If you know you need a little more space today, you can take your knees wide. If it's more support that you're looking for in the back body, go ahead with the knees together. Take your arms forward, Drop your forehead down to the mat. Just let your hips drop back onto your heels and use this brief moment here to connect with your usual you breathing. Because this is a level one practice, I'm gonna move a little slower and even give you modifications that you can take from this class into the other classes, restricting the muscles just gently at the back of your throat, allowing for you to create that ocean wave sound or even just regulate your inhalations and exhalations so that t...

For anybody who's beginning with Vin Yasa flow gripped the mat with your fingertips, root firmly through the index finger knuckles and really firm the forearms in. As you spread the shoulder blades wide. We're just gonna begin to make clockwise circles, taking the shoulders beyond the wrists to the side behind and then out to the other side, just making sure that as you do this, you're warming up your wrist. But you're also feeling the weight distribution as you go forward into the fingertips, to the outsides of the hands to the heels of the hands, because the more that you engage your hands, the more that your arms are going to engage as well, and we really want those muscles to protect the joints. Go ahead and do it counterclockwise. Now I'm already starting to feel warm, just making sure that you're still feeling your hands engaged. And then coming back to center into that tabletop position really gripped them out with the fingertips. Tuck your toes under as you inhale, and as you exhale, lift up in back to downward facing dog. But just make sure you still feel your fingertips gripping, cause that'll ensure that you don't dump back too far with the shoulders. Come high up on your toes as you inhale. Put a little bend in your knees as you exhale and then begin to push through the index finger knuckle.

Make sure the hips don't sag and keep the shoulder tips lifted. Bend the elbows, firm the elbows in towards the size of your ribs and then stop when the shoulder tips are in line with the elbows, then lower all the way down to your belly. So the Vin Yasa has four parts. You have your downward facing dog, your plank, your push up, and then you're back then and really, the fifth of one is going to be well. The 4th 1 is going to be going back into your downward facing dog. So we're on our belly, untucked the toes. You're on the tops of your feet. Point your toes.

Bending into your left knee is one thing, but you want to make sure that you're using that left hip so a lot of us end up not using it, where the need is gonna track over none of the toes. So try to get that left me to track over the second toe on your left foot. Draw the outer left hip back, straighten the right leg and really lift the lower belly up into the naval smile.

Sit down onto your but it's OK if it was more of a plopped down onto your butt. Then from here, lead all the way back to the back of your sit bones. If you know your core is having, ah, hard time gripping right now, even keep the feet on the ground, maybe even take your hands behind you. If you want to challenge yourself a little more, take the arms forward. Lift the feet up so that you're making an L shape with the legs.

Forward and do 10 5 six. A little yogi bicycle seven, eight, nine and 10. Great job hugging your knees into your chest, taking Oppen asana, Giving yourself a loving squeeze. Place your feet flat on the mat knees bent feet, hip assistance. You're just gonna lift your hips up trying to get your shins in a nice straight line. Inner lace your fingers underneath your body. Work from shoulder to shoulder until you're high up on the tips of your shoulders Bridge pose. This is a great way to open your shoulders, but at the same time opened the front of your body. Take a deep inhalation here as you exhale. Draw the ribs and naval in and then release. Undo the interlace of your hands. Drop your hips down. Pull your knees into your chest. Last thing here, right knee stays in left leg forward. Take your left hand to your right knee and just take soupy twist, especially when I'm practicing at home. I make sure that even if I have five minutes that I always do one of these supine twists because it is really a great way to release tension around the spine, even around the shoulders. So as you open your right shoulder, you could even gaze past the right shoulder. Think about creating the length across the right side of your body and then inhale. Come on back to center switch legs left me and right leg extends. Twist to the other side. Probably get a couple of cracks, especially if it's your first twist of the day. Now it doesn't really matter if you can get your left knee to the ground. I would prefer that you keep your left shoulder blade down, gaze past your left shoulder and instead of thinking about twisting or ringing out the body, think about moving the right or excuse me, the left hip away from the left shoulder. That's the space you need to actually create the space around the muscles around the spine and then inhale. Come on back to center. Hug both knees in one last time. Take a deep breath in through the nose inside out. Stretch the legs forward. Take your feet as wide as the mat. Let your feet drop. Open your arms by your side palms up. Close your eyes. Just allow Shiva Sena to be that final pose. That really helps you reap the benefits of your yoga practice. Relax and let go. Feel free to stay here as long as you like. Thank you so much for practicing with me nomis day

Briohny Smyth is an amazing yoga instructor and human. I highly recommend this course. I've been following her online for a few years and have learned so much. She offers modifications and safe steps to learn more advanced poses. She is knowledgeable authentic and kind, everything a yoga teacher should be. I'd love to practice in person with her someday.
