Welcome to beautiful Barbados. We are here today with an invigorating yoga ladies class that will blend the best of a yoga and pilates practice. Offering a comprehensive workout that not only strengthens and tones your entire body, but also provides ample opportunities to release tension and stress from your muscles. In this session, we'll fuse strengthening matte Pilates exercises with the fluidity and mindfulness of a yoga practice to create a holistic and transformative experience that will not only provide a great workout, but an opportunity to connect deeper to your own heart, breath, and inner state of being. So, if you're ready to get started, grab your mat and let's begin. Oh, thank you so much for joining me here today for this yoga ladies practice. Let's begin by coming over with your feet to the front of your mat. We're going to start in a seated position, hands underneath your knees, feet grounded to the floor. Go ahead and take an inhale, open up through the chest, and look up. Then exhale, extending through the elbows, and rounding out the spine. Seated cat cow. As you inhale, look up.

Press the arms down. Begin to follow your arms with your body. Roll forward. and then roll back down. Good.

And this is what's going to get us ready to do our next Pilates exercise, which is your jack knife. There's going to be a couple different ways for us to do this. So, I'll walk you through it. Go ahead and just take one more deep breath in your shoulder stand. And then exhale. Bring those feet back. Back into that plow halosa. Release your hands so they're along the sides of your mat. And then slowly release your body. Lower the legs. Bring the legs up. And either you're just going to come up to about halfway.

Bring it down. Exhale. Bring the hips up. Do your best to try and get those toes up to the sky. But of course, don't sacrifice the form for it. Listen to your own body. As your legs drop, make sure you don't arch your lower back. So support your back with your hands under your glutes. And most importantly, don't go too low with the legs if you feel as if your core completely gives out and your back takes over. So maybe go about halfway. Once you're done, final movement, we're

Maybe reach the outsides of your feet. Feel free to add a gentle rock left and right if that feels really nice in your hips. You can also find stillness and just hold it there. whatever feels good. And then if you like to go deeper, go ahead and extend your legs and see if you can open them out into this reverse dragonfly using the pressure of your hands on your knees and hold it there. Of course, if this is way too intense for you today, you can always come back into your happy baby. So listen to your body and then when you're ready to come out, bend your knees, bring the soles of your feet together, come into reclined butterfly or sabbatanasana, palms open, arms rested by your side. Let's just close off our wonderful practice today with a couple of deep breaths and a nice quick relaxation to close off this practice. Allow your body to let go and release into the mat. Allow your knees to open. Feeling that gentle stretch through the groin, through the inner thighs. Just follow your breath. Exhaling. Letting go a little deeper each time.
