New week, new theme, new flow, and new tunes. This week and next, it’s the Sacral Chakra, or Creation.
The Sacral Chakra is the chakra of creation, think about it, this area of our body is home to our reproductive organs. And so it’s the chakra of our sexuality and our passion. Through this energy center, we create our reality and can feel alive. We explore what this means to us, and how we feel if it’s blocked or if it’s flowing freely, and it always starts here in yoga!
Be sure to come check out class with me at the Yoganest Venice! (check my schedule page for details)! Now through January 23rd through February 1st, I’ll be teaching this Sacral Chakra. And you can hear my playlist for this class, all about the voice on my spotify page! As always, new theme, new flow, new tunes, every two weeks! 😉
See ya on the mat!

If you guys have followed me for a while, you’ve noticed l’ve never taken an offer to affiliate or endorse any product. It has to be completely in line with what I practice and what I believe, and something I use personally. I appreciate your trust, whether it’s what I say in one of my classes, or what I post on sm.
Thanks for that trust! BUT NOW… I am excited to collaborate with this amazing company, Green Drop Compression! An incredible line of compression sleeves and tape for injuries and muscle pain relief, designed to heal in a new way to increase mobility and recover faster, a way to be free from the limitations of muscle & joint discomfort and get back to an active life.
I’ve had so many injuries over many years, and the greatest pain beyond the injury, is just wanting to get back out there! The amazing part is, Green Drop is completely holistic and natural and heals leveraging recent advances in science and technology, offering an infusion of natural healing, high-performance compression, and cutting-edge technology. Elevate your well-being, push your limits (and if you’re in my class, you know we love to blow past our limitations), and experience the transformative synergy of GREEN DROP‘s commitment to your holistic health.
Go to my Products I Love Page to check out some of the products I personally use, get links to the GreenDrop site, and be sure to use discount code KBYoga for extra savings!
Movement & exercise is absolutely the most powerful tool we have for longevity, it might be the most potent “drug” we have for extending the quality and perhaps quantity of our years of life. My framework for exercise is built upon four pillars: stability (balance), strength, aerobic training, AND mindset! I can acheive much of this through my yoga practice. And I am going to show you how to add some key componenets to your practice to extend your longevity.
I never want anybody to think, “I’m too old to do yoga or I can’t do what she does.” I think as long as you’re breathing, breath is yoga, you have the foundation! In my regular “Power Vinyasa” class, we may challenge ourselves a bit aerobically. In this workshop, I’m going to break things down a bit more, showing how aspects of yoga help our stability and strength for longevity.
For me, longevity means training for brain health as well as physical, and adding the mental, social, and spiritual elements while physically moving has been scientifically proven to multiply the benefits of exercise alone. But in addition, some specific movements, show an increase in neuro activity while practicing yoga. Not to mention, the benefits of goal setting, managing emotional stress, and overcoming challenges! So let’s have some fun and do some yoga for Longevity!
It’s a new year, new yoga classes, new ideas, and new thoughts and themes in class. Starting this new year, I’m going to start with the Chakras. And where else do we start but the root!
I love visualizations, I always visualize little baby roots growing from me deep into the ground, burrowing deep into the earth from the soles of my feet, or my root chakra, or whatever is grounded at that moment. And somehow, I then feel so firm and steady. I have always believed in being so firm and steady, so grounded, so rooted, that I can weather anything. I want to be the mountain-strong boulder, in the middle of a storm, that can stand strong. The tornado may whip up the cows and the trees, chew them up and spit them out, but I will weather anything you throw at me, because I have my roots. I am creating those roots, the symbol of my foundation, my home, my safety, and it starts here in yoga!
Be sure to come check out class with me at the Yoganest Venice! (check my schedule page for details)! Now through January 9th through 18th, I’ll be teaching this Root Chakra. And you can hear my playlist for this class, all about the voice on my spotify page! As always, new theme, new flow, new tunes, every two weeks! 😉
See ya on the mat!

Grabbing the moments between the moments, to take a conscious breath. Each breath is a choice.
We are not the mud we walk through. We are the lotus tbat grew from it.

POV: the stretch that hits just right when you’ve been lifting a 6’1 young man around the house !
About 20 years ago my life was imploding, I was a single mom taking Charlie to every Dr who would let me in… Finally one said, “You need to go to yoga.” I think my response was somewhere around “WTF?’ Do I look like I have time for yoga?!” She said “No, you need to breathe!”
Many years later I still keep coming back to that advice & my favorite mantra, Om Mani Padme Om. In Buddhism it refers to the jewel in the lotus that rises from the mud. One may argue my reference, but in this case, the jewel is about spiritual awakening, but also clarity & compassion. The mud is our human experience, maybe our hardship or stress. None of us can escape the mud. We cannot change the mud. But without the mud would there be a lotus?! It rises above the mud with grace & beauty & doesn’t wear the mud it’s been through.
This week I am in some mud. I find myself living on adrenaline, tightening up, pacing, worrying. But in the moments in between, I remember to take a conscious breath, to feel my grounding, the lift up, one breath at a time, & rise above our circumstance, to grow with clarity & compassion.
I use this same thought on my mat. We know often yoga & life are parallel. When we are in q challenging pose or hold, or in the mud, what are our patterns, do we grip, tighten, shorten our breath, lose our focus? Can we make the conscious choice in the moments in between. Maybe it’s why I love transitions, it provides us the opportunity for that choice. When we live in a fight-or-flight pattern, this sounds impossible. But like in yoga, it takes practice and consistency. The practice is to notice & acknowledge the mud, not become it. Each breath is a choice. We rise not by force but by awareness. Close your eyes, feel the earth, slow the breath, imagine the stem rising with every breath, lifting, blossoming.
We are not the mud we walk through. We are the lotus tbat grew from it.
Let’s lotus up!
See ya on the mat! 💫
