🍂 Theme of the week: Letting go
We explored this with a mix of grounding and release — warming up with Happy Baby and Thread the Needle, Downward Facing Dog, plank, Bujangasana (Cobra) - moving through twists and folds to squeeze out the tension, before building strength in Chair (Utkatasana) and One-Legged Chair and we worked towards Lizard (Utthan Pristhasana) with deep quad stretch - all the while taking moments to "let it go" in between 🔥 Finishing in svasana with legs in the air to release, and encourage blood flow back to the heart.
And yes… a couple of the gents told me their hips were ruined by end of class — that’s yoga love, right? 😂 How were your hips feeling the next day?
Despite the autumnal nip in the air, the studio soon heated up — the windows were steaming by the end! 😉
✨ Twists and folds are wonderful for:
✨️easing the spine
✨️helping digestion
✨️creating space to breathe a little deeper — perfect for the season of change.
As always, classes brought such amazing energy 🕉 Thank you for joining me as always 🙏
Our Yang/Yin flow had its own beautiful balance — strong and fiery to begin with, then grounding and deeply relaxing to finish. 🌿
