Description: Yoga at Ritz is a fun class for all levels and ages with flowing poses and breathwork to build stability, flexibility, and mindfulness. These classes typically follow an arc of opening awareness, warm-up stretches, standing poses, balancing poses, inversions, grounding poses, and relaxation. There are two classes, one at 7:30 and one at 8:30. I adapt each class to the students who show up.
Theme: This class centers around the ‘fallen star’ or ‘fallen triangle’ pose as the peak pose.

Notes
No one showed up for the first class, but two women showed up for the second. They had done a lot of hiking the past few days, so we focused on lengthening and strengthening. I had them do Warrior II facing each other and say out like what they were feeling (like I am planning to do for the Performance Summit tomorrow). They had a lot of fun with that. During the full body scan one of them exclaimed that her shoulder didn’t hurt for the first time in days. Yea!
