The physical practice is structured to "open" the front of the body and strengthen the back of the body and it closes with relaxation and meditation intended to help us stay connected to love, gratitude, compassion and the other expansive qualities of our hearts.

This is a moderate class designed to strengthen the physical areas that will help to "balance" many bodies, along with a harmonizing practice for the pranic (energetic) body.

Explore this concept while moving through a slow, balancing flow focused on strengthening areas of our physical bodies that can tend to be weak and stretching areas that can be habitually tight.
