Module 3: Pelvis 360
Today we are focusing on the entire circumfrance of the pelvis! This includes (but not limited to) the psoas, transverse abdominus, sides of the hips (glute med & min), the piriformis and glute max as well as the adductors, pelvic floor and low back.
To get the most of our practice, you'll nee...

Module 2: GPS (glutes, psoas & sitz bones)
We will be exploring the fascia of the glutes, top of the hamstrings where they attach at the sitz bone and also the psoas and lower abdominal area. All things that will help with low back pain, tight pelvic floor, potentially knee pain, discomfort around the tailbone, sciatica and restricted hi...

Module 1: Obturator Internus & Adductors
Adductors are your inner thighs yogi and they are connected to the second layer of your pelvic floor. As someone who has been dealing with pelvic pain for over 20+ years, I can tell you first hand that the inner thighs play a big role when it comes to hypertension in the pelvic floor. While str...

From Root To Rise
No matter what you do in life, starting with a solid foundation is critical to the stability of the structure or task at hand. In this class, we bring our focus to the opposing nature of rooting down and through that, being able to expand, grow and bloom in the opposite direction. We do a lot o...

Office Chair Yoga Flow
If you are looking for a quick little 19 minute practice that is gonna raise the heat a bit and get things moving and groovin' then look no further. This might be short, but it's going to offer you plenty of opportunity for engagement, turning inward and deepening the breath connection. We don'...
-
Gentle Pelvic Health Stability
I created this class because I wanted students to be able to have a go-to when they wanted to create stability but in a mindful, gentle and balanced manner. This class is perfect for new students, a student who's experiencing a flare of some kind, when symptoms are present but the opening work ha...
-
Mobility for the Upper Back and Neck
In today's class we are focusing our attention and breath into the upper back and neck. We explore the protraction and retraction of the scapulas in order to mobilize the space between the shoulder blades and ecourage circulation. We spend time opening up the side body and address the front bod...
-
Feelin' Strong & Open
This is a full body class that was designed to bring both strength and flexibility to the body. We explore some gentle twisting, psoas stretching, deep core activating and glute engaging movements that will keep you immersed and turn your focus inward. All you need for class today is a bolster a...
-
Peacefully Strong Flow
Today's class is a balance between finding length in the muscles of the body and on the flip side, creating strength. We don't move fast through this class so there's lots of opportunity to check in but we will keep a steady pace. The flow has some fun transitions in it and instead of getting fr...
-
Grounded in the Hips
Overall, this is a more opening type of class but there will be some opportunity to engage and create a bit of heat at whatever level you'd like to take it to! We will do poses like legs up the strap (supta-padagusthasana), internal rotation with the block, strapped bridge, a myofascial release f...
-
Quick Little Hip Release
When you've only got 15 minutes and you want to get some solid pelvic work in, this will be a fabulous class to turn to! We hit up so much in 15 minute. (yes I said 10 in the video but I don't think I'm capable of 10 minute classes lol!) We make space for the glutes, hip flexors, inner thighs an...
-
Pelvis Awakening
Yogis, this is an all around amazing class for creating strength and stability in the pelvis including the glutes, pelvic floor, deep core and hamstrings. 20 Minutes on the mat will leave you feeling so strong in your body but not without sacrificing the mental and emotional peace that comes wit...
-
Blissful Bolster Opening
If you are dealing with a tired and sore body, tension or stress, this one's for you! Our entire goal here is to open the body, ground the nervous system and feel ourselves into the present moment. We are using a bolster in this one to offer much needed support and we will work on many areas of...
-
15 Minute Ignite
Time to start that internal fire yogis! Join me for a flow that will raise the heat and get your heart rate going but not leave you feeling burned out after. I love how this flow offers an opportunity to feel strong but in a slow and mindful way where you get to pay attention to the details. Y...
-
Knee Pain Relief
If you are experiencing knee pain, be it an acute flare or something that's been ongoing, this is a great class to place on repeat! All the postures today are supporting the muscles that the knee depends on for stability. The outer hips, inner thighs, pelvic floor and calves all being part of t...
-
Damage Control for Low Back & SI Joint (Bonus Class)
The reason I'm including this class in Restore Your Pelvic Floor is because all the nerves that innervate down into the pelvis, legs and feet START in the low back. So if you hold tension there then that can create issues down the chain.
This class is appropriate for chronic low back pain, acu...
-
Strapped Resistance
Who says working your deep core has to be a sweaty mess of plank poses and sit ups?! Today we got strappy with it and used this incredible tool to get deeper connected to our pelvic floor, hip flexors, core and upper body. All we used in class was a strap but you could have a couple blocks handy...
-
Glute Release (Piriformis, Sciatica, Tight Hips)
This class focuses on opening up the muscles of the glutes. I'm sure you've heard of piriformis syndrome where the piriformis muscle (as well as others around it) are tight and start to put pressure on the sciatic nerve. It can be very painful! The nerve itself actually starts in the low back ...
-
20 Min Restorative Reset
We are going to stay low and slow with this one. Between initial vagal tone techniques and quietly finding stillness in some full body opening poses, you should walk away from this class a little more settled and a little more grounded in peace.
You will need a blanket and a bolster. (If you...
-
10 Minute Knees
The knees are tricky. There are many reasons that they could be cranky and one of them is that the surrounding muscles aren't supporting them. In todays class, we will bring stability to the quads (helps to stabalize the knee cap), the glute med and min (myofascially connects to the IT band whic...
-
Loop Release, A Class For Grounding
All you will need for this class is a yoga strap! We will use it to spend some time unwinding and letting go of the day in some gentle and supported posture holds. This class isn't about deep stretching, it's about feeling a gentle and supported stretch and staying there long enough to send the...
-
Bound Bicep Flow (Scapula Focused)
Hint hint - this class isn't actually about biceps! But we do a bicep bind in a few different postures and I know it'll help you remember the class if/when you come back to it. Today we are focusing on the upper back with the protraction and retraction of the scapulas which also involved the sho...

Hello Inner Thighs. Meet Pelvic Floor!
Considered the Super Highway to the Pelvic Floor, the inner thighs play an important role in our pelvic health. They are directly connected to our second layer of the pelvic floor, where our urogenital diaphragm resides and within that, the urethral sphincter. When there's restriction, it has t...
