In recent weeks I have posted various at-home workout videos via FB and the weekly MailChimp Newsletter. BUT, in case you have not seen them, here are a few I made several weeks ago.
Stay tuned to the website for additional videos this week!

Like you, I still need to move and breathe, do yoga and exercise. I have made a couple of videos as gifts to you…YOU HAVE NO IDEA what a big deal it is for me to have made these videos. I had to learn new skills. I had to trust in the process. I had to figure out technological things.
My intention for you is that you stay safe, that you continue to move and breathe, that you can afford to be out of work, if that is the case for you. I hope that you can use this break from the world to reconnect with yourselves, your kids, your significant others and nature (go for a walk). I am trusting in the process and I look forward to reopening the gym and seeing you all in class. If you are in a position where you are not getting a break from work or the world, THANK YOU for doing what you have to do. Be sure to take some time for yourself. Simple yoga breathing can do wonders! Mindfully breathe, maybe even while you drive. Deep breath in, long breath out! This pattern of mindful breathing can take our central nervous system from a state of Fight and Flight to one of Rest and Restore.
In the meantime, here are the links to the videos. As in all physical practices, be sure only do what you can. Don’t do anything if you experience pain or feel extreme discomfort. Be gentle with yourselves, especially if you haven’t practiced or worked out in a while. These videos are not by any means professional products…you are getting me…honest, raw and uncensored…no editing…nothing fancy…just like in class! Do them with an open mind, expecting nothing and noticing what you experience. If you do the Kick Boxing video, it can be nice on the body to do the Gentle Yoga video right after. Hopefully I can add a Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep meditation) and Breathing Meditation next!
