Sun Salutations

Join me for an invigorating intermediate Vinyasa class focused on connecting to our roots through the feet and legs. We’ll cultivate awareness of these foundational elements to tap into the grounding energy of the earth. Targeting the hamstrings, hip flexors, and quads, we’ll start off slow and gradually pick up the pace, with an option to do one Sun B flow on your own. You can expect mindful cues to help you stay present and connected to your body throughout the flow. We’ll wrap up with a progression toward the splits, inviting strength and flexibility into your practice.

This class is all about moving your body so you can get out of your mind. We flow breath to movement through an energizing Sun A, dynamic Sun B and challenging Sun C, I even added a special boat series to really fire up your core.

The flow builds layer upon layer and includes balancing poses designed to challenge your mind and body.

We utilize all of the heat built through the class to move deeper into our yin poses on the ground before enjoying a much needed savasana.

Only have 10 minutes but want to get your blood flowing? This quick yoga break will have you flowing through Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations) and a dynamic series of standing postures to wake up your balance, your strength, and open up tight muscles. You'll feel more clear, calm, and prepared for the rest of your day.

Enjoy a beautiful practice that Pradeep does almost every day because it feels so good! An ideal balance of strength and stretch, you'll flow through sun salutations, warrior variations, strengthening backbends & finish up with happy baby, twists, and a nice savasana.

Surya Namaskara (Sun Salutations) are a series of poses that create inner heat, fill your body with solar energy, and are a gesture of gratitude to the sun.

There are three traditional versions of Sun Salutations: Classical Sun Salutation, Sun Salutation A, and Sun Salutation B. This class goes through each version three times each, holding each pose the first time through, and moving with the breath the second two rounds. You will get the opportunity to experience each pose and feel the effect of each version.

This class begins with a 3-minute lecture to give you an overview into why we do Sun Salutations, their benefits, and is a resource to learn and memorize each version.

Ashtanga Vinyasa is one of the classic forms of asana practice that brought yoga to America. It's still thriving today, thanks to the tireless work of its students and lineage-holders. This class will move you through the beginning of the Ashtanga sequence, which features Sun Salutations and a rigorous set of standing and balancing poses. Your legs will really feel this one.

Jack Cuneo shines a respectful, devoted light on this practice: "Ashtanga Vinyasa was my initiation into yoga. I am not exclusively devoted to the style, but I hope my love and experience with it comes through and benefits you. Because the Ashtanga Vinyasa system is deep and precise, if you enjoy my Ashtanga classes, I highly recommend that you seek out a Certified or Authorized teacher to learn this practice in a traditional way!"

If you are a beginner, this class is full of description of the foundational poses.

This class is for anyone looking for a foundational class with alignment instruction, to balance out any practice you normally have.

Do you know Surya? Do you know what Surya Namaskar, an exceedingly common “warm-up” Vinyasa sequence practiced in roughly 108 million yoga studios across the land, is actually all about? Here’s the thing: Most yoginis don’t.

Not to worry; here’s a brief, powerful, thoroughly light-soaked overview, and vigorous morning (pre-dawn, ideally) ritual practice, dedicated to the “true” meaning of Surya and his famous “sun salutation,” which might not be quite what you think it is. Just an exercise? A classic warm-up? Sort of. But oh, also so much more. Also a ritual, a prayer, an offering of devotion to life itself, like you cannot believe. Or can you? Of course you can.

This deep, challenging and efficient practice will get you right into your body and ease your mind, with a focus on smooth, steady breath. In less than half an hour, you'll be reset, centered, and vibrant. There's a touch of everything in this well-balanced practice, from a backbend, deep forward bend, twist, hip opener and side bend. It is ideal for anyone with limited time, but desiring a practice. Even 30 minutes on days with limited time, can have profound benefits to your day!

Step into presence and strength with this full body flow that combines warming posture-holds with an abundance of flowing Sun Salutations A & B, hip openers, and chaturangas. Class will culminate with a balancing series that includes Standing Splits, Fallen Star and Crow Pose (Bakasana), with an option for One legged Crow (Eka Pada Bakasana). Throughout class, Jackie invites you to do more than just "go through the motions," but to GROW through the motions and discover more about yourself through your practice. Enjoy!

Practice Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar) any time of the day with this short but powerful class. Sun Salutations help you connect with the light within and around you, and warm your entire body from the inside out. In this class, you will flow through several rounds of basic Sun Salutations, A & B, with slight variations. After your warming flow, you will wind down with a seated spinal twist (Ardha Matsyendrasana), hip opener, and a short but peaceful Savasana. This simple and pure class will help you move stuck energy and connect with your highest intentions. Enjoy!

In many yoga postures we are seeking Tadasana or mountain pose alignment. True North is a beautiful way to learn how to encompass this central alignment in our minds through setting intention, and in our bodies by contracting muscles that support the natural curvature of our spine. We learn this in our spirit by connecting to a higher place through breath. This 20 minute flow brings awareness to True North Alignment in poses such as mountain, plank, side plank, crescent lunge, chaturanga and tree. Take some time to re-align!

A short and invigorating class to offset the dark and heavy qualities of Winter. Enjoy a progressive Namaskar flow to leave you feeling light and happy from the inside out. Discover the light within to beat the winter blues!

This 35-minute Vinyasa flow is perfect for morning, lunchtime or an afternoon pick-me-up.

With a vigorous flow and moments of complete stillness, I challenge you to engage deeper with stillness, and to see stillness as the most productive thing you can do.

Many mistake the peaceful warrior as a passive, indifferent path. Quite the contrary! In this practice, we learn the story of the warrior poses and their core lesson: humility. By weaving the story through the asana practice, we embody the spirit of the warrior and learn how to fight for what we believe in with humility, integrity and grace. This is a dynamic vinyasa practice suitable for all-levels designed to be both safe and inspiring.

Stream this class for FREE! Practicing yoga, whether at a studio with dozens or at home with just your breath, can be one of the most unifying practices. Around the world at any moment there are likely millions of people bringing together their movement with breath and their hearts with their minds. Using traditional sun salutations to heat the body, we will join together as a collective. This little yogic taste can serve to tone and stretch the body as well as unite the spirit.

This class covers all parts of the body, an everyday aligned flow that taps you into Shakti Kundalini. When we begin to have a relationship with the energy in us, we start to heal and purify feelings of unworthiness, inhibition, doubt and fear. We wake up to the vibrancy of joy, freedom and creativity. This class would be awesome before a meditation practice or even a few minutes of silence at the end. Enjoy!

Every day is a new day, a new opportunity to live our practice, to be our best selves. In this class, Pradeep brings that awareness to the fore and reminds us that through our yoga practice, we gain insight into our true selves - off the mat we then bring that goodness and authenticity into other people's lives. It is our calling and our duty to live this yoga for the betterment of our world. This class includes classic sun salutation variations, simple standing postures, and yet, considerable challenge even for experienced yogis.
