Focus

This class offers a soothing blend of hip-opening and restorative poses designed to release tension and promote deep relaxation. By gently opening the hips, you’ll encourage a natural softening in the abdominal region, which in turn supports smoother diaphragm movement and more easeful breathing. The sequence includes accessible variations of Supta Baddha Konasana, Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana, and Supta Padangusthasana, progressing toward diaphragm-releasing adaptations of Viparita Dandasana. The practice culminates in restful postures such as Viparita Karani, Setu Bandha Sarvangasana, and Savasana, allowing you to observe and refine your breath in a state of deep stillness. This class is ideal for calming the nervous system, restoring energy levels, and enhancing overall well-being.
