Explore the interplay between the feminine (yin) and masculine (yang) energies within us all. We begin class with a grounding meditation, and move right into side body stretches and gentle spine openers. Our vinyasa sequence incorporates hip openers and lower back strengtheners, primarily through Warrior II, Triangle Pose, and Half Moon Pose with a block. Standing Tree pose and Eagle pose variation help firm our attention and create a sense of inner balance. We complete class with a heart opener and gentle backbends. Our closing meditation brings us back to the idea of inner and outer balance, feminine and masculine energies, and encourages us to incorporate balance into our lives, our births and our families.
