About This Class

Bryan Kest leads a fluid, breath-centered flow that intentionally sits between Yin and Yang — active enough to build heat and strength, yet slow and mindful enough to release deep tension throughout the whole body. The class opens in Child's Pose and builds gradually through Down Dog, Cobra, and a gentle Sun Salutation-style warm-up before moving into a rich standing sequence: low lunges, runner's lunge, crescent lunge, Warrior variations, extended side angle (Crog), twisting triangle, and wide-legged forward fold. The floor sequence includes deep hip openers (lizard/forearms), reclined twists, Camel, reverse tabletop, boat pose with twists, and a long hamstring stretch. Throughout, Bryan frames the practice as training the nervous system to remain calm under challenge — breath depth is treated as the primary metric of success, not depth of pose. The class closes with a supine spinal twist, knees-to-chest, and an extended Savasana accompanied by a guided gratitude meditation. Props (block, strap) are mentioned as options but not required.
