Soft Breath, Fierce Heart | Meditative Mat Flow
In this breath-led, meditative movement class, we begin by softening into sensation—inviting the breath to aerate whatever is present in the body, heart, and mind. Each pose is explored not as a shape to achieve, but as a feeling to inhabit, from the inside out.
As the breath expands, we make space. As the movement deepens, we listen closely. The flow gradually builds toward Warrior III—a shape that invites balance not only in the body, but in the self: a warrior who is both steady and tender, fierce and open-hearted.
Woven throughout is the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke, offering a contemplative rhythm:
“Let this darkness be a bell tower / and you the bell. As you ring, / what batters you becomes your strength.”
Come as you are. Let the breath move through you. Let your strength be shaped by softness.
