I teach Hatha yoga and in my classes I encourage a mindful approach to the yoga postures (asanas) by using a mixture of challenging and restorative poses to help students tune in with their bodies and breath.

The class I will be teaching at viuYOGA is a traditional Hatha sequence, starting with a pranayama exercise (breath work), surya namaskar (sun salutations) and then moving through a variety of standing and balancing asanas, forward and backbends, hip openers and twists, ending with a final relaxation. I give time in each asana for students to explore the pose, assisting with modifications if needed.
