In this Zoom Yoga Workout we take the focus back to Yoga with Weights, which means we're looking to build strength, period! We start things off in Child's Pose, our start of choice for October, taking a moment to slow things down, quiet our minds, and find our breath. From there we do yoga without weights, previewing a kick-ass sequence that we'll add resistance to later, Side Plank, Reverse Warrior, Extended Side Angle, Half Moon & Triangle. That's a mouthful! Then we add the weights and do our thing. There's a gradual build to the class, with each pose and sequence leading to the next. I LOVED this workout, and I know it sounds a little cheesy because I'm the one teaching, but the for-real focus on the poses above was awesome.

So, we haven't done the 'hold the pose yoga' thing for quite a while! And to make up for lost time - we're making our way through a challenging sequence today! We kick things off by first flowing through poses we'll hold later, getting them in our bodies. Then we hold each of the poses we moved through, focused on alignment and building up our stamina. If you don't usually hold poses for too long, I really recommend this workout. It's nice to mix in with the Vinyasa, flow-y style classes! And we wrap things up with a little headstand fun :)

We have a dual focus in this Livestream Yoga Workout: Core + Flexibility. We start off in Child's Pose, taking a moment to slow things down and find our breath. Then we dive in with a short warmup, focused on stretching the back of our body while engaging the front of our body, beginning to activate our core. Then we alternate between flexibility focused sequences and core focused HIIT drills. It's a great combo and one of my favorite practices!

Another full hour of Yoga with Weights...woohoo!! We kick things off by first doing yoga without weights, getting a few key poses and sequences in our bodies before adding resistance. Our main sequence is a challenging Reverse Warrior, Extended Side Angle, Triangle, Half Moon series. We then move into a weighted Cat & Cow series, building strength both in our core and backs. And we wrap things up with a couple straight up Core focused sequences. Yoga with Weights...get stronger!

We turn the focus back to flexibility in this Livestream Yoga Workout, specifically in our hamstrings and backs. A Crescent flow kicks things off, warming our bodies for more challenging poses to come. We come in and out of a few poses over and over, so each time I want you to focus on going a little bit further, pushing your flexibility. This was an awesome workout!

A full hour of Yoga with Weights...woohoo!! I'm so happy to bring this class back on Wednesday at lunch :) We play around with a Reverse Warrior, Triangle, Half Moon series, first without the weights, and then adding resistance. We wrap things off with a short headstand practice. If you're looking to get stronger...DO THIS CLASS.

It's all about building strength & stability in the middle of our bodies in this Core focused Lifestream Class. We kick things off seated, our start of choice for September, taking a moment to find our beginning. From there we dive into a fun Warrior Two Series, warming things up, which will come in handy for Core focused poses down the road. This class was a ton of FUN! Or at least as fun as a core focused class can be :)

We turn the focus to Balance in this Livestream Yoga Workout, which means we're going to be standing on one leg...a lot! Other than the usual suspects like Tree & Eagle, we focus primarily on Warrior Three and Half Moon Pose, challenging ourselves with tricky transitions in and out of each. First we create strong anchors within each pose, then slowly peel those away finding 'for real' focus!

In this Livestream Yoga Workout the focus is on flexibility; specifically building space and mobility in our hips, hamstrings & quads. We kick class off seated, taking a moment to slow things down as well as check in with our hips & lower back. From there we dive into a sweet flow designed to open up our hips and hamstrings. Then we dive deeper, holding flexibility poses longer, creating even more space! We wrap things off with a 5 minute Tripod Headstand practice. A perfect class to build space and mobility in your lower body.

In this Livestream Yoga Workout the name of the game is standing Balance...which means we'll do a lot of standing on one leg! We kick things off seated, taking a moment to slow things down and focus on our breath. Then we dive in with a short warmup, practicing creating strong anchors within poses. Warrior Three & Half Moon pose are the poses we focus on the most, finding challenging transitions as we make our way in and out of each. Then we wrap thing up with a mini Tripod Headstand workshop at the end. If you'd like to work on balance then this is definitely the class for you!

In this Livestream, Yoga with Weights workouts, we're focused on building strength, period! The kind of strength that's tough to build with just yoga alone. After a short Weighted Salutation, we dive in with a challenging Weighted Crescent Flow Series. We move through Crescent, Standing Splits, a Basic Twist & Rotated Half Moon, first without the weights to get the sequence in our bodies, and then we add the resistance. We wrap things up with some hands & knees action followed by core. This was a good one and really packs a punch!

In this Livestream yoga Workout the focus is on flexibility; specifically building space and mobility in our shoulders, backs & hamstrings. For most of our flow today we alternate pose & then counterpose (think of backbends followed by forward bends) come in and out of each over and over, going deeper as we progress. By the end you'll feel an incredible amount of space, especially in the shoulder girdle. This one was a good one :)

We turn the focus back to CORE in this Livestream Yoga Workout, building strength, stamina & stability in the middle of our bodies. We kick things off seated, our start of choice for September, taking a moment to find our beginning. From there we dive into a fun Warrior One Salutation, creating space in both our backs and shoulder girdle, which will come in handy for Core focused poses down the road. I also pepper in both Crow and Tripod Headstand throughout the class, each time upping the ante with a more challenging variation. This class was FUN! It has a great flow and we really hit our stride by the middle of the workout.

In this Livestream Yoga Class, we turn the focus back to balance. But instead of the 'moment of balance' where we do Tree on the right, then the left, and get back to the flow. We kick each sequence off with standing on one leg, using Warrior Three as the transition. Tree, & Eagle are our balance poses of choice. We wrap things off with a sweet 5 Minute Tripod Headstand Workshop. This is the perfect class for developing focus!

We take the focus back to flexibility in this Livestream Yoga Workout, specifically creating space and mobility in our hamstrings, hips, back & shoulders. We kick class off in Child's Pose, taking a few moments to slow things down and focus. From there it's a slow and steady build, with a lot of flow. We alternate coming in and out of different poses, each time pushing ourselves to go a little deeper. This yoga class has a fantastic pace to it and is perfect if your looking to create flexibility fro head to toe!

In this Livestream Yoga Workout we turn the focus back to building strength by doing a little 'hold the pose yoga', meaning we're holding poses most likely longer than you (or I) want to. But it's in the holding of each yoga pose that we build strength, stability & stamina. We take 2 main sequences, alternating between upper and lower body poses. This is the perfect class if you're also looking for help with alignment in your practice!
