Every Sat handstand training workshop style class at 9:30 am CET

(intermediate class with a focus on challenging one's balance, mobility, strength and core)

Utthita Trikonasana is a pose which promotes a heart-opening expansion of the chest as we ground down with our feet.
It stretches the hamstrings and back muscles which opens the hip area while activating the abdominal muscles.

A frequent mistake is people wanting to touch the ground with their fingertips which can bring the body into misalignment. It's important to use the right muscles to support the upper body so there is a strong foundation from which to extend.

Top Tips for a healthy Triangle pose with right foot forward

-Turn your left foot in slightly and your right foot out to 90 degrees.
- Align your right heel with your left heel
-Firm your thighs and rotate your right thigh outward
-extend your torso to the right, bending from your hip joint, not the waist. ⠀
- strengthen the left leg, pressing the outer heel firmly to the floor.
-Your hands, arms and shoulders will form a straight line, perpendicular to your mat. (if not, use a block)
- never lock your knee! Engage your leg muscles
- lengthen the tailbone toward the back heel.
-Keep your head in a neutral position

🧘🧘🏻‍♀️Meditation challenge 🧘🏻‍♂️
We have daily morning meditation classes between Mon - Friday with &

You will be guided with experienced teachers every step of the way during the livestream, which is ideal when you are just beginning with meditation.

The practise of meditation is about sitting with what is. No matter what arises, it is instrumental to not judge the experience, but to create a distance between the thinking mind and what lies behind it.

There are many meditation styles that Beatrice and Arlene will cover. Can you tell us what kind of meditation inspires you?

Rise up!

Climber? Or just a yoga practitioner looking to increase mobility and strength to better prepare you for climbing or to better understand your yoga practise?

Yoga cliché:" I am not flexible for yoga" or " I am not the spiritual type" are just some comments we often hear.

There are many facets to yoga. Yoga as a spiritual practise is huge and is important for some, but if you are looking to ALSO better understand your body and it's functionality, then you are at the right place with the classes suited for climbers.

Our "yoga for climbers" classes are suited to everyone looking to dive deeper into the anatomy of the body. Every Tues and Thursday with Andrea and Sarah!

Core strength is an instrumental element to having a balanced body.
Without it we can develop poor posture sometimes resulting in lower back pain which can transmute into a form of lower confidence in how we walk in a room.

Boat is pose is widely mistaken only for using our abs, but the real stars of the show here are your hip flexors, a group of muscles that decreases the angle of your hip joint. We tend to stretch these muscles (hip flexors) often (think lunge for example) , however we equally need to strengthen them. Balance, right?

Top Tips for a healthy boat pose:

-use a block between your thigh legs during boat pose so u have better control over how you stay upright in the pose without sinking into the lower back.
- keep your knees bent if you have tight hamstrings

Sue, Cody and Beatrice all incorporate core work in their weekly classes.

Yogalive experience Hi there, thanks for helping us improve your yoga experience by answering a few questions!

Forrest Yoga is a slow-paced vinyasa practice.
It features pranayama, core work, and long held poses.

This form of yoga will increase your strength and stamina. It can release tension and stress while improving breathing.

Forrest Yoga was created by yoga teacher Ana Forrest. She is a Native American Medicine Woman who took a spiritual vow “to mend the rainbow hoop of the people.”

This yoga is considered a healing practise by addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs including elements such as core work, meditation, breathwork and key poses held longer.

Cody Friedman teaches weekly Forrest Yoga on our platform. Not in a forrest.

On Yogalive :-)

Finding balance is an act of juggling.

Our bodies and minds are not constant and neither is balance. It is how we navigate the journey which determines our balance.

We have a mix of classes with two goals in mind, one for each mood.

To reduce stress and ground down OR to energise and raise your energy levels.

Have a great week discovering our different classes for each mood on our platform!

Namaste Yogaliver's!

Yoga squat, also termed as "malasana" in Sanskrit

This pose is great for:
- opens the hips, especially when sitting in a chair all day
- aids digestions
- increases flexibility / mobility in the lower body / healthy range of motion
- can relieve lower back aches
- stretches the ankles & groin

Some helpful tips

To protect your knees, keep them together as you bend your legs into the pose, then spread your knees.
Your heels may come up when you squat. Therefore, place a folded blanket under your heels for support. Otherwise, the pose will place more pressure forward rather than down.
Or sit on a block

Happy garland pose :-)

At some point, we were all yoga newcomers , not knowing where and how to get started. This is why we have added a weekly live class called "My first class - Yoga introduction".

This class is a slow class that gives you time to understand and learn how to move and be comfortable in the most basic yoga postures.

Expect to be guided through a slower-paced class, receiving personal attention and adjustments to help you understand what the pose should look and feel like. Keep in mind, every body is different, therefore every pose looks different for each person. :)

After this class, you will be relaxed, balanced, and connected to a deeper breath.

You or a friend has been hesitant about trying yoga? This is a great opportunity!

The class will be every Sunday at 10AM GMT+2, starting tomorrow. All our classes are free during the 15 days trial so start your yoga practice today 📣 !

Tomorrow's class: https://yogalive.com/session/60dc97f259bda3001153acb2

We want to thank our awesome community of students and teachers for making our first charity event a memorable one! Every little helps towards helping build a healthier world.

Thank you. With ❤️ and gratitude

Power yoga is an active and athletic, Western style of yoga, created simultaneously by American yoga teachers such as Baron baptise in the 1980s.
Power yoga has become popular in the Western world for its challenge-centric approach to yoga.
This style does not follow a set series of poses and may vary greatly depending on the teacher. The commonality between various Power yoga classes is their emphasis on building strength and endurance.
Power yoga generally appeals to most Western yoga practitioners who seek an active, yang style of yoga.
Baron Baptiste later created a spin on Power yoga and branded it as Baptiste Power Vinyasa.

Tight hips? Sit less, move more! Opening our hips means stretching all the muscles around the hips. Most yoga classes will usually always tackle the hips at some point, called "hip openers.”

There are over 20 muscles that cross the hip.
The adductors, the abductors, the hip flexors are in front, & deep lateral rotators are in back.
A variety of muscles are also attached into the femur starting from the pelvis, the lumbar spine & the sacrum.
Sitting down for long periods during the day will shorten these muscles resulting in a stiff back , tight hips resulting in emotional blockages and overall emotional and physical stagnation.

Book any of our classes and discover different ways to stretch these muscles and open your hips.

Restorative yoga is a type of yoga known for its relaxing, calming and healing effect. It has its roots in the yoga of B.K.S. Iyengar, who developed a yoga that allows students to practice without any strain or pain.

This is ideal for those recovering from injuries or illnesses.
Restorative yoga has a balancing effect on our nervous system. Instead of being in fight or flight mode, in these classes we can train to be in our rest and digest mode.

Joelle teaches weekly restorative classes on our platform. Please book on our new and updated platform
