A sweaty, challenging, super fun flow with Brent, focused on hip mobility and core stability. Get ready to play with some of your old friends in new ways, challenge your balance, find muscles you didn't know you had, and work some deep core stabilizing muscles while you increase your hip mobility. Good stuff. Two blocks may be helpful. Enjoy, yogis!

Hey yogis, would you like to have some fun? Wouldn't that be nice? Let's do it! Grab a couple of blocks and get ready for this juicy, hip-opening flow that is all about being playful. There are a lot of opportunities to get upside down - handstand, headstand, and Pincha, and fun arm balances like crow and flying pigeon. There's sneaky core work and creative transitions that will have you flying or at least giggling as you try. Take what feels right for today and leave the rest, you can always do this practice more than once! Let's just have some fun and see what happens, shall we? That's always the best approach :)

This is a fierce flow designed to get the energy moving, open the shoulders, hips, hamstrings and upper back, strengthen the core, and prepare for arm balances and inversions including bhujapidasana and gandha berundanasana. Hips, backbends, inversions, and arm balances leading into juicy hip, hamstring and shoulder opening. Enjoy, yogis!

Hello friends! Join Brent for this feel-good flow that will open up every major muscle group and help you develop deeper awareness about where you're feeling strong and open, and where you might still have room to grow. Maybe the standing balance poses come easy to you, and the twists feel open, but the inversions present a challenge. Or maybe the inversions are happening, but the binds are out of reach (see what I did there?) This practice invites you to consider - if something is stopping me from finding a pose, what is it? Is it a lack of strength, or a lack of confidence? Is it tightness in your shoulders, or is there room to strengthen your core? There's no rush, you don't have to figure it all out in one session...you can keep comin' back! Maybe save this to your favorites and practice until the poses that aren't coming easily start to reveal themselves to you. You might want a couple of blocks and a strap. Enjoy!

Dear Yogis, Grab a couple of blocks and get ready for a delicious flow! This class is marked advanced because it includes handstand and forearm stand variations (stag-nation lovers get ready!) but as ever, Angela always breaks things down into bite-sized pieces, so if you aren't ready for that, you can still play. Meaning, intermediate practitioners are welcome, just listen to your body as ever. Lots of spinal extension, shoulder-opening, back-bending, twisting, and core strengthening that may lead you into a forearm scorpion, too. Two blocks and a bolster may be useful but not necessarily necessary :)

A great practice post-workout, post-run, or anytime you're looking for a light stretch and deep breathing. Expect to release your shoulders, hips and hamstrings. You may want a strap and/or a block. Listen to your body, breathe deeply and enjoy before bed, after a run, or before a tough conversation :)

This is a restorative, gentle, deep yin practice that opens the hips and hamstrings with long holds and conscious breathing. You may want a block or two so that you can "lift the floor up" to meet you in certain poses, and really allow yourself to surrender. As you breathe and open deeply, Brent will share some history of yoga with you. Going back to the Vedic Period and The Vedas, which explored fundamental questions about existence, the nature of the divine, and the path to liberation. Good stuff :) Enjoy, yogis!

Let's cultivate a little life force, shall we? This is an energizing flow where we will move some energy AROUND! Get ready for fun with compass pose, eight angle pose and koundinyasana 2, along with all kinds of twists and turns as we go. Guaranteed to get your heart pumping, and your juju flowing.

It is an honor just to be in a body living this life, and it is so easy to forget! Join Kate for a cosmic, fiery, twisty reminder. Grab two blocks and get ready to strengthen your core, open your hamstrings, hips and shoulders, play with balance in all kinds of creative ways, and step on your ego a little in the process. It's a good thing :) Enjoy, yogis!

Thought twice about whether to put this practice in the Meditation or Gentle Yoga section. Truthfully, it could be in both! This is a beautiful session that explores what happens when we sit and observe sensation in the body. The most consistent sensation is the breath. And the more we can attune our minds to noticing subtle sensation, the more we're able to be present, curious, and immersed in what's happening from moment-to-moment - in other words, the more able we are to suck the juice out of every moment. In this session, we intersperse deep stretching and breathing with periods of sitting quietly and breathing. There is hip opening with breath, then sitting. Shoulder-opening with breath, then sitting, breathing, and witnessing. There is hamstring opening and conscious breath, and seated meditation once again. Each time you stretch and breathe, and then sit and breathe, you may observe the mind as it quiets more easily and willingly, until the fluctuations cease, and your mind is smooth, like the most placid lake at sunrise, before even the birds are awake. Enjoy, yogis. You may want blocks, straps or blankets for any of the shoulder and hamstring opening.

Wanna cast some witchy circles of protection and peace with Kate? Grab a couple of blocks and a blanket, and get ready for some magic with Hanuman, funky astavakrasana and headstand as you create great energy from within, and ward off all the madness around us! Then you can get back out there with all your witchy ways and make good trouble. Enjoy, yogis.
