About This Class
Bryan Kest leads this full-body dynamic flow that weaves together upper-body strengthening (plank, down dog, dolphin, cobra, side-plank variations), lower-body work (crescent lunge, Warrior Two, triangle, one-legged balance, toe squat), and deep spinal mobility (twisting lunges, wide-leg forward fold, half lotus forward bend, supine spinal twists). The class is built around a repeating vinyasa-style sequence on each side, progressing from warm-up rounds of plank–up dog–down dog through increasingly layered standing and balancing poses. Throughout, Bryan's central teaching is that breath—deep, fluid, nasal when possible—is the true backbone of the practice and the primary meditation. He consistently encourages practitioners to work to their own degree, modify freely (blocks, dropping knees, bending into poses), and prioritize sensation over achievement. The session closes with a seated gratitude meditation and a final Savasana, framing the entire class as a practice in humble, mindful self-awareness.

James Allen wisdom. Thank you for a class of self empowerment. Definition of Freedom. or, ‘not being forced’. when our “Wellness” is forced, capitalizing on that sick gym mentality screaming ….’but i dont want to be judged or ridiculed, so i gotta force”, this class reminds me how insane it is to follow force versus screaming back ” enough is enough”. sweet lesson , B and M !
