Feeling heavy? Lethargic? Sleepless? You may have a kapha imbalance or it simply may be Kapha time of year: early spring. This dynamic, sweaty Vinyasa flow class is designed to stimulate slow energy, sluggish digestion, and heaviness. You’ll sweat, twist, balance in poses like Ardha Chandrasana (Half-moon), Vasisthasana (side plank), Garudasana (Eagle), with options for arm balances like side crow. Core work and spine strengthening round out this balanced class. Get ready to heat up!

This is a great full body flow. Although I think it would be accessible to beginners, I think new practitioners might find the transitions difficult if unfamiliar with the names of poses. I will do this one again. Thanks for sharing this practice.

Wonderful class. I love that Claire s flows are never complicated, but never easy either. It s nice to remember that yoga doesn t need to be complicated or flashy to work (physically and spiritually). I love that she gave so many alternatives along the way. It s delightful when an all levels class means that you can make it as intense or as gentle as you need.

Thanks for another super flow!

Another great class by Claire. I ve missed so many of your wonderful classes by doing only advanced intermediate classes. This was perfect to energize me, challenging enough and I worked up a sweat. I feel like every part of my body was affected. Thanks

This has been in my favorites for awhile but don t think I ever did a review. Wonderful class as always by Claire, great direction, could not do side crow but everything else very doable. Great practice!

I love this whole series by Claire. She clearly knows her Ayurvedic doshas. Not only does each class beautifully counteract the imbalance I am feeling if one dosha is too dominant, but each class also meets me where I am. For instance, when I’m all pitta, as I often am, that class lets me feel like I am getting a vigorous workout while also cooling down. This class does the opposite. After a weekend long holiday celebration with too much heavy, rich food and too much wine, too little sleep, and cold weather that’s not making it easy for me to avoid my husband’s cold, I was about as Kapha influenced as I have ever been. This class did everything I needed it to do: detoxing twists, warming flow, core, back bends. It warmed me right up. At the same time, it didn’t feel like I was having my butt kicked, which I had no desire to feel in my lethargic state. Thanks for being my favorite remedy to keep my immune system and body in balance, Claire!

Thanks so much Becca! Your thoughtful, detailed review is so helpful and kind. You made my day. I love Ayurveda and am so glad it translates to the screen.

I really enjoyed this class. It was definitely intermediate with just a couple of alternatives if you were more advanced. Pace and cues were perfect for me.

Loved, loved, loved this class! The pace was great and was so happy to see a class based on Kapha balancing. Would love to see many more classes by Claire that are specifically attuned to the Doshas and that incorporate forearm handstand and regular handstand against the wall.

OceanSoulYoga commented on this review

Thanks Ali!
Have you tried Ground Your Vata Flow? You ll enjoy that too.
I ll be filming a class specifically for Pitta next time I m in the studio.

A nice relaxing yoga flow,but I would love a few more of Claire s speciality fusion classes- I love the way she can fuse a bit of pilates and barre into classes!!

This was a great class. I m just getting over a cold, and this was perfectly paced, had great cues and was challenging enough that I know I ll make me sweat each time... even when I m healthy. Great balancing sequence too. Not too much to frustrate, but enough to feel the burn in my butt. :)

Glad it burned your butt! :) Seriously, thanks for the review. Glad you enjoyed it!

Terrific class! I love the flow and the way you build upon the poses. Your classes are challenging but your cuing is great and eases me into the poses. Today was the first time that I actually had my leg parallel to the top of the mat for half pigeon. I also managed to hold side crow... as you said... just long enough :)

Great class!
