BACKBENDS - 60 min

FUNDAMENTALS OF FLYING COBRA

This class is where you can expect to make the most long-lasting progress to your back flexibility. Using a carefully crafted sequence, we will make our way through a routine designed to enhance your front chain flexibility (think hip flexors, quads and abs). Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days. Props: 2 yoga blocks, foam roller, yoga strap and optional pilates ball.

GENTLE BACKBENDS

This class is geared toward students of all levels. Gentle Backbends utilizes an off-loading technique to help you refine your approach and make subtle, yet profound progress. Expect to practice a mix of front chain ( think quads, hip flexors, abs, chest) stretches to create more space and back chain ( think hamstrings, glutes, spinal erectors) exercises to reinforce all that new mobility. Class is recorded and available for playback. Props: 2 blocks, roller, chair and a wall.

BACKBENDS AND INVERSIONS

This class is geared toward students who are comfortable training deep backbends like wheel pose (aka full bridge), forearm stand ( with or without help from a wall), and handstand ( again with or without the wall). This class will focus on strategies to deepen back flexibility and improve coordination and alignment for these inverted backbends. Props: 2 blocks, foam roller, medium theraband and a wall. Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days.

NEEDLE SCALE SESSION

This class will dive deep into the spine and hip mobility needed for this elusive trick. Students should be of an intermediate flexibility level with minimum 180 degree front splits on each leg. Modifications will be given to help you progress safely and effectively, while also educating you on the bio mechanics of your backbend. Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days. Props: 2 yoga blocks, strap, foam roller and a wall.


LEGS - 60min

MIDDLE SPLITS FOR BEGINNERS

This flexibility session is dedicated to those who struggle with Middle Splits. Accomplishing a well- balanced Middle Split is about progressing through a routine designed to blend strength and flexibility. Expect to practice stretches that target your hip adductors (or inner thighs) as well as exercises that recruit your hip abductors (or outer hips). Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days. Props: 2 blocks, foam roller, yoga strap and a wall.

FRONT SPLITS FOR BEGINNERS

This class is geared toward students who are working toward full front splits. We will work on stretches that isolate the component muscle groups, with plenty of modifications for those who identify as "tight". Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days. Props: 2 blocks, foam roller, a wall and a chair.

SPLITS NOT SITS

This class is dedicated to active flexibility for splits and is geared toward the intermediate/advanced student who is ready to level up their approach to this bendy staple. Expect to practice drills that challenge your mobility, alignment and endurance. Class is recorded and available for playback for 7 days. Props: 2 blocks, foam roller, yoga strap and a wall.


CONDITIONING - 60min

ACROBATIC CORE CONDITIONING

Whether you're an aerialist, yogi, pole dancer, hand-balancer or dancer, your core plays a major role in how well your body handles the movements you're performing. In order to make things feel ( and look) easy and graceful, you must train your core for stability and endurance. Expect to work both in this class. Expect to sweat. Expect to get to know your body on a new level. Class is recorded and available for playback. Props: 2 yoga blocks, foam roller, medium-high resistance theraband and a chair.

FISHBOWL PRIVATES - 60min

Fishbowl privates are a new class format! I am opening up my coaching process to you, my fellow coaches and students. In a Fishbowl Private, you can book a spot to look in on my one on one sessions. You have the freedom to practice along if you wish, or take notes and use the content to help design your personal program. At the end of the session, the "fish" and the students who observed will have an opportunity for Q&A with me. Sessions are recorded on Zoom and available for playback for 7 days.


ONLINE PRIVATE CLASSES

Privates are a great way to make progress on your personal goals. Privates allow us to get specific on the things that your practice is calling forward. I like to combine conditioning with drills to help you achieve the next step forward in your practice. Training with me is challenging yet attainable. I’m really keen on meeting students where they are and modifying each exercise based on my assessment of their movement. 60 min
