Focus

This energising class focuses on chest-opening standing poses to uplift your mood and invigorate your body. Through dynamic movements, you’ll explore foundational poses like Trikonasana, Virabhadrasana I and II, and Parsvakonasana, which naturally expand the chest and circulate energy, helping to banish dullness and lethargy. The sequence emphasises the repeated action of Urdhva Hastasana (raising the arms), synchronised with mindful breathing, to enhance the chest-opening effect and create a sense of energy flow. This integration of movement and breath promotes a refreshing, revitalising experience, leaving you feeling open, energised, and balanced.
