Slow Burn dispels the myth that slower is easier. Expect powerful standing poses woven together with intentional transitions in this fully guided yoga experience. Whereas the pace of Vinyasa makes it physically demanding, Slow Burn offers a mental challenge as you work to stay present with your breath during the longer holds. Meet your edge, and then unwind through deep stretches, twists, and hip openers to round out this balanced practice.
