Couples yoga is an immensely beneficial activity for your body and relationship. However, couples yoga routines are far less accessible than individual yoga sequences.

To help couples begin their yoga practice together, we partnered with a professional to create a yoga video that focuses on flow and stretching exercises for couples.

So, let us introduce you to the Couples Yoga Flow Routine, your next at-home, online partner yoga session!

Couples Yoga Flow Routine

To bring you this couples yoga workout we partnered with a highly talented, certified yoga instructor who is also my sister, Anna.

She has been a yogi since 2013, trains yogis at an ashram in India, and lead a professional sports team in online yoga during COVID-19. On top of that, she is a professional gymnastics choreographer.

Alex and I always love taking her classes because they consistently challenge our balance, flexibility, strength, and lungs, all in the same workout. As an ex-collegiate athlete, Anna appreciates yoga as a tool to increase performance and reduce injury risk.

This couples yoga routine is for beginners, and it will challenge your whole body. So, while holistically improving your yoga practice and spending quality time with your significant other, you’ll also break a sweat.

Expect to have fun with your partner. There will be high-fives, kisses, and lots of eye contact. We’ll share what else you can expect from the Couples Yoga Flow Routine in the rest of this post.

What to expect in this couples yoga class

Alex and I were inspired to create this couples yoga video because couples worldwide are self-isolating due to the coronavirus pandemic. And, if there was ever a time to de-stress with yoga, that time is now.

Many are looking to incorporate more couples yoga into their day because our Google search traffic has doubled for articles like our ‘23 Couples Yoga Poses,’ and our Couples Yoga Challenge sign up page since the start of the pandemic.

We hope that you enjoy our online couples yoga class. We certainly did. For the first time in weeks, Alex and I felt grounded and relaxed. It didn’t fix everything but we felt more like ourselves again. So, here is what you can expect.

1. Couples Yoga At Home

So, firstly, this Couples Yoga Flow Routine is the perfect at-home workout. All you need is an internet connection (seems like you’re good there), significant other, 24-minutes, and your couples yoga mats.

2. Partner Yoga Flow Sequence

Second, the word “flow” in regards to partner yoga is unique. Too often couples yoga consists only of you and your partner stretching in a seated pose.

While flexibility is important and you can still get the benefits of partner yoga while sitting on your butt, there is a better way to get all of this and more.

This Couples Yoga Flow Routine will help you develop a well-rounded yoga practice with your partner, as you advance your practice from beginner to intermediate to advanced.

3. Includes Professional Instruction

This couples yoga flow is created and led by Anna Gleason, a certified yoga instructor. The not-so-pro yogis in the video are Ryan and Alex (that’s us).

To follow this partner yoga sequence, put the video on full screen, turn up the volume, and enjoy being guided through an online couples yoga class.

While it’s great to get ideas on fun and photo-worthy couples yoga poses on the internet and Pinterest, sometimes we need more than just ideas. In this partner yoga video, you have full guidance and instruction.

Thanks for leading us through this fun and effective Couples Yoga Flow Routine, Anna! Follow Anna’s journey and her virtual workouts on Instagram, @annatgleason.

4. For Beginner To Intermediate Yogi Couples

While we have created numerous couples yoga resources on our website, we are complete amateurs. We love that yoga is always a real challenge for us.

Since we know that nearly every couple has a fitness imbalance, something we discuss in our guide to working out as a couple, we wanted to keep this yoga sequence easy, accessible, and realistic.

If you, your partner, or both of you are complete beginners, this couples yoga workout is a perfect way to kickstart your yoga practice.

If you’re intermediate and have been practicing yoga for years (like us), you’ll still feel the benefits of this flow sequence and be challenged. I mean, does touching your toes ever get easy?

If you love this couples yoga flow, let us know in the comments and please share on social media. Let us know how this helps and what you want to see. We can create more routines to help you advance in the future.

For us, this was the hardest move.

We Present: The Couples Yoga Flow Routine

Alright, that’s enough talk, it’s time to give the Couples Yoga Flow Routine a go.

Schedule in 24 minutes of yoga with your partner three days a week following this routine. Have a discussion with your partner after each workout and discuss areas that you felt improved.

You’ll be surprised how quickly your balance, flexibility, and strength will improve (those chatarangas are tough!)

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback regarding the routine, please post them in the comments section at the bottom of this article or on YouTube.

Need more at-home couples yoga classes?

When we filmed the Couple’s Yoga Flow Routine less than a year ago, we didn’t really how it would be received. 

Now that couples have spent over 1,000 hours viewing our one partner yoga video, we knew this was exactly what couples were looking for. And it doesn’t exist anywhere else.

So, we partnered with Anna again to create 5 new innovative and challenging partner yoga routines.

They are hands-down the most effective way to strengthen your mind, body and relationship, together.

We hope to see you in our Couples Yoga Studio!

If you want a personalized couples yoga experience, we highly recommend reaching out to Anna to schedule a live video session. She creates a customized routine tailored to your needs and provides expert instruction on proper form.
