Teacher: Joia
Student: Collibrina
If you feel you don’t have time to go to the gym or space at home to get your workout in, then this is the session for you! This workout is done all in a tiny New York City kitchen. We examine how to bring the mind-body awareness you craft at the Pilates studio back home into your daily life and routine. And we use common kitchen objects such as plates, utensils, bottles, and water jugs as as props to help us build strength, core stability, and flexibility. -NYV0075A

Naked Muay Thai 1: Fight Stance and the Eight Limbs!
Full-Video: https://vimeo.com/146505073
(Level: Basics)
Teacher: Cat Noble
Student: Gigi Jimiiji
Martial arts can be practiced for any reason from combat to meditation and they result in a sense of discipline, confidence and responsibility as well as a deeper understanding of human nature and the Self. Muay Thai (also called the Art of Eight Limbs or Thai boxing) is a stand-up striking art. It evolved from Muay Boran (ancient boxing), the hand-to-hand combat style practiced in Thailand prior to the influence of Western boxing. Since the introduction of equipment and boxing rings, Muay Thai has become a competitive combat sport and is popular with MMA (mixed martial arts) fighters as a striking strategy. This video will demonstrate a basic fight stance and one basic strike for each of the eight “limbs” or basic strikes – punches, elbows, knees and kicks. Practitioners are encouraged to train in an open space with plenty of room to move, and may use either a partner or a mirror for feedback on technique. -NYV0074A

Focus on Inversion 2: World Upside Down!
Full-Video: https://vimeo.com/144896035
Instructor: Trix E. Sleeves
(Intermediate/Advanced Level)
This practice is designed for more advanced yogis who are wanting to take their practice further, who may or may not have had difficulty with and/or fear of inversions in the past. The instructor’s approach is designed to make everyone feel comfortable at their own level, taking a more cautious route through turning everyone’s world upside down. Health benefits of inversions include better digestion, a more free flow of blood around the body, and “resetting” of the organs when needed. If a wall is being used, please practice with about 6-12 inches of space between the wall and your body.
PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT, IF YOU ARE NEW TO YOGA.
In this video you will learn: Bakasana (Crow Pose), Dolphin Pose, Pincha Mayurasana (Feathered Peacock Pose), and Salamba Śīrṣāsana I (Supported Headstand).
