In this class, we'll work on activating the glutes to create space in the front of the hips. We'll do this primarily with the knee(s) bent to really hone in on glue engagement while taking the hamstrings more out of the equation. Our glutes operate at their best when we move from a neutral pelvis...

In this class, we will use our connection to the floor to feel both rooted & light. We'll use the floor as our stable & reliable ally. When you feel more stable, you also can create more freedom, so we'll explore this idea in our movements.

In this class, we'll connect into & strengthen the core. We'll work the entire cylinder fo the core, front, back, & sides. This includes muscles such as the transverse abdominus, obliques, and multifidus. This class is fun and sweaty!

In this class, we work on creating sustainable thoracic extension. So we will create movement of the spine where the ribs attach, in the upper back. In order to do so, we want to move from a place of strength, rather than collapse. We'll also be working to mobilize the space around the ribcage. A...

Internal & external rotation are fundamental movements of the leg in the hip socket. The yoga practice itself has a lot of external rotation built into the shapes we make with our bodies. In this class, I intentionally incorporate more internal rotation into our movements. The result is more spac...

In this class, we'll work to reset our bodies from all that sitting! In order to do that, we'll focus on creating space in the hips, energy in the calves, stretch out the neck, and get some more opening in the chest/shoulders. If you sit much, this class is a great antidote to that.

As we age, getting down to & up from the floor is one of the skills that gets harder. But it will be less challenging if we practice it. That’s what this class was designed to do, to make you get down to get up in a variety of ways so that you have options and you continue to practice these skill...

When we live in the moment, it is full of endless possibilities. Our bodies, minds, & hearts are capable of so much more than we think they are. So in this class, let's embrace those things and try to live in the moment so we are open to more! You'll encounter a few unexpected transitions in thes...

In this class, we'll wind up in order to unwind & release tension. Through this process we'll be able to create more freedom & space in the body. Sometimes in life you need to create some more tension in order to release it, this is one of those cases. Enjoy the beautiful scenery from my parents'...

In today's class, we work to create stability, mobility, & adaptability in our shoulders. The shoulder is a complex joint that requires attention to keep functional over time. We want to keep using our shoulders in sustainable ways so that we feel great & maximize our potential. This class will h...

In this class, we work on both ankle stability & mobility. We pay close attention to where the weight is in the foot in weight-bearing in order to help establish a neutral ankle. We also work on movement at the ankle, helping to establish good flexion & extension at the joint. By the end of class...

In this class, we'll focus on relieving & lengthening the lower back, which often gets tight in our daily lives from sitting & less than optimal movement patterns. We'll open up the sides of the body & get in some gentle twists with length, while also working on stability in the pelvis while in n...

In this class, we'll mobilize the hips & spine so that so we can maximize their function. In life, we need to be able to move thru a full range of motion to be able to create a maximum amount of force when needed. These skills will help our ability to adapt quickly to whatever requirements arise.

In this class, we'll incorporate a number of functional movements. Functional movement means movement that translates off your mat into your everyday life, the way you move about the world. And we can always use some practice on how to move about the world in more refined ways. Think about how yo...

In this class, we work with the theme of circles. We'll be making circling motions in the major joints of the body - the shoulders & hips. When we move the limbs around in the shoulder & hip sockets, they release synovial fluid which lubricates the joints. This helps take us from feeling stiff in...

In this class, we'll work to both strengthen & lengthen the sides of the body. We'll focus on the lats, obliques, and serratus muscles to strengthen & stretch our way to a more spacious state of being. There's a lot packed into this class, so you're sure to enjoy it and get a lot out of it.

In this class, we move & breathe as we always do on our mats. But the focus is on enjoying the here and now. It is good to stop periodically and remind ourselves that life is not always about progress & results. Being able to appreciate where we are and what we have at this moment is very importa...

A lot of us have a head position that sits forward of neutral in our day to day posture. This can cause a lot of tension and strain in the muscles of the head, neck, and shoulders. In today's class, we work to relieve some of this tension and get the head and neck back into a neutral position. Yo...

In today's class, we work to create opening across the chest so that we can be and feel open-hearted. Much of the time we might be sitting or standing in sub-optimal posture, which typically means that our shoulders are slumped forward. We'll work to counteract this habit in class, opening across...

This class is PACKED with movement, get ready to sweat! In today's class, we focus on creating mobility & stability in our feet so that we can feel great. Much of the time our feet don't get as much attention as they deserve, especially when they're shoved into shoes or just not being used. When ...

In this class, we'll use the metaphor of the washing machine to create a sense of freedom built on strength and connection to the core. We'll rotate both the pelvis & ribcage around the central axis. And we'll rinse & repeat of some of the movements in the sequence, allowing the brain to relax as...

Today we'll focus on the placement of the hips as we move around the mat. Our goal will often be to square the hips in a certain direction and find a neutral pelvis. When we do this, our hips will have the most mobility because we'll have access to their full range of motion. We will also be able...

In this class, we work to unfurl our wings. And, by wings, I mean our latissimus dorsi muscles, better known as lats. We will both lengthen and strengthen these muscles that run from the arms all the way down the back to the top of the pelvis, attaching to the spine along the way. We'll be doing ...

In this class, we work to smooth out the rough edges of our beings. Yoga is a great opportunity to check in on where you feel tight or open and whether you feel balanced from one side to the other. Use this class to tune in and tune up your body so you can feel great!
