I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe. What started as my own personal sadhana to ease stress and anxiety quickly unraveled into my greatest passion, an exciting career and a whole new way of life!
My aim is to create accessible, easy to follow yoga classes that you can do in the comfort of your own home.
I hope you find value in my offerings and thank you so much for stopping by.
Namaste,

Hello and good morning! Thanks for joining me for another 10 minute yoga practice to stretch and energize as we prepare for the day ahead.

We'll go through poses like butterfly, seated pigeon pose, sphinx and reverse table top.
This 10 minute stretch is a great way to start your day with mindfulness and positivity. Enjoy and REMEMBER, a little bit of yoga every day is much better than long sessions done every now and then. I hope you'll practice again with me tomorrow :)

Let's strengthen and stretch with this complete 30 minute intermediate yoga class using 2 blocks.
Hi everyone, thanks for joining me. I decided to bring my blocks out today and use them to help us get a bit creative on the mat and explore traditional poses in a different way. This is a fun dynamic yoga class suitable for intermediate students who want to switch things up a bit and make use of their yoga props.
Grab two blocks and meet me on the mat with an open heart and open mind! This class will help you gain strength physically and mentally while also giving you lots of great stretching breaks.
Lately I've been focusing a lot on the concept of choosing curiosity over judgement and expectation. When things get tough or when you step out of your comfort zone, can you be curious about the experience rather than judgmental about it? Regardless of the end result! Now THAT'S a spiritual practice! Enjoy xx

Good morning everyone, welcome to my channel. I'll be guiding you through a 30 minute gentle morning yoga class wonderful for beginners. This is a great sequence to do when you first wake up to get a boost of energy, to stretch the muscles in your body and to set the tone for the day ahead.
You don't need any props for this class and we'll begin with some reclined and seated yoga poses before moving in to some standing poses. If you're new to yoga, remember that the most important thing is to stay focused on your breath. Don't worry if you don't get all the poses correctly or if you need to take a break. Be patient with yourself, do what you can and remember to relax.

A 30 min intermediate vinyasa yoga class to improve your flexibility and relax fully.
Hi everyone, thanks for joining me on the mat today! I thought I'd take you through my own personal flexibility yoga practice. This is the style of yoga and the types of poses I tend to do the most at home. This is a 30 minute slow flow vinyasa yoga class that will open up your hips and hamstrings and help you tune in to your body and relax. This is an intermediate yoga class and I'm not using any props but if you have blocks, keep them close as they can make some poses more comfortable.
The key is to breathe deeply and pay attention to your internal dialogue as you move in and out of these yoga poses. Some are more challenging than others but they all require our attention and they all have something to teach us about ourselves. I hope you enjoy this yummy deep stretch relaxing slow flow for flexibility!

Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe. What started as my own personal sadhana to ease stress and anxiety quickly unraveled into my greatest passion, an exciting career and a whole new way of life!
My aim is to create accessible, easy to follow yoga classes that you can do in the comfort of your own home.
I hope you find value in my offerings and thank you so much for stopping by.
Namaste,

Start your day with this gentle full body yoga class, it only takes 10 minutes
Good morning, thanks for tuning in! I'm going to take you through this simple but very effective 10 minute morning yoga class. This is great for all experience levels and no props are required. The intention behind this class is "calm connection". I want you to tune in to the relationship you have with your mind and body through your breath. Most of this class will be done standing.
Practicing yoga in the morning is a wonderful way to set your intention for the day ahead. Focus on the flow and rhythm of your breath as you move through these poses and ask yourself what your intention for the day is.

Honor the new moon and set your intention with this dreamy and stretchy yin yoga class.
Celebrate the new moon by setting your intention for the coming weeks. The new moon is a time of rest and introspection which allows us to ask important questions like:
"what do I need?"
"what is most important to me right now?"
"what change do I need to make?"
To honor this time of deep inquiry I'll be guiding you through a gentle full body yin yoga practice. Have two blocks close by for this class or substitute with some pillows or cushions. We'll be staying in the poses for around 3 minutes on each side. I recommend keeping a journal close by so you can write down your thoughts and insights at the end of our class.

What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose

Take a break from wrist weight bearing poses with this full body flow for strength, stretch and balance.
Hi everyone, thanks for joining me in this new 25 minute full body intermediate vinyasa flow yoga class. This sequence doesn't include any weight bearing poses for your hands and wrists so there are no planks, no table top poses and no downward dogs. We'll begin standing up with some half sun salutations before moving into some warrior poses and finally some seated and reclined stretches.
This is great for balance, strength, flexibility and mindfulness. No props are required and it's best suited for intermediate level students. Beginners can certainly give it a try and simply leave out or modify poses. Enjoy!

Good morning everyone, welcome to my channel! I'm going to take you through an energizing 15 minute morning yoga stretch to help wake you up and set your intention for the day. This vinyasa practice incorporates some yummy hip stretches, some standing balancing poses and some twists to help you feel good and begin your day with energy.

A 45 min yin yoga practice to work on the inner leg and adductors. This is a deep stretch class.
Hi everyone, thanks for joining me in this new 45 minute yin yoga class to improve flexibility through the inner thighs. This targets the groin, inner leg and adductors which is linked with the kidney meridian. This is a great class to do if you're also working on middle splits.
We can hold a lot of tension in this part of our bodies and especially since I've started horseback riding I've noticed how stiff the inner thighs can get. I'm using a small bolster for this practice but you can easily substitute it with some blocks or pillows. This is an intermediate yin yoga class.
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Use as many props as needed in Yin Yoga! Blocks, bolsters and straps are all great ways to support your body to make sure you are respecting your edge and not going too far.

Wake up and stretch with this beginner-friendly morning yoga class themed around the crown chakra.
Good morning everyone! Thanks for joining me in this final class in the 10 minute morning chakra series. Today we're working on balancing the flow of energy in the crown chakra through gentle inversions and standing poses. This is an all levels practice with no props required.
The crown sahasrara chakra is associated with colors of white and deep violet. It relates to themes of connection, faith, spiritual truth and knowledge. It is your connection to something greater.
Balancing our chakras is about allowing for a healthy flow of energy which means we need a strong container as well as spaciousness. Not overactive, not underactive.

A few weeks ago I released a class for people who sit all day (https://youtu.be/A0i_ywpnwYQ) so this week I'm taking you through a yoga class for people who stand on their feet all day! This is a lovely stretchy yoga practice with no standing poses. We will only be going through seated and reclined yoga stretches to give your feet and legs a break.
This is suitable for all experience levels and props are optional. You can use one block and you can also position your mat near a wall for our final pose (legs up the wall).
If you have inflammation in your legs or struggle with swollen ankles and overall soreness, I think you will love this yoga class.

Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe. What started as my own personal sadhana to ease stress and anxiety quickly unraveled into my greatest passion, an exciting career and a whole new way of life!
My aim is to create accessible, easy to follow yoga classes that you can do in the comfort of your own home.
I hope you find value in my offerings and thank you so much for stopping by.

This is a vinyasa yoga class that will focus on your entire body while paying special attention to your neck and shoulders, working on the throat vishuddha chakra.
No props are required and it's great for all experience levels.
The throat chakra is associated with the color blue and relates to clear communication. This is your ability to balance speaking with listening and the power of your voice.
Balancing our chakras is about allowing for a healthy flow of energy which means we need a strong container as well as spaciousness. Not overactive, not underactive.

Enjoy this all level's yin yoga practice for a deep full body stretch, no props needed.
Hey friends, welcome to my backyard! I'm going to take you through an hour long yin yoga practice for flexibility and stress relief. This is a really relaxing full body stretch that can be practiced at any time of the day. It's suitable for all levels but you might want to have some props close by to help make some poses more accessible. If you don't own any blocks you can always use some blankets or pillows from around the house.
We'll be holding each pose for 3-4 minutes, remember not to go too deep into each pose. Try to relax into the stretch and let go.
There are 3 principles to yin yoga and it's crucial to keep these in mind!
1 - Find your edge: this means, don't push yourself! When you feel a bit of sensation, hold right here. Your body will naturally relax and open up the longer we're in it.
2 - Resolve to be still: Relax your muscles and let gravity do most of the work for you. Try not to stiffen up and contract yourself. If your muscles are tense it might be an indication that you've gone too far into a stretch.
3 - Hold the pose: Once you're fully relaxed, we're going to stay in the pose for 3-4 minutes. Please come out of it earlier if you need to! Don't push yourself.

An afternoon yoga flow for anyone who spends a lot of time sitting down! Hips & low back relief.
Hi everyone, thanks for joining me today. This 25 minute yoga class is great to do either on your lunch break, in the afternoon or at the end of your workday to get relief from sitting. It will target your hips, lower back and shoulders to counteract the tension we often get from either being in an office chair or driving for long periods of time.
This is a practice suitable for all experience levels and no props are needed. This was my first time filming outside in my backyard this season so I hope you enjoy the sound of the birds as much as I do :)
Thanks for watching,

Join me for a 30 min beginner to intermediate yoga practice with sun salutations for strength!
Welcome everyone! I've got a fun and challenging flow for you today. Let me guide you through a 30 minute yoga class focusing on sun salutations, surya namaskar.
Sun salutations are a wonderful way to build strength and flexibility while also building the mind-body connection. I'll be taking you through half sun salutations, sun salutations A, Sun salutations B and hatha surya namaskar. We will also have a few balancing standing poses in between each flow and we will end with some hip openers. Sun salutations are an excellent way to begin the day so this would make a great morning yoga practice.
The poses in this practice are all suitable for beginners but because of the pacing, length and speed of this class it might be best suited for intermediate level students. It's a fun class that you can do over and over again and improve over time.
No props needed. Enjoy!

An hour long full body yoga practice for deep connection, introspection and flexibility.
Hi everyone, please join me in a brand new hour long intermediate vinyasa slow flow practice. This is a well rounded yoga class to create space inside and out. You'll want to have two blocks for this class.

Energetically we're trying to create space within ourselves and tap into our intuition. This is a super stretchy flow, think of it like a full body and mind tune up.

Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe. What started as my own personal sadhana to ease stress and anxiety quickly unraveled into my greatest passion, an exciting career and a whole new way of life!
My aim is to create accessible, easy to follow yoga classes that you can do in the comfort of your own home.

Ready for a big stretch? Hold each yin yoga pose for about 8 minutes for serious flexibility.
Ok guys, fair warning, this one is intense! Here's a 75 minute yin yoga class for deep flexibility with extra long holds. Normally when I teach yin yoga I hold each pose for about 3-4 minutes. In this practice, I'm holding them for about 7-8 minutes, which makes this class best suited for intermediate to advanced students.
The poses themselves aren't all that challenging but since we're in them for so long it might not be suitable for everyone. Don't underestimate the mental challenge with this one! I'm not using any props and we're going to do poses like half butterfly, swan, sphinx, seal and cat pulling it's tail.
There are 3 principles to yin yoga and it's crucial to keep these in mind!
1 - Find your edge: this means, don't push yourself! When you feel a bit of sensation, hold right here. Your body will naturally relax and open up the longer we're in it.
2 - Resolve to be still: Relax your muscles and let gravity do most of the work for you. Try not to stiffen up and contract yourself. If your muscles are tense it might be an indication that you've gone too far into a stretch.
3 - Hold the pose: Once you're fully relaxed, we're going to stay in the pose for 7-8 minutes. Please come out of it earlier if you need to! Don't push yourself.

Let's challenge ourselves with this 30 minute advanced yoga class with minimal cues.
Welcome to this advanced minimal cues yoga practice! This is a 30 minute flow that will challenge you with balancing poses and inversions without any extra chatter from me.
This is a full body practice which will work on peak poses such as bird of paradise, headstand and crow pose. It is best suited for intermediate to advanced students who are looking for a strong flow with some great stretches for flexibility as well.
Minimal cues means I'm only going to call out the name of the pose and tell you how many breaths to hold it for. This is why you need to have a strong enough practice to be able to understand alignment cues without having them voiced.
Try to have fun with this and don't worry so much about the outcome! It's a journey. Enjoy it :)

Hey everyone, I've got a fun and challenging yoga class for you! This is almost an hour long and will work your core, hips and shoulders. This is best suited for intermediate to advanced students as we will be preparing ourselves for flying splits (eka pada kundinyasana 2) and headstand (sirsasana). These poses are completely optional so please don't let this scare you from trying the class! You will absolutely be able to leave them out if needed and modify.
Even though this class requires strength we'll also have lots of deep stretches added. No props are required, just a positive attitude ;)
Enjoy!

Begin your day with some positive affirmations to set the tone and get grounded.
Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel! I'm going to take you through a 5 minute morning meditation with positive affirmations to help you set the tone for the day ahead. You can do this seated or lying down, whatever feels the best to you.
As I you listen to the affirmations, simply repeat them internally to yourself a few times. Notice what they bring up in you. It's normal for some affirmations to feel good while others may trigger some discomfort or resistance. This is a great opportunity for introspection and I highly recommend journaling after this meditation to uncover the source of your feelings towards the affirmations.
AFFIRMATIONS:
I allow myself to slow down and enjoy life
I treat my body with love and respect
I am willing to change and grow
I trust the timing of my life
I am at peace with the flow of life
I look in the mirror and love what I see
I trust my insight and intuition
I inspire others by being myself
I am blessed, grateful and abundant
I allow al parts of me to be expressed
I find balance between giving and receiving
I value my own beliefs and opinions
I shift from competition to collaboration
I step into my power with confidence and grace
My self-esteem is growing day by day

Increase strength and flexibility in this hour long beginner vinyasa yoga class. No props needed!
Hey everyone, welcome back! I'm so happy to be bringing you an hour long beginner yoga class. Even though it was made with beginners in mind, it's a lovely class for all levels.
This 60 minute beginner yoga class will focus on strength, flexibility and balance. It's a well-rounded practice for all experience levels. We move in and out of the poses fairly slowly to build body awareness and improve balance. I'm not using any props for this practice but you may want to have a block close by.
Most of the classes I've been doing lately have been intermediate to advanced so I thought it'd be nice to do a beginner friendly flow! This class will help you improve flexibility and build the foundational strength necessary to progress into your practice.

Stretch everything out and improve flexibility with this relaxing slow yoga flow!
Hey yogis, I've got a new 45 minute slow flow yoga class for you that's meant to help you stretch your entire body and increase your flexibility. This is a very relaxing yoga class with no strength required. Great to do towards the end of the day when you want to unwind. We'll go deep into your hips, hamstrings, spine and shoulders with a mix of seated and standing poses.
The stretches can be a bit intense so I would say this is an intermediate yoga class but beginners can certainly follow along and leave some poses out. No props required.

A full body 30 minute yoga class featuring my dog Luna :) Great to do in the morning.
Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel! Today I'm taking you through a sequence I had improvised and shared on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/CGSrBMgp-VH/). Lots of you requested it so here it is! This is a fantastic 30 minute yoga class to do in the morning or later on in the afternoon. It's an intermediate yoga flow with no props needed.
The first part of the class is done reclined with some stretches for you hips and hamstrings before moving into our standing poses. There are a few challenging poses thrown in like moving from eagle to warrior 3, a half bow/half locust pose, a deep warrior 2 stretch and square pose with a twist. This is a great yoga class to do for lower body flexibility.
Since I moved to my new studio so many of you have been asking for my pets to be featured more. It's pretty easy for me to include the cats but lately you've been asking about my dog Luna, so I thought I'd give it a try.
Truth be told - I don't know if she will be invited back! There was a lot I had to cut out of the video. In any case, I hope you enjoyed the class and appreciated her cuteness!

A slow moving vinyasa class to connect to your breath and feel at ease in your body.
Hey everyone, this week I'm offering you a 40 minute vinyasa flow practice that moves slowly to help you cultivate mindfulness. This will also help you connect to your intuition and the flow of your breath. I love slow flows because they can be physically challenging while also being calming and grounding. If you've been experiencing stress, I think this yoga class will help.
We'll begin with a grounding meditation before doing some seated poses to warm up our spine. You can then expect some hip openers and there will be an option for a headstand. I'm not using any props in this class but you can certainly have them if needed. This is ideal for intermediate students but beginners can leave out poses to make it suitable to them. Remember to go slow and really feel the connection with your breath.

Enjoy this full body vinyasa flow class with very little talking to allow for introspection!
By popular request, here's a brand new minimal cues yoga flow! This class is great for intermediate to advanced students or yoga teachers who are already familiar with proper alignemnt in poses. I won't be talking during class other than naming the pose. We'll be in each posture for about 3-5 breaths unless specified otherwise!
This is a great 45 minute full body vinyasa flow class to stretch, strengthen and work on balance. You'll even have the opportunity to come into forearm stand for some inversion work! No props are required.
The beauty of minimal cues practices is that they allow you to really tune in to your own practice and stay in the present moment. This is a great yoga class for introspection. I hope you enjoy it!

A full body yoga stretch for all levels! Great to do in the evening or before bed.
Hey yogis, before you head off to bed take 15 minutes to stretch on your mat. This gentle yoga class will help you release tension from your muscles and decompress after a long day. I'll take you through my favorite breathing exercise to facilitate sleep which is the 4-4-4 breath. I'm using two blocks at the beginning of class but please note that it is optional! You can still do this class without props.
Stretching before bed is a wonderful way to shift your mindset to rest and relaxation after a busy day. This is your opportunity to tune everything out and focus on yourself. These are simple yoga poses and a gentle sequence accessible to all levels, including beginners!
Have a great night yogis :)

Get stronger in handstands by practicing the L-shape at the wall!
Hey yogis, a lot of you have been asking me for tutorials on handstands. While I can do them, they are still very challenging for me and it took me years to build up enough strength to get into them! I'm still not at all an expert. There are lots of different ways of building upper body strength and practicing handstands. In this 5 minute yoga tutorial, I'll show you how to do an L-Shape at the wall to get into handstand.
If you want to get good at this inversion, practicing the L-shape every day is an amazing way to get you there. There are lots of other exercises you can do that will help you master your handstands. If you'd like to know what those are, leave me a comment below and I'd be happy to film it for you.
Enjoy this 5 minute drill and get ready to work on your shoulders, core and arms.

This Vinyasa Flow yoga practice will dramatically improve your flexibility in your hips & hamstrings.
Hey yogis, this week I'm bringing you a 45 minute intermediate vinyasa flow yoga class meant to help you increase your overall flexibility. There will be a special focus on stretching our hips, hamstrings, glutes and quads. This is a dynamic and fun vinyasa flow yoga class and no props are required.

(Apologies for the video being a bit blurry, I didn't realize my lens was a bit out of focus while filming!)

A 60 min Vin to Yin detox class that focuses on twists, backbends and hip openers.
Back by popular demand! I've got an hour long Vin to Yin yoga practice to work your entire body. The first 30 minutes of this class will be a dynamic Vinyasa flow that will incorporate twists and backbends. The last 30 minute or the class will be yin yoga to get into some hip openers and gentle twists.
This is a wonderful practice for a full body detox. A great mix of strength and stretch at an intermediate level. I would recommend having two blocks for this class but it's not necessary.

A 45 minute yin yoga class to increase flexibility and melt away stress.
Hey yogis, in this 45 min yin yoga class I'll take you through some pretty deep stretches! Blocks aren't necessary for this class but I do recommend having two or grabbing some cushions from around the house. This is a full body yin yoga class to improve your flexibility. We'll get into some more challenging yin yoga asanas making this an intermediate level class. Enjoy!
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Find your edge means respecting your body's limits and not pushing too far and risking injury. Pull back a little bit and as you hold the pose you will be able to go deeper into it without pushing too far or hurting yourself.
Being still means that once you are in the pose it is important to completely relax your muscles so the benefits can get into the connective tissues and joints. Try not to fidget or move or distract yourself, this is a meditative practice. Breathe deeply in and out through the nose.
Holding the pose means that in Yin Yoga a pose can be held for 1-10 minutes depending on the pose performed and on the comfort level of the student.
Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe.

A deep stretch yin yoga class for your hips and legs to increase flexibility.
Hey yogis, I'm so excited to be bringing you this hour long yin yoga class for hip flexibility! This is a deep stretch yin yoga practice that will focus on increasing mobility in your lower body. We'll be working on your low back pelvic, glutes, hips, thighs and hamstrings. Make sure you have two blocks for this practice as we work on internal and external hip rotation.
Yin yoga is a passive practice where we hold deep stretches for 3-5 minutes. We want to relax our muscles so the effect of the pose can go into our joints and connective tissues. I would say this is an intermediate yin yoga class as it is quite intense but it can always be done by beginner students as long as you modify or reduce the intensity of the stretches.
I hope you enjoy this deep hip opening yin yoga 60 minute class!

There's a little bit of strength added in there as well before we close with a seated hip opener.

No props necessary for this class but if you have a block at home you can always grab it to make some poses more accessible. This is a full body morning yoga stretch that will target all the aches and pains you may have accumulated during the night. Enjoy!
Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive
Through my Yoga with Kassandra YouTube channel, I’ve been able to introduce Yin Yoga to hundreds of thousands of people from across the globe. What started as my own personal sadhana to ease stress and anxiety quickly unraveled into my greatest passion, an exciting career and a whole new way of life!
My aim is to create accessible, easy to follow yoga classes that you can do in the comfort of your own home.
I hope you find value in my offerings and thank you so much for stopping by.

Chair yoga is a wonderful practice for every body, suitable for beginners and seniors.

Enjoy a 1 hour long yin yoga class for full body flexibility!
Hey yogis, here's an hour long yin yoga practice for full body flexibility! Stretch out your hips, shoulders, hamstrings and low back with this lovely sequence that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and comfortable in your own body. This is a great class to do regularly if you're trying to improve flexibility and mobility in your joints. You will need a block for this practice and a blanket is optional but nice to have.
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Find your edge means respecting your body's limits and not pushing too far and risking injury. Pull back a little bit and as you hold the pose you will be able to go deeper into it without pushing too far or hurting yourself.
Being still means that once you are in the pose it is important to completely relax your muscles so the benefits can get into the connective tissues and joints. Try not to fidget or move or distract yourself, this is a meditative practice. Breathe deeply in and out through the nose.
Holding the pose means that in Yin Yoga a pose can be held for 1-10 minutes depending on the pose performed and on the comfort level of the student.

Try my new 30 min yin yoga practice to increase your back flexibility
Hey yogis, this week I'm pleased to be bringing you a 30 min yin yoga class to help you increase flexibility in your spine. If you'd like to get into some deeper backbends, this is a great practice to do on a regular basis. We'll open up your shoulders and chest as well as increase flexibility along your spine from upper to lower back. We'll get into the pectorals and hip flexors a well. You'll need two blocks close by.
This is a pretty intense yin yoga practice that I would characterize as intermediate to advanced due to the nature of the poses. This isn't to say that beginners can't do this practice but please be mindful of not pushing yourself or going too far. This is not appropriate if you have slipped or herniated discs.

A great 15 min ab yoga ab workout to give you a boost of energy and strength!
Hey yogis, this week's yoga class is all about your core! This sequence can be done as a morning yoga class or anytime during the day when you need a little "pick me up". I always find that working on strengthening my core gives me energy and focus.
While this mainly focuses on abdominal strength, we'll also engage the upper and lower back, glutes and thighs to work the mid-section as a whole.

Here's a beginner yin yoga class for full body flexibility that doesn't require props.
Hey yogis, I'm happy to be expanding my yin yoga without props series with an hour long class this week. This is a great full body stretch you can do anytime, anywhere. You won't need any blocks, bolsters or straps!
We'll target your hips, hamstrings, chest and shoulders in this 60 minute practice. Yin Yoga is meant to be a passive practice where we focus on the fascia and deep connective tissues. Try to relax your muscles as you hold the poses for 2-5 minutes on each side. Remember not to push past your edge, less is always more!

Restore hormonal balance with this 30 minute yin yoga practice for the endocrine system
Hey yogis, this week I have a very special yin yoga practice for you! If you have hormonal issues, this 30 minute yin yoga practice might be just what you need.
While yoga is not a cure, it can help support the healthy functioning of your endocrine system. Hormonal imbalances such as adrenal fatigue or thyroid problems can be aggravated with stress. By practicing restorative styles of yoga like Yin Yoga we can soothe the nervous system and reduce stress. We will do poses that encourage blood flow to the adrenals, pancreas and thyroid. You'll need 2 blocks for this practice.

Salute the sun with this intermediate energizing 15 minute morning yoga flow!
Hey yogis, I've got another quick yoga class for you that's wonderful to do first thing in the morning or before a workout. Sun salutations are a wonderful practice to elevate your heart rate while strengthening and stretching your entire body.
We'll begin with a quick warmup and then move to some half sun salutations followed by a few rounds of Sun Salutation A and then Sun Salutation B. We'll wind down with a standing forward fold, malasana and a seated twist before closing with a short meditation.
Modify and take breaks if you need to! It can take a while to build strength in this type of movement but practicing it regularly will help you start your day on the right foot.
This is a fast paced practice ideal for intermediate students! Sun salutations are meant to be practiced in one breath per movement to elevate the heart rate. If you prefer slower flows, check out other videos on my channel :)

Get into lotus pose with my new 45 min vinyasa intermediate to advanced hip opening yoga class.
Hey yogis, this week's class is one that has been requested so many times over the years! I've put off making it simply because lotus pose isn't always safe for many people's knees. No matter how advanced in your practice you may be, some poses might simply not feel good and that's okay!
If you'd like to try this flow for yourself, please do so very mindfully. For some, lotus pose feels great and puts no strain on the knees. For others, it's painful and detrimental to their practice. Let's always make sure we do things because they FEEL GOOD rather than because they LOOK GOOD.
Okay, moving on from that disclaimer... This pose will focus on deep hip openers, especially external hip rotation to prepare you for lotus. We'll start with a stronger standing series before settling into some seated hip openers. I would say it is an intermediate to advanced practice. I hope you enjoy it!

Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way.

Here's a beginner yin yoga class for full body flexibility that doesn't require props.
Hey yogis, I got a great request recently to put together a yin yoga class that wouldn't utilize any props. As you most likely know, yin yoga tends to be quite prop intensive using blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets and many other items that you might not always have around.
If you're travelling or just low on props, this yin yoga class will take you through a 40 minute sequence you can do without equipment! Of course, I'm a big lover of props so always recommend having them close by, but this is a nice class to do in a pinch :)
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Find your edge means respecting your body's limits and not pushing too far and risking injury. Pull back a little bit and as you hold the pose you will be able to go deeper into it without pushing too far or hurting yourself.
Being still means that once you are in the pose it is important to completely relax your muscles so the benefits can get into the connective tissues and joints. Try not to fidget or move or distract yourself, this is a meditative practice. Breathe deeply in and out through the nose.
Holding the pose means that in Yin Yoga a pose can be held for 1-10 minutes depending on the pose performed and on the comfort level of the student.

1 hour yoga class that combines Vinyasa & Yin Yoga for strength and courage.
Hey yogis, this week I'm offering you an hour long yoga practice that combines Vinyasa Flow and Yin Yoga - my two favorites!
We'll start off with a strong flow sequence before winding down with some yin asanas to improve flexibility. The theme of this practice is cultivating inner and outer strength. Vin to Yin is the perfect class to exemplify this theme as the vinyasa portion will definitely help you tap into to your physical power while the yin yoga sequence will emphasize the inner strength required in letting go and allowing.

Improve your balance with this 30 min challenging minimal cues yoga flow!
Hey yogis, this is another minimal cues yoga class great for Yoga Teachers or intermediate to advanced students. This practice is done with very little instruction and a lot of silence to allow for an introspective practice.
Students should be able to know the alignment cues that go along with the poses in order to do this safely. In this 35 minute sequence we will put a lot of focus on standing poses that improve balance! You'll also have the opportunity to come into a headstand at the end of the practice.

A 35 min vinyasa flow class with binds to open up your shoulders, chest and upper back.
Hey yogis, this week's flow is all about binds! Binds are usually thought of as being restrictive and constricting and while that is true, I like to think of binds as freeing too! When one part of your body contracts, another expands. As you bind the shoulders, you're able to open up into the chest and upper back. This is the concept we'll be playing with in this 35 minute intermediate vinyasa flow with binds.
Make sure to have a strap and 2 blocks close by for this practice. Always take it slow with binds and don't push yourself. This is a really fun flow that will take you through different variations of Warrior 2, Triangle, Seated Twist and Bird of Paradise.

A strong 30 min arm balance yoga flow to get you into eka pada 2!
Hey yogis, today's class is all about making our way into one of my all-time favorite arm balances, Eka Pada Kundinyasana 2! (eka pada 2 for short, it's a mouthful!)
Not only does this pose require a strong upper body, you also need quite a bit of hamstring flexibility to be able to extend your legs.
This flow will warm you up in just the right way to give you your best shot at balancing on your hands. We'll do a lot of core work and then get into poses like pyramid, wide fold and Warrior 2 to open up your hips and hamstrings. I'm not using any props in this practice and this is best suited for intermediate to advanced yogis.

A 30 min yoga class with very little talking, great for yoga teachers or advanced students
Hi yogis, welcome to my channel! Today I''m offering you a quick 30 minute yoga practice with minimal verbal cues ideal for Yoga Teachers or advanced students. I won't be giving you any alignment tips in this class or breathing instructions, I'll only be naming the poses.
The class itself isn't necessarily that hard but since I'm not going in detail about breath and alignment, it's more suitable for experiences yogis or teachers. The sequence is intermediate level.
I love doing online yoga classes myself but as a teacher I don't always want to listen to the other teacher explain every single thing about a pose. Sometimes it's nice to just be guided in your practice and make room for silence to make it a meditative practice!

Stretch out your quads and thighs in this 40 min yin yoga class.
Hey yogis, I'm back with a brand new Yin Yoga class filmed in beautiful Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica! This class was a special request from one of my subscribers and focuses on opening up the quads, thighs and hips flexors.
There aren't very many yin yoga poses that focus on the quads, but there are four and those are the ones we'll be doing today. The poses include: laying quad stretch, twisted lizard/dragon, reclined hero and cat pulling it's tail.
The quadriceps are big muscles at the front of the thighs that can get quite tight, especially for athletes. This practice will target the entire front of the thigh, from the hip flexors all the way down to the top of the knee. This is a great yin yoga class to do if you have knee tension, although people with acute knee injuries should not practice this!
Make sure you have lots of props such as a blanket, two blocks and a strap.
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints. Although your muscles will also be stretched, that is not the focus of the practice. It is best to practice yin yoga while your muscles are cold and NOT warmed up, even if that sounds counter intuitive. The reason we do this is so that we can send the "stress" and the "Stretch" to the connective tissues. If the muscles are warm they will steal the focus away from the joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose

A 40 min fiery flow to work your core and find your inner power, great for intermediate yogis!
Are you ready to stoke the fire within? This 40 minute Vinyasa Flow class focuses on the element of fire to build internal heat and fuel you with drive, determination and passion.
The element of fire is associated with destruction, transformation, passion and energy. It is also closely related to our self-esteem, self-confidence and our digestion. When unbalanced and underactive, we are low energy, lethargic and have a hard time making decisions and reaching our goals. When unbalanced and overactive, we are quick to anger, frazzled and destructive.
This class is meant to help you find balance with the element of fire! This is a midline focused class so most poses will be focusing on the core through abdominal work or twists. We are also going to incorporate Breath of Fire and use Kali mudra (Sat Kriya pranayama) to make the practice whole and complete.
You will need one block in order to do this fiery practice! Look out for other elemental themed classes over the next few weeks :)

Get into some twists to energize your body with this 30 min yoga flow
Hey yogis, I've got a great class for you this week focusing on some of my favorite poses - twists! Twists are a wonderful way to alleviate discomfort in your spine. Whenever I get a knot in my back or pain in my lower back, a few gentle twists always make me feel brand new again. We'll also play with some fun balancing poses and try new variations of classic poses such as high lunge and downward dog. Twists also have a "detoxing" nature which although sounds a bit out there, all it means is that you are compressing and decompressing the internal organs to facilitate the process of elimination.
Twists are also a wonderful way to get a natural boost of energy! Instead of reaching for that 2nd cup of coffee, why not do a 30 minute slow flow twist class? This is an intermediate level class however we move through the poses fairly slowly so this would be a good class for beginner students trying to transition to intermediate level. Some of the poses are a bit harder such as standing pigeon with a twist and boat pose, feel free to skip those out!
Some of the poses we'll be playing with include laying spinal twist, revolved triangle, high lunge twist and many more!
Sorry if the footage is slightly blurry, it looks like the lens was not quite in focus! Hopefully you are still able to follow along :)

Indulge in a 90 min yin yoga class for full body flexibility and relaxation. Since I started my youtube channel I've gotten SO many requests from you guys to do some longer Yin Yoga classes! It's not that I don't like longer sessions, they just obviously demand much more time to film and edit. However, I've finally gotten around to creating a 90 minute Yin Yoga class for an OMazing mini retreat at home!
This full body stretch Yin Yoga practice will help you open up your hips, shoulders, low back, hamstrings and quads. It's head to toe yumminess! I'm using 2 blocks and a big bolster for this practice. If you don't own a bolster, don't worry about it! You can grab a big cushion or a few bed pillows or even just use your blocks.
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints. Although your muscles will also be stretched, that is not the focus of the practice. It is best to practice yin yoga while your muscles are cold and NOT warmed up, even if that sounds counter intuitive. The reason we do this is so that we can send the "stress" and the "Stretch" to the connective tissues. If the muscles are warm they will steal the focus away from the joints.
Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga.
I’m an Ottawa-based Yoga Instructor on a mission to help others feel great with yoga. I started practicing yoga in 2008 as a way to become more flexible and learn to manage stress and anxiety. Little did I know in a few short years I would have the privilege of becoming a teacher, passionately committed to sharing yoga with others who, like me, were sick of feeling less than vibrant.
Before I started practicing, I barely had any energy, I couldn’t quiet my mind for a single minute and always seemed to have aches and pains in my legs and lower back. Once I started practicing regularly, bit by bit I became stronger, calmer and braver. Yoga is now ingrained in my daily life in a fundamental way. It helps me meet any challenges I may face by teaching me to be present, focused and receptive

Hey friends, this week's Yin Yoga class is a 50 minute practice to help you achieve your side splits! (Or as some people call it, middle splits). If you have tightness in your inner groin and hamstrings this class will definitely do the trick.
If practiced regularly, you will notice a lot of improvement in your flexibility. I plan on doing this routine a few times a week myself as middle/side splits are a big weakness of mine and something I want to improve on!
You'll need 2 blocks and a blanket in order to do this practice. I was joined by my little kitty Kitkat :)

There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Use as many props as needed in Yin Yoga! Blocks, bolsters and straps are all great ways to support your body to make sure you are respecting your edge and not going too far.

A 40 min power vinyasa yoga class to strengthen and tone your body
Hey yogis, by popular request I've put together a 40 minute power vinyasa practice that will help you build strength to work your way into crow pose. This is a great intermediate level flow that will guide you through some sun salutations, standing twists, balancing poses, an arm balance and a gentle inversion at the end of the class.
This is a strong practice so take as many breaks as you need to and go at your own pace! This practice is meant to elevate your heart rate and engage your muscles for toning and definition while connecting with your breath to move mindfully.

Enjoy this 30 minute yoga class for beginners who want full body flexibility and strength.
Hi friends, this week I'm offering you a 30 minute practice perfect for beginners! Now just because a class is for beginners, doesn't mean it isn't challenging! We are going to work on building foundational strength, balance and flexibility.
We'll begin with a very short meditation to be grounded and then warming up the spine with some fluid motions. We'll then move to hands and knees and start to engage the abdominals which is key when it comes to improving balance.
Our flows will take you through a Warrior sequence where we focus on alignment and breath to do the poses safely and effectively. I'm not using any props for this practice but you may want to have a block somewhere close by.

A 45 min yin yoga class for your liver and gall bladder meridian lines.
Good morning everyone, I'm adding onto my Yin Yoga Meridian series by focusing on the Liver this time! To really benefit the liver we are working with two different meridian lines, the liver and the gall bladder meridian.
These poses will mostly focus on the hips (as do most Yin Yoga asanas) but they will also include some side body stretches to really target that organ. You will hopefully feel rejuvenated and energized after class! I won't be using any props during class but you may want to have 1 block close by just in case, some of the hip openers are pretty intense!
The meridians are energetic pathways from Chinese Medicine that help flow Qi (pronounced chee) through the body. This is a vital energy source that helps support organ health, longevity and overall vitality.
