FOCUSED (25 Minutes)
71 Episodes
CHALLENGE YOUR SKILLS: Advance your practice and give those party-trick poses a go with FOCUSED! In each unique episode, you’ll work through form, flexibility, and technique as you explore everything from arm balances, backbends, and inversions, to deep twists and folds. It’s a great way to take your yoga skills to the next level, one challenge at a time!
HOW TO USE: Rotate this class with other yoga formats in your fitness routine, add as a staple to your weekly regimen, or mix it in anytime you feel like trying something new. While you can certainly use this class alone, you’ll likely have the most success with your skills if you STACK it in after FLUID, GLIDE, CLIMB, or a 10-15 minute self-guided cardio warm-up (walk, run, bike, etc).
WHAT YOU NEED: Yoga Mat. On occasion, this class may also call for a yoga block, blanket, strap, or space against a wall.
Duration: 25 Minutes (approximately)
