Christen Bakken

As humans, we can be very forward thinking. We can spread ourselves way to thin. If you think about dogs, a well-behaved dog doesn't live out on the edge of its leash always pulling toward the next thing. A disciplined dog knows how to heel. Since we aren't dogs, by no means is this practice meant to treat you like one - however through the playful exploration of many of the dog poses AND anchoring ourselves here and now, we will work on the discipline it takes to heel. And through this heeling, we might activate your own healing. This vinyasa class is well-rounded, but with a slight emphasis on hamstring opening.

Ok but generic poses. Sometimes we hope for something a bit out of the routine

great class, great instructor! My first time with her. I appreciate the constant reminders to do what is the hardest thing in yoga to do: constantly refocus on breath.

Loved this class. Very easy to follow cues and had a nice flow to it. I liked using the blocks for support.
Also I appreciated the theme of heeling.

Moving slow and staying in the moment before shift to next, this is not easy for me. This class is easy if you don t take long enough in a pause to feel, yet if you stay, you see what you sre supposed to see. It is not easy to me. Thank you.

I love this idea of “lassoing” your mind to the breath and the present. It feels like reining in the chaos with a big hug!

Loved the workout & the focus. It was REALLY focused on breath & centering.
Overall pace was slower than my most comfortable tempo, but good for grounding.
