Yoga Snack for Dads
Father's day is coming up, so this class is for all of you who have a caregiver-like role in someone's life. Maybe that's you, or you invite someone who's a Dad-like person to do the practice with you, or maybe you loan them your mat and give them a 15 minute yoga snack for themselves. TBH, anyone is welcome to enjoy this practice. We're all caregivers in some way, shape, or form, and we're at our best when we have time to refill our cup.

Criterium
When I lived in Athens, GA, one of the big events each year was the Criterium -- a bicycle race, consisting of numerous laps of a short closed circuit around the downtown. This class is one lap of your criterium, in which you can choose how many laps you have time for in your day. Practice this once as a standard 15 minute flow or maybe you do this 4 times in a row for a full hour class. See if you can find new aspects of your poses in each round of the sequence.

Your Relationship with You
In 2020 we were gifted a lot more time to ourselves. Let's use it to cultivate a healthy and positive tone to our days. This class uses this slowing down to help you check in, unwind, or notice what's going on with you.

Anchor Me
Some of you will recognise this class already. It's one of my favourite flows, so I'm adding it here for people who might have missed it. Use this class anytime you find your head spinning and the mind overwhelmed. It'll help get you back on track.

Hippy Hippy Shake
A thorough but gentle sequence to help open the hips. If you have time, this class 2x in a row would make a wonderful difference to your day, but even once will be great. Suitable for all levels.

Yin in a Cold Climate
I love this class. In my teaching notes, I've literally written that in brackets besides the title. I love that it's the smallest possible transition from pose to pose to pose on one side. Then we treat the other side, which is perfect if you're chilly and want to stay put. Grab a hot beverage and settle in for this class. It works the legs and hips.

Releasing Expectations
"How does your experience of the class change and how does the expression of the pose itself change when you let go of how you think it's supposed to be?" Use this kind, supportive sequence to practice working with just those factors within your control and let go of the attachment to how you think it's supposed to be. On a physical level, this practice will help you learn to relax more deeply in each pose, but on an emotional level the benefits are even more profound.

My 6 Favourite Chest Openers
This class is amazing if you've been sitting for a long time. Use these poses to open the chest and shoulder area and ease the upper back. It's also the perfect preparation to develop your range of motion in backbends, generally. You'll need two blocks or block-like objects for this class.

Shoulders, Hips, and Legs
A slower moving sequence that liberates tighter spots and gets you on your way. Great for those who'd like to start more gently.
