Day 3 - 2-Week Vibration & Creation New Years Challenge

Welcome to Day 3 of our 2-Week Vibration & Creation New Year's Challenge!

Today’s classes invite you to explore clarity and self-expression: "Chakra Flow Series 5: Visuddha Chakra" with Dana: A 20-minute all-levels class focused on opening your throat chakra to enhance communication and self-expression, or "Yoga for Clarity" with Claire: A 40-minute intermediate flow designed to clear the mind and cultivate focus.

Choose the class that resonates most with your level and energy today, and let your practice guide you toward calmness and clarity. Remember, every time you show up, you’re creating powerful change. Keep going—you’re doing amazing! 🌟

Here are today's class options:



Chakra Flow Series 5: Visuddha Chakra with Dana Damara

20 min class

Level:  All Levels | Intensity: Everyday Namaste

The fifth chakra, the throat chakra, sometimes referred to as the bottleneck of the chakra system, is all about sound, vibration, rhythm, music, voice, words and communication. Its name, Vishuddha, actually means purification -- making space in the energy body for higher consciousness. It is essential to go deeper into our core in order to integrate and balance our single vibrating truth. This chakra is all about opening and using our voice appropriately. It's about speaking our truth and freeing our personal creativity. The essence of this chakra is to find resonance and harmony with all that is vibrating around you. We are meant to be open to speaking and listening, singing and dancing.....from here we find our creativity and are able to express our deepest self.
 



Yoga for Clarity with Claire Petretti Marti

45 min class

Level: Intermediate | Intensity: You'll Feel It

Sometimes you feel overwhelmed with too many options and decisions to make—in this class we'll work to eliminate the mental and emotional clutter and tune in to what you are really feeling or thinking. We'll focus on the Third Eye or Ajna Chakra—our seat of intuition to bring us into a sense of clarity and wholeness. Nadi Shodhana Pranayama, long holds in Dolphin and forearm plank and lots of balancing will assist you in getting clear.
 


*you only need to choose one class

**If you're feeling in the mood for something different you can choose any of our free classes on our site (or any other class you'd like!). The most important thing is to show up and get on your mat!

Absolutely LOVE Dana! Please bring her back and offer more classes with her.

I chose Dana's class. It was short, but included a little bit of everything. I liked all the Lion's breaths.

Avatar  Simona_Yoga 13 hours ago

Pretty intense, I loved it!

Avatar  carolyn 13 hours ago

The Chakra class was so powerful for being so short. Will definitely check out more of Dana's classes.

Avatar  Anita Moose 14 hours ago

I loved the chakra class with Dana damara. I felt so energized afterwards.

Avatar  Anita Moose 14 hours ago

I loved the day 3 chakra class with Dana Damara. I felt so energized afterward.

Avatar  Gabriela 15 hours ago

Really enjoyed Claire's class. Standing/balance poses are both a favorite and a huge challenge of mine. Which makes me want to do them even more. Great way to end the week.

Avatar  HeatherHalfMoon 21 hours ago

I spent far too much time in a car today and I'm in some pain. So I'm doing one of my favorites for a solid stretch -- "Rid Yourself of Back Pain: An Essential Sequence" with Alanna Kaivalya. I'm glad for the challenge because otherwise I'd just take some Tylenol and go to bed. I know the sequence will help me. Thanks, YDL!

Avatar  Elizabeth 22 hours ago

Dana's class was short & sweet, but boy do you feel it when your done! Nice to open the throat chakra with lion's breath throughout the practice.
Can't wait to see what Day 4 brings!

Avatar  Marina Stanger 22 hours ago

I tried Claire’s class today. It was challenging but in a manageable, encouraging way. I felt like I was able to participate without feeling like it was too much or I needed a break. I’m not sure how much clarity I gained, but I do feel accomplished and confident! I also feel very nicely stretched out.
Awesome day 3!

Avatar  Susan 22 hours ago

Took Dana’s class & agree there was a lot in that 20 minutes! Restarting my Yoga practice so it was a little much for me but I will keep on because I know how I feel after a class. Awake & Energized!

Avatar  Jen 23 hours ago

I ran out of time today so did Dana's class. I love her chakra series and they're great when I don't have a lot of time. I'll come back to the Clarity class.... I could use it.

Avatar  nikki 23 hours ago

I ended my day with a much needed chakra flow 💜 looking forward to what tomorrow brings!

Avatar  Oralee 23 hours ago

Dana sure did fit a lot in the 20 minute chakra class! I like the lunge to standing splits transition, real smooth.

Avatar  Desyree 1 days ago

I chose Dana's class today so I could try a different teacher. Even though it was not my favorite class (it felt a bit rushed) I still enjoyed the movements and the transitions. Good class for when we are short on time!

Avatar  pammy 1 days ago

After smudging the house and a therapy sesh, an opportunity to open the throat chakra “spoke” to me. Loved this one!
Extended my bridge pose with a block for yummy release and Supta Baddha Konasana to complete my practice. 💙

Avatar  Tory 1 days ago

I did Dana’s class today, a new one for me. Active and opening, just what I needed! Thank you!

Avatar  Brandie 1 days ago

Oh boy did Chakra Flow series 5 with Dana have me working my legs.

Avatar  Linda 1 days ago

I truthfully chose Dana's chakra class because it was short, I just didn't have the energy for a 40 minute practice. I wasn't expecting much and I was pleasantly suprised! What a nice flow with just the right amount of energy for this evening. I will be marking this one as a favorite and going back to it!

Avatar  Nathalie 1 days ago

Good evening from Colombia 🌺🙏🏽🏵️! I have just completed the Visuddah Chakra Flow with Dana as I needed a shorter yoga session after doing the two Vinyasa flows in the first two days of the challenge. Dana's class was amazing and I have immediately added it amongst my Favorites. Will definitely come back to it, maybe already during the rest of the challenge! Shoulders and back feeling so less tense. Thank you and namaste 🧡💐🌺🏵️!

Avatar  Steph 1 days ago

Chakra Flow was a great way and enjoyed the sequence. great balance between strengthening and stretching.

Avatar  Molly Hicks 1 days ago

I chose Dana’s class today just based on the description! I’m an actress and musician and I’ve been feeling removed from my authentic self lately, so I used this session to tap into my creative self. It was so nice!

Avatar  TJ 1 days ago

Tonight I chose "Chakra Flow Series 5: Visuddha Chakra" with Dana. I wasn’t anticipating the faster pace. Not typically how I like to wind down at night, but I was really interested in paying attention to this specific chakra so I mostly hung with it. I did modify in some places to give my body what it needed. I may revisit this class in the future, but in my more energetic time of the day. 😉
Thank you!

Avatar  Erin 1 days ago

To be honest, I had a horrible day and really couldn’t make myself do one of the class options today. I did manage to take Shannon’s 5 min Showing Up class though. Tomorrow is a new day.

Avatar  Kathy 1 days ago

I chose Claire's class for clarity tonight and really enjoyed it! She is a great instructor and I have done a lot of her classes, but haven't done this one before. It was a great flow and a good challenge at different times.

Avatar  Heather R 1 days ago

I did happy hips and hamstrings (Mary Barker). I overdid the gym yesterday and it’s snowing here. I started the chakra one, didn’t like the speed and made a different selection.

Avatar  Rachel 1 days ago

Dana's class today! I've done this one before and it doesn't disappoint.

Avatar  Trice 1 days ago

I did Dana’s class today and it was very energizing and easy to follow. She was a first for me and look forward to doing more classes from her.

Avatar  Andrea 1 days ago

I tried Dana's class today and honestly wasn't sure quite what to expect. But I really enjoyed it and got so much benefit for a class that only takes 20 minutes! This will be a favorite when I'm busy and don't have time for a longer class.

Avatar  ljsmom 1 days ago

I've taken the class by Clare and loved it so tried Dana's class after work. It packed a lot into a short class. Good for later in the day when you are moved, would not want to do it first thing in the morning.

Avatar  Robin 1 days ago

Day 3 down! I did the Chakra Flow. It was a bit fast for this old, out-of-shape body of mine, but still good. Knowing it was only 20 min made it easier for me to just start it, not procrastinate. Hoping I'll keep going all 14 days and feel better by the end.

Avatar  Baynicole 1 days ago

Claire's Yoga for Clarity was my choice for Day 3. Fabulous class! She is an amazing instructor and this class certainly did not disappoint. Thank you!

Avatar  LSF 1 days ago

Enjoyed a chance to focus on clarity, mind and body feel great

Avatar  Rocío 1 days ago

Yoga for clarity was my option and I am more than satisfied. I love balances and it was demanding enough. I will repeat the class in the future.

Avatar  Pat 1 days ago

Today I went back to Shannon's Mindful Motion for Healing from yesterday which was just what I needed. I enjoyed the class.

Avatar  Jovi K 1 days ago

Today, I did the Chakra Flow Series 5: Visuddha Chakra. Dana is an excellent instructor. The class was really engaging and energizing, and it did wonders for my throat chakra!

Avatar  Nikki 1 days ago

I was feeling very tired today so opted for Dana's class. That was a great 20 minutes and feeling energizes

Avatar  beer 1 days ago

Day 3 chakra flow this was a great practice. Thank you

Avatar  Sarah 1 days ago

Had a great class with Jackie this morning. Feeling rejuvenated and ready for a good day ahead.

Avatar  Jamillah 1 days ago

Yoga for Clarity provided sufficient challenge for me as my shoulders and arms are still feeling the effects of previous classes. Thank you!

Avatar  Sabrina 1 days ago

I completed Dana’s Chakra Flow this morning and it was just what I needed. I started 2025 with a cold so of all the focus on breath, especially the Lion’s breath felt really good! Thank you for a wonderful start to my day! Namaste 🙌🏾

Avatar  Andrea Ward 1 days ago

I completed Claire’s class today. It was a great way to start the day! Thank for a challenging class!!

Avatar  Laura 1 days ago

The Chakra flow was a great 20 minute class! I enjoyed it this morning.

Avatar  Debbie 1 days ago

Thanks Dana. Wonderful flow. I feel great.

Avatar  Andie 1 days ago

Claire’s class was a delightful mix of poses and stretching giving my body a good rinse!
This year I’m going to remind myself not every day needs to be high intensity cardio. It’s OK to enjoy a day off, which includes yoga. The body will definitely respond.

Avatar  Jennifer 1 days ago

Claire's "Yoga for Clarity" was an awesome challenge today! I definitely am feeling it! My shoulders, legs, and core all had a great workout! Great class!

Avatar  Mindy 1 days ago

I did Claire’s “yoga for clarity” class. Such a great challenge. My shoulders were on fire with the transition from down dog to plank to dolphin! I had to rest in child’s post a couple times. 😅

Avatar  Mimi 1 days ago

I yoga-ed with Claire this morning. As billed, this class is definitely intermediate! I had to modify some and took child's pose for some, but I love everything Claire offers. It's definitely going in my favorite list to try again. Also want to try Dana's class. Om shanti

Avatar  katiemayo 1 days ago

great session today. I like the shorter classes because it's easier to fit in!

Avatar  linda 1 days ago

Day 3 of the 14 day challenge. Chakra Flow Sereries 5: Visuddha Chakra, what a great way to start your day. This is a 20 minute class. So if you don't have a lot of time in the morning this is quick and yet it gives you the energy you need to start your day.

Avatar  EmmaS 1 days ago

3rd day of consecutive yoga and it already feels better in my body. I used to practice everyday for years, and then I hurt myself. Doing yoga. And since then I have not been getting back. I still practice, now and then. But not like before. I am curious how getting back to a daily practice will feel. Today I did Dana's Chakra class after a tough circuit training session. It was OK. Not my type of class. I am more of a Claire-person, but I always like to try new teachers and classes during these challenges.

Avatar  SandyC 1 days ago

Clarie's classes never disappoint. Now retired it is great to get back in a yoga routine. Today's Yoga for Clarity practice on my mat included flow, breath, and poses that really ignited areas with stretch and hold. Definitely added to my favorites to do again. Make today a great day! Namaste.

Avatar  Susan 1 days ago

It was challenging but enjoyable class. It tested my balance and was able to get it done with a bit of unsteadiness. I will try this class at a later time. Thank you!

Avatar  Amy 1 days ago

I added Dana's Chakra Flow to my favorites, proceeded to do the wrong video. 😂 So, shoutout to Marie's Chakra Balancing Yoga class because it hit the spot.

Avatar  Katie 1 days ago

Yoga for Clarity was well-paced sequence of poses and excellent queuing from Claire.

Avatar  Sue Ann 1 days ago

Dana! So helpful and challenging to focus on my throat chakra! Thanks!

Avatar  Genie 1 days ago

I just finished Dana's class, and it built up a small sweat! Definitely not for beginners or for those that have less flexibility or joint issues. I still liked the class, but I would revisit it once I get back in the groove of practicing yoga again.

Avatar  zenflow731 1 days ago

Claire's class was great, will definitely return back to this one :) Really nice flow, great cueing, and a nice balance of challenge and rest!

Avatar  Kathryn 1 days ago

Day 3 and I'm on a roll! Dana's class had such a nice, continuous flow. It was gentle, yet challenging. Felt great!

Avatar  EE 1 days ago

Claire's classes are always so good! Great way to start the day.

Avatar  rcowin 1 days ago

Good class, love the clarity theme for starting a new year. Claire also calls for some interesting transitions that require a lot of balance on one leg. Good reminder to slow down our minds and breathe through the transitions - it goes more smoothly and doesn't have to be perfect. Fall out and start over.

Avatar  Ashley 1 days ago

Now to do Chakra flow

Avatar  Macsek 1 days ago

Nice little practice today, it really made me move. Hope the throat chackra helas my throat finallly 🤍

Avatar  Vicky 1 days ago

Just woke up and did "Busy Day Flow". Perfect flow with chattaranga, warriors and dancer pose. I feel energized to begin my LONG day :) Happy Friday!
