Use your core strength to help with balance and focus, working up to a challenging balancing sequence with the option to utilize the chair for support if needed. There's a great flowing rhythm to help you get in sync with the breath, and tune into the present moment.

Perfect for end-of-day practice, anytime you're feeling low energy, or when you're coming back from being under the weather like I am! This is a slow and steady session that will open the hips, shoulders and hamstrings. The pace is slow, the holds are long, the breath is the focal point. Be kind to yourself, it's important :)

This session answers these questions and gives you cues to play with creating awareness to know your knees.

When you think of restorative backbends, "wheel" probably isn't the pose that comes to mind - unless you have used a chair to support you. This session will show you how to use a chair to create the shape of wheel using gravity to open up your chest. You will sense the relationship of "engaging your core" and how that balances out your wheel to create sukha/spaciousness in your entire spine!
