YogaVibes.com (www.yogavibes.com) would like to thank Issac Pena and Jude English, co-owners of Sankalpah Yoga (www.sankalpah.com) in New York, NY for filming with us on June 14, 2009. Isaac led a Vinyasa Flow yoga class that focused on opening the hips and shoulders. You will be able to practice with Isaac and experience many other, full-length yoga classes online at YogaVibes.com in August, 2009.
Isaac's journey to yoga started with martial arts and zen meditation. After discovering and practicing Jivamukti Yoga, Isaac began to explore Iyengar and Ashtanga yoga, which have all influenced his teaching style. In his first
YogaVibes.com class, Isaac takes time to allow you to center and find your breath. After warming up with Sun Salutations and seated hip openers, Isaac continues to turn up the heat while progressing into pigeon variations on the ground and other asanas that allow for similar openings in standing poses as well as arm balances. Come experience this vibrant, vinyasa flow practice with Isaac Pena on
YogaVibes.com.
