Wring it Out
By Kate Duyn on Nov 20, 2023
Hello friends! In this flow we're going to work toward twisting half moon in all kinds of creative and meaningful ways. Count on lots of twists, IT band opening, and love for your outer-hips along the way. You'll also find some fiery ab work in forearm plank and other juicy surprises. Grab two blocks and let's start the party!

Heart Forward Flow
By Kate Duyn on Oct 22, 2023
We're moving toward Lord of the Dance pose so you can count on lots of shoulder, chest, upper back and quadriceps opening along with twists and forward folds to keep us centered. Monkey pose makes an appearance and you may decide to explore that pose in forearm stand as well. One-legged King Pigeon Pose II is a potential stop on this journey, so you may want to grab a strap. Keep breathing and keep moving (heart) forward!

Playful Backbend Flow
By Angela Kukhahn on Oct 11, 2023
Intermediate yogis welcome and encouraged, just please pick the options that make sense for you along the way and always listen to your body! This is a playful backbend flow that will leave you feeling open and energized! We build lots of heat and open the hips, hamstrings, quadriceps, shoulders, chest and upper back so you are all set to explore some deeper backbends! If you're comfortable on your hands, we will incorporate backbends into our inversion practice (if not, I will give you tons of building blocks to work on). You can expect handstand and forearm stand with options to work at the wall. We will play with scorpion pose (again, I will show you how to approach at the wall if you're starting this exploration) and stag pose. Savasana is guaranteed to be sweet!

Inversion Journey
By Angela Kukhahn on Sep 26, 2023
Hi yogis! Are you ready to go on an inversion journey? Yay! Grab two blocks and a bolster for your ticket to ride! In this 47-minute flow we play with tripod headstand, traditional headstand, forearm stand and handstand! You can expect some nice core work to get you fired up, and detailed instruction about how to safely and intelligently approach these poses. I'll break things down into bite-sized pieces, so if you aren't ready to go upside down today (and I'll tell you how to figure out if you are or aren't) you'll have plenty to work on to move toward these poses! Cool, huh? I think so too, let's do it!

Super Centered Flow
By Lauren Peterson on Sep 18, 2023
The focus of this flow class is the core and twists. We do some stretching and strengthening on the floor, moving up to the feet. Once standing we do a few rounds of Uddiyana Bandha, a navel lock. This is great for discovering and toning the core. Next we flow with some sun salutations, a bit more core work and standing poses. We breathe our way toward some arm balances as an extension of base poses. Even if you don't get up in bakasana or revolved koundinyasana, you will be setting the foundation for them with squats and twists. Enjoy!

Flying High
By Kate Duyn on Aug 5, 2023
Yogis, if you're looking to shift your perspective, please grab two blocks and follow me! We're going to deeply open the hips, shoulders and hamstrings so we can play with arm balances including koundinyasana 2 and inversions including many different headstand variations (please be sure your neck feels good and you have a long-term headstand practice if you do the variations!) Enjoy!
