Fun Power Flow
By Angela Kukhahn on Jun 23, 2021
When you don't have a ton of time but want an energizing, heat-building flow with lots of options to get upside down! Optional handstands are peppered throughout this power flow along with standing balance and lots of twists. When we're nice and warm, two blocks may help you find the transition from tripod headstand to koundinyasana 1. Whatever happens, this flow packs in the fun and the heat!

Rear in Gear
By Leslie Kazadi on May 31, 2021
We need strong glutes and hamstrings for all kinds of reasons. But we tend to lose our a$$ as we age... and overall strength and balance. All you need is a little extra support - chair, sofa, bed - to safely strengthen your backside in modified standing poses that are guaranteed to get your rear in gear. The bonus of strengthening from standing is challenging balance, which also gets your brain in gear. This session alternates between strengthening and releasing and is appropriate for any body that needs a little extra support and a little more power in the rear engine.

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!

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.

By Jessica Jablonski on Jan 15, 2021
Ages 4+ We are going to play with yoga straps, but if you don't have one that's okay!! You can use a scarf, or a belt, or even a rolled up towel. We call a yoga strap a prop in yoga class. Props are great tools that help us do poses in a safer way for our bodies. Get ready to use your imagination and play yoga!

Focus for Kids
By Jessica Jablonski on Oct 7, 2020
Kids ages 5-tweens (their grownups are welcome to join!) With all that is going on in the world right now, it can be hard for us to find our focus! Breathing, yoga and mindfulness can help! We will work with the haikini mudra in this practice - a mudra is another name for hand yoga. This mudra helps us find concentration. Flowing through many poses that require our direct attention and finishing in resting pose, yogis will be reminded that they can do anything they put their mind to.
