Prana Flow Yoga

Prana Flow Yoga: The Rhythmic Wave of Breath

Prana Flow Yoga is a soulful, creative, and transformative style of Vinyasa yoga created by Shiva Rea. It is an evolutionary and energetic approach that emphasizes the power of the breath to guide the body in a rhythmic, wave-like motion.

What to Expect in a Class

• Wave-Like Sequencing (Vinyasa Krama): Sequences are built in "waves," where a small part is repeated and then added to, building to a peak flow.
• Music and Rhythm: Music is integral, with playlists curated to match the energy of the sequence.
• Embodiment and Free Movement: Students are often encouraged to explore spontaneous, intuitive movements.
• Energetic Alignment: Alignment cues are often based on the flow of energy in the body.
• Connection to Nature: Themes are often tied to the elements and natural rhythms.

Key Poses

• The practice uses all Vinyasa poses but links them in unique, circular, and wave-like patterns.
• Dancing Warrior sequences.
• Spinal waves in poses like Cat-Cow and Downward-Facing Dog.
• Poses that embody the elements, like flowing from a low lunge (earth) to a heart opener (air).
