We’re closing out our Sun Salutation series with .ingy demonstrating the traditional version of the final steps of the sequence 🌞✨

One of the beautiful things about yoga is that it isn’t about what you’re wearing, what your practice looks like, or how flexible you are. It’s about showing up, moving your body, and connecting with your breath in a way that feels right for you.

At the 7th Annual Brick City Solstice, you’ll find different styles of movement, modifications, and opportunities to practice at your own pace. Whether you’re joining us for all 108 Sun Salutations, a portion of the practice, or simply to experience the incredible community energy, you belong here.

We hope these demonstrations have helped you feel more confident, inspired, and warmed up for the big day!

This final sequence reminds us that yoga isn’t about perfection—it’s about participation, presence, and finding the variation that works for you.

At the 7th Annual Brick City Solstice, you’ll experience movement for all levels, different styles of flow, and a community that welcomes everyone exactly as they are. Whether you’re an experienced practitioner, trying yoga for the first time, or simply want to soak in the energy, there’s a place for you.

Since Debby is Principal for the Day today, we figured she deserved an extra post ☀️

Here she is demonstrating the modified version of Steps 5 & 6 in our Sun Salutation series leading up to Brick City Solstice. We have a feeling you can probably guess which posture might be her favorite 👀🧘🏽‍♀️

We LOVE this attitude. 💛

They may not have won the game, but they still walked away appreciating the recovery yoga practice after the game.
One athlete told our teacher, ‘We lost, but my ankle and hips feel better!’ 😂✨

That mindset is everything. Win or lose, taking care of your body, calming your mind, and feeling better is always a win.

☀️ 30 Days to Brick City Solstice ☀️
We’re breaking down Sun Salutations one movement at a time — making them more accessible, approachable, and empowering for every body.

Today, our founder Debby Kaminsky guides modified versions of:

✨ Upward Salute (Urdhva Hastasana)
Tip: Keep a soft bend in the elbows and lift through the heart instead of reaching “high.” Let the breath create the length.

✨ Forward Fold (Uttanasana)
Modification: Bend the knees generously, rest hands on thighs or shins, or plant the fingers, and allow the upper body to soften instead of forcing the stretch.

The goal isn’t perfection. The goal is connection — breath, body, and presence.

🧘🏽‍♀️ Brick City Solstice part of is only 30 days away!

Back to back. Breath to breath.
This is the foundation.

A community that shows up for one another. A reminder that strength is not built alone, it’s built together.

Newark Yoga Movement was never just about yoga, it’s about people holding space, lifting each other up, and continuing to rise as one.

Performance starts with the breath.

Whether in the classroom or on the field, we support more than the body—we support focus, resilience, and control under pressure.

With our athletes, every stretch builds mobility.

Every breath sharpens concentration.
Every moment on the mat supports how athletes show up in the game—and in life.

This is where wellness meets performance.

✨This is how athletes step into peak performance.
