In this class, we work on engaging the hamstrings. Yoga has a lot of opportunities for stretching the hamstrings, but for optimal movement in our lives, we need strong hamstrings too. The hamstrings can be used to create stability in the pelvis since they attach at the sit bones. We will use them...

In this class, we will pay attention to where in our bodies we generate tension (strength) in order to make space. Good movement requires that we hold ourselves back at least a little somewhere, so we have somewhere to move from with power and grace. Being held back can feel like a bad thing, but...

In this class, we will work primarily with the legs in neutral or parallel. As someone coming from a dance background, working with the legs neutral was a shift and a benefit to me when I started yoga. I wanted to create a whole class where the legs are neutral to allow you the opportunity to exp...

This class includes a lot of twists! We'll be working on twisting in a lot of fun and creative ways that will keep you core-connected and quick on your feet. Enjoy!

In this class, we will envision our diaphragm moving like a jellyfish moves through water. The diaphragm, our primary breathing muscle, descends and expands on the inhale, and ascends up into the ribcage on the exhale. The movement throughout the class are designed to mirror this movement to help...

We'll be doing a lot of hip mobility work in this class to help you make your hips happy! We'll move both the legs in the hip sockets and the pelvis over top of the femurs to create mobility from several angles. Enjoy!

Through this practice we have the opportunity to gain more control over our bodies and our movements through deeper understanding and repeated efforts. Enjoy this fun class with freedom and challenge that will help uplevel your movement game!

In this short but fun class, be buoyed by your breath as you move around your mat. Let your breath be your guide to help you in feeling light and easy. Imagine that your breath is helping buoy you along in your movements and play with how you breathe as you move. Notice the impact your breath can...

This class is designed to move your body all around the mat and in a variety of ways to have you feeling great, but not without leaving the confines of your mat. So you'll be contained in a small practice space, but not feel constrained by it. Perfect for when you don't have a lot of extra room b...

In this class, we'll pay closer attention to the tension we feel as we move. Bumping up against that tension is an opportunity to create more space. The continual winding and unwinding of our issues, including muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, etc., will produce a greater sense of ease and cal...

In this class, we'll use our bodies and different movement strategies to generate power. Hopefully you'll be able to feel a sense of lightness and ease when you connect to your own sense of power. Enjoy!

In this class, we'll focus on maintaining the essence of a neutral spine throughout so that we can stand tall and deliver the movements we ask of ourselves. Expect a fair amount of balance and coordination while getting taller, lighter, and more connected along the way. Enoy!

In this class, we will focus on the cue "hips back, knees forward" to help create a good hinging action. Proper hip hinging strategies are key to good movement. And although it is important to hinge well at the hips, we want to energetically reach forward through the knees, which can help improve...

In this class, we'll work with a lot of diagonal movements. And we'll think about the fascial slings that run from opposite shoulder to opposite hip across the body. Our bodies are designed to move diagonally, so you may find this quite pleasing for your body. Enjoy!

In this class, we shorten our lever arms by working primarily with bent elbows and knees throughout to allow for pulling of our energy into the center of our body, our core. Notice how working with bent limbs allows you to focus your energy on moving well from your center, so that you can feel mo...

In this class, we will envision shining a light out of our sternum to help improve our posture and movement patterns around the mat. Maybe you've noticed that when your sternum drops down, you assume a slumped posture. Well, not in this class. We'll use awareness of the sternum to refine our move...

When we have a movement practice that is working well for us, we feel great from doing it. That's the hope anyway. In this class, we move in ways that are both accessible and fun so that you can feel your best. Enjoy!

In this class, you have the opportunity to ask yourself "what do you want from me?" This is a good conversation to be engaged in during any movement practice so that you can take care of yourself. I view this as a self-care practice. And it is practices like these that allow me to then ask the wo...

I was inspired to write this class by an exchange I had with a physical therapist who I have observed doing a fair amount of wiggling when he does his movement practice. When I inquired as to why, he explained the benefits of wiggling and they are too good not to explore in a larger context in th...

In this class, we will work on a bottoms-up breathing strategy. When you inhale, ideally, both your thoracic and pelvic diaphragm descend and they both ascend on the exhale. We will focus on a 360º inhale, expanding the ribs in all directions, and a bottoms-up exhale to promote good shoulder mech...

If you’re curious to learn more about how to backbend sustainably and practice backbends that are accessible to everyone, this is the class for you. Yoga can be a pretty backbend-heavy movement practice. Yet, not all backbends are for everybody. I was never a backbend fan until I learned how to b...
