Energizing, healing, calming ADANCED yoga practice
In the 1 min intro, she tells you this is for serious yoga practitioners who see yoga as more for showing off or just physical stretching but also a mind/body connection.
She is very calm & relaxing, helps you to center & relax no matter how jump, or irritated you are. She's one of the only yoga teachers who tell you the BENEFITS of each pose.
I had a small pounding headache before starting, tried Sara Ivanhoe & felt even more irritated & put in this though I know it's a bit advanced for me & felt calm for the first time in a day or so & my headache disappeared after doing the shoulder stand.
She starts with crescent pose 3x each side by standing & then sliding one foot backwards & then getting up all w/o hands, then warrior 1 (she helped me feel it more deeply w/deeper back bend), eagle, crow/2 hand snake pose w/dan tien breathing (does 2x, too advanced for me, need more upper body strength), cobra (she helped me do it more relaxed & deeper), knee to ear shoulder stand (1 leg shoulder stand the other leg looks like deep plow at same time), arching legs lift (locust w/legs high as possible & arms also raised above the waist, advanced), lying split legs (her legs were by her ears, does several times before holding), gate latch pose (simple side torso bend w/1 knee & 1 leg stretched to side), rocking horse/boat, wheel, knee to chest easy stretch, bowing pose (looks like deep child's pose almost upside down locust), several attempts & full headstand w/ & w/o a wall, reaching for the sky (simple upward arm stretch), dan tien breathing & also relaxation for 5 min & ends with light light/relaxing 4 min singing w/pretty video images.
