What are Awakening Flow Classes Like?

Awakening yoga works through a traditional base in Hatha-Vinyasa, combined with a more functional practice adapted to modern life. This innovative approach seeks to create new movement patterns by systematically working on four essential elements:

Strength building that supports your daily activities

Coordination to enhance mind-body connection

Balance for stability in movement and stillness

Flexibility to expand your range of motion

Each class is designed as a journey of conscious self-exploration, where creative and enjoyable sequences serve as the foundation for deeper awareness. The practice integrates strength training with the principle of "effort without strain," ensuring that challenge comes with mindfulness and respect for your body's limits.

The functional approach includes mindful mobility work specifically designed to expand ranges of motion and create new movement patterns that serve you both on and off the mat. This makes Awakening Flow particularly relevant for modern practitioners seeking to counteract the effects of sedentary lifestyles while honoring traditional yoga principles.

Connect with your body and its innate freedom to clear your mind, and enjoy the present moment by fully immersing yourself in this transformative practice.
