Avartana
Originally from Indiana and currently based in Florida, Avartana is a certified yoga instructor, model, and artist. Her path to the mat began with martial arts, eventually leading her to India to earn her formal teaching certification. For Avartana, discovering naked yoga was a transformative experience that allowed her to overcome anxiety, shed childhood conditioning, and step into a profound sense of body freedom. Off the mat, she is an avid traveler, painter, and poet. Whether guiding a deeply restorative sequence or exploring the globe, her philosophy is simple: life is fleeting, so honor your authentic self and live to the fullest.

Welcome to Chair Bow Flow with Avartana! Whether you are seeking a deeply supported practice or a gentle way to open your body, this beginner to moderate sequence offers an accessible path to greater mobility. By utilizing a sturdy chair and a yoga strap, Avartana guides you through a mindful flow designed to safely stretch the spine, shoulders, and chest while maintaining total stability.
Practicing with the support of a chair allows you to find the perfect depth in your stretches, ensuring you can fully relax into every movement. This session focuses on creating space and releasing the physical compression that often builds up throughout the day. Take a deep breath, grab your props, and allow yourself to find a sense of ease and rhythm through this guided practice.
