Fire It Up!

Magic!

Good class. I would say because of the pranayama I would suggest doing this on an empty stomach and if you want an energizing class. It gave me a bit of anxiety to do the breath work so I couldn't do all of it. If you are prone to anxiety I would take it slow with the breathing exercises.

Beautiful session, with time to enjoy the different poses. I also appreciate that she counts backwards when doing breathing exercises--so that it's not a surprise how long I need to hold :)

My whole body feels awake after doing this, and there are still poses that I didn't manage to do yet!

Sweet and spicy! Breath of fire during chair, plank, and boat...so nice! Also some good stretches. Thank you, Crista.

thank you

Thanks for the great tips on crow pose. I’m geting there.

What a fun practice. Great new shoulder stretches too. This really adds to this 21 day shoulder/arm challenge.

Beautiful Christmas day practice - not too hard, not too soft, just a lovely mix of everything. Thank you, Crista, wising you and yours a happy day <3

I LOVEEEE Crista's classes and the careful, fun energy she brings to them. I did this one for the first time in a while and it made me wonder why I had ever stopped. It is very intense, but while pushing you, Crista has a way of reminding you not to go too deep into the stretches if you are not there yet - everyone is on their own journey.

Strong & relaxing class! Tks Christa for share!

what a wonderful class! wish it was longer....

This is my new favourite class, and bringing the breath of fire in as well is just perfect. I cannot do the knee to the back of the arm sliding up and down move *at all*. I suppose I'll get there with practice, and building strength, but if there are any tips that would help be get it, I'd be very grateful. Namaste and thanks as always dear Crista!

Love how you integrate the breathe into the practice. The breath is so healthy for the body. The class is challenging enough to keep me engaged throughout the practice. Thank you for your awesome video!

I love how Krista incorporates the breath of fire into some of the poses. Also, love the alternate nose breathing as a wonderful way to close the class. Enjoyed all of the shoulder stretches as well. Thank you for a well balanced and fun class!

I still struggle with Bakasana, but Crista made sense for my body type (I'm very flexible) as I always struggle to keep my knees in my armpits. Taking the inner knee to the outer arm works much better for my body because then I can squeeze and lean forward. It's a matter of time, and I'm trying very hard not to be frustrated with myself. I loved the core work and working to the edge of opening shoulders. Namaste from Ireland.

Such wonderful smiley eyes. A happy practice.

My favourite class at the moment, I love the pranayama throughout and for some reason crow pose felt loads easier - the headstand transition feels a little unnerving, not sure how to do that without crashing on my head! I've felt really balanced at the end of the class each time, fractal patterns around the ceiling light must be a good sign anyway. Perfect, thanks so much.

Just lovely!

Great class. Nice balance of flexibility and breathing. Headstand will also be in another lifetime.

I LOVED this class! I wasn't able to do everything this first time, but it gives me opportunity next time. I feel stronger and and more flexible AND more centered at the end of this practice. Thank you, thank you, thank you Christa!

I really enjoyed this class and your cheerful smile! It opens up my hip and chest! Thanks Christa!

Thank you, Crista - another fab class sprinkled with a bit of everything, plus your usual creativity :). I loved the Pranayama too. You are such a fantastic addition to DYWM and your classes always make me smile.

I like all the twisting, some unusual stretches. It did start a bit fast, but I was already warmed up.

What a beautiful class! I was ablee to follow along without even looking at my computer! In other online classes I've done in the past, I've had to look at what the teacher was doing in order to know what he/she was talking about. But, this was fluid and easy to follow; well done!!

I LOVED THE CLASS. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR SINCE I DID YOGA AND I was hesitant to do this class. But I am glad I could do it because of the beautiful instructions and perhaps The flow was so interesting. I learnt many new poses and how my body felt with them, Thank you so much

I loved the intensity and the way she mixed it up so that it was not difficult to keep up.

I'm not used to classes starting this fast without a warm up. Moving into pigeon four minutes in is kind of intense...

Perfectly what I needed. Strength and floor, continued flow. Also: first headstand!

I always love the fact that Crista give so many options for each asanas, mix so well all the postures and different king of breathing and in this one, there is also a short meditation at the end.
So, I guess, I could call it a perfect yoga class! ;)

Enjoyed this class. I can't quite do all the parts yet but look forward to trying again.

Challenging yet playful, with inventive sequences that stretch me in all the right places - love it!

I needed all of this!
Thank you for clear instructions and creative combinatios. I just need a bigger living room.
I will return to this class many times (I've not yet acheived a headstand).
Much to look forward to. Thank you.

So grateful i found do yoga with me

I feel calm, energised and can't stop smiling! Yet, I also feel as though I put in some real effort. Fantastic.

Great class. Satisfying shorter flow for both power and release. Loved the pranayama incorporation as well! Crista had me grinning half the time as usual, love love love~

Did half a head stand. She explains it so well now I know what I was doing wrong.
Thank you so much Christi! Soon my legs will be all the way up.
Namaste

Just when I think I can't love DYWM any more, you introduce Crista! Her style is just fantastic! Excellent class! I hope she does more! Thank you xx

Creative and fun class, awesome for energy
