    Great instruction – difficult for me -my mind was there but my body was not. I am feeling awakened after .

    I will do what he recommended and eat soup before trying this again in order to conquer the lotus twist bind nightmare. Thanks

    I want to do this, but it’s way too intimidating. I scrolled through and it doesn’t seem like modifications are offered if you’re looking to build up to the poses.

    Ashtanga is a challenging practice so for many people seems way too far for humans possibilities but give it a shot, especially with Brent! He is a super pro teacher but knows perfectly that takes time to get there and I found this class super reassuring and I had a lot of fun too. Just do what you can and live the door open! Thank you Brent!

    Hello Brent,

    I am hopeful that you will soon do a full primary series video with the traditional breath count. I am an Ashtanga practitioner and would love to go back to my regular daily practice. It has been fun to do the Level Up program, but I miss Ashtanga.

    This is the first time on my life I spend 1/4 of the class sitting on the mat unable to do most of the poses and just watching. You have to have as much openness in the knees as in the hips, that it was impossible to me. The thing is that the other classes are not much of a problem for me; but this is. It must be something in the middle between the intro series and this class, I want to get there. Any suggestions?

    Exceptional class, guided by an exceptional teacher… I’ll be coming back to it regularly! I couldn’t do a lot of the poses and transitions, and what fun it is to be challenged in novel ways! I’m looking forward to building my capacity with this class. Thank you so much Brent <3
