  • Live Asana - 9/22/21 - Fall Equinox (BONUS)

    Live Asana - 9/22/21 - Fall Equinox (BONUS)
    A ritual practice of mandalas in honor of our wholeness and the presence of both light and shadow within us. A practice of gratitude for what this life and people in it have taught us.

  • Refresh - Upper & Lower Body

    REFRESH is a two part practice and you can choose to do one or both depending on what you need in the moment!

    First up is an upper body sequence that renews shoulder and spine mobility.

    Second is a lower body sequence that restores freedom to all 4 quadrants of your hips.

    They’re both thoroug...

  • Live Asana - 7/11/21 - Earth & Water Energies for Cooling

    Live Asana - 7/11/21 - Earth & Water Energies for Cooling - Hip Openers in all 4 quadrants. Plus special guest, my brother Louis Caputo!

  • Shoulder Mobility

    Healthy shoulder mobility requires BOTH strong and flexible shoulder muscles.

    This practice weaves both movements that are strength building and that encourage more extensibility throughout.

    If you hold tension in your shoulders or want to keep this tricky joint as healthy as possible, this one...

  • Solid Ground

    Focus on the present moment has been an effective technique for getting grounded since time immemorial.

    This practice emphasizes legs and hips and your relationship to the solid ground beneath you to support your feeling of presence and stability.

    You might like to have a block for this practice.

  • Uplift

    What the body does, the mind follows and what the mind does, the body follows.

    This truth means one way to hack your mood is to move your body in the ways that are more in alignment with how you want to feel.

    Uplift is a practice to elevate your spirits with side openers and heart openers with ...

  • Moonbeam

    Moonbeams are rays of light reflected from the moon. Unlike the sun’s rays which are associated with heat and action, moonbeams are only visible in the dark of the night, a quieter and cooler time.

    Their energy is that of grounded radiance and this practice embodies that same energy.

    This inten...

  • A New Dawn

    This practice supports any new beginning and an alignment with the energies of activation and expansion into possibility!

    A standing flow culminates in an accessible backbend before grounding down into a hip opener that inspires steadiness.

    Now is your time!

    You might like to have a block for ...

  • Drop In

    Dropping in is about becoming present and bearing witness to yourself in the moment. Where your attention is, your mood, the sensations happening right now in your body.

    It’s often harder than it sounds. Some of us need to clear out a little physical and mental clutter first and this practice wi...

  • Dark Side of the Moon

    One of the lunar phases is called the New Moon, when the sun and the moon are on the same side of the Earth, giving the perspective that the Dark Side of The Moon is facing us, or that the moon has turned inward, perhaps to regroup and reboot so she can shine again.

    We’d do well to allow ourselv...

  • Release

    Wouldn’t it be nice if when we decided to RELEASE something that was troubling us that it simply disappeared?!

    But we all know that’s rarely the case.

    What we CAN do though is choose to RELEASE the CHARGE surrounding whatever it is, to clear the emotional path a bit for resolution or forbearanc...

  • Like A River Flows

    Like A River Flows is based on a popular workshop I teach and is inspired by the Earth and Water elements.

    The earth provides structure and the water flows. It winds its way over, around and through obstacles because its nature is adaptable and flexible based on what it has to work with.

    This p...

  • Onward

    This practice was inspired by the grasshopper, a symbol of good luck and abundance. Grasshoppers are blessed, in my opinion, with the power to only move forward – they can’t go backwards or sideways. So they must always call on their courage to gather the resources of the present and charge onwar...

  • Meditation In Motion

    You can simply DO yoga poses to stretch or strengthen your physical body OR you can fully inhabit yoga poses to cultivate extraordinary focus and awareness as well.

    In Meditation in Motion, we embrace the opportunity for sharpening our focus and even up the game by challenging our focus in motio...

  • Low Back Express

    A healthy, high-functioning lower back requires a lot of attention and care. Our backs, especially our lower backs, are major workhorses!

    The more we ask of them, the more we need to give back to them!

    This express practice includes both low back and side body stretches and strengthening movem...

  • Patience

    Patience requires the dual powers of stamina and softening.

    In this home practice, we’ll explore and embody both through repetition, which requires stamina, and hip openers that require softening.

    We’ll also have some well-timed check-ins on our current patience levels as well.

    This fruits of...

  • Balanced Energy

    Sometimes you need to rev up to balance yourself. Sometimes you need to downshift to balance yourself. And sometimes, you need to maintain the balance you’ve got!

    This is one of my SolaLuna practices that is a balanced blend of solar, or active energy and lunar, or receptive energy. We start out...

  • SolaLuna ~ Balanced Energy

    This is one of my favorite types of practices - I call it SolaLuna to reflect that it is equal parts Solar or dynamic energy and Lunar or receptive energy. It's an embodied experience of the union of polarities or seemingly opposite energies.

    We build to a strong crescendo with standing, core an...

  • Immunity Boost

    There are a lot of ways we can support our immunity like rest, hydration and keeping our stress levels down. Another way is to support the movement of lymph, which collects and clears away toxins in our bodies.

    This practice focuses on movement at the main lymph node sites - throat, armpits, gro...

  • Low Back Love

    At one time or another, just about everyone has experienced low back pain due to overuse, underuse, strain or stress.

    I created this home practice to support you in gently moving your spine in every direction, to stretch and strengthen the muscles that do that and to bring awareness to abdominal...
