Posterior Hips
By Jessica Oldfield on May 19, 2021
This class is focused on the posterior hips - the glutes and the hamstrings. We will stretch and strengthen these areas and learn how these muscles can affect the health of our knees and ankles. This is a Foundational Flow class which means we will move at a slower pace but it's expected that you are familiar with the poses and the breath and have been practicing regularly for some time!

Self-Compassion Flow
By Josie Kramer on Apr 27, 2021
What to expect: a gentle warm up that starts with cat/cow, down-dog, and plank and builds into sun salutations and a vigorous standing flow, and ends with a cool down of gentle back-bending and hip opening. Listen to your body and practice compassion for yourself! Enjoy, yogis!

Where the Earth meets Sky
By Ekaette Ekong on Feb 4, 2021
This is a strengthening practice focusing on our hips and hamstrings. Using long holds, we will learn to create deeper connection with our legs and our back body, We will also flow to become more attuned to ourselves and how we move through space. Remember that your time on your mat is yours. Take breaks as and when you need. Honor the true inner voice of self and it will show you the way. Prior to beginning, take about 5 minutes to settle into a comfortable seat and find your breath. Breathe evenly and deeply. Try to smooth out roughness in your breathing. As you settle more into your breath, begin to awaken ujjayi pranayama (breathing through the back of your throat, creating a whispery quality of sound). As you continue to breathe fluidly, now begin to balance out your breath so that your inhales and exhales are the same length. Become mindful of your breath. Consider it a dear friend here to support you throughout your practice. Take a moment and inwardly acknowledge yourself for getting on your mat today and holding this sacred time for self-exploration. When you feel ready, slowly open your eyes, and hit “play”. May all beings be happy, safe, and free, E.

Be Where You Are with Love
By Ekaette Ekong on Jan 6, 2021
Be Where You Are. Love Who You Are. Being present is extremely elusive. We have brief glimpses of it, like looking at stars in a dark sky. Eventually our mind is focusing on the past or future, and the moment of NOW is lost. Can you be exactly where you are with acceptance? Can you be compassionate with yourself when you fall and pick yourself up? We will explore these themes of patience, presence and curiosity as we move into this hour long practice together. Be easy with yourself. You may lose your balance and/or your focus. Know that you can always find your way back to presence and self-acceptance. Love and Peace to all, E.
