Overview

In this lesson, we present practice videos tailored for menstruation and the menstrual cycle.

Objective

Become familiar with practice modifications and approaches that honor the body's needs during menstruation.

What You'll Get

You'll get video demonstrations of menstrual-appropriate practices that respect traditional guidelines while staying grounded in what actually serves the body. These practices address fatigue, cramping, and the need for both rest and movement at different cycle phases. If you're practicing, you'll see options beyond just "skip inversions"—real sequences that feel good when you're bleeding. If you're teaching, you'll have concrete examples to share with students who want to maintain practice without pushing through discomfort or ignoring what their body needs.
