Vinyasa fundamentals, breathwork
Time table
Monday
7:00 AM — 7:45 AM

Nina’s essentials class is exactly what it says: the useful parts of a vinyasa practice, done well, with nothing added for effect. It is a strong class, but the strength comes from steady repetition rather than novelty, and there is no shouting.
Long standing sequences with few resets.
Sustained core and shoulder work.
One balance section, held longer than is comfortable.

The class warms from the feet upward over the first fifteen minutes, then holds a working temperature for twenty, then cools. Because the build is gradual, most people find they can work harder than they expect without feeling wrecked afterwards.
This is a 7am class, so it starts quietly and gets going within a few minutes. Regulars turn up half awake and leave properly alert; several go straight to work from here.
Built honestly
Heat comes from the sequencing, not from the thermostat.
Clean lines
Nina is exacting about shape without being precious about it.
A quiet start
Early enough that the building is still calm.
Eat lightly beforehand or not at all, and bring a towel. Forty-five minutes is not long, and this class uses all of it.

Warm without a heated room, which I did not think was possible. Nina builds it so gradually that you only notice how hard you have worked when you stop.
