The biggest thing in this world, bigger than the ocean and the sky, is your HEART.” —Do Hyun Choe
Today we start standing for an energizing flow of Sun Sal B variations that include leg strengthening chair poses and chest opening twists — all with the intent to reduce stress and anxiety and start the day with an open and loving heart.
ONE DROP Today’s class focuses on side bends — slowly moving through the frontal plane to prepare for our standing flow that builds into triangle and half moon. We end our month considering what it means when one drop of action makes a ripple that expands out from the mat and into the world.
Feeling a little stressed today? Or a lot? This class will relax your hips and hopefully your mind to “let go and let be.” We do some grounding breathwork and end in a triangle flow to help us create more flexibility – on and off the mat. ♥
How is your heart feeling today? And your hips? Today’s class will give you the space and time to listen — to see what wisdom your body is trying to tell you. We start with a slow-moving floor practice and move into a guided meditation followed by a gentle psoas stretching flow.
The poses and sequences in today’s class are very grounding – perfect before embarking on any new adventure or venture! We start on our backs and move into an active vinyasa warrior flow building on what we practiced on Tuesday. My wish for you is that you’ll leave your mat feeling strong and grounded with joy and openness to start your day!
This is a short month for Morning Dharma (no classes between Oct 11 – 20) so there’s no formal theme. Instead we’ll trust that whatever dharma we need to consider will arise. This class is an active vinyasa warrior flow utilizing both sides of our mats…and brains!
This practice is perfect for coming back to the mat after taking a break from your practice. Whether due to travel, vacation, injury, or illness, it’s important to start with a grounding practice before moving into a more vigorous flow.
Today we play! We’ll test our balance through a table-based core sequence and later with a gate-based half-moon sequence, ultimately leaving us an “open” chest and heart.
A perfect summer morning flow — we start out slowly opening the chest and working through the spine, open and stretch the hips, and then move into an invigorating Sun Sal A&B flow. A feel-good flow that will hopefully leave you smiling and ready for the day!
A continuation of Tuesday’s class – we start slowly warming up the arms, shoulders, and hips and then move into a Sun Sal B flow with twists. A feel-good flow for a balmy Thursday!
