Level 1-2 - 02.16.22

54 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Block + Wall Space

In this class, we explore some of our basic moves in a new orientation - on our backs and with our feet up against the wall. This slight shift in position changes our relationship to gravity, which changes the muscles that have to work against gravity, offering a novel challenge for our tissues. We start with some thorough toe and ankle mobility before exploring knee rotation in a couple of different positions. Finally, we make our way up to the hips where we get into all the various movements of the hip joints.

1 HR 1 MIN

PROPS NEEDED : 1 Yoga Belt + 1 Block + Blanket or Pillow (optional)

DESCRIPTION: Have you ever sprained or rolled an ankle? This class starts off with a strong emphasis on the feet and ankles. After some passive stretching, we get into specific training in ankle rotation (eversion and inversion) to bulletproof our ankles and help to mitigate ankle sprains.

Level 2 - 10.21.21

58 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Small towel + 1 Chair

A thorough warm up for the toes and ankles leads to more thorough strength training for all four sides of the ankles. Using the chair, we get deep into hip flexors and hamstrings. All of this is in preparation for a flow that challenges you to work toward getting up and down from the floor (or chair) using (mostly) one leg.

Level 2 - 05.03.23

20 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 small massage ball

Mobility and massage anyone? Get a quad, calf, hamstring, and foot massage all while building strength and stretching. Who could ask for anything more? This class will leave you feeling long and free in commonly shortened and tight places. We especially target and lengthen the anterior tissues of the legs (hip flexors and quads) without neglecting the toes, ankles and calves. A good one for everyday active recovery.

Cautions: Ankle, Knee loading

Level 2 - 05.24.23

23 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 squishy ball

Description: Active hamstring and calf mobility (stretching and strengthening) to the rescue! This class has a strong focus on the posterior leg tissues leaving the backline feeling both strong and long. We also target the inner and outer thigh tissues to balance it all out. Don't worry we don't leave hip rotations out of the practice, I mean, how could we?!

Cautions: ankle and minimal wrist and shoulder loading

Level 2-3 - 11.27.20

59 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Chair (without armrest) and an optional pillow or blanket

Get your legs lit! Don’t let the chair fool you into believing that this one is going to be a breeze. You will werk your toes, ankles, knees, and hips to the max in this practice. After working the deepest tissues at the hip joint with end-range rotations, we target tissues responsible to move us into our active, end-range hip flexion and ankle dorsiflexion.

Level 2-3 - 05.05.21

1 HR 2 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Block + Wall Space

Use the wall to gather feedback on your foot and ankle habits and work on evening things out without your body's full weight coming down on them. Get into some good inner and outer thigh work, some challenging hamstring and quad training, and deep calf stretching that will be put to good use later.

Level 2-3 - 04.14.21

58 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Chair (without armrests) + 1 Block + Optional Pillow

Feel the heat! This class works to actively target every lower body tissue and you’ll likely be feeling it the next day. After lower body warm-ups, we use the chair to challenge active hip flexion combined with rotation to put your hip flexors and quads to work. We expand our capacity for external rotation with positional isometrics made to target the lateral hip tissues.

Level 2-3 - 05.11.22

59 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: 1 Block (Optional blanket)

Holy hip release. Rotational movement patterns get us into the deepest hip tissues to start. We then challenge the thigh tissues in a variety of directions using stretching and strengthening techniques to target the tissues of the inner and outer thighs, hamstrings, and quadriceps.

40 MIN

PROPS NEEDED: resistance band

Quick and to the point. All the good work you know but with the added challenge to overcome or resist the band.

Cautions: Ankle, knee, wrist and shoulder loading
