Enjoy this 30 minute slow flow yoga practice. Moving through asanas (poses) with breath we create a mind-body connection. Taking the time to slow down and align, we take these principles off the mat and into our daily lives. No props needed but always encouraged.

Just like nature we must grow strong roots to support our expansion and growth. This yin/yang flow will leave you feeling balanced and recharged.
Please use any props as needed and remember to listen to your body.

Now Join me from my yoga room on the North shore of Maui for Ground Down Yoga.
When life gets hectic and overwhelming, it’s difficult not to get stuck in your head — overthinking.
This can lead to feeling like you’re on autopilot or out-of-tune with your body. When you begin to feel disconnected, bringing yourself back to Earth, so to speak, can alleviate some of that everyday stress and stop the pattern of overthinking.
This class focuses on hip openers and root chakra (base of the spine) grounding poses.
If you are using props, I recommend a block, blanket and yoga strap.

Join me on the North shore of Maui for this 25 minute Rize & Shine morning yoga flow. This is a steady paced invigorating yoga practice that connects movement and breath, also known in Sanskrit as, Vinyasa.
When we practice asanas (poses) we are opening the body in new ways to new possibilities, which then, opens the mind to new possibilities. This creates a mind-body connection. When we experience this, we begin to live in a state of FLOW.
No props needed, but always encouraged. Modify if you need to or take a child's pose. Remember to listen to your body.

I am committed to helping our Ohana navigate this hectic modern life by bridging the gap between the inner and outer worlds with the intention of embodying our true essence.
You deserve to find inner peace and salvation. You deserve to feel the deep gratitude yoga provides for becoming a little better every day and experiencing these benefits long after you’ve stepped off the mat...

Join me in my backyard, on the North Shore of Maui, for a quick vinyasa yoga, 7 minute Go with the Flow. This is a great sequence to do during a lunch break or when you are short on time. This flow will help to re-awaken and energize you for the rest of your day.
If you can, I would recommend taking your practice out into nature, because nature is the best medicine.

Join me on the South side of Maui, for a pranayama practice called Nadi Shodhana or sun moon breath. This alternate nostril breathing helps to balance the flow of energy through the pingala (sun channel) and ida (moon channel).
These channels wind up the susmna nadi (central energy channel) like a double helix. They cross behind the third eye and come out the nostrils. The Sun channel carries masculine energy or thought. The moon channel carries feminine energy or emotion.
Sun moon breath is a quieting breath that is very subtle and slow. There should be no sound to the breath.
Breathe as if you were sitting in front of a candle flame. This is a cooling, calming and balancing breath usually practiced before meditation, savasana or before bed.

Join me on the South side of Maui, for a three part breath pranyama (breathwork) also called belly breathing. This breath helps us explore the full spectrum of our breath potential. The 3 part natural breath is the foundation for developing other pranayama techniques.
This breathing exercise will help you to deepen your breath, calm your nervous system and steady the mind.

Join me on the South side of Maui, as we practice a pranayama called Breath of Fire sometimes called kapalabhati (skull-shining) because it purifies the mind of cloudy or negative thinking.
Breath of Fire is a cleansing energizing breath powered by abdominal contractions. This breath can be used before meditation or asana (poses) to stimulate awareness and focus. It also deepens the breath by activating the diaphragm.
Breath of fire is a series of short sharp exhales out the nose by pulling the low belly back sharply. Inhales come naturally.
Start by taking a natural round of breath in and out, then breathe in about 75% full, exhale out the nose and draw the navel towards the spine to create a pumping motion. Focus on the exhales, the inhales are natural and passive,
Continue for about 10 to 20 abdominal contractions and then exhale completely. Take a natural round of breath in and out between rounds.
After 3 rounds of Kapalabhati continue to breathe naturally and observe any inner sensations as you drop into meditation. You might feel a little light headed or a buzz from all that breath, so take your time before standing up.
