Opening flow and five hip and IT band asanas.

Today's practice focuses mostly on the hips and inner groins. We begin with a deeply relaxing belly massage and end with neck releases. Enjoy!

Legs, hips and glutes...get rid of restless legs. An overall lower body practice.

A fun sweaty flowy practice including handstand hops, headstand, shoulderstand, wheel pose and pigeon variations.

Monday is sometimes hard to get moving! We begin slow and do a handful of yin poses for the hips followed by sometime more heating standing poses. Enjoy!

A hip practice beginning with three longer holds into "firelog" pose, a long forward fold into the hamstrings. Breathe into your hips into some of my favourite poses that hit all of the sweet spots.

A typical hit-the-hips kinda class. Lots of lunges and work into externally rotating the hips. Enjoy! Sorry if you missed the LIVE link today.

A series of lunges, psoas work, hip openings and backbends. Intermediate intensity. Have a strap available.

We begin with a 3 minute brief anatomy lesson on the psoas major and iliacus. As well as a brief look at the two diaphragms in your body. We then work into your hip flexors integrating this awareness and for some of you, new knowledge. Enjoy!

This is a usual set integrating shining skull breath with three hip openers. A good one to match with the following restorative class. Enjoy!

This is a steady paced, nothing-crazy hip sequence. Enjoy!

Today begins with longer holds into the hips followed by a basic intermediate practice integrating the hamstrings as well. Nothing-fancy-feel-good. Enjoy!

I share a 3 min long clip from a teacher (Dispenza) on the sympathetic nervous system + what the HPA axis looks like. The practice is mainly on your feet: a basic feel good flow into the hips and a few backbends near the end.

Enjoy!

Punchy breaths are thrown into this one hour sequence to encourage more of a cleansing action. Into the hips, we go!

Begins with short tutorial & visual presentation of hips.

Followed with a deep and delicious hip sequence.

One hour hip-focused yin practice.

Today's practice is therapeutic one beginning with a quick visual on what and where the IT band and TFL live. The practice that follows works to release and bring blood flow into the TFL, the IT band and whole hip. It is more informative and therapeutic, than it is sweaty.

We use "shining skull" breath into the neck, into a spinal rotation and the hips. We end supine with restorative three-parts breathing as a segueway into our restorative practice.

Hips and Hamstrings Class: Variations of lunges and Warriors orienting the hips at all angles. Variations are available for all levels, however, some examples of intense poses are:

Head behind the ankle, bound triangle, bound half moon balancing, variation of hanuman (splits) and a variation of ...

This is a top-down approach to opening the body in a restorative way from the neck, to the shoulders, chest, spine and pelvis we work our way down the body in a restorative manner. Ending with simple breath and kumbhakas (breath holds) to savasana.

This practice focuses on one legged balancing postures: airplane variations, tree pose, utthita hasta padangustasana, dancer w/ strap, Warrior 3, half moon/ poets pose, chapasana, standing splits...Bird of Paradise.

You will need a block or solid pillow for class. We begin with core work, bridge sets and a vinyasa set with a block, encouraging the entire midline of the body towards balance. We work gradual standing poses into Bird of Paradise, a few backbends, then rest. Enjoy!

There is nothing fancy here but oooh it feels good. Sloooowww. Making simple advanced is my specialty. Expect: Warrior One, Two, Triangle, Side Angle Pose, a twist, side plank, and a few back bends, core + forward fold. Literally 10 or so poses over the length of an hour. This is good for patien...

In harmony with this ceremonious time of year we move sweaty and flowy into a progressive hip-flow toward Bird of Paradise (Svarga Dvidasana). This time of year is the shortest and darkest. Ritual after you finish could include journaling, Intention setting, burning a log on fire, burning your wi...
