a great exhale
Dec 27, 2020
We exhale 2020 and use every muscle in the body to do it. Start with some serious wrist care and core work, and then fire the muscles of pressing — with headstand, forearm stand and wall-handstand pressing.

in the heart
June 21, 2020
Beginning with kapalabhati breathing and a respectful opening, we move into a strong, heart-opening practice that takes advantage of this hemisphere’s warmth. Keeping in mind that there is no moment when yoga is not available, we move through challenging arm balance sequencing with hearts wide open and a childlike sense of play.
back body strong
Sept 26, 2020
Feel empowered in this flow that enlists the back body muscles to encourage safe, healthy, and great-feeling heart opening. Find an emphasis on energetic seals — like the cue to squeeze into your midline, or to draw the feet toward one another, protecting & strengthening your joints.
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.
be Love
March 29, 2020
We share some sweet meditative intention setting to make room for what is, and then movement begins at around 5 mins. As the practice progresses, you’ll find binds, side planks, heart opening, and chances to get upside down — all in the context of creatively sequenced, smooth flow.
wellspring of peace
March 22, 2020
This is what yogis do.
They take self care seriously. (It’s like putting one’s oxygen mask on.)
They recognize that breathing deeply and methodically is a radical, necessary act of love.
Sweet Heart
We reduce tension, breathe deeply, stretch the face, and draw awareness to the internal gaze before taking a strong flow that emphasizes big, safe heart openings.

Grasshopper
This practice safely and systematically builds toward the arm balance Grasshopper. One of you pointed out that we’d been preparing our hips so nicely this season that it could be a good opportunity to do this challenging pose.… Read More “Grasshopper”
Side Body Magic
This class digs into the side body. It brings length into the waist, the side ribs, the lateral arms and outer, upper legs. It’s amazing how much this part of the body can get ignored, and it can feel so freeing to get roomier there.… Read More “Side Body Magic”
Handstand Play – Flow
This class offers some handstand practice in the midst of mindful flowing. It also visits with forearm stand, side plank, pigeon, and backbends.
