For the first class in this 5-class series, David helps you loosen your body and connect to sensation using pranayama, meditation and asana. He helps you give attention to your whole body while encouraging you to practice mindfully.
Thank you so much for your work. It´s a very nice and meaningful service to others. I love your classes, you transmit me peace. I think you are a wonderful instructor. Thank you again and again. Namaste from Argentina.
wonderful flow David and the breathing exercises really pushed me to remain focussed. I'm sure all the extra oxygen will help every system. A lovely calming class and just what a nearly 70 year old body with arthritis needs. Thank you!
Thank you for this beautiful class. I have found a new happy place in this class. The easy sun salutation and warrior 1 and 2 were easy to follow and I will rewatch until I get it right.
Thank you for the feedback, everyone. I'm so happy that you enjoyed the class and that you're finding it to be beneficial. And yes, my limbs are so long! :-)
You teach so beautifully and with purpose. Ive been doing yoga for many years and at 74 still enjoy it. However, finding it a bit more challenging as arthritis in parts of the body have weakened areas that used to be stronger. So I compensate with more softer approach but still challenging movements using stretching, movement, strengthening poses thru an online program which has proven beneficial but not yoga…during covid I was still doing yoga but it became more painful. But I will be using your yoga beginner classes to more or less start over…I enjoyed this one very much!
Thank you David for this awesome class! I am suffering from lumbar stenosis and spondyloslisthesis which makes me do limited yoga poses but I am so glad to follow your routines in a modified way. I hope you can hold class for spinal stenosis management. Namaste!
So exciting to do a new class with you, David! I love that you have incorporated pranayama with the class! As I practice pranayama more, I am realizing how powerful it is, so thank you for that. I always love your mindfulness. Thanks for a great class. I look forward to the other classes in this series! (Love the set! And David, your limbs are sooooooo long!!!!!)
I always love David's classes, so grounding, calming - for some reason I manage to stay in the present and this is such a gift! Thank you and cheers to all yogis around the world ;)
Thanks so much David, this "beginners" class didn't feel over explained but rather soulful and connected, it was if you guiding me through my pratice, not just "teaching" me how to do yoga. I love how you spent time paying attention to breathing throughout the practice,
Many thanks for recording this session! The livestream didn’t work for me so it was nice to be able to still do the class later (and during the livestream I did another DYWM class and still was able to experience some connection, knowing others in the DYWM community were practicing at the same time).
First, thank you for recording the livestream class. I look forward to ‘participating’ later this evening. Second, I was excited to see David leading this series as he is always a calming presence. Thank you!
Thank you for this class. In this world where everything happens at high speed, my body and nervous system are grateful for the reminder to slow down, observe, and enjoy. Namaste

Great breathing exercises in this practice. It really brings the student back to the basics of yoga breathing.
Great class! Where do I find class #2 in this series?

This class was good medicine after a hectic day. My mind was busy. Counting my breath and reminders to feel sensations was very helpful. Thank you

Thank you so much for this practice. I find David so clear, grounding, and peaceful.
Thank you ! Wonderful cues to embody an "anchored" feeling! Love your voice David!
Thank you so much. Always love David’s class!
Sadly the video crashed after 10 mins and wouldn't reload. Will try again!
Thank you for recording this! The livestream kept telling me I had been refused access to it, so I gave up after ten tries. It's nice to do it today!

Gentle with the breath. Gentle with the movements. Thank you, David for a easeful class.
You manage to make classes simple but powerful. This was expertly paced too. Thank you.
