We hit it all in this class, with extra love and attention to abs and glutes.
Yes, you read that right. By request, this class is all about twists. Those twists are part of a vinyasa flow that starts out slow and picks up speed. As always, when we're working o twists, I will often work both strength and flexibility of the interior and exterior obliques. [...]
Can you do the Ashtanga Primary Series in 60 minutes? Um... no, you can not. Not unless you speed it up by counting fast through the holds and skipping quite a few poses. Voila, that's what we have here. However, that doesn't mean that isn't 60 minutes well spent. Ashtanga is a beautiful, challenging, [...]
A little extra leg stretching in this vinyasa class for my endurance athletes that join me live. And of course, we get a little extra core work in there too. Other than that, this is a pretty well-rounded, not-too-complicated vinyasa class. No tricky transitions, but pretty strength driven.

For the first half of class, we slow it down. We work different kinds of planks, we stretch, we breathe. Then we ramp it up with a ladder flow. A lot. By the end of this class, I was in a full sweat!
Although we sneak in a few arm balances at the end of this practice, this is primarily a lower body focused Ladder Flow Vinyasa class with extra hamstring stretches and core work, by request.
