In a final gesture of gratitude, Lara invites you to flow though a soothing moon salutation practice, chandra namaskar.
Less commonly known than its solar equivalent, this simple sequence of postures will teach you to move with steadiness and grounding, to stay close to the earth and to fully receive the restorative benefits of this breath-focused vinyasa.
This episode is only short, and it's perfect to practise in the evenings.
Music
The Legend of the River Red Gum Richard Charlton (10:45)
Performers: Steve Allen (guitar), Riley Lee (shakuhachi)

Have your props, blankets and bolsters ready - you’re in for a treat! You’re about to plunge into a full body bliss bath, a deep soak in sensation and melody. Lara will guide you through a series of yin postures - held for up to five minutes - designed to flood the body with sensation, myriad textures, flavours, visions and temperatures.
And once again, Benny Holloway’s ethereal voice and guitar melodies, improvised and spontaneous, accompany Lara’s lyrical instruction and respond to the flow and energetic feel of the sequence – all recorded live in the studio, just for us.

This standing sequence homes in on the pelvis, the gateway between upper and lower halves of the body and the holder of SO much tension.
You’ll move through a series of warrior poses, limbering up connective tissue and strengthening supporting muscle groups, so the rivers of communication can flow more freely between the upper and lower halves of your intuitive body.
Many yoga practitioners find hip work to not just be physically challenging but also emotionally undamming. Please take care with any sensitive knees and souls.
To accompany, a selection of Philip Glass etudes. His compositions are full of pathos, and the piano-playing, beautifully precise. Let it anchor you in the present, and carry you through the challenging moments.
Music
Etude No. 5, Philip Glass (9:07)
Etude No. 4, Philip Glass (8:21)
Etude No. 2, Philip Glass (7:26)
Performer: Sally Whitwell

This strong sequence of balance poses is all about moving from your centre - uddiyana bandha - to find equilibrium even when things feel a bit upside down. Your mat is fertile ground to explore this balancing act, to find ease amongst the effort, and softness in your strength.
Maybe you can carry this feeling off the mat and into your daily life? Maybe your own exploration of balance in this class can echo the sweet balance you’ll hear in the music, between the resonant strum of the guitar strings, and the warm, penetrating breath of the shakuhachi.
Music composed and recorded especially for Classic Flow, performed on guitar by Steve Allen and shakuhachi by Riley Lee.

Spend 15 minutes just bathing, basking in the gift of breath. Try not to force it. Let go of the effort required for perfect technique … whatever that is … and just receive its life-giving elixir.
raven's play through you, a solo work for cello, accompanies us here. The cello’s string vibrations, the loops and the effects will fill the cavity of its ancient, wooden body with a deep, rich sound, just as our own bodies are rhythmically filled with breath. When you think about it, our own resonating torsos are proportionately similar to the curvaceous cavity of a cello, maybe that’s why its sound resonates so deeply with us?
Now close your eyes, and let the music play through you...

In this class, Lara invites you to imagine your body as a big, beautiful sponge to juice up with life-giving prana. While moving through an energetic flow, you’ll direct your breath and awareness to the parts of your body that feel stuck or tense, and then twist, squeeze and rinse it all from the inside out.
The accompanying music was composed and arranged especially for Classic Flow and features legendary yidaki (didgeridoo) player William Barton alongside Steve Allen on guitar. Together, they create a uniquely Australian soundscape with moments of tranquility – all designed to help you achieve a deeper, more focused practice.

Work up a sweat in this piquant little piece of core cultivation as we spice-up some classic postures. We’ll spend 20 minutes sparking up your centre by moving through a set of well-known poses, igniting that energetic power house right in the middle of your being.
The gorgeous music accompanying this episode is by Australian composer Kate Moore. It’s called Coral Speak and if you listen closely to Louise Devenish’s vibraphone playing, you’ll hear the sounds of the aliveness of the Great Barrier Reef breathing, dancing and tinkling and crackling with tiny air bubbles under idyllic waters. It’s a meditative piece, come back to it and let it be your cool plunge pool in this fiery practice.

With Lara as your guide, take a heart-expanding journey to peak pose Urdhva Dhanurasana. Flow through an energetic asana sequence designed to loosen and lubricate the connective tissue and muscles wrapped across the chest, shoulders, upper back, and then drizzle that sweet, heart sauce over newfound space in the upper body.
This pose can feel pretty intense, both physically AND emotionally. You might feel like your heart is about to burst right out of your chest. You may struggle to keep your breath long and deep - it's ok. This is a hard posture to get right! Take your time. Listen closely to Lara's instruction. Move with love, and find solace and inspiration in the music.
This 40-minute episode is set against a heart-swelling piece of music written and electronically produced especially for Classic Flow by Russell Torrance, it’s called Journey Home.
