A sweet heart-opening flow to open up the festivities at Bhakti Fest 2011!

Need a shorter practice but want it all? I feel you! This is a full-body flow with lots of deep breathing and hip, hamstring and shoulder-opening. Core strengthening - but of course - a little arm balancing, back-bending and some deep stretching before savasana. Walk away from your mat feeling grounded, with a quiet mind, open heart, and free flow of breath and energy. Guaranteed goodness, enjoy yogis! A couple of blocks may be helpful if you need them to "lift the floor up" :)

Hello yogis! This class is all about side body length and strength as we head toward visvamitrasana (or the building blocks that fell right for you today!) Please grab two blocks, a strap and your open mind, and let's have some fun!

The more you breathe, the better you're going to feel. That is the focus in this sweaty, heat-building, core-strengthening, arm-balancing and mindful flow where we get upside down, open everything up and play with lots of fun poses like lotus if that's approachable for you, firefly pose and bhujapidasana, crow pose, tripod headstand, handstand and more. This is an all-over feel good flow with an emphasis on hip-opening and focus. Enjoy! (2 blocks may be helpful, along with a bolster or firm couch pillow :))

A fun, energizing, hip-opening flow with core strengthening, and plenty of shoulder and hamstring opening as well! Enjoy, yogis!

This is a balanced practice, with flow. We start slowly, stretching and engaging in core work. Emphasis on the hips and inner groins. Once on our feet we move into sun salutations, incorporating standing poses and twists. I sprinkle in side arm balance and half moon pose, to challenge strength and balance. We finish with backbends and the option for shoulder stand or a modified inversion, before savasana. Enjoy! Lauren

When you want it all but you're short on time, look no further! A complete flow, fast! Hips, shoulders, hamstrings, core, twists, standing balance, arm balance, backbends, inversions? Yes? Yes!

Well hello there! I filmed this class for y'all and filmed it live on the YA Practice Page at the same time, so welcome to a little behind-the-scenes fun :) This is a 30-minute hips-and-core flow by request! (It's actually 37 minutes, but I promise it is 37 minutes PACKED full of hip-opening, heat-building, core-strengthening, arm-balancing FUN, with requests from Paige, Katie and Andy that made it that much better!) You might want 2 blocks, and you might like a strap, too! Savasana will be sweet, I promise. Enjoy, yogis!

Hello yogis! This is a power-flow! Lots of standing poses to build some nice heat and get the energy flowing, with some fun twists along the way. Great as a rise-and-shine, anytime.

Join me for a full-body awakening flow with some fun twists and turns so you can practice for them off the mat as well ;) Plenty of hip, hamstring and shoulder opening along with core strengthening so we can play with arm balances like koundinyasana 1 and dwi pada, and inversions including tripod headstand and handstand variations. The theme is listening to your body and your intuition, the best guides when you're dealing with twists and turns!

We start on our backs with some hamstring warm ups and core work. We continue the hamstring stretches, adding inner groins and IT Band. Next we have some twists and quad stretches before getting on our feet for standing poses and flow. We finish with backbends and inversions. An all around stretchy string class. Enjoy!
