Plenty of Modification Options

About This Class

This 102-minute class opens with an extended settling-in period focused on nasal breathing, lung capacity, and mental quietude before introducing any movement. Bryan Kest layers in a repeating six-movement warm-up flow — downward facing dog, standing forward fold, cobra, and plank transitions — cycling through it multiple times to build heat and familiarity without pressure. The practice then expands into one-arm/one-leg balancing table-top work, runner's lunges, standing balancing sequences (including knee-to-chest, straight-leg forward extension, and airplane variations with fingertip floor touch), deep hip-opener stretches with forearms toward the floor, kneeling thigh stretches, locust/bow variations for back strengthening, wide-legged forward fold with shoulder stretch, supine core work, plow, shoulderstand, spinal twists, and a long final Savasana. Throughout, Bryan consistently offers knee-down, forearm, or hand-support modifications and frames every pose as a personal "sweet touch" rather than a performance. The tone is conversational, philosophical, and gently humorous, making the class equally accessible to beginners and experienced practitioners who want a mindful, full-body experience.
