Haven for the Heart
In this audio class, Joo leads you through a Qi Gong sequence to create a haven for the heart. This gentle class is perfect for those days when things get a little too much to handle, or you feel vulnerable or shaken up. Use this slow flow to retreat to a safe space and reconnect with yourself to rediscover what it important and true for you; learn to trust your innate wisdom.

Restore yourself: Drop into stillness
A great yoga class to end a frantic day. This class winds you down and prepares you to drop into deep peaceful sleep. With hatha and restorative poses, this class is a great way into a settled and calming evening. Class starts standing with gentle neck rolls, then gentle hip stretches and finally lying down in long holds so you can drop into a meditative state. Although class calls for two bolsters, rolled blankets or cushions will work just as well.

Total Body Recharge
A very peaceful yoga class to have you fully relaxed and restored. With just a few restorative poses and all held for several minutes, this class is a wonderfully healthy way to recharge after a busy day. With minimal instruction during the long holds, this class is conducive to deeply recharging and letting go. Rather than getting ready for bed, this class will have you restored and recharged afterwards. After deep relaxation, we finish standing tall, refreshed and recharged. Although class calls for two bolsters, one bolster and rolled blankets or cushions will work just as well.

Standing Tall
This gentle yoga class, with some qi-gong movements is a perfect antidote for those of us who spend too much time sitting at desks each day. Also great if you're feeling like you could do with an emotional recharge, perhaps at the end of a long day, or when life is challenging. With standing poses and gentle strengthening poses, this class uses the power of intention to clear out a tough day and bring in the new. You will need two blocks and a strap.
