Balasana, also known as Child’s Pose, can be one of the most comforting and grounding shapes in yoga — a gentle place of rest that invites us to slow down, soften, and reconnect with our breath. We often return to this pose in our hot and vinyasa classes whenever we need space, calm, or a moment to simply be with ourselves.

Fundamentals of the pose

Child’s Pose helps us gently lengthen the spine, release tension through the hips and lower back, and soften the shoulders and neck. As we fold forward, our body naturally relaxes into the support of the floor, creating a soothing sense of grounding. The gentle pressure of the torso against the legs can encourage deeper, steadier breathing, helping to calm the nervous system and quiet the mind. It’s a posture that reminds us we can rest without losing strength — that stillness is part of the practice too.

How to practise it

We begin on hands and knees, then sink our hips back toward our heels. We allow the knees to stay together or open wide — whichever feels more spacious for our body. As we fold forward, we rest the forehead on the mat, stretching the arms forward or letting them soften alongside the body. We breathe slowly and naturally, letting each inhale fill the back body and each exhale melt us deeper into the pose. If the forehead doesn’t reach the floor comfortably, we can rest it on a block or folded blanket for support.

Why it matters

Child’s Pose teaches us the value of pausing and listening. As we settle into the shape, we’re reminded that rest is not a retreat but a way to replenish our energy and stay connected to ourselves. It’s a pose that offers comfort, clarity, and a moment of quiet presence — something we can carry with us well beyond the mat.

Fear is a liar. And it's time to stop letting it run your life.

Transcending Fear is an advanced 9D breathwork experience engineered to reprogram your deepest fear-based patterns and transform them into raw power. This isn't about fighting fear. It's about confronting it, embracing it, and flipping the script-turning fear into fuel for unstoppable growth.

Layering somatic breathwork, hypnotherapy, and advanced NLP techniques, this journey works on every level of your system. You'll rewire neural pathways, dismantle limiting beliefs, and shift from survival mode into courageous action. Central themes of reprogramming, reframing, and radical empowerment drive this experience-burning away the old stories and forging a new narrative where you're fully in charge.

You'll come out the other side with heightened resilience, unshakable self-belief, and a renewed sense of purpose. This isn't just about overcoming fear. It's about owning it-and using it to launch yourself into a life without limits.

Transcending Fear isn't for the faint of heart. It's for those ready to breathe like warriors and rise like leaders

Flipped Dog is an expressive, heart-opening posture that invites us to explore freedom, playfulness, and trust. We move into this pose from Downward Facing Dog in many of our hot and vinyasa classes, using it as a way to open the front body, build strength, and reconnect with a sense of joy in our practice.

Fundamentals of the pose

Flipped Dog helps us strengthen the shoulders, arms, and upper back while opening the chest, hip flexors, and the whole front line of the body. As we expand into the shape, we feel a gentle lift through the heart and a grounding stability through the supporting hand and foot. The pose encourages us to breathe deeply, soften tension, and embrace a sense of spaciousness — both physically and emotionally. It’s a posture that reminds us to lean into trust and to stay open, even when we step into the unknown.

How to practise it

From Downward Facing Dog, we begin by bending one knee and opening the hip, allowing the lifted leg to gently rotate outward. As the body naturally turns, we step the lifted foot softly behind us, rotating onto the outer edge of the opposite foot. We press firmly into the supporting hand while lifting the hips and reaching the free arm overhead, letting it drape or arc in a way that feels expansive. Throughout the pose, we keep the breath smooth and steady, allowing the back body to support us as the front body opens. If it feels too strong, we can pause in Side Plank or Three-Legged Dog instead.

Why it matters

Flipped Dog encourages us to blend strength with surrender. As we press into the earth and lift through the heart, we discover the balance between grounding and openness. It’s a pose that invites play, curiosity, and a willingness to let the body move with freedom. And often, when we come back down to the mat, we feel more confident, more spacious, and more connected to ourselves.

Downward Facing Dog, or Adho Mukha Svanasana, is one of the most familiar poses in yoga — a steady, energising shape that helps us feel both grounded and uplifted. We meet this pose often in our hot and vinyasa classes because it builds strength, lengthens the entire body, and creates a calming rhythm in our breath.

Fundamentals of the pose

Downward Facing Dog helps us strengthen our arms, shoulders, and upper back while lengthening the hamstrings, calves, and spine. As we settle into the pose, we feel how it creates space through the sides of the body and ease through the back. Because the head is gently lowered below the heart, the pose also has a soothing, steadying effect on the nervous system, helping us focus, reset, and soften mental tension.

How to practise it

We begin on hands and knees, spreading the fingers wide and pressing evenly through the palms. As we lift the hips, we gently straighten the legs — or keep a soft bend if the hamstrings feel tight. We reach the sit bones up and back, letting the spine lengthen naturally as the heels move toward (but don’t need to reach) the floor. We allow the neck to soften, the shoulders to broaden, and the breath to stay smooth and steady. If the pose feels intense, we can bend the knees or take a moment in Child’s Pose before returning.

Why it matters

Downward Facing Dog reminds us that effort and ease can flow together. As we ground through the hands and feet while lifting through the hips, we experience a sense of balance, stability, and openness. It’s a pose that helps us reconnect with our breath, reset our energy, and find clarity — both on the mat and in the moments that follow.

Warrior II Pose - Virabhadrasana II - is named after Virabhadra, a legendary and heroic warrior created by the god Shiva. It is a pose symbolising stability and strength. A foundational pose in several of our hot classes and vinyasa flow classes that gives you endurance and releases tension by opening the hips and focusing attention on the breath and body.

Principles of the pose

Given it is named as a Warrior Pose, it should be unsurprising that this pose can require us to find strength. What may be surprising is that we often truly find the pose when we match this with openness and quiet at the same time. By holding a lunge we require our legs to build endurance, however to be low in that seat we must also release the hips to do so. Our arms are energetic, extending outwards to expand the chest; yet the shoulders should strive to stay subtle and maintain a sense of being unconstrained.

This exercise also teaches us to focus our gaze and breathe, allowing us to release what may distract us from the here and now.

How to practice it

We start in a broad stance, turning our front foot slightly forward and our back foot slightly turned in. As we lower into our front knee, we allow it to track softly over our front ankle while pressing solidly into the outer edge of our back foot. We reach our arms out in opposite directions, keeping our shoulders loose and our chest open. We also bring our gaze softly down onto our front fingertips while breathing steadily. 

Why it Matters

Warrior II teaches us how to feel strong without being hard, focused without forcing. As we ground down through the soles of the feet and open the chest, we tap into a spirit of courage and calm. This is a pose that reminds us that we can feel strong while simultaneously being at ease, a message that often serves us well after we leave the studio.

Revolved Triangle Pose, or Parivrtta Trikonasana, is a grounding standing posture that blends strength, stability, and mindful focus. This is a regular, fundamental pose in many of our hot and vinyasa yoga classes to build energy and improve balance, it offers a deep twist that benefits both the body and mind.

Fundamentals of the pose

This pose helps us strengthen our legs, wake up our core, and open through the hamstrings and outer hips. As we move into the gentle spinal twist, we release tension through the back while supporting healthy digestion and better posture. And because Revolved Triangle Pose invites us to slow our breathing and stay mindful, it becomes a beautiful way to improve concentration and clear mental clutter.

How to practise it

We begin in a comfortable wide stance, turning our back foot slightly in. We keep our legs strong as we hinge forward over the front leg, then rotate from the mid-spine, reaching the opposite arm toward the sky. As we move, we try to keep both sides of the waist long and our breath smooth. And if the floor feels far away, we simply place our lower hand on a block - this small support can make the pose not only much more accessible but can actually help us find better integrity in both balance and a deeper twist.

Why it matters

Revolved Triangle reminds us that strength doesn’t have to feel forceful. With each breath, you ground through your feet while gently opening through the torso, inviting a sense of clarity and spaciousness. It’s a pose that encourages patience, presence, and a soft kind of determination - qualities that often follow you off the mat as well.

-and land in a gentle integration phase that anchors this knowing deep into your system.
