Description

Are you looking for the perfect daily hatha yoga class that you can do anywhere? For this yoga class you don’t even need a yoga mat and you could do it outside or when you are travelling on vacation. The entire class is done standing so it is incredibly versatile to be able to practice this class whenever and wherever you want!

We begin with a standing twist to stimulate energy flow and circulation throughout your entire body, plus it will take your spine through rotation and release your back.

Standing Cat/Cow takes your spine through flexion and extension and will open up your chest, release your diaphragm and improve your breathing.

Our dynamic lunges will release your back, groin, and support you in balance and releasing what no longer serves.

The wide-legged side bend takes your spine through lateral flexion and will continue to open up your breathing capacity.

Standing Knee to chest and figure four pose will allow you to continue to practice your balancing and offer a deep opening of the hips. Additionally it will support you in digestion.

I hope you love this variation of extended tadasana where you will roll through your feet to strengthen your arches, open up your chest for breathing, add some jumping to stimulate your bone density, metabolism, increase the circulation of lymph, strengthen your heart, and increases vitality.

Our variation of chair pose not only builds strength in your legs but opens your chest and improves shoulder mobility.

Dancer pose is fantastic to release your psoas/hip complex and quads. It will also open your heart and activate your thyroid.

We did a fun variation of boat pose to build your core strength and balance.

Our final pose was malasana and uttanasana to open your hips, lower back, and hamstrings. It was also good for digestion and we added some thoracic rotations to the malasana.

Of course we finished with some sitting meditation where we offered some loving awareness to our nervous system through breath awareness.
