Lots of twists. Empty stomach for sure. Good way to start the day.
Excellent. Great pace & postures for a morning wake up after a previous long work day! I l like Julia's cues and timing. It shows that careful thought and planning went into this class. Thank you!
Great before breakfast
Super nice way to begin the day! Thank you!
I enjoyed this class. Julia keeps a nice steady pace and gently heats up the body with several twists, engaging the glutes, abs and hamstrings. To liked the stomach breathing exercises. This is great way to start the day.
I love this morning class! It's truly nourishing and balancing with a perfect pace to tune into the body. I love how Julia added the stomach pumping for digestion. I feel enlivened and ready for the day!
Nice focus and movement for the early morning with some strength and lovely twists - thank you!
Every time I come back to this class I enjoy it more than before!
I'm so glad Claudia!
This class was not as much of a work out as I like for a Vinyasa/Power Yoga practice. I thought with a class longer than 30 min I would have a least a half an hour of raised heart rate. The stomach contraction exercises that took a large focus in the center of the class should have been mentioned in the class description paragraph. I wish it had been so I could have made an informed decision on my choice of class.
Thank you!! A great morning class!
loved this class
Definitely don't do this class right after eating!
This was a really nice morning stretch. Felt just right for my still joints this morning! 🌈
This felt great! I also like doing yoga before food to light the digestive fire
@beccamama I'm glad it hit the spot!
Loved this morning practice. Perfect way to start the day! Thank you!
Thanks StephZ!
fantastic way to start the day! thank you
Wonderful morning practice. Feels great to 'yoga' before food and get my body tuned and open. I also appreciate a morning practice that starts so slow and still has some strenuous warm up bits!
Such a wonderful class! Thank you!
Julia’s ray of sunshine visualization was so helpful in treating my newly awoken body with grace this morning. I am 27 weeks pregnant and she gave reminders and prompts for variations throughout the class for anyone who might need it. I felt like I had “permission” to modify as needed without shame. Thank you, Julia!
Thank you Andrea!
loved it
Thank you so much for this wonderful morning practice - I love it. Is it possible for you to provide more information and/or links on the digestive fire breathing techniques?
Great question @kimberlysavage! For Nauli, in our classes Crista teaches it twice: https://www.doyogawithme.com/content/elements-day-10, and https://www.doyogawithme.com/content/power-yoga-wake. Both are done at the beginning of the class if you'd like to give it a try with her instruction.
Otherwise, google and youtube can help significantly if you just type in 'Nauli' or 'Nauli kriya.'
It's a powerful cleansing technique for sure, and takes a while to master. I hope that helps!
Nice practice, Julia certainly can hold a pose! Lost me at the mention of toxins...
Did this one in late afternoon, empty stomach before dinner. Lovely practice.
This was a great practice for an unmotivated Monday morning. I feel refreshed and ready.
Before food
After a short break from my daily practice this class reminded me of the importance of prioritizing my yoga as a crucial tool in nourishment mind, body and soul. Thank you Julia
Fantastic, insightful class! Many thanks!
Very nice gentle morning practice. Thank you, Julia!
Such a beautiful sequence to revisit an int. 1 practice. Wanted to meet Julia Crouch’s teaching this way.
Lovely and just what was needed! Will return often. Thank you!
