By Ally Hamilton on Dec 17, 2019
Heat-building for days when you have a good amount of energy and not a lot of time! Chaturanga push-up crunches, jump-switches and core strengthening get us nice and warm quickly, so we can play with standing balance like eagle pose, and then turn that eagle upside-down in a handstand if you're ready for that! Lots of love for the hips, shoulders and hamstrings, and some laughs along the way, too! Enjoy!

Slow Focused Flow
By Lauren Peterson on Dec 7, 2019
This is a focused flow class. Coming in just over 40 minutes, it's a perfect class for strength and balance when you don't have time for a longer practice. Extra attention to hamstrings, balance poses, and twists. Enjoy!
