Power Yoga “Flexibility”

About This Class

This 34-minute approachable flow begins with a standing forward fold warm-up and progresses through several rounds of half Sun Salutations, Chair Pose, and Humble Warrior sequences designed to build heat before the real flexibility work begins. Once the body is warm, the class transitions to the floor for an extended, mindful stretching series: a deep asymmetrical seated fold with a side-body extension, a twisted half-lotus variation, double seated pigeon (Fire Log Pose), and a yoga squat with an optional bound chest opener. Travis frames flexibility as a "fountain of youth" quality and encourages practitioners to breathe into sensation, allow micro-releases in the fascia, and resist the urge to mentally check out during longer holds. Props such as a block, blanket, bolster, or strap are offered as modifications throughout. The class closes with Savasana and a gentle knee-to-chest roll-up.
