  • Balancing Your Energy | New Moon Yoga

    Summer is here and our energy is peaking - not only upwards but outwards. We may feel pulled to "do" everything at once, start a bunch of new things, share our energy everywhere but is this sustainable? There is time - time to enjoy, savor, explore, experience the summer with mindfulness and at...

  • Yoga for Energetic Grounding | Full Body

    Ever feel as if you have picked up too much of others energy or situations in your life have you feeling overwhelmed with nervous energy?

  • Core on the Floor | Side B | Core Strength & Awareness

    The core is one of THE most important areas of our bodies - and one of the spaces we don't love working out. The core helps hold us up, protect our back, support every movement we make, hold our organs in place, and more. Today we are working the Side B or prone positions for core where we are ...

  • Core on the Floor | Side A | Hands Free Core Strength & Awareness

    Our core is a powerhouse that keeps us upright, supports our back, allows us to move in so many different ways, and holds our organs in place. And, it's often one of the weakest areas of our bodies - especially as we age. Whatever your core condition - this class is for you. We stay on the flo...

  • Yoga Stretches for Rotator Cuff Strength & Mobility

    Rotator cuff injuries are one of the top injuries as we age - whether it be because of overuse, changing bone structures, or hauling a suitcase overhead (and yes, I know some who have injured it exactly like this). To protect our shoulders, we can build some basic movements into our lives to mai...

  • Rotator Cuff Yoga for Strength & Mobility

    Rotator cuff injuries happen more often than we would like to admit - often from acute injury (lifting overhead of swinging a heavy object overhead), repetitive use, or the simple fact that as we age sometimes our bones grow little "spurs" that can make the shoulders painful. So, let's keep this...

  • Yoga Stretch for Elbow Strength & Mobility

    We don't often think about our elbows...until they don't feel great. What if we would take a few minutes to give them a massage, move them through their range of motion, and strengthen the muscles around them as well as build awareness? Healthy elbows begin here...

    Props: something comfortabl...
