June wrapped up a three-month journey through the body, culminating in our From Head to Heels theme — and wow, did we discover a lot. Holding standing poses for ten breaths offered surprising insight into how much is happening in each shape. This post reflects on what unfolded over those weeks: subtle shifts, growing confidence, and a deepening awareness of how every part of the body works together, one pose at a time.

In May, we explored the ‘Free-Flow Hips’ theme, focusing on unlocking hip mobility through dynamic, flowing movements. This reflection shares the sequence’s key poses, the challenge of smooth transitions, and how the practice offers options for all bodies. It’s about breaking free from the seated stiffness many of us experience, building warmth, and creating a versatile routine that fits into busy lives while preparing us for the whole-body journey ahead.

Yoga philosophy is often seen as abstract, but in my classes, it’s woven quietly through the way we move and relate. In this post, I reflect on how the Yamas—principles of how we interact with the world—are present in my teaching, even when they’re never named aloud.
