About This Class

This 60-minute flow class opens with a patient, compassionate tone in Child's Pose before building steadily through Sun Salutation-style Vinyasas, standing balance poses (Warrior Three, Crescent, Warrior One, Warrior Two), twists (Chair Twist, Humble Warrior, Crescent Twist), and optional arm balances (Crow, Side Crow). The instructor weaves in core work via forearm plank and Sphinx Pose, spinal mobilization through cobra progressions and cat-cow variations, and side-body opening with Side Plank and Reverse Warrior. The second half deepens into Pigeon Pose on both sides, a seated forward fold, Butterfly, Plow Pose, Shoulder Stand, and a supine spinal twist before arriving at Savasana. Throughout, the instructor emphasizes breath as the primary discipline, encourages modifications without judgment, and frames the practice as a sensational, mindful experience aimed at releasing tension, improving flexibility and balance, and cultivating a calm, grounded mindset.
