Strengthen & Tone

If you think it takes a fast pace and lots of vinyasa to get a powerfully challenging practice - turn off your thoughts and try this extraordinary class with Shy. With unique movements inspired by South Indian classical dance & martial art modalities, this class will surprise, inspire and challenge you, while opening your hips in the most powerful and effective way!

In this class we’ll be focusing on your back, liberating your spine through twists and freeing the flow of energy through the central channel. This class improves spine flexibility, supports healthy digestion and boosts a sense of aliveness.

You’ll need a block for this class.

This short & effective practice will create a lot of space & stability in your upper body. It's the perfect antidote to a desk job. There are opportunities for inversions & alternatives are offered.

This short and effective glute-focused practice will move through glute-based drills while folding the legs differently to target your derrière from all angles. Take care to engage your core and focus on initiating the actions from the glute muscles. Finish the last bit of class near a wall to further challenge the strength of the tush.

This class is inspired by my own journey to strengthen my glutes. For many of us, our glutes are weak and this is what can cause lower back pain, hip, knee and ankle issues. Flow through this sequence while bringing particular focus to both glute maximus and glute medius. An educational and fun class that will burn your glutes but leave you feeling energized and rejuvenated.

Join me for this quick (yet very effective!) full body barre class. Grab a light set of weights for upper body and one heavier weight (if you have it) for a barre-less/chairless lower body section. Dive right in with a dynamic warm up and expect to break a sweat before you move into the succeeding plank and spinal strengthening series. Finish class with a few minutes of core work before you are on your way to enjoy the rest of your day!

Chakra Balancing Yoga will manage the flow of energy in the body. By practicing this sequence you will release blocked energies and create harmony in your body to nurture physical and emotional well-being. You will experience increased openness, feel energized and more aware in body, mind and spirit.

This series of yoga classes will help you open and invigorate the entire body, starting slow, gradually warming up and building towards a flow. This programme is a great choice if you would like to connect with your body through a slow flow and feel every cell come alive.

Class 1: Creating Space

In this session we’ll be focusing on creating space across the side body. We’ll be opening the chest, shoulders and the sides of the spine. This practice will help breathe deeper by creating more space for your lungs and heart. It is also a great choice of practice for connective tissue health as it addresses the lateral fascia lines of the body.

You’ll be needing a blanket if you have sensitive knees and an optional block for this class.

This flow will have your legs burning in no time!! Strengthen your quads and hip flexors in this dynamic, challenging and fun sequence. If you sit a lot during the day or if you've been running or walking a lot then this class is for you! You can do the whole sequence without a block but you will get more burn if you use the prop.

The core is so much more than just the superficial muscles we see on models and influencers. While this sequence does work those superficial muscles it also brings focus to the deeper core muscles. Use your abdominals and core in this class as you move through standing poses, balancing poses and pranayama. You will sweat, maybe curse but hopefully also have some fun.

This yin and yang express practice will have you work the core, hips, and legs to warm up the body quickly. You will be familiar with the poses, so focus on breathing to find heat as you move. Expect to get a little bit of a challenge with some playful poses.

Less linear. Less push/pull. More dynamic, fluxive, loopy and cascading and impossible to jam into a bland, tidy package. Here's a potent little Devotional Intensive to remind of that exact lesson regarding time, life and of course, Consciousness itself, all centering on a Warrior II-based mandala sequence to delight the soul and remind you that life is never just forwards/backwards, because how boring would that be? Get to it.

A yoga practice doesn't have to be 90 minutes to be effective. Join me for this short, full body practice. Perfect as a warm up before a hike/run/HIIT session or a beautiful practice on its own if you are short on time. Not suitable for beginners.

Yoga is not interested in your hardcore striving. Yoga is in mad love with your breath, your intention, your complete and unbridled devotion to the moment you are in, no matter what it might contain or how uncomfortable, or clumsy, or baffled you might be. Here's a 30-minute Vinyasa ignition that invites exactly that understanding. Work hard to find stillness and grace, not aggro aggression. You're gonna love it.

Mars Workout: Harness the energy of Mars.

Mars is the planet of action, passion, and desire. Mars is the HITT class where we will be moving our bodies, building our strength, and raising our hearts!

We are, if nothing else, an overly hunched culture. This short but energetically delicious Intensive focuses on a handful of potent camel pose variations (among others) to really open the chest, invigorate the upper spine and bring space to the heart and head, so real devotional energy can swirl and inspire. Move slowly. Don't get dizzy. Stop analyzing everything. You'll be fine.


Spotify playlist for Devotion Intensive IV: Smoking Camels

Practicing yoga begins with release. We exhale to unite our breath for an inhale. We work through tension - in the body and the spirit. And when we use the mind, we can also release ideas and patterns we have "bought" that we recognize we no longer want or need. To "sell the goat" is a practice of all this. With the help of our breath, we will move through this well-rounded sequence and find a greater sense of contentment for what we already have.

It's not all heat and grunt and push. Sometimes you gotta slow it down a little, get down to the floor and just be a little more patient. This short, potent practice really admires your hamstrings, appreciates your lower back, and of course, encourages lots more of your devotional attention. Can you handle it? You can totally handle it.

Spotify playlist for Devotion Intensive III: Do It On the Floor

Look, going "deep" has nothing to do with force, push, cranking it out and getting it done. It has everything to do with diving through various layers of psycho-emotional crap so you can be fully present with what you're doing, even if (especially if?) it's challenging or normally makes you whimper and whine.

Here's a brief but vivid, 30-minute full-body plunge into exactly what that might mean. Is it enough? Hell, no. But it's a most excellent taste.

This is the 5th and final class of the Men's Yoga 101 series!! This class is a compilation/combination of all 4 prior classes of the series. Combined in this class is some of the core work you've worked on, mobility drills and poses, standing poses, some HIIT and more! if you've been working your way to this point in the series, I congratulate you for your efforts! I hope this series has been useful and helpful in building a strong positive relationship with yourself - maybe even shed a few pounds and improve your capacity to breathe :)) if you are here for this class without having done the series - I hope you enjoy! All my best, Robert

Enjoy this short full-body burn that will be sure to wake you up and get you moving in no time. All you need is a light set of weights (1-5 lbs) and you’ll be sure to break a sweat, feel the burn and elevate your heart rate. After a series of standing poses, you can look forward to coming down to the ground for some core and Pilates-inspired glute work.

You will finish this 20 minute class more yoked than when you started! Get ready for some heavy lifting combined with resistance band work to help you feel your absolute strongest.

New to Pilates? Here's your introduction where Claire focuses on proper technique, mind-body connection, and correct breathing.

(excellent preparation for Claire's Pilates/Yoga fusion classes.)

Power yoga builds serious strength, and this power vinyasa flow will make you break a sweat and get a great workout in just 20 minutes! Enjoy and namaste!

This is a FREE vigorous, deeply felt 30-minute full-body swirl to bring you NOT into a state of more agitation and let's-attack-the-day, but rather a potent form of... stillness. What? You read that right.

Look, you can't go "deep" through mere force and push and hurry up already. That's just exhausting. You go deep through intention, watching your breath, and practicing keeping your attention from scattering about like a manic chihuahua, especially when things get challenging. It's the only way.
