This 30-minute vinyasa flow is an invitation to practise ahimsa — non-violence — on and off the mat.
We explore how we treat ourselves in moments of challenge, frustration, or when something doesn’t quite work out. Just like in a balancing pose, the practice isn’t about touching the toes or “getting it right” — it’s about how we meet ourselves along the way.
The class begins in Sukhasana with gentle breath awareness, grounding into the body and setting an intention of kindness. We move through a slow, mindful flow starting in tabletop with long leg and long arm variations, flowing into hip circles, low lunge, half split, and downward dog.
A steady standing sequence follows — forward fold, low lunge, Warrior II, Reverse Warrior, Extended Side Angle, High Lunge, and a soft balance into modified Warrior III — offering moments to notice effort, wobble, and self-talk, and to respond with compassion.
The practice winds down with a spinal twist and shavasana, allowing the body and nervous system to soften and integrate.
This is a strong yet gentle flow, designed to build awareness, patience, and inner steadiness — reminding us that non-violence begins with how we speak to ourselves.
Perfect for days when you want to move, breathe, and reconnect with self-trust and kindness.
