Find Your Sweet Spot : Sugarcane Pose
Play with balance, open your quads and find your sweet spot in this challenging but accessible practice towards sugarcane pose, also known as ardha chandra chapasana. Inspired by lalita, the divine mother of the universe who wields a sugarcane bow and five rose tipped arrows, this vinyasa flow sequence teaches us to backbend with compassion and self-love.

This was my first class with Andrea and I LOVED it! She is very gentle and soft with her words, but also pushes you to reach for more. I really enjoyed the build up of this class to the final pose and was surprised with myself how gracefully I was able to enter the final pose without every having done it before. Thank you Andrea for a beautiful class!
A challenging class delivered by a skilful compassionate teacher with an excellent delivery style that is the perfect amount of stick and carrot ! Thank you so much, I loved it xx
This was my first ever class with Andrea and I am so happy I found it. Being on furlough from my job has given me new opportunities to explore DYWM and widen my practice. I love learning new poses, and Andrea's "Twisted Monkey" will be one I'll keep in my repertoire! This is an outstanding class for hips, quads and low back--areas I always need to pay attention to, especially if I'm sitting at my desk more these days. This class is marked intermediate II but I found it a little easy (save for "Lizard" and"Twisted MonKey", of course). Andrea's set-up for the "Sugarcane" Pose was so spot-on helpful--by the time I got that part of the session, I was feeling so confident--and Andrea's astute observation that, towards the end of a class,we might feel a little tired, was kind and reassuring. I'm definitely going to look for more classes with Andrea on this website.
Really enjoyed that.
