Gentle Somatic Yoga

Explore gentle movement while noticing sensation, breath, and changes in your body. Your own experience guides how far and how long you move, rather than aiming for a particular pose shape.

Pace & Effort
Slow, with time to explore, notice, and pause.
Experience
All levels; curiosity and attention matter more than pose experience.
Options
Make movements smaller, change your positioning, or pause whenever that feels more comfortable.

Gentle Flow & Deep Stretch

Mindful movement and conscious breathing lead into sustained stretches and supportive holds. Gentle pacing does not require a deep stretch: you choose a range that feels comfortable.

Pace & Effort
A calmer flow with time to settle into stretches; longer holds can still require effort.
Experience
All levels, including new and experienced practitioners seeking a gentler practice.
Options
Reduce the depth or length of a stretch, use props where helpful, and pause or rest when needed.
