Power Yoga for Balance
In Ron's first class, he shows you why so many students love his style. He's a dancer, performer and massage practitioner, and all of these skills are expressed in his classes. This class is fun, vigorous and a beautiful progression into some very difficult standing balance postures. You will hear Ron mention Mula Bandha, which is a pelvic floor contraction. If you're unfamiliar with this, check out our Core Activation: Pelvic Floor video tutorial.

Unfortunately the first class on this site that I did not enjoy, due to false expectations with the labeling. I would categorize this as an intermediate 1 instead of 3, and not necessarily a power class. Also, I found Ron did not give adequate instruction and I had to constantly look at the video to see what he was doing (right or left leg? I’m lifting my arms now?). Maybe I’ve been doing too many of Fiji’s classes though :)
I just found this session and Ron has cured (well, nearly) my wobblies! The magic is in the "dancing ankle". I realized that the more I wobbled in class, the more I tried to harden my ankle resulting in even worse balance. I was in a circle that just kept getting worse until listening to Ron and keeping my ankle more relaxed and being ok with it moving.
quite an eclectic series. super fun. super dynamic and grateful for more awareness to balancing. Thanks, Ron.
stunning sequence, ron.
