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, […]

In this video, you'll be introduced to simple modifications for the 26 poses and 2 breathing exercises that are done in every traditional "Bikram" style hot yoga studio.

Have you been curious about “Hot Yoga” but nervous to try a class because you’ve heard that it’s intense and sweaty + you suspect that your core, knees, and shoulders aren’t ready?

Shining Savasana – E/TS

Filmed at the closing of our Winter Conference in 2021, this routine wrapped up the day and helped all of us relax and reward ourselves. Savasana is the yoga term for “corpse pose” where you’re laying down, flat and settled, like you’re grey and dead. Except it’s one of the most life-giving poses to me. […]

Blue Breathing – E/TS

There is a way to breath that sounds like an ocean in the back of your throat. It’s a way to strengthen and stretch your voice and deep neck muscles that surround your trachea and larynx.

Orange Oxygen – E/TS

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.

M/TS – Classic Flow A

In traditional yoga, if you practice in the classic style, several rounds of sun salutations or Suryanamaskara are woven into nearly every class.
