“Vinyasa” means “a methodical progression from one point to another”, and when we say “vinyasa flow” we are describing the union of breath and movement from one pose to another. Our flow classes are sweaty, focused and fun. The emphasis on breath brings you into your body and connects you to something that’s happening in the present moment--your inhales and exhales, and all the other sensations that arise as you move and build heat, open, strengthen and stretch. Sensations don’t happen in the past or the future, they happen now. Welcome to your body!

This well-rounded flow invites you to honor where you are in the moment, and cultivate patience with the ups and downs of practice...and life. You can expect a gentle warm up, sun salutations, a dynamic flowing sequence, core work, hip opening, heart opening, spinal twists, and savasana. Enjoy, yogis!

A little "movement snack" for days when you're short on time but want to get your heart pumping and your breath flowing, and use the heat to open your shoulders, hips, hamstrings and quads! We play with standing balance and inversions, too. Who says you can't get a lot done in 16 minutes? Not Angela!

Wanna work on a little side-body length and strength? Me, too! Grab a couple of blocks and a strap and let's play. You can dial this practice up or down depending on your energy level and how open you're feeling. Maybe you'll head into visvamitrasana or the building blocks to get there, but we'll definitely open it all up, strengthen the core and walk away feeling energized and centered.

Lots of stuff to release as we navigate all kinds of twists and turns! Expect tons of hip and shoulder-opening along the way, core strengthening, and invitations to play with staying centered in many different circumstances. Keep your heart open, keep breathing, and grab all your props :) Enjoy, yogis!

Hello yogis! Join Lauren for an energizing flow with lots of love for the hips, hamstrings and shoulders, twists and turns, core strengthening, fun explorations of marichyasana, compass pose, and eight angle pose, drop-backs and jump-throughs if you want them, and a very sweet Savasana. Two blocks may be helpful. Enjoy!

A practice for these times, friends. We start with some grounding, breathing, and awareness of sensation so we can get present. Then we head into an energizing flow that targets shoulder, hip and hamstring opening, with extra love for your hips. Eka pada koundinyasana 2 is in the playlist today, along with the building blocks to get there, or hip-opening options if you need to take it easy today. Core strengthening, but of course. And a reminder to cultivate compassion and friendliness toward yourself, so essential right now. Sending you lots of love.

A thirty-minute hip-opening flow that also targets core strength, shoulder and hamstring opening, and handstand-play. If you're looking for an energizing, full-body flow with extra love for your hips, look no further :)

This is an intermediate-to-advanced flow where you can dial things up or down based on your level, and what feels right today. Emphasis is on core strength, and we'll start out on the floor with a block, and feel our way right into that center! Once we're on our feet, you can expect lots of opportunities to play with balance and flexibility, and plenty of front and back-body opening so that you walk away from your mat feeling centered and balanced and ready for whatever comes your way. Give yourself this time to be right where you are, strong in your center, breathing. Enjoy, yogis! 2 blocks and a strap might be helpful, one block is necessary :)

The mythology goes that the peacock is one of the only predators of the cobra, because it can digest its poison. Metaphorically speaking, if you know you can handle something no matter how intimidating or confrontational, there's no need to be afraid. This practice peaks in peacock pose, but peacock pose is not recommended if you are dealing with wrist injuries, or if you're pregnant! Please pick another class for today if that's you. Peacock pose requires balance, focus, and strength, it can aid digestion, and it strengthens the core, arms, chest, shoulders, thighs and wrists. Enjoy, yogis!

Enjoy a well-rounded flow that focuses on embracing the present moment as the ultimate fresh start. What to expect: a gentle warm up, sun salutations, standing poses, arm balancing, core strengthening, and heart and hip opening, with a friendly reminder that every breath offers a new beginning. (This was filmed the week before the wildfires, thus the upbeat tone and theme. Though we will need to begin again and again out here, no doubt. Love to all xx)
