Summer is the Pitta season (composed of the Fire and Water elements), which means it’s time to get outside, grow food, play, relax and enjoy the outdoors, recharging your internal batteries with solar energy. One of the classic Ayurvedic sutras says, “Like increases like.” As you witness the fire and water elements increasing in the natural world during June through August, pay attention to the ways they increase in your own body and mind as well. This summer seasonal vinyasa class emphasizes playful sequences to reduce Pitta’s intense personality, cooling and restorative forward bends help you to take shelter from the heat, and seated postures to improve overall circulation and blood flow.

I loved this class as did my body and senses. I have done it twice this week and if you don't mind I will share some of this with my students. Happy days from Australia

I though it need to have a little bit of a warm up for the joints and muscles before starting into the strech.

Beautiful way to wake up on a warm, summer morning. Perhaps the child's pose flow is a bit fast, as the sequence is unfamiliar, however most of the session is really nicely paced. Thank you.

I liked this practice - fairly short but lots stretching. I modified quite a few poses as I'm not that flexible. I will definitely do do this again.

A nice low intensity practice for intermediates and beyond, however might be unsuitable for the inexperienced without props and modifications ....... Peace

Able to follow the first part but then it was too difficult for me. Just getting back into yoga & overweight stomach prevents some things. Time takes time, right? Thank you (will come back for this again).
