Hot Yoga Flow I – C/TS 💙

This builds on our 'Hot Yoga Prep' workout which is a set pattern of 26 poses practiced in many studios around the world. It’s far from TummySafe, yet it’s very beneficial for flexibility, spines, knees, lymphatics, digestion, and more. So I’ve been studying it and breaking it down into a Diastasis-aware series you can practice at home. This workout contains all the standing poses at a harder level than the prep video we already released, yet still “holding back” and modifying. Hot Yoga Flow II (releasing 2024) contains all the floor poses. Please note that the autogenerated captions don’t speak Sanskrit even though 2 million people do LOL!

This challenging routine builds on our ‘Hot Yoga 26 + 2 Prep‘ workout which would be wise to do before this one. Hot Yoga is a set pattern of 26 poses practiced in many studios around the world. Traditionally, it’s far from TummySafe, yet the poses are scientifically proven to be very beneficial for flexibility, […]

Pink Piriformis – Hip Stretches – E/TS

Your piriformis is a muscle in the back of your hips under your gluteals that can wreak havoc if it’s upset… and it tends to get upset more often in females than males – likely due to our wider hips and softening hormones. Speaking of females, pink is for girls, right? Well, Japan sees pink […]

Orange Openers – M/TS

Continuing with our brilliant orange focus on the muscles around the hips, this sunny routine shines light on lots of ways to open & extend our hip flexors.

The first half […]

Black BattleSticks – C/TS

They handed me two wooden drumsticks and a permanent marker. Then they told me to write what I was fighting for on each one. I wasn’t sure where to start, so I wrote my children’s names on them. Then the music started, and I lost myself in the rhythm and drumming. I knew I had […]

K/TS – Kids Bedtime Routine

K/TS - Kids Bedtime Routine - fit2b.com
