1 month of pure love with Selina in our lives ❤️🥰

07/05/2024

We got engaged! 💍❤️

Words can’t describe how happy and grateful I feel every single day to have you in my life. 🥰

I can’t wait to spend the rest of our lives together! 😍

11/04/2024

It’s about time I shared my big news with you! 🤰🏻 I’m now 20 weeks pregnant! Our baby girl is due at the end of August! 🩷🐣

I’m officially halfway through the pregnancy at this point and I couldn’t be happier! Feeling beyond grateful and blessed every single day. 🌟

Initially I wanted to take some time away from social media to process the news and adjust to this new phase of my life, which is why I’ve been absent on here.

However, now that it’s springtime and nature is blossoming back to life, I’m also feeling a new shift in energy within myself. 🌸 I feel ready to come out of my little cocoon and get back to sharing about yoga and about my life. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Since getting pregnant I definitely feel a difference in the way I approach my yoga / fitness practice, as well as my self-care, eating habits and overall mindset towards myself and towards womanhood/motherhood.

I’ll share more about that in the coming weeks. For now, I just wanted to say I’m very grateful to have the support of my partner, my family and my friends! 🙏🏻❤️

NEW: 15min Shoulder Flexibility & Mobility | Yoga Stretch video is up on YouTube!

Link: https://youtu.be/FLuROX6VUlA

Join me for a juicy 15min upper body stretch session targeting the shoulder girdle muscles, pecs & thoracic spine.

Props: x1 Strap (or a belt/towel) + x2 Blocks (or a chair/sofa/countertop)

In this class we'll work on opening the shoulders, chest and upper back to create mobility and improve flexibility in the whole upper body and spine.

We'll start the class by warming up the shoulders with some shoulder rolls - an exercise that takes the shoulders through Elevation, Depression, Protraction and Retraction to create heat & awareness of the area.

Then, we perform some shoulder flossing with the strap by creating circles with the arms, followed by some micro flossing in the sticky areas + spinal twists.

Then, we take it to the floor for some thoracic opening with Puppy & Cat/Cow variations using the blocks/sturdy surface.

We end the class with Broken Wing pose for some deep chest opening, followed by x5 expansive Cobra lifts to activate the back muscles and lengthen the front body.

Enjoy!

Join me for a quick 15min power flow for core strength & stability, spinal mobility & back health.

In this class we'll strengthen the front & back core, as well as mobilize the spine through its full range of motion by exploring side bending, flexion & extension.

We'll also strengthen the upper body, especially the shoulders, chest & triceps, as well as the legs and glutes. We'll work on balance and coordination, both of which require deep core strength & stability.

Some of the postures we'll explore include Warrior 3, Side Plank, Wild Thing, Cobra, High Lunge, Goddess, Malasana (yogi's squat), Bridge and Boat pose.

By the end of this class you'll feel stronger, more energized & more open in the hips, legs and heart.
