Practice your way LIVE, ONLINE through the series of thoughtfully-designed sequences in classes taught by Holly, including a restorative-pranayama practice to cultivate deep relaxation of the body and peace of mind.

All level practitioners, including Beginners, will learn how to:

  • Establish the foundation of a well-rounded and beneficial Yoga practice. 
  • Practice methodically, starting from the ground up. 
  • Master the primary actions of the poses, which are essential ingredients for those new to Yoga practice and for those practicing at the intermediate and advanced levels.
  • Connect the primary actions to their therapeutic effects on the body-mind. 
  • Modify the poses as needed to practice safely and optimally with some knee and hip issues, low back pain, restricted movement in the neck and shoulders, general stiffness, menstruation, etc. 
  • Integrate the basic principles of Yoga philosophy into the physical practice so the philosophy becomes a dynamic, living experience. 
  • Improve the quality of their life off the mat with this holistic practice.
  • Develop the strength and flexibility required to confidently practice inverted poses. Alternatives/modifications will be taught so these important poses and their life-changing benefits are available to all.
