It’s election night in America, so it’s a good time to practice sitting with the discomfort of not knowing the future (a profound meditation, to be honest). Physically, our exploration moves towards gomukhasana, which is a rather uncomfortable pose.
(Int/Adv) Kula Flow is vinyasa (or flow) style yoga with an emphasis on creativity and alignment. Classes are inventive and thoughtful sequences of sun salutations, standing & seated postures, back bending, and inversions—guided by a steady breath to tone and calm the mind.
