| I thought this was okay. I did the 75 minute class, and it was fairly challenging with a decent amount of balances, arm balances, and one inversion. For some reason I wasn t super into it, even though I went into the day s practice raring to go. But what really turned me off was the ending. As someone else said, there is just 10 minutes of ambient music at the end, which is annoying. My real gripe though was that it just sort of ended. There was no real closing, just pigeon, a little back roll, then savasana. She does suggest that if you want to do some inversions on your own, to go ahead. However, my feelings are that I am not paying to guide myself. I did end up going through the whole ashtanga closing on my own, just because it felt so unfinished. Not bad, but I do wish I had only purchased the single play as I doubt I will follow it again. |

| I shared this session with a yoga instructor on a retreat and she loved it, too! I am living abroad and these downloads transports me back into a class in the states. One suggestion: end each session with chimes or some signal to come out of sivasana - the next track started playing which was a bit of a jarring awakening. |

| I liked this flow, and the instruction was very good, clear, and at a good pace. The poses were difficult and diverse. The instructor has a great voice and was consistent. My gripe was that I paid an extra dollar for the 75 min class, but I felt like I just got 10 more minutes of ambient relaxation music at the end, when I would have liked at least 10 more minutes of work-time. |

| I thought the class was fairly challenging.The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I think this class needs to be longer. It felt like it was cut very short. I didn t like how all in a sudden you were in the meditation phase. I enjoy a long meditation, but the class needed more of the work-out phase. |

While technically a good class, it pales in comparison to some of the other flows (I did the 20 minute version). There s not enough flow here, as the instructor spends a LOT of time explaining each pose in excruciating depth. That would be great for a beginner class, but this is intermediate-advanced; I d rather have some flow than be told how to do each basic pose ad nauseum.
The instructor also seemed a bit stiff, more like a computerized recording than a real person.
The edit for the 20 min session is very jarring. In the end, judging by this session, I chose not to go on to any of the others. |

| Great poses, but feels like it should be a longer class. What a good reason to go buy the longer variations.. |

| This is a fun, creative, and challenging class. Natalie includes some creative posture variations that aren`t on the pose guide, and as a teacher, it was great to pick up some new class ideas as well as find a class with more advanced postures and high intensity. Intermediate students will enjoy this class, because the advanced postures are optional and offered in stages.
This is a very sweaty class, and she keeps up the energy all the way to the end, with vinyasas between the seated postures and even before switching sides, ashtanga-style. I would have liked a short backbending section, but can see myself using this one often. |
