This Week’s Class: Breath-Led Movement
Feb 21, 2021
Energize from the bottom of your lungs, and move intuitively to expand through every recess of the body. When you get right down to it, every muscle can be an accessory muscle to breathing.

posterior core
Feb 14, 2021
We focus this week on strengthening the parts of the core that wrap around to the back of the body: from hamstrings to glutes and through the mid- to upper back.
wholesome
Healing is in the air this week. Start with a 10-min pose offered to send a rest signal to the psoas, back & brain. At 10 mins, movement begins.
visvamitrasana
Dec 13, 2020
Despite the mellow tone, we cover quite a bit of territory in this week’s practice! From Nauli to forearm stand to a challenging arm balance transition we open & strengthen from the inside out.
locust flow
Oct 17, 2020
Hop right to it in this steady, strong flow with lots to play with. The idea is to respectfully access deep inner reserves.
Expect: Locust vinyasas, side plank variations, balancing, eagle, koundinyasana arm balance, forearm stand, pincha, splits, wheel, drop back and stand up
How are you doing?
(im)practical Strength
Aug 1, 2020
When you’re stronger, the whole day is easier. Carry out your good work in the world from a strong center. This flow starts out with some calisthenic-style strengthening and then morphs into a flow you can lose yourself to.
waking up
July 4, 2020
In this luxurious practice, we begin reclined and wake up systematically, respectfully, and joyfully. This is the sort of practice you can do every single day for whole-body health.
quiet strength
June 27, 2020
In this practice, we take a few minutes to arrive and center before entering a deceivingly mellow, grittily powerful flow. Expect glute work, core work, leg & arm work, along with forearm stand opportunities.
moved
June 13, 2020
When we get silent and tune into nature, it is easy to be MOVED — as though the life force’s creativity has found a channel through YOU. Enjoy a progressive flow that visits with some of our warm & yummy favorites.
tenacity
June 6, 2020
When we keep showing up for the practice, it starts showing up for us. Move through this core-strengthening practice with opportunities to get upside down. Try an arm balance transition that takes you from flying pigeon to a pigeon-koundinyasana hybrid.
tapasya
May 30, 2020
Take a purifying journey that builds internal heat and stretches you beyond your limits in a responsible and mindfully paced way.
How are you doing? Leave a hello in the comments 🙂
highest purpose
May 23, 2020
Beginning with dirgha breath counting, we move into a flow that has at its heart the determination to enter a flow state that gets us out of our own way in order to access inner knowing.
lines of energy
May 10, 2020
Rechaka pranayama begins this mindful practice, which emphasizes energy lines and the radical emptying of breath. Movement begins at about 10mins, and downdog makes its appearance at about 15mins.
earth + SKY
Apr 19, 2020
You have the option to roll the mat up and do a practice that connects you in the realest sense to the ground beneath you. We duck traditional sequencing in favor of moving in an intuitively nourishing way.
This one’s for YOU
March 8, 2020
Hi there! This is a practice you can turn to when you want to get right in to a moderate challenge and all-angles opening. There’s a light focus on uddiyana bandha, a visit with strong standing sequencing, heart opening, balance poses, leg-lengthening, an unconventional arm balance and invitations into chin stand and handstand.
listening for guidance
Feb 23, 2020
Beginning with the intention to listen to the Universe’s clues directing us, we move calmly yet swiftly into a leggy and core-strengthening flow. Find side planks with many variations to tone the shoulders, core, and legs.
