Slow Flow with Sonia – Class 1: Connect

This is a vinyasa (flowing with breath) style yoga class that combines a variety of sequences inspired from Ashtanga, Classical Hatha and Yin Yoga and includes postures ranging from beginner to advanced intermediate. The sequences are done more slowly giving students a better opportunity to notice alignment, sensation and breath. Accommodations and adaptations are made to suit the needs and level of each student in this well-rounded practice that incorporates poses to build flexibility, strength and balance, coupled with conscious breathwork and relaxation techniques. This is a class that evolves with students who enroll in the Slow Flow Class Monthly Series, adding variations and novelty to foundational sequences and deepens the more familiar aspects by encouraging greater interoception (the perception of sensations from inside your body). This yogic choreography where the breath holds the space to explore both challenge and rest, is great for building resilience.
