GLUTES, HIPS & LEG STRENGTH
  • Oct 19: Gluteal Focus: Strength and Suppleness (no flow)

    This is an unusual sequence that is more "therapeutic" than flow. Expect a classic floor sequence at the start for 10 + minutes releasing the low back and pelvis, a series of fitness-like repetitive movements for strengthening and toning the gluteals. Strong holds in high lunge to recruit hip ext...

  • Nov 4: Hips & Hamstrings Delight - Int/Adv

    60 min asana hips and hamstrings focus.

  • Feb 1: Extremely Gluteal

    This is 60 min set integrates repetitive glute-centric movements. This is designed to target all aspects of your glutes. Sweaty set!

  • Feb 8: Hips, Hamstrings & Good Glutes Practice

    This is a trifecta practice integrating hamstrings, gluteals and hip openers in one class. The glutes segment feels therapeutic and strengthening.

  • 30 min Glutes!

    This is a quick n' dirty hit for strengthening your gluteals + a few postures to create suppleness into muscular tension to compliment.

  • Feb 22: Juicy Hips & Glute work (Moderate Practice)

    Today is Monday - meaning a glute/hip centric practice. Today there is more hip work than gluteal work from previous weeks. Enjoy!

  • March 8: All Gluteals

    Half the class is on the ground doing repetitive movements to encourage strengthening of the gluteals as well as releasing into the pelvis. Standing holds as well. Always a favourite.

  • March 22; Glutes - Moderate Intensity

    This is a gluteal focus practice with repetitive movements designed to consciously recruit the backs of the legs and area of gluteal folds. It is a simple, not typical flow and moderate in intensity. Enjoy!

  • April 12: Hip & Gluteal Flow

    This is a building full body sequence that includes lots of leg work, glute work and deep juicy openings for the intercostals, spine and hips. Enjoy! A few little arm balances here and there too.

  • May 17: The 4-Hips: Unlock Creativity

    This is a practice that integrates four of my favourite longer holds in the hips as a steady peak: head behind ankle (or modify) lunge, a pigeon with foot hold, and hanumanasana (splits options). As well as full frog pose and a deep savasana.

  • May 24: Glutes: Int/Advanced * Fave Practice

    This is a bit gruelling and sweaty! But in a good way. Expect: repetition in sets of bridges, bridge variations, hands n knees glute pulses. This warms the full body but is all about the glutes!

  • June 7: Bridges & Bikini Assana (Glutes;)

    Our gluteals lose shape and strength because we sit too darn much! Expect tons of repetitive pulses into the "gluteal fold" and in various positions. As well as longer holds, pulsing airplanes...bridges.

  • Summer Solstice from (2021, 60 min - Tech diff this week!) Glutes & Hips

    This is from last Solstice last year. Unfortunately, this morning's class had tech issues. One of my favourite practices that works into the gluteals and hips via longer holds and pulsing practices. Sweaty and satisfying.

    Today's practice includes gluteal and hip work. A systems work in symbiosis with one another.

  • July 26: Hips & Gluteals - Moderate Practice

    Today's practice is intermediate in intensity

    This is a 60 min intermediate flow practice with a focus on opening the shoulders and hips.

  • Feb 10: Full Body Long-Form Traditional (62 min)

    This is a traditional vinyasa (intermediate) longer practice - one of my faves as it targets the entire body and spectrum of poses. From warming vinyasa sequence, one-legged balancing poses, hip openers, backbends and a closing shoulder stand sequence.

  • Feb 7: Long-Form Practice to Bird of Paradise: (75 min)

    This is an intermediate vinyasa practice beginning with 7 min or so of warmup. We do several "vinyasas" toi a peak pose (Bird of Paradise). Expect all of the warriors, half moon, chapasana and hip opening sequences as well, and closing backbend sequence.

  • Nov 25: Hip Flow (60 min)

    This is a classic flow sequence with lunging vinyasas, warriors and a sprinkling of consistent hip openers - ending with a few basic backbends. It is intermediate in energy.

  • Nov 13: Quick Hips for Athletes (30 min)

    This is a floor sequence that includes longer holds for the hamstrings, deep gluteals, glutes medius/IT band and quads. I recommend you have pillows and towels to pad up sensitive knees.

    This is a long-form/traditional hip flow for almost 75 mins of flow and ten minutes of breathwork. The peak pose we work towards is a deep hip opener called Bird of Paradise.
