Circulation Appreciation

About This Class

Byron guides this approachable gentle flow with a strong emphasis on breath awareness and moving at your own pace. The class opens seated with conscious breathing to expand full lung capacity, then moves through a tabletop cat-cow warm-up and a flowing child's pose sequence (child's pose → down dog → plank → back to child's pose). From there the class transitions to standing with forward folds, low lunges, and a lunge-to-vinyasa sequence building gently through cobra and downward facing dog. The middle section explores a standing lateral flow — Warrior Two, Reverse Warrior, Side Angle Pose, and Triangle — on both sides. A light standing twist (alternating toe-touch) adds spinal rotation. The class then builds through chair pose and a mellow vinyasa (chaturanga, cobra/upward dog, down dog) repeated several times before cooling down with bridge pose, happy baby, and a restful Savasana. Throughout, Byron emphasizes that gentleness is not weakness, encourages self-pacing, and threads in mindfulness cues about breath, edge-tracking, and presence.
