About This Class

This full-body detox flow opens in Child's Pose with Ujjayi breath awareness before moving through progressive warm-up rounds of Surya Namaskar B, weaving in Chair Pose knee-crunches, Crescent Pose twists, and standing balance work including Warrior Three, Standing Splits, and Pyramid Pose with twisting triangle variations. Mid-class intensity peaks with side plank (Vasisthasana), forearm plank with knee-to-tricep pulses, Locust Pose, and Bow Pose variations to fire up the posterior chain. The class then surrenders into long-hold Pigeon Pose on each side, seated Baddha Konasana forward fold, Plow Pose, Shoulder Stand, gentle spinal twists, and Supta Baddha Konasana with a guided extended-exhale breathing exercise, culminating in a generous Savasana. Throughout, the instructor frames the practice as a tool to detoxify the body through twists that massage internal organs, release habitual tension, and quiet the mind — making it ideal for anyone dealing with full-body stiffness, tight hips and hamstrings, stress, or a need to reset after long periods of sitting.
