Here is our monthly members-exclusive 30-min video, September edition. Find a smart, whole-body sequence that pays homage to side plank in its various forms.
A simmering progression into such adventures as a flying lizard arm balancing sequence and a breakdown of pressing into pincha mayurasana (w/ modifications and variations).
Strengthen & stretch the shoulders in this dedicated class that also happens to be a whole-body session. It's a 60-min class with a bonus 10-min tutorial describing safety in chaturanga and strategies for keeping the shoulder safe as you build strength for arm balances.
Strengthen your back body in this full body class that emphasizes rear-chain activation. Get stronger at the low back, upper back, glutes and legs as you build from locust variations into classical backbends.
For the runners among you, this one will feel good after any endeavor that's tough on the legs. Start with restorative leg stretching and evolve into a simmery strong Vinyasa.
Simple conditioning exercises strategically activate and warm up key muscle pairings before you are guided into a more traditional Vinyasa yoga class w/ an emphasis on core and feel-good standing poses.
Systematically build or deepen a feel-good King Pigeon in this whole-body-meets-pinnacle-pose practice. It's especially great for those who are close but not quite there and for those who just want to feel excellent instead of strained while they approach this demanding backbend. You'll need: a strap, 2 blocks, and a blanket. I'd love to see or hear about your progress!
Build the heat and peak around 45 minutes. A good one for returning to the practice and for metabolizing tough emotions, with a relatively slow build-up, solid standing sequence, handstand opps, headstand variation, and length for the legs.
Happy Fathers’ Day! Today we use the wall for digging in a little deeper: with heart openers, twists, binds, and handstands. Clear out some wall space. It’s worth it!
Core work, handstands, and splits training — oh my. Move at a pace of one inhale or exhale per standing pose after you complete the initial core work. Whole-body conditioning with a few surprises. Enjoy!
Every now and then you've got to jump on the mat and see where your body takes you. Here we visit with most angles and categories of poses, so it's a full-body experience. You'll find especially: hip flexor opening, forearm stand work, and heart openers.
