  • Welcome to the intermediate series of classes. These practices are a little more challenging for your strength, flexibility and balance.
    This is a 45 minute vinyasa class. Part 10 filmed on location at Shoreham Ocean beach, Mornington Peninsula.
    Class focuses on mobilising the shoulders, opening the chest, strengthening and toning the back muscles. A great class for restoring range of motion in the shoulders and better bilateral balance in the front and back body.
    Begin gently with some static and flow shoulder openers, then gradually build some heat through the standing pose sequences interspersed with some refreshing & heart openers (skydiver, bow and partridge). Practice dancers pose with a belt, then slow and cool with a hip opener, twist and forward fold or optional inversion.
    An approachable, energising intermediate class with modifications offered.
    For practice, (not essential but helpful) a blanket and a yoga belt or something similar.

    I love the longer practice, the freedom to explore inversions at the end was nice. I was scared to try headstand so went for the shoulder stand instead. I thought shavasana was particularly good for cultivating gratitude. As always you deserve so much gratitude for all that you do. Thank you.

      My pleasure! I love the final product too. A little more challenging to shoot but I’m keenly now scoping different locations for future classes. Hard, flat ground my first priority- so different practicing outdoors, especially balance. What I didn’t expect at this location was the black cockatoos dislodging the pines and pines cones from the trees above. They were dropping like bombs! Lol. 😊

    Perfect perfect perfect - thank you so much for this lesson, e.g. your teaching had an immediate effect on my Wheel, the 8Angles towrds the end for twisting! Massive load you dish out for your students, so so wonderful! Indeed, as you say, the lateral mobility of the spine is usually very neglected, just yesterday I had a patient with inflammation of her breast vertebrae, until I could show her cns the lateral twists possible, her very satisfied "no idea what you just did, the pain's all gone!" smile was priceless...Thank you, dear Diona! ❤️🙏🏻

      I’ve got to say I’m so grateful for the content I find myself on UA-cam. It’s massively informed my own learning and teaching. I don’t bend backwards or twist easily, I’ve always struggled so finding accessible and new approaches to practice is always valuable. And happy to hear the prompts were valuable to you and your patients too. Gold 😊

      @@TwoBirdsYoga There is so much goodness that Mother Nature has to offer us for our wholesome well being. My meditative theme of the past week has been about my deeper connection to Nature. I am very grateful and fortunate to live in this place and interact so close with the natural world every day. My yogic experience with your graceful guidance helps me cultivate, nurture and refine that union with a much deeper sense. I was so delighted when I came home to see your new video and that you were sharing another natural experience with the world. The energy shared blended so well with the flow of my day. Taking shade in the red pines, snapshots of the vastness of the wilderness from atop a hilltop plateau of blueberries overlooking two large bodies of water, a deer fawn appearing into an openness through the trees, a black bear scurrying away from his shaded patch, the cooling refreshing caressing of the wind and the sweet taste of snacking those berries as I moved gently through the bushes.
      The infinite wonders of this beautiful planet never cease to amaze me.
      My mantra of the week " I embrace Mother Nature and Mother Nature embraces me"
      Thank you again for sending your energy from your beautiful part of the earth through the universal field to my hallowed ground here.

      Pure presence. With your message I was able to appreciate your landscape. Shooting outdoors for me elicits this kind of presence. I’ve surfed at this beach for the past 7 years and had never immersed myself in the pine forest above the surf break. So glad I did. The camera doesn’t do it justice. I had beautiful black cockatoos circling above, the sound and smell of the ocean below and gazing up toward the magnificent trees. Hard to balance but we are lucky huh? I would love to see your view!! I’ll email you my email. 🙏😊☀️
