30 minute circular flow: A short and sweet movement practice moving you around the mat in a creative circular exploration, moving through hip releases, spinal articulations and flowing side plank transitions. A delicious movement snack with plenty of floor work and a brief meditation to close.
Build strength with Babe: A practice for days when you feel you have energy and want to build some strength. This practice could be done with babe next to you, and for some portions baby could be in arms. We release through shoulders and wrists, move through springy lunges, squats, warrior two and twists before returning to the ground for a rest and an awareness practice to fill your cup weather you are in savasana, feeding or tending to baby’s needs.
Sneak to Peak: A guided creative flow that starts on the ground but sneaks into a peak sequence rather swiftly, giving you a whole body dynamic practice in 35 minutes. Explorative core work, balances, delicious wiggles to release through upper back and side body, and an opportunity to invert if you want it before closing with a forward fold, a rest, and sound. Enjoy!
Yoga with Babe: A postnatal practice with a focus on regaining a sense of containment through the ribs as we move from the expansion of pregnancy and birth back towards centre. We start standing with movement that can be done with babe in arms, and progress into movements to support strengthening the back body, side bends, shoulder releases, dog pose and a rest at the end.
Into post partum: A practice to honour your transition into post partum. This class can be done with your baby, and includes chanting, gentle movement, and awareness practices to facilitate presence even when attention may be oriented outwardly towards babe. You can do this class 6-8 weeks post partum or once you have had the go ahead from your midwife or doctor. Enjoy :)
Cosy & Quiet pregnancy practice: A very gentle and restful practice for days when you want to rest a lot and move a little. Stays close to the ground and I recommend gathering cosy things - blankets, rugs, bolsters, warm clothes etc to make this moment of your day massively nurturing and cosy.
Attune & Connect: a short & sweet pregnancy practice to attune and connect to yourself, to presence and to babe. We start with a little bit of sound and open into a varied practice that moves around the whole body with lots of options to explore, stretch and release before closing with a meditation.
Floor based hip & upper back release: Find the ground and stay there for a little while. This class is perfect for when you are tired but you still want to move. A relaxing floor based flow that starts with stillness, opens into micro movements to nourish and hydrate the tissues and progresses into a flow that will support releasing through your hips and upper back as you offer your whole system an opportunity to settle and recalibrate. A good one for grounding, to down regulate before bed after a long day, or to release sore or tired legs & hips.
Moving meditation - a floor based flow: a nurturing, somatic, floor based class. Woven throughout is an awareness practice that can be particularly helpful for working with strong emotions, supporting us to go underneath the story/thinking and into the sensory, to hold space for ourselves to process, digest, and come back to presence.
Touch into Presence: A short practice to touch into presence and come home to ourselves. We start with a somatic meditation and continue on to explore contra-lateral movement patterns and integration through the diagonal planes of the body. Open into variations of diagonally oriented backbends with options to play with balances, and quietly build strength whilst cultivating whole body awareness and building our capacity to be present. 36 minutes. Props: Maybe two blocks
Being with & Processing Anger: If you are feeling angry, this practice will give you some tools to work with seeing, being with and processing the emotion in your body. When we get into the raw sensory experience of emotion (energy in motion), it can give the emotion some space to be fully acknowledged and worked through. We will sit with it, get granular about finding where it lives in our body and will move, shake and use breath work to allow some pathways for the anger to move through.
Strong & Fluid: A strong sequence for when you are up for a challenge with less instruction and more flow. A fluid exploration of arm balances, side planks, handstands, backbends and some yummy side bode releases to close. You might want to do a little more of a warm up before you start to play with this one. Just over 30 minutes :) Have fun!
Wake up and flow: A varied full body flow that gets everything moving and ready for the day ahead. Move from the ground into standing warrior sequences, twists, side body openers and a lovely rest at the end. A delicious, simple and steady practice to get you embodied and clear for the day ahead. 37 Minutes.
Hand balance flow: A short, strong, varied practice with less instruction and more flow. Explore weight shift in side to side plank variations, play with crow pose, handstands and some stretchy standing flows before closing with some hip strengtheners and releases. Check out the suggested follow on practices to build this into a longer, fuller practice.
Floor based flow: A supportive and somatic floor based practice to wiggle and roll on the ground moving though spinal rotations, shoulder release, playing with weight shift, free form flow and fully unholding into the support of the ground. Nurturing, gentle and powerful. Just over 35 minutes running time.
Sweaty Mood Booster: This practice is designed to get you feeling strong, get your circulation going, your heart beating, and invigorate and boost your mood with the magic of dynamic motion. For days when you need to shake things up and get a little sweaty and out of breath! Dynamic strength work, handstand hops, some stretchy goodness and rest interwoven for a feel good booster in a short amount of time. Take what you need, leave what you don’t, and have fun.
