Know What Your Body Needs

About This Class

This dynamic yoga flow guides students through a comprehensive full-body practice anchored in Ujjayi breath and the philosophy of listening inward. The class opens gently with seated side stretches and Downward Dog warm-ups before building through Sun Salutation variations, standing sequences including Warrior One, Warrior Two, Triangle, Reverse Warrior, Side Angle, and Half Moon Pose, and balance challenges like Eagle and Side Plank. Mid-class, the instructor introduces runner's lunges, low and high lunges, standing splits, and three-legged Dog with hip openers. The latter half focuses on deep hamstring and quad stretching via splits prep, Camel Pose for backbending, and a seated sequence featuring head-to-knee folds, Prasarita, Baddha Konasana, and supine poses including Bridge, Thread the Needle (figure-four), twists, and Happy Baby. Throughout, the instructor consistently returns to breathwork as the primary tool for presence, stress release, and body wisdom, framing the practice as an opportunity to transcend ego, set intentions, and cultivate peace. Props are not called for, and modifications (bent knees, blocks not mentioned but knee-down options offered) are woven naturally into instruction.
