Shannon Paige

This all levels flow is aimed at empowering conscious attention to the body's symmetrical and asymmetrical orientation through the lunge-warrior one family. Several of the techniques that help build sound, sustainable postures ALSO inspire ease activation in the brain. This practice aims us at opening hips, hamstrings, and progressing in a meaningful and connected way TOWARDS full splits.

As many of us already know, yoga can help us accomplish many great and beautiful things, but unfortunately one thing it can't do is cure you from depression or anxiety. However, what it can do is help you boldly take a look at the patterns of depression and anxiety that you carry in your body, and aim your practice to most effectively help alleviate some of the symptoms.

As you can probably tell, this class is deep, informative, full of meaning, yet still super fun! It is an all levels class offering modifications throughout so you can take your practice to where you need and want, and offers an opportunity to aim yourself toward something interesting and worthwhile as you learn to find ease amongst dis-ease.

Shannon s teaching style addresses, for me, why I m on the mat. Its to take what I discover on the mat into the rest of my life, with a stronger, more balanced body and mind to carry me through.

I wondered if this might help my daughter who suffers from depression and after reading the contrasting reviews I was curious so gave it a go. Not sure if I liked it or not. Physically I feel great afterwards - some new moves there which I haven t encountered over 20 years of yoga so that was fun. The incessant talking, a lot of which didn t make sense to me wasn t so helpful. I got lost in a couple of places which is unusual for me. Would I do it again? Yes, physically it s a great class. If you were new to yoga I d recommend doing some other classes first.

I did not like this class. I agree with Sarah - the class was too chatty and the cues were not the greatest. I had high hopes for this class to open me up, but I ve had more success with other classes not geared towards anxiety (some of the other classes on yogadownload have left me sobbing on my mat, but feeling great afterwards). I just didn t get out of this what everyone else does. If you like theory and chatting, you may like this class, but it wasn t for me.

Very soothing flow with some interesting additions to traditional poses. Great for a day you want something with a slower pace.

I really enjoyed this class and the instruction. It is the right amount of challenge and letting go. I feel extremely open in the hips after it, which is a very important thing in overcoming past pain.

I m glad other people loved this one. But I thought I d share a somewhat different perspective. I struggled through this. The yoga teacher talked very fast the whole time, and some of her instructions didn t make a lot of sense to me (even though I ve been practicing yoga for years). My body feels great now, but I had to stop the video several times to take breaks and gather myself mentally to continue on.

This class was amazing. I ve had it in my wishlist for a long time but avoided it because I was afraid it would be hokey. But I ve struggled with anxiety for my entire life and today when I woke up anxious, I decided to try this class. It wasn t hokey, it was freeing and intimate. Shannon even made me laugh two or three times. My hips are so open and my heart is so calm. I highly recommend this class, especially to those who may be afraid; take the leap.

I loved how creative this class was. I liked the flow and turning to the back of the mat rather than doing everything from the front. I was expecting something more restorative BUT was very pleased with this practice.

I decided to take up Yoga again after many years of non-
practice. What a wonderful class to start yoga practice.
I liked Shannon s voice, the clear instructions, her humor and the emphasis on practice not perfection.

Sometimes a class comes along with the right elements, the right speed, and beautifully woven together. This is that class. I was able to accept and move past many toxic emotions by fully releasing during this practice. Thank you!

6 stars should be a choice here. Shannon has made another inspired and healing practice. This strong, empowering and compassionate class just carried me through a tough spot and gently released me to the other side of what was holding me, through the just enough challenge. I feel free-er, muscles worked and stronger and a smile, too!! So glad I bought this class. Thank you Shannon!!

This class was so great that I not only did the class while traveling on business, but I had a long flight and actually watched it while flying. The thoughts and sequences from Shannon, with her deliberate, confident gift of walking with you through this hour, is powerful, energizing, and calming even in more of the difficult moves. I am great-filled for her, especially, as a Christian practitioner, there was not any specific orientation of "beliefs" from the history of yoga s origins. I guess I mention this so that anybody can practice this class with Shannon and feel stronger, motivated to continue to look straight into the "what -ifs"...cuz the "what-if s are coming". Thanks Shannon. You awesome.
