This class is all about the flow, the feeling, and the energy of the practice. I spend a lot of the time instructing through the musculoskeletal system and getting very specific about alignment. But it's good to let some of that go and just move and breathe. This audio class is all about plugging in to sensation and channeling energy through the body. We'll do an all-around practice but focus mostly on backbends. Strong but options for all levels. (All Levels/65 minutes)

Forearm Stand/Pincha Mayurasana prep and practice using the wall. Need a bit of extra time to work on this pose? We often don't have time to really break it down in crowded studio classes, so here is just what you need to insert into your home practice. I'll guide you through a bit of muscular activation and then instruct slow and steady attempts at the wall. Great way to build strength and familiarity with the inversion so that you can *eventually* work on balancing away from the wall.(Intermediate/8 Minutes)

Scorpion Pose, Inverted Staff, and the means to get there! Here's a full length practice with a bit of flow and a bit of detailed work on some tough backbends. If you have time, I suggest starting with some slow warm ups as detailed in my ‘prepare for bigger backbends' blog post. We'll use a wall, a strap, and two yoga bricks. If you do not have two bricks you can use two hardback books of the same size, or follow the alternatives given in the podcast. Have fun and enjoy the buzz!

Demanding and uncomplicated. In this audio yoga practice we will side bend, twist, and float into handstand and side crow pose. Short and sweet without being rushed. We will start small and calm, build up intensity, and take it back down so you finish feeling balanced. Energising and fun. Enjoy! (Intermediate/18 minutes)

Handstand can be incredibly daunting, but there is indeed a path leading up to it. One of the first things you can do is start incorporating some practice at the wall. All you need is a wall, or a door, or a refrigerator you don't mind banging in to. Set your mat and self up facing the wall, do down-dog and follow my clear instructions to hop up like a normal person and develop your strength and confidence in handstanding. (Intermediate/ 5 minutes)
