What is 4-Beat?

A dynamic vinyasa flow born out of the Rocket Yoga system. The core of the practice is the alignment of breath to the slow regular beat of the music. Vinyasa is a Sanskrit word meaning “to place in a special way” and the focus on the steady 4-Beat rhythm is designed to develop and refine concentration so that it becomes single pointed and unwavering

A synchronous moving meditation. 

There are two main sequences based on the arc of the ashtanga inspired Rocket system, starting with Sun Salutations, followed by a sequence of standing postures, then to the floor (taking it down for seated or up for back arches) and into the closing/calming postures. Inversions and arm balances characteristically feature throughout but everything is optional and the consistency of the breath always takes priority over the difficulty of the pose. 

4-Beat is the archetypal mixed level practice, suitable for adventurous beginners and beyond- newbies or frequent flyers- we all sync together. 

4-Beat: Yoga should move you.
