Angela's love for yoga began in 2003 after a car accident challenged her to find a way to rehab her knees.. Successfully rehabbing both knees her curiosity grew, realizing the powerful healing properties of yoga. Her interest led her to enroll in the Teacher Training with Yogaworks. She was drawn to this program because of their emphasis on anatomy, alignment principles, and proper sequencing. She was fortunate to have been paired with the very well respected, much loved, 'teachers teacher' Annie Carpenter as her mentor. She is now a strong believer as well as a student of Annie's "smart flow" yoga; a strong vinyasa flow yoga style that brings together intelligent sequencing with emphasis on safety, and proper alignment. This type of yoga strengthens tones and tightens the body, focuses the mind and allows the body to open in a safe and logical way.
Angela's classes are playful, fun and sweaty vinyasa flow sequences. Much more than simply stretching and strengthening, yoga enlivens and awakens every cell in the body creating muscles that work together harmoniously. Regular yoga practice improves posture, relieves stress, creates powerful core strength, and integrates the body and mind creating wellness in all parts of your being. Angela constantly strives to offer her students fresh perspective, creativity and inspiration in their yoga practice. She invites you to join her in a fun expressive exploration on your mat!

A short, fun, energizing flow leading to side crow! Grab 2 blocks and get ready to move, breathe, twist, open, strengthen your core, and play on your hands! If you've never done side crow, have no fear, just grab those blocks, an open mind, and your sense of play. As the crow flies, friends!

This is a quick, fun, energizing flow that blurs the line between intermediate-to-advanced, so please listen to your body, but have no fear because Angela knows how to build a sequence! The peak poses are headstand and koundinyasana 1, but you'll also find yourself playing with building blocks for visvamitrasana, you'll fly by bird of paradise, and you'll open everything up along the way. You'll probably laugh a few times, too.

You might think there is no one on earth who could make 7 minutes of intense core-work fun, but you'd be wrong about that! Don't believe it? Grab two blocks and join Angela for some core work on your back, and then flip things over for some core facing the floor. You'll find yourself in side plank, dolphin plank, and dolphin pose, too. Bet you'll enjoy yourself. And you'll think of Angela every time you laugh for the next 3 days :) (You'll get a little shoulder-opening as a bonus!) You're welcome!

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.

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 a fun, thorough, energizing, hip-opening flow that leads to flying pigeon (and gives you the building blocks to get there if you aren't quite ready to take flight yet). You will notice a wildfire alert go off about halfway through this class, because that's how life has been out here this last week. This was filmed before we knew how bad things would get. We are all okay, thankfully, we are all breathing and practicing, heartbroken and grief stricken and sending you love, nonetheless. We appreciate all the love in return very much.

This is a workshop-style class designed for people who have a hard time hingeing at the hips, holding down dog with straight arms and a long spine, coming up to a halfway lift with a flat back, and generally finding freedom in the spine (and often the shoulders and hamstrings as well) as they flow. This is the kind of session that will make such a huge difference if you make it part of your regular rotation. Two blocks and some kind of pole (broomstick or anything along those lines) are needed. Enjoy, yogis!

Vinyasa into fall with Angela! This practice is a blend of strength, flying, and continuous flow on the breath. We balance strength and challenge with fluidity and yummy stretches. Lots of love for the hips of course. 30 minutes of awesome, basically - enjoy :)

Hi yogis! This is a quick, energizing, thorough flow targeting hip, hamstring and inner-thigh opening. You can also count on shoulder opening and deep core engagement as we go. Enjoy! Great for mornings, or any time you want something short, sweet and deep! You may benefit from having 2 blocks and a strap handy if you need them!
