14 minute core blast that I named ‘gentle’ strength because I feel this work is very deep but isn’t overly intense in the sense of it requiring a huge amount of energy or aggression. I was inspired by the name from the manipura chakra, the idea of the naval area as relating to fire, not a blazing inferno but a gentle warming hearth.

My favourite blend – quick, little intense at times, steady, grounding and moving into other patterns we don’t often focus on, it’s so necessary for our joints and muscles  to move outside our ordinary habit’s (and that includes our yoga practice).  We focus on rotation and inner thighs.  We isolate and then flow through a little vinyasa sequence.

This class begins by creating space in the rib cage before going deep with the abdominals. You need a pilates ball or a rolled up towel and block might do

This is a 25 minute uplifting practice, it has a shoulder and upper body edge to it, we start with the mobilsation of the spine and then explore some playful kick throughs, that give you an option to move into crab reach. Expect to get you heart going and some fire in your shoulders (and legs).

This class starts slow but builds into a nice full body ‘gentle’ strengthening class, you will feel the burn for sure! It is different to my usual strength for yoga classes, as its more pilates inspired, there are some familiar moves with an added strengthening and opening layer to it. Loved teaching a variation of this in person in Clare.

A lower body focused class to build strength and support the ankles, hips and hamstrings – 2 blocks

This is a strong intermediate practice where we build towards headstand or forearm stand. Lots of work on shoulders and core, I have threaded through a fun alternative sun flow that will sure to build heat. We finish with a gentle inversion and breath practice.
