This fitness-oriented format created by Green Lotus is designed for all levels of students. It begins with a grounding restorative pose. It moves on and combines intense bursts of floor core work, key core-oriented standing poses, and some shoulder friendly slow flow sequences separated by brief rest periods for 30-40 minutes. To seal in the core strength the last 15 - 20 minutes are spent in deep recovery in restorative poses. This training provides teachers the tools needed to safely offer modifications for poses and exercises as they learn to sequence around all sides of the core – abdominals, low-back muscles, intercostals, and obliques.

Merry Beth is director of Green Lotus' Yoga Alliance-certified school and a senior faculty member. She has been practicing yoga since 2000. She found the physical asana practice to be the perfect transition for her aging body that could no longer tolerate a classical ballet practice. She taught ballet for more than 15 years, then she began teaching Body Flow, Pilates, and yoga in 2002. Merry Beth also has experienced the more subtle benefits of yoga; it has given her the strength and balance to navigate a full-time career in corporate America and to raise her children into adulthood. Now she devotes her work time to being a Green Lotus partner and teacher.
