Kicking off a month dedicated to strength with a whole body slow flow strength practice, cultivating our sense of inner strength just as much as our outer strength. Take moments to pause as often as you need, and as always listen to your body.
Journey to splits. Day 2.
Today we focus on strength, you’ll be firing up through the whole lower body, working into the glutes, hamstrings and quads. At any time that this session gets too much, come back to your intention and back to that self-awareness. Take moments to pause as often as you need and challenge your strength when you see fit.
Journey to splits introduction x
Welcome to your journey to splits. Throughout this 14-day journey we’ll visit different types of movements and ways of stretching. This is by no means a “quick fix” to splits, but instead it’s an in-depth start to your progress towards splits. If you would like to, take progress photos, but also journal your thoughts and feelings throughout. Remember, the success comes from being aware, from showing up and from being present. Anything else is just a bonus.
Consciously connected vinyasa flow
A beautiful practice for you to fully and consciously connect to your breath and body. We will work with breath, meditation, sun salutations, repetition, strength and confidence, as we move from a space of love for the self. Stay connected to the breath throughout x
7 Day Mindful Movement. Day 3. Lower body
Today, we will iron out the kinks in our lower body. Hips, hamstrings, quads… Let’s do it!
Elements series: Air
“My heart is full of gratitude. I count my blessings every day. I give thanks to all expressions of love and light.” Opening into the heart space, the upper back and chest.. Creating space to receive Air!
Yoga for the posterior chain (back body)
In this practice, we’ll stretch and strength all the way down the posterior chain focusing on our stabilising muscles and lengthening out the whole back body. This is great flow to come back to on a regular basis, especially if you’re quad dominant and do a lot of lower body workouts.
A spicy power flow
Short & spicy. Igniting our sense of power with a fiery dynamic practice. Enjoy and take pauses when you need to.
Heart opening flow (lovely for posture)
A beautiful heart opening sequence. As with any heart opening and back bending flow, just be aware of any niggles in the lower back and know when you’ve reached your limit. Breathe into the heart, feeling yourself lift higher.
Active hips flow
To connect with our masculine energy we’ll be moving through an active hips flow. There will be a few passive moments throughout, but feel free to take some extra pause moments if you need them. This practice will leave your hips feeling strong, open, mobile and alive!
