A 17-minute yoga core practice influenced by hatha and Pilates, using the breath to connect with your deep abdominal muscles.
Day 6 of Adriene's Prana series reimagines your relationship with your core, drawing on both hatha yoga and Pilates. It continues to build the connection between breath and the deep abdominal muscles so you can control them effectively and efficiently, and it keeps the message that progress comes little by little. The class runs about 17 minutes.
Equipment setup
Who Is It For?
Yoga practitioners and beginners who want a gentle, breath-led way to work the core on the mat.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal if you want a high-intensity ab burn or fast cardio; this is a slow, breath-led practice rather than a fitness blitz.
Key Benefits
Builds awareness of the deep abdominal muscles and teaches you to control them with your breath, for a stronger, steadier core.
Things to Keep in Mind
Keep your breath smooth and your lower back comfortable, ease off any move that strains your neck or back, and rest when you need to.
