EASY BACKCARE YOGA

I think this might be one of my favourite classes - Kathy says it was like a yoga retreat (at home!) Try it - your back will love you for it. Excellent when you have achy lower back or just need to take it easy.

Saturday Flow - On Tour

Sweet Saturday flow on tour up at Pakiri at one of my favourite place’s to be that’s not home.

SLOW FLOW

Because sometimes you need to go slow…..

SWEET SATURDAY FLOW

Get your weekend on!

STRENGTH AND SURRENDER

Take it at your own pace, ease into it. Surrender to your inner strength.

CORE FLOW

Core Flow is about tuning into the deep core muscles that are our powerhouses. It is about building strength, but also resilience and letting go of excess tension. And building a sense of connectedness to your inner awareness.

STRENGTH and SURRENDER

Time to get strong, time to let go, seems like the opposites - but you cant be strong without knowing where and when to let go. It is strong to know when to be easeful and when to exert yourself - its a delicate balance. Here we learn both.

Lions Gate Yoga - manifesting miracles day

ASHTANGA BEGINNERS - WITH XINIA ALDERSON

This class is class four in the beginners Ashtanga series but don’t let the word beginners fool you- this is a serious workout not for the faint-hearted - please start at class one first if you havn’t done Astanga before - the videos are below and work your way through the series. In this class we flow through the complete standing series focusing on the breath and open up options for full variations of postures. Continuing to add little by little to the seating postures and adding to the inversions at the end of practice. This class is a big jump from class 3, feel free to practice until you feel comfortable with the flow and positions, and please do child’s pose instead of the jump backs for a while until you build up to doing them (if that feels right to you) otherwise tally ho - enjoy! This can become a daily routine. (PS we advise you rest a wee bit longer then she does in the video!)

SHIN YOGA WITH WILLA

Shin Yoga is a deep relaxing practice that helps to wind down the nervous system and develop a sensitivity to our inner landscape and somatic wellbeing. We use natural movement pathways such as spirals, and undulations to help the fascia and muscles release and the whole system to come back to a balanced whole.

Half a yoga class with Willa - Saturday 2nd May

Here we go - with a new microphone - so you can actually hear me and a bit more lighting - we are getting a little bit more savvy with our online experience - we would love to have feedback - ALAS - my recording device ran out of space half way through the class - so you will have to talk to yourself for the rest of the class - or join me for another one. Perfection is the death of creativity they say - so here I am practicing imperfection.

ASHTANGA BEGINNERS CLASS THREE

Let's keep building and continuing to shape the practice. We will complete the standing series and start to unfold louts pose, which appears in balancing and seated postures. Shoulder stand is introduced and options continue all the way through practice to keep you safe and steady on your mat.

ASHTANGA BEGINNERS CLASS TWO

This is class two in our beginners Ashtanga series - please do class one a few times first, you will find it below.

We re-visit and start to build on the practice. Moving slowly adding bit-by-bit and keeping the focus on the breath, we start to break down the variations for vinyasas and add on to the seated poses. 

If this class is a challenge practice daily for at least a week before moving to class 3.

HATHA FLOW WITH WILLA

This is a full 1 hour and half Hatha Flow class - recorded from Zoom on live stream on 18th April 2020. Mostly floor work here, not a standing pose in sight - beginning with some core work on the floor we dive into some delishous forward folds and spirals and end with a long and lushous nidra relaxation.

Start the journey of Ashtanga Yoga with Xinia Alderson
