20 MINUTE SEATED SWEET SPOT
This is a 20-minute yoga class with a variety of seated poses. In each pose you’ll find your sweet spot. The sweet spot is that space where there isn’t much effort, but there is sensation. In those moments you get to breathe deep and simply feel the sweet spot. This is a great class for days when energy is low, but you just want a little movement, a little stretch, a little breathing and a little meditation.
25-MINUTE CHANGE IT UP FOR HIPS
Join Wendy for this 25 minutes yoga class focusing on different ways to move and strengthen your hips. The goal of this class is to create hip mobility. Mobility is the combination of strength and flexibility, so we’ll move the legs in all sorts of directions to strengthen and stretch in less traditional yoga poses. Great to release tension in the hips from sitting or standing for long periods of time.
30 MINUTE BAR YOGA
A yogi walks into a bar…. All kidding aside, this class uses a bar, a railing, a chair, anything you have available. By using this prop, we engage different muscles and help to build strength around our joints. You’ll pull, you’ll push, you’ll get an incredible stretch for your shoulders, hips, hamstrings & spine. Enjoy this 30 minute bar yoga class.
