Having a strong side body, including the lats and serratus muscles, is important for pelvic health because they help stabilize the spine and pelvis, creating a foundation for the core muscles that support pelvic organs. Weak lats can lead to imbalances and poor posture, putting stress on the lowe...

Sometimes when you're feeling sluggish and tired, it means your body needs a break. Usually there are other symptoms that go along with it like sleep disturbances, appetite changes and irritability. In those cases it's definitely indicated to do some mild yoga with a focus on longer holds and g...

In today's class we utilize the first half of class creating more connection and awareness around the muscles that need to be "on" when we are in a standing yoga pose. While the work we do on the mat today is in the stability category, it's a class that is appropriate for all levels and even if ...

As we age, our glutes tend to get lazy. They forget they are supposed to engage upon extension, help when squatting or bending over to pick something up or even getting up out of a chair. So then other muscles have to start compensating including pelvic floor. I have an entire program dedicated...

Today's class brings a great balance to effort and ease as we bring stability and space to the body. We are bringing back some of the basics with moves that stabalize the pelvic floor, glutes, hips and deep core. We cover a lot but by the end, my hope is that rather than feel drained and sore, y...

Hip rotators are crucial for pelvic health because they share a direct anatomical connection with the pelvic floor muscles. Proper hip rotation, especially internal rotation, improves pelvic alignment, strengthens the core, and reduces strain on the pelvic floor, which can help prevent issues lik...

The world offers us plenty of stimulation, no doubt. It's up to us to make the concious decision to slice out time to turn inward. I love yoga for that. Today's class we do that by moving through a flow that will keep our gaze to an inward focus. Today's flow creates space in the pelvic floor...

This class is all about longer holds and creating space. If you don't have a couch you can practice on, you can always use a chair. I encourage you to take your favorites away from this class and in the evenings, add a couple to your nightly wind-down routine. These are all great at addressing...

Grab your bolster and a couple blocks and let's offer our bodies a much needed break from the noise! In todays class we get deeply connected to our breath with the goal of sinking into our muscle and fascia in a way that not only brings space to the body but calm to the nervous system. We hold e...

This class continues our efforts to slide and glide our fascia into a relaxed, lengthened and more functional state. In today's class we also add some mindful engagement for the pelvic floor, core and glutes to accompany the very rythmic motions of the fascia gliding work. You'll gain stability,...

Today we explore stillness in different poses that promote quiet reflection and groundedness. This practice was born of a desire to help students calm their nervous system during times of struggle. Anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain and even just pushing through a schedule that never seem...

Restorative practices are incredibly supportive for a racing mind, elevated nervous system and long held tension in the body. They allow the body to rest in positions that offer support and very gentle opening. I know that this type of class is hard for some yogis because we have been so deeply...

Today we have a different approach to how we release the fascia in the lower body. We have explored manipulating the tissues using props like tennis balls and blocks up to this point and today, our focus turns towards a more "slide and glide" approach where we bring circulation and rhythm to the...

The back of the legs tend to be a tight and even sore area for many people. The muscles there are required to do a lot throughout the day. Hamstrings will often fire on to compensate for weak or underworking gluteal muscles. Often you can have pain around the sitz bones and experience pain duri...
