Sometimes yoga teachers, myself included FOR SURE, give alignment cues that just don't click. This is a very short video about "LIFTING THE HIP POINTS UP"

What other cues have you heard teachers (including me!) say that just don't click for you?? I'm still trying to sort out "hollow the arm pits" 🤷‍♀️🤔

Happy Friday, yogis! An Ustrasana Flow to help you feel good and your heart wide open!

Are you a Camel pose fan or a skeptic?! If this pose falls into the discomfort range for you, feel free to reach out and I may be able to give you some specific strategies to help 🐪😍

Enjoy your practice!

In Yoga you will often hear certain poses described as "heart opening" -- which is basically yoga teacher poetry for we'll be doing some backbends! 🙂 This mo...

Happy Hump Day, yoga friends!!

My very first yoga teacher instilled a love of backbends in me -- they have always been a group of postures that I have enjoyed BUT I enjoy them a heck of a lot more if I am nicely prepared for them and keep conscious engagement through the process.

These are some of the key actions I always try to keep in mind when practicing Ustrasana or Camel pose. Hope you can join me tomorrow where we'll be honing into the action of the shoulders, the legs, the glutes and the hips to have your most comfortable camel pose ever 🙌

I may be giving myself this reminder a lot this week -- hope you can join me on the mat this Thursday for practice!

Hey friends!! So we have Tropical Storm Zeta headed our way in Pensacola overnight -- class will hopefully stay on for tomorrow 🤞but I will confirm on the morning of internet/power is still in place for us!!

Zeta strengthened back into a hurricane early Wednesday as it approaches the Gulf Coast, bringing life-threatening storm surge with it.

Happy Friday! In this week's exploration of revolved twists, we will be exploring BINDS in twists -- having a strap is recommended for this class as an arm lengthener ♥️👍

Also, NOVEMBER is right around the corner -- if you have requests for something you're working on, please reach out to me to let me know!

Enjoy your practice! 🧘‍♀️

Yoga is on for tomorrow at 9:30 CST!

Also, a few soap box items on this meme 😂
1) please, no socks in yoga unless you are doing a full on Restorative. 🧦

2) yoga may be challenging at times, it may be hard, but it should NOT be painful -- listen to your body's pain signals and learn to know the difference between something being UNCOMFORTABLE that you can learn to sit with and breathe through and learn from vs something that is PAINFUL which means you HAVE PERMISSION TO STOP. Just because "no pain no gain" rhymes doesn't make it true ✋🎤
