Setting intentions ✨
In around 99% of my classes, we begin by grounding and taking a moment to set an intention. There’s no right or wrong way to do this. It might be a word, a feeling, or simply asking yourself: “What do I need from the next hour?”
This can look different for everyone and can change from class to class. We all roll out our mats for different reasons and that’s what makes yoga so special. It really is for everybody.
As a teacher, I set my own intentions each class too. To support students in moving freely and safely in their bodies, to offer options and variations so everyone feels included, to encourage the use of props like blocks and bolsters, and to create a space that feels supportive, welcoming and non-judgemental.
But as a student, my intentions are often different. Sometimes it’s to slow down, sometimes to rebuild strength, sometimes just to breathe and have an hour to myself.
So I’ll ask you the same question…
What’s your intention today?
Love,
