Somatics, Emotions & Nervous System Regulation

In this first Vinyasa class, we explore the foundational flow of Sun Salutations—building strength, flexibility, and inner awareness. This is a somatic practice focused on tuning in, not pushing. Move gently, breathe deeply, and reconnect with your body, one sensation at a time. You’re here to feel, not to force.

In today’s class, we explore the power of twists to release tension, stimulate digestion, and support emotional balance. As you move through each pose, breathe deeply and tune in to the sensations within. This is a practice of spaciousness, softness, and self-awareness—inviting calm with every breath and twist.

This Vinyasa class is all about balance—on the mat and within yourself. Through grounding postures, conscious breath, and focused awareness, you’ll explore how stability comes from presence, not perfection. Fall, reset, breathe, and return—this is where the real balance begins.

This Yin Yoga class invites you to gently release tension stored in the hips—physically, emotionally, and energetically. Through long-held postures and deep breath, you’ll create space to soften, let go, and reconnect with yourself. No forcing, just feeling. Show up with patience and compassion, and allow your hips to open in their own time.

This heart-opening Yin Yoga class is designed to gently expand the chest and shoulders—helping to release tension, improve posture, and create space for emotional healing. Through long, supported stretches and mindful breath, we invite the body to soften and the heart to open. Come as you are, and let this practice guide you toward greater ease, lightness, and self-connection.

In this gentle Yin Yoga practice, we focus on releasing physical and emotional tension in the lower back—an area deeply connected to our sense of stability and safety. Through long-held, nourishing poses, we create space in the body and invite softness into places that often carry stress and fear. This is a practice of deep release, grounded breath, and compassionate awareness. Come settle in, let go, and reconnect with ease.

This energizing Power Yoga class is all about building strength from the inside out—starting with your core. More than just abs, your core is your body’s powerhouse, supporting every movement and anchoring your sense of balance and stability. As we flow through strong, intentional poses, you’ll not only activate your physical core but also connect with your inner resilience. Come breathe, move, and tap into your strength—on the mat and beyond.

This strong and steady Power Yoga class will help you tap into the strength of your legs—your physical and emotional foundation. Through powerful standing poses and grounding flows, you’ll build endurance, stability, and resilience. Let each movement root you deeper into your body and remind you of your ability to stand tall, steady, and unshaken—on the mat and in life.

This Power Yoga class will help you build strength in your arms and shoulders, empowering you to carry life’s physical and emotional weight with grace. As we strengthen and open this powerful area, we’ll also release the tension and burdens that may be weighing you down. Through each movement, you’ll tap into both your physical power and inner resilience, creating space for freedom, strength, and lightness.

In this first class of "Breathe" module, we’ll explore the 3-Steps Breath. This simple yet powerful technique helps you reconnect with your natural, deep breath, engaging the diaphragm, ribcage, and chest. By learning to breathe fully, you’ll release tension, reduce stress, and calm your nervous system.

In this class we’ll practice the 4-7-8 Breath, a powerful technique to help you relax by lengthening the exhale, which activates your parasympathetic nervous system for rest and recovery.

At the end, we’ll practice the humming breath to deepen the calming effect and soothe both body and mind through vibration.

Listen to your body—adjust the counts if needed, just keep the exhale longer than the inhale for maximum benefit.

In this class we are going to practice Bastrika pranayama. This energizing breath technique activates the body and clears the mind through rapid, forceful inhalations and exhalations. Bhastrika boosts energy, improves circulation, and sharpens focus.

In this class, we’ll explore two powerful breathing techniques to bring balance to both body and mind: Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing) and Box Breathing.

Nadi Shodhana helps to harmonize the energy channels in the body, while Box Breathing is a structured technique that calms the nervous system and promotes mental clarity. Together, these practices create a perfect balance of relaxation and subtle activation, helping you feel grounded, centered, and at ease.

In this somatic movement class, we’ll gently release the heaviness of sadness through breath and movement, opening the chest and expanding the breath to reconnect with a sense of joy.

We’ll also include the stimulation of the Lung meridian—associated with grief in Traditional Chinese Medicine—to support emotional release and create more space for lightness.

By shifting our posture and breath, we invite the body to move from heaviness to openness, letting joy flow back in.

For the free movement section, I invite you to play a piece of music in the background—ideally one that evokes a sense of sadness or melancholy, perhaps featuring the piano. Music can be a powerful ally in helping us connect more deeply with what lives inside.

Here is a Spotify link with a few tracks you can draw inspiration from.

In this somatic movement class, we’ll explore the emotion of anger.

Anger activates our “fight” response, creating a powerful surge of energy—but when that energy isn’t released, it can build up in the body as tension, discomfort, or even pain.

This class isn’t just about letting go; it’s about finding balance. As we work through the tension, we’ll shift toward softening the heart and inviting in love and compassion. Through grounding breath, dynamic movement, and heart-centered focus, you’ll create space to transform anger into something healing and empowering.

For the free movement section, I invite you to play a rhythmic and powerful song in the background—something with a strong beat that helps you move, shake, and release tension. Music with driving drums or an intense rhythm can support the release of built-up energy and help you fully express what your body is holding.

You’ll find a few track suggestions in this Spotify link to get inspired.

In this somatic movement practice, we’ll explore the emotion of fear and its antidote: trust and safety. Fear activates the body’s fight, flight, or freeze response—an important survival mechanism, but one that can leave behind tension when not released.

Fear often shows up as tightness in the hips, chest, or belly, shallow breath, or a frozen, braced body. Through grounding breath and fluid, intuitive movement, we’ll create space for that energy to move and release safely.

As we soften the physical tension, we’ll also begin to cultivate trust—trust in your body, in the present moment, and in your capacity to feel grounded and supported. This shift helps move us from a state of contraction to one of connection.

For the free movement section, I recommend playing a track that feels expansive and liberating—something that starts gently but gradually builds in depth and rhythm. Choose music that makes you want to open, take up space, and move with freedom. Atmospheric or downtempo tracks with soft beats or flowing melodies can help you shift from contraction into spaciousness.
You’ll find a few musical suggestions in this Spotify link to support your journey.

In this somatic movement practice, we’ll focus on releasing stress and anxiety, while reconnecting with their antidote: presence. Anxiety pulls us into the future—into worry, “what ifs,” and hypervigilance—leaving the body tense and the mind overwhelmed.

Through breath and movement, we’ll gently guide the body out of that heightened state and back into the present moment. We’ll focus on softening the areas where anxiety often lives—like the shoulders, neck, and chest—and use conscious breath to calm the nervous system.

This practice is about returning home to yourself. When we shift from anxious thinking to embodied presence, we create space for ease, clarity, and calm.

For the free movement section, I recommend choosing a track that starts with a steady or powerful rhythm—something that allows you to shake off tension and move freely—and then gradually slows down into something softer and more grounding. This kind of musical arc can support the nervous system in releasing anxiety and settling into deeper presence.

I’ll also include a Spotify link with a few suggested tracks to inspire your practice and help guide the emotional arc of the movement.

In this meditation, we’ll explore the landscape of your emotions with mindfulness and compassion. You’ll learn to observe your feelings without judgment, creating space to understand and work with them in a more conscious way.

Through body awareness, emotional exploration, and self-compassion, you’ll cultivate a deeper connection with your inner experience, fostering emotional resilience and a greater sense of peace.

This walking meditation invites you to connect with the present moment through mindful movement. As you walk, you'll bring awareness to each step, each breath, and each sensation in your body. By grounding yourself in the rhythm of your walk and the flow of your breath, you’ll cultivate a deeper sense of presence and connection.

In this guided meditation, we’ll move through the R.A.I.N. practice—a gentle, structured approach to working with difficult emotions through mindfulness and compassion. R.A.I.N. stands for: Recognize, Allow, Investigate with kindness, and Nurture with compassion.

This practice invites you to slow down, bring awareness to what you’re feeling, and offer yourself care rather than judgment.

Yoga Nidra, often referred to as "yogic sleep," is a deeply restful practice that guides you into a state of conscious relaxation. While your body rests deeply, your mind stays alert and aware, allowing you to experience a profound sense of relaxation and inner peace. This practice helps reduce stress, promote healing, and enhance mindfulness.
