Show Up Fully

For the Intrigue
Let's keep it interesting, shall we?! Part of what helps me stay motivated to move is the exploration of new movements or familiar movements in a different way. So you'll find some familiar and unfamiliar options in this class. Allow the intrigue of the exploration to help you stay focused and en...

Comfy Cozy
Start this class in your sweatpants and allow your body to naturally and easily warm up. The goal here is to feel comfortable in your body. This class isn’t just rolling around on the floor, but we will start there and then build intelligently into more complex movements. You’ll be surprised what...
-
Energetically Pull In & Up
In this class, we will pay close attention to how energy moves within our bodies. Good movement relies on an energy exchange so that you feel ready to do anything at any time. This is as opposed to shapes where energy doesn’t feel available or is leaking out of our body. In seeking a state of ada...

As the Crow Flies
In this class, we'll use biomechanical knowledge to help us approach crow pose (bakasana) from a new angle. We'll make space in our body to be able to try the pose from a place of strength without forcing or gripping. And hopefully we'll have fun too! Enjoy!

Effective Spinal Rotation
In this class, we’ll work on spinal rotation without flaring the front bottom ribs. Instead we’ll work to get breath into the back bottom ribs. Each time you twist think of filling air or making space into the back bottom ribs on that side first before you create the twist. This should make twist...
-
Alternate & Reciprocate
The ability to alternate and reciprocate in the body are fundamental concepts to good movement. We will explore both of these within this class. We’ll alternate movements from one side to the other. The concept of reciprocal movement means when one part of the body does one thing, the other parts...

Artful Transitions

We will move from pose to pose in a deliberate and repetitive way, which will offer you the opportunity to practice your poses and transitions to make them uniquely yours. Expect both familiar and unfamiliar moves that will delight and challeng...

Chains of Love
In this class, we will be using fascial and muscular connections to move with integrity our bodies. Most, if not all, of the movements we do in a class require the engagement of multiple muscles and movement of fascial slings that make it a full-body experience. That's one of the things I love ab...

Hungry, Hungry Hamstrings
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...
-
Hold You Back
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...

Keep It Neutral
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...

Jellyfish Flow
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...

Happy Hips
