A Deep Release for the Shoulders and Neck
This gentle, slow, hatha yoga class guides you into a series of poses that thoroughly stretch the muscles around the shoulders and neck. It moves gradually toward deeper stretches, allowing the body to warm up and prepare for a deeper release of the tighter muscles in your body. Your neck and shoulders will feel wonderful after you're done.

My husband and I are most definitely beginners and we found this class to be relaxing. Upon completion we felt loose and refreshed and will add this one to our favorites list.
David we have tried almost all of your beginning classes and they have added so much to our life! Thank you so much for what you do.
Hi David,
I’m pretty disappointed in today’s session. This is session 4 of the 30 day challenge. I question whether you have ever taught a beginner class, or if you took the the time to teach this particular class to beginners. In every beginner class I’ve been in, what makes it a “beginner” class is the existence of concessions and modifications for someone who may not be advanced or flexible enough to do the poses you describe. Aside from “allowing” us to sit cross legged if sitting on our heels was a problem, there was absolutely no consideration in this class for the experience of a beginner. “If you can’t do this, try it this way.” In fact, the only such consideration was for someone more advanced. “If you can stretch further, do this to increase the intensity.” I strongly feel that this is not an appropriate class for beginners and was made to feel extremely uncomfortable throughout the class, as I was limited to what I could do. I’d recommend either re-recording this as an actual beginner class (which may mean you’d actually have to teach a class of beginners to see where there might need to be modification) or take it down and list it accordingly.
I can't think of a better way to spend the time.....thank you for this...
Thank you, David, I love this class,, one of my favorites.
