To abide by the yogic virtue of ahimsa (non-harming), we can challenge our harmful thought patterns and build a dialogue of self-love with our inner witness.

Explore ahimsa (non-harming) by chanting and embodying the mantra “lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu” and practicing peace as we move through warrior postures as a moving prayer for a non-violent world. Flow through heart-opening backbends, twists, and warrior poses with the mantra in mind: May all...

Focus on arm balances such as wild thing (camatkarasana) and side plank (vasisthasana) to connect with the center of yourself that feels unshakable.

Practice kindness toward yourself with spinal mobility and an open heart.

This down-tempo, hip-centric practice is a sanctuary for the overwhelmed and overworked soul. Sometimes ahimsa (non-harming) is easier to practice with others than it is with ourselves. It’s not uncommon for your mind to keep pushing when your body and spirit are begging for a break.

Use your practice as a tool to tap into satya, a yogic concept ruling truthfulness. Explore false judgements by deliberately releasing tension and emotions stuck in your hips and shoulders.

Backbends help to discover where truth lives in our bodies, from the throat to the heart to the hips. Explore a variety of back-bending and hip opening postures in this practice.

Discover the truth (satya) that lies underneath the ego in this balancing practice. Begin with hamstring stretches before blossoming into a short standing balancing sequence.

This versatile, full-spectrum class offers several moments of choice for you to amp up or dial down depending on how you are f...

A heart-opening practice with an emphasis on asteya, one of the five yamas (yogic ethical restraints), and loosely translates as “non-stealing.” Asteya means so much more than simply not taking something from another without his or her permission. In the subtler dimensions of this teaching, astey...

How do we show up as a contribution to each experience in our lives?

Start with a breath practice followed by simple yet intense movements that build a connection to the muscles, energy, and intelligence of the core.

Commit to giving rather than taking from any experience. Explore some exhilarating breath work and warrior poses that support us to stand strong in our integrity.

This practice serves up a well-rounded journey that offers simple ways to support your serenity and stave off stress. “Don’t do a lot where a little will do” is a little proverb packed with lots of wisdom. All too often we get consumed with complexity and end up feeling robbed of time and energy.

Explore the yogic virtue of moderation (brahmacharya). As we follow a tempered path, learn to only take what we need rather than use energy or resources in excess. Root with standing postures to guide us to a place of presence with how we receive and expend our energy.

Explore the balance between the solar (active) energies and the lunar (passive) energies, with a fun flow of poses and pranayams (breath practices). Begin with the mantra (chant): Om Aim Klim Sauh.

Embrace your back body and the unconscious thoughts and emotions that we harbor. As we work to integrate the energies and motivations of both the front and back body, we will discover our truly balanced and holistic sense of self.

The Sanskrit word brahmacharya is about the right use of energy. As we practice hip-openers such as pigeon pose (eka pada rajakapotasana) we can work on directing our energy toward having peace and acceptance with whatever arises.

This downtempo practice includes standing and grounded hip-openers and other Earth-centric poses to help you reconnect with your base and find your sense of steady resilience.

Aparigraha is a Sanskrit word that means non-grasping.

With backbending postures such as locust (salabhasana) and chest expansi...

In our continued exploration of aparigraha (non-attachment), we will begin to strip away all of our identities: both personally and professionally, individually and collectively.

Soften any attachment to egotistical tendencies through a series of floor poses that open the hips and hamstrings.

Cultivate the equanimity to enjoy the journey through poses that invite our curiosity like tree (vrksasana) and front splits (hanumanasana). Equanimity is defined as having an “even mind." In other words, a mind not riding the seesaw of attachment to expectations and aversion to what emerges in t...
