yoga for everyone
Vinyasa Flow & Sun Salutations
Every session is built around a vinyasa flow, a dynamic practice that synchronizes breath with movement. This style strengthens the body, increases flexibility, and promotes mindfulness. We also incorporate Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar), which consist of a series of flowing poses that align breath with movement, providing a gentle warm-up and enhancing circulation and coordination.
Mantras
We often begin or end our sessions with the sound of OM, the sacred sound of the universe, to harmonize our energy and deepen our practice. Sometimes, I also introduce other mantras, such as the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad’s chant for peace, to inspire freedom and tranquility.
Balancing the Chakras
Yoga also helps balance our seven chakras—energy centers in the body. By practicing specific postures and breathing exercises, we can invite fresh energy into our system, releasing any blockages. We explore each chakra, working together to visualize, move, and chant corresponding mantras.
Focus on Breathing
Breath is the foundation of every yoga practice. In our sessions, we emphasize breathing techniques to calm the mind, restore respiratory health, and energize the body. We practice pranayamas like Ujjayi, Kapalabhati, and more to help you breathe deeply and mindfully.
Yoga Therapy for Your Back
In our yoga therapy sessions, we focus on the back, addressing tension and blockages in the spine, hips, and hamstrings. Through targeted exercises, we work to improve flexibility, relieve pain, and strengthen muscles.
Special Focus: The Pelvis
In special sessions, we dive into the essential yet often overlooked role of the pelvis in yoga. The pelvis is key to grounding and stability, and we explore its connection to the Root and Sacral chakras, helping you find balance, alignment, and strength.
Yoga Nidra
Experience deep relaxation through Yoga Nidra, where we lie in stillness and practice mindfulness. This method helps the body and mind recharge, bringing peace, confidence, and serenity through guided visualizations and positive affirmations.
Silent Yoga & Laughter Yoga
For a unique experience, we also offer Silent Yoga, where you use headsets for an immersive practice, and Laughter Yoga, where movement, clapping, and joyful laughter reduce stress and lighten the spirit.
Embodied Movement
We also incorporate somatic exercises to release tension and activate the vagus nerve, calming the nervous system and promoting self-awareness. This practice honors the body as a whole—mind, body, and spirit—creating space for true healing.
Embodied Movement
In this session, we explored the stomach as the center of energy, emotion, and strength. When balanced, it fosters a sense of accomplishment and harmony.
We began with abdominal breathing exercises to engage deep muscles and build core awareness, followed by gentle asanas promoting core stability and deeper connection with breath and body. Many participants experienced a release of physical and emotional tension as the session progressed.
