Wam Bam Healing Jam

About This Class

Bryan Kest leads a full-body, breath-centered flow that opens on the floor in Child's Pose and builds steadily through Downward Facing Dog, Cobra, Dolphin Pose, and a layered Sun Salutation sequence. The middle of the class explores a rich standing repertoire — Warrior I, Twisting Triangle, Triangle Pose, standing forward folds, and a challenging Tree-Pose-into-forward-fold balance — before returning to the mat for prone backbends, supine twists, and a final Savasana. Throughout, Kest consistently cues students to personalize depth, take breaks freely, and prioritize breath quality over quantity or aesthetics. The class is framed as a "healing jam": vigorous enough to build warmth and strength in the legs, core, back, and shoulders, yet governed by a philosophy of gentleness and mindfulness that makes it accessible to a wide range of practitioners. Props such as blocks and fists are offered as alternatives, and modifications are modeled throughout. The closing sequence includes supine twists, a knee-hug, and a guided Savasana with an invitation to gratitude and silent meditation.
