Mama Vinyasa TM is a style of flowing yoga devised and created by Claire Missingham in 2008.

Especially for pregnancy, this 20-min class is a flowing, graceful and grounding practice to enable you to feel gorgeous during your pregnancy. The session includes wide squats, cresent moon and horse stance, therefore, if you have any pelvic pain do not include these postures in this or any of your yoga practice for safety.

This class includes Mountain Goddess, which is a standing meditation on the strength and courage of all mamas out there!

This is a quiet, music free, 10-minute meditation practice that focuses inwards on not only the breath but also the pulsation of prana from the core of the earth to core of the body. As we move towards Autumn, taking time to focus inwards is wonderful for continuing to feel vibrant and alive even with the darker evenings!

Warmness in abundance

This is part of a series of creative namaskars that can be taken in a Vinyasa Flow Class, the aim is to move one movement, one breath, apart from Ustrasana which we hold for 5 breaths. Eventually, you begin to feel this is moving in a dance between breath and body.

Here are the fundamental foundations that are used in Claire Missingham’s original Namaskar Variations, in order to fulfill your potential within these sequences correctly, please ensure you have knowledge of the principles of alignment for the following:

  • TADASANA (SEE ALIGNMENT FROM IYENGAR)
  • EXCELLENT ALIGNMENT IN CHATURANGA, URDHVA MUKHA SVANASANA, ADHO MUKHA SVANASANA
  • DIAGONAL PLANK POSE UTILIZING CORE CORRECTLY AND EFFECTIVELY (INC. BANDHAS)
  • KNEE TO CHEST POSE IN DIAGONAL PLANK WITH CORE ACTIVATION FOR STEPPING LEG BETWEEN HANDS (i.e. don’t swing the leg from one leg dog, or bang the foot to the floor!)
  • PRINCIPLES OF HIGH LUNGE WITH PARALLEL BACK FOOT HEEL RAISED (4 points of energetic alignment, shoulders open, back heel raised straight knee, front knee over front heel)
  • PRINCIPLES OF LOW LUNGE (fingertips on floor in tripod position, chest open neck long, back leg straight parallel and extending back, hips low)
  • BREATH, MOVEMENT AND INTENTION AS ONE

These first two Namaskars are simple Surya & Lunar variations.

PS: Illegally sharing poscasts is not yogic!
