GENTLE FLOW YOGA AT HOME
Find a quiet space, roll out your mat on a firm surface, and practice some gentle flowing yoga at any time you wish with unlimited access to 4-6 pre-recorded 60-minute classes, taught by Andrea. Begin with mindfulness, breath, and stretching, progress to poses that stay low to the ground, cultivating focus and strength, then challenge yourself with standing and balance postures, with the ability to customize according to your body and needs. Yoga props and music playlists are suggested to help create an experience as close to an in-person class as possible. Students will meet and talk with Andrea via phone or Zoom prior to starting the series and are encouraged to stay in touch.
FAQs
WHAT IF I HAVE NEVER DONE YOGA?
No problem, this class moves slowly, I describe and show every pose, and encourage you to modify according to what feels best in your body.
WHERE SHOULD I SET UP MY YOGA MAT?
I recommend anywhere that is distraction-free and temperature-regulated with a firm, even surface, such as tile, wood, or concrete. Try to avoid grass or carpet because it won't give you enough support under your feet and hands.
WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
- A phone, iPad or computer to stream the class. You can also mirror the screen to your TV for a larger image.
- A yoga mat that is not squishy or slippery.
- 2 yoga blocks (you can find them online, at Target or a sporting goods store, or order through me.
- A tightly woven blanket (such as a Mexican blanket)
- Optional: Bluetooth headphones to increase the volume of my voice
- Optional: A separate device (computer, phone, etc) to stream music
- Optional: A Spotify subscription to play my designated playlists
WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS?
I am always available to talk to by phone or Zoom. When you sign up, I schedule a call to discuss previous injuries or issues that you may need to work around. I love to get feedback from my students about what is working and what could be improved.
