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 :)

Thanks! We're adapting to our new system of categorization so I appreciate your feedback. I also think this is an Intermediate I class, so I've made the change. And yes, Ron's style is a bit different than Fiji's - it can be more challenging to follow!

Lmyers488, I too enjoy Fiji's amazing way of connecting all the dots together to allow for careful reflection of the inner and outer world. I always enjoy her classes as I connect profoundly. with her style. What I loved about Rons class was the invitation to try something new. I am curious to try a third one of his classes but I won't do it when I am looking for that invigorating flow, maybe on a rest. day. Thank you for the reclassification David, appreciated.

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.
