Vinyasa Flow 60
What is Vinyasa Flow Yoga?
Vinyasa Flow is a dynamic style of yoga where postures seamlessly transition from one to the next, synchronized with breath. Each inhale and exhale serves as an anchor, connecting movement and breath. The non-stop flow creates a meditative flow state.
At LA Cycle + Yoga, our Vinyasa Flow classes focus on alignment and connectedness between body and mind. The pace can range from slow and steady to more vigorous, cardio-boosting flows. But no matter the speed, expect smooth transitions between graceful postures.

Dynamic Flow 60
What is Dynamic Flow Yoga?
At LA Cycle + Yoga, we love introducing new students to the energetic workout of Dynamic Flow Yoga. This athletic, invigorating style of Vinyasa yoga provides more of a workout than traditional Flow classes.
In a Dynamic Flow class with LA Cycle + Yoga, you can expect faster-paced, flowing Vinyasa postures linked with breath to build heat and intensity. There are fewer rests between poses, with more dynamic movements like hopping/jumping to transition between postures. The vigorous, continuous sequence raises your heart rate and keeps energy up.
Our teachers provide options to take postures up a notch and add intensity. But with individual modifications available, you control your own level while enjoying the workout. Expect to strengthen your core and muscle groups, realign your posture, and increase flexibility.
A typical Dynamic Flow class includes:
- Flowing Vinyasa postures with fewer rests between poses
- Faster transitions between poses to increase intensity
- More athletic, dynamic movements like hopping/jumping between poses
- Arm balances, core work, and standing postures to build strength
- Shorter but focused holding of poses compared to other Vinyasa styles
- Planks, chaturangas, pushups to build upper body strength
- Cool down stretches and relaxation at the end
Benefits of Dynamic Flow Yoga include:
- Increased stamina and core/muscle strengthening
- A light cardio workout
- Expanded yoga practice
- Improved flexibility
- Realigned, better posture
- An energizing, focused mindset after class
- A metabolism boost and potential weight loss aid
