This is a 30-minute Restorative Flow performed exclusively while lying down on your back. Put on some comfortable lounge clothes and cozy socks and get ready to deeply relax while addressing the needs of your hamstrings, groin, hips, and spine. This class will help you replenish your energy reserves through mindful movement and conscious attention to the breath. The flow starts and ends with dirga pranayama, an incredibly calming and grounding way of breathing. End in classic savasana or in legs up the wall, it is entirely up to you. And yes, a slow yoga class counts as a practice. We cannot just chaturanga our way to well-being. Being well requires balance. I invite you to give yourself permission to slow down and gently nurture your body and heart. Enjoy!

Episode 39: Winter Chill Reclined Flow

Flow with Me Yoga is a podcast for passionate yogis looking to roll out their mats and get right to it. No long intros, disclaimers, or ads, just a guided Vinyasa yoga flow recorded specifically for listening and flowing along. The podcast offers three types of classes – Classic Flow, Gentle Flow, and Power Flow. Gentle Flow offers a slower pace and longer holds. This is not a euphemism for a watered down asana practice. Gentle flow is a legit flow class. Classic Flow offers a mid-line of intensity and pace. Get ready for chaturanga pushups along with power elements in standing postures. Power Flow kicks the levels of intensity up a notch with core work in high planks, holds at bottoms on chaturanga pushups, and standing series that build on one another. Your legs will feel it the next day. So will your arms and core. Is getting stronger not what you came here for? Come flow with me! For more information, visit www.flowwithme.yoga
This podcast is intended for experienced yogis. Please listen to your body and go at your own pace. For your safety, make sure you are healthy enough to practice yoga. By listening to this podcast, you are accepting full responsibility for your practice.

This is a 40-minute Classic Flow. This class features a well-rounded, continuous flow that invites you to connect not only with the breath, but your whole expansive being. Move, feel, breathe, enjoy. That is my mantra for this class. We flow through a slow warm-up, then proceed on to Sun Salutations emphasizing posterior chain strength, and then settle into dynamic standing postures that twist, expand, and open. We wrap up with gentle hip opening and backbending, and coast into a peaceful savasana. Modifications and options are offered to help you listen to your body and honor its needs in each moment of the practice. Enjoy!

Episode 46: Expansive Nature Classic Flow

This is a 30-Minute Gentle Flow. This class is my offering to the mood of “I can’t even”. Wear your socks and pjs and lie down on the carpet or on your bed. No mat or athletic clothes needed. We will stay close to the ground (mostly on the back) and get lulled into relaxation and ease with simple, satisfying stretches and lots of mindful breathing. Don’t overthink it. Just lie down and let me guide you. Ideally done in the evening, this class can be enjoyed whenever you need a restful pause. If you need a few moments to yourself and have zero energy to spare, this class is for you. Enjoy!

Episode 45: Nourish & Restore Reclined Flow

This is a 35-Minute Gentle Flow. Whether you have had a sedentary day or a day full of active pursuits, this breath-focused class will address it all and restore physical comfort, presence, and inner peace. We begin with a few mellow half- sun-salutations, savoring the easy inversion bliss of the forward fold, then move on to lengthening/opening the front body and un-creasing the hip fold with sphynx, bound locust, and three rounds of bridge. The rest of class is focused on hip opening with reclined figure 4 stretch, runner’s lunge, and half- pigeon. Extended child's pose invites us to draw inward and to settle there deeply. We finish with presence-building seated stretches and a few moments of calming breathwork. If you are looking for a serene vibe and a way to unwind physical and mental tension that accumulated during the day, this class is for you. Enjoy!

Episode 44: Evening Reset Gentle Flow

This is a 35-Minute Power Flow. We begin standing and proceed right into a ladder flow practice - each round of Sun Salutations progressively builds on the previous one. We revisit postures again and again, while growing our range, strength, and presence. We do not stay in postures long, and this is a true breath to movement practice. The framework of this flow consists of lunging Sun Salutations, and each time we come through, we add on power transitions, prone backbends, standing postures, and balance postures. We build up to extended hand to foot pose (utthita hasta padangusthasana) and full side plank (vashisthasana). This class winds down with twists, side body lengthening, and a tad of corework. If you are looking to move, breathe, and be challenged, this class is for you. If you don’t feel like being challenged, this class is still for you because, as always, lots of modifications are offered. Enjoy!

Episode 43: Express Ladder Power Flow

This is a 45-Minute Classic Flow. We start standing, and we don’t stop moving for the next 40 minutes. This class is a tribute to a centering, movement-as-meditation practice. We cover virtually all the standing postures, so if you are a fan of warrior sequences, this may be your kind of class. The pace is the pace of measured breath. The difficulty level is accessible to most. The experience overall is what asana is all about - returning to the body again and again, feeling the breath, noting the heartbeat, and being fully present. If you are craving a deep in-the-body experience through yoga, this class is for you. It offers a well-rounded asana practice grounded in the vinyasa tradition. Enjoy!
