the perfect wake-up call for spine and hips...with no rotation needed.  we love twists, but sometimes you just don't need them ... when you're doing yoga for two, nursing a back injury, or after that really great burrito you had for lunch. this practice does feature spinal and hip mobility in a big way, though, so you'll feel real good after moving your asana.

in this practice. we pay attention to paying attention. caution: when done properly, this could lead to soreness. key practices include: strongly-held down dog, lunge salutations, sun a's, warrior activations, ab series, and reclined stretches.

the inaugural HANDS FREE FLOW...hint:  it's not about lying on the floor and stretching. key practices include: spine + hip mobility, hands-free stepping up and down, warriors, standing balance, prone backbends, and reclined stretching.

this one starts with seated meditation, takes you through a moving meditation centered in body awareness, and finishes with a soul-soothing Savasana. key practices include: neck and shoulder openers, cat/cow, lunges, sun salutations, warrior 2 series and alignment checks, eagle, tree, sphinx, locust, and pigeon.

a non-traditional route to core stability, this practice focuses on side bending and twisting in upright postures.  enjoy!

a little plank alignment and activation series...you'll get a full-body vinyasa practice that will leave you feeling strong, centered, and in alignment with yourself.

presence is power. getting really into what you're doing is good for your body and your mental health. give this one a whirl and see what a difference it makes when you're really ON.

new thing, y'all. every friday at 4:30p, we're going hands free.  no dogs, no planks, just vinyasa flow with a core strength and full-body flexibility focus. you'll be getting these in your feed on saturdays. hope you (and your shoulders, wrists, and hands) enjoy!

when we want yoga to work for us, we gotta work for it.  that means slowing down, paying attention and getting fully into each asana body, mind, and heart.   we could all use a little coaching on that, so we cooked up this little flow for you.

steady flow, focused on getting full and complete breath cycles.

hamstring, hip, and shoulder stretches FTW.  key practices include: reclined leg stretches -- both passive and active, seated shoulder work, kneeling hip release, salutations, warriors, and reclined twists.

side body opening and strengthening to get yourself clear. key practices include: variations on forward folds, diagonal dog, sun a's, reverse warrior, and side angle.

could your feet use a little TLC? we start this flow with a good 20 minutes of stretching, relaxation, and massage for your hard working soles.   key practices include: hips on a block, manual stretching, paying attention to foot placement and action, solid flow series, grounding backbends, and seated folds.

we start out with a little reminder on how to activate your side bodies, then flow through a keep-it-fresh set of salutations and bring it home with balance, backbends, and relaxation.

we start with straddle mobility and move through simple flow...then back to the floor for shoulder openers and backbends. simple, quick, and effective.

yep, this one's just a plain and simple, but not easy, chance to get on the mat and get moving. key practices include: a lot of salutations. and feeling really good after.

for all the days you need to give your hands, arms, shoulders, or wrists a rest...no arms overhead, no plank, no chaturanga. but you'll get your flow on!

yep, you know your yoga teacher LOVES twists and sidebands. and honestly, if you're not practicing yoga you're probably not getting a lot of them in your day...so now's a good time. plus, if you've got a tennis backhand, a golf swing, yard work, or grocery hauling in your life, having a good twisting practice will go a long way toward making you more efficient at all the things. key practices: sta...
