This flow emphasises side stretch and backbends through postures including reverse warrior, side plank, wild thing, and half camel pose. This class is strong while still deeply felt and expressive. Oh yeah, you'll get some forearm balance practice as well. While we feel these postures we'll learn to feel into the present moment, which is what matters most of all. (All levels/64 minutes)

Everything a bit too fast and in your face? Here's a short, slow, and focused practice to make some space in the body, and while we're at it, the mind and heart. We'll work through releasing the inner thigh muscles mostly, flowing through some squats, standing poses, and folds. Great way to focus energy before meditation or savasana or just as a stand-alone practice. (All levels/30 Minutes)

Squat, stretch and flow through this full-length live class. We will work slowly and steadily to release tension in the inner thigh and hamstring muscle groups through a squat infused flow building up to some targeted work in standing poses and standing balances. We will finish on the floor with some great wide-legged stretches. Importantly, we'll do this with an attitude of kindness and acceptance of our inner goodness, no matter what layers of tightness, tension, or anxiety are on top. (All Levels/60 Minutes)

We'll begin with some dynamic opening followed by pretty straight forward flow with loads of attention on opening across the front of the hips. This energetic chain up the front helps us break through all the stress and tension we accumulate from sitting or scrunching in through stress. After some nice stretching, we'll get detailed about our standing poses and finish with some backbends. Strong but relaxing! (All levels/60 minutes)

This slightly more advanced flow leads up to bird of paradise, eka hasta bhujasana (pictured), and compass pose. It involves patient working with hamstrings, leg and glute strength, and shoulder and chest opening because one way or another you have to get your leg over your shoulder or your shoulder under your leg. Although strong and pretzely, this flow isn't rushed and you will have plenty of time to work in to these tough postures. (Advanced/68 minutes)

We're going to twist while balancing in a number of ways. We'll strengthen core, deepen spinal twist, and learn how to breathe and stay focused through it all. We'll also work on balancing in other ways with some handstand/l-shape hops. This is a sweaty and strong flow but with options for different levels as usual. Labeled intermediate as it may get tough, but most of the shapes are accessible. (Intermediate/65 Minutes)

For years I struggled with and against my hamstrings and sought every way possible to stretch them. But sometimes the indirect path is the best and leads to a more pleasant journey. This practice will stretch the hamstrings by not stretching the hamstrings constantly and directing some attention to the calfs below and the inner thighs to the side of the hamstrings and give you a way of easing tension on the back of the thigh. Add to your warm up or just do on its own. (All levels/19 minutes)
