Fantastic morning practice! Invigorating. A reminder it is those days when you are tempted to stay in bed that it is the most worthwhile to get up and practice. I would also attribute this to this class thou, it just filled me with positive energy. I really enjoy Fiji's classes, her cues are strong, clear, positive. Thank you for a great start to my day. I will be doing this class again. Ps. I have just finished a two week challenge by Fiji, if you are feeling tempted, do it! Proud to complete and it has really enhanced my practice. Thank you Fiji

Approachable intermediate class with excellent cuing. As a yoga teacher and practitioner of 20+ years I appreciate the sequence growth of Fiji's classes, they are sensible and appropriate. Thank Fiji for another satisfying asana practice.

I am sorry but this is not yoga. The connection between your mind and breath and body are not very good here at all. It is way too fast to sit into any of the poses and feel them or even get much from them at all. I am beyond intermediate and practice four times a week and I do not recommend this class at all. Sorry for being so negative, this just didn't feel like yoga one bit.

Perhaps your definition/understanding of yoga is limited? Your comment strikes me as frustration masked as critique. I encourage you to sit with whatever emotions and reactions that this practice is bringing up for you and try to understand where they are coming from and what they mean or are trying to communicate. Perhaps this practice is simply challenging to you for whatever reason. That is perfectly fine as well. Simply because a thing is a challenge to or for us, does not then make it bad, flawed, or fraudulent. It simply makes it a challenge. It certainly does not take away from your level or consistency in yoga practice. I have come back to this video many times over the years and trust me, some days I am able to follow the video straight through and other days like today, I struggle. It is fine. What matters is showing up, being present and doing our best.

I love this encouragement to go deeper within and sit with oneself. You communicated this with some compassion and much wisdom. Thank you. Namaste.

I've come back to this practice over and over through the years. I find it invigorating and challenging -- and the best challenge has been to complete this practice with grace. Perhaps there is more than one way to define yoga. Or perhaps no need to define it at all. Hoping that all of you are staying healthy and well during these tumultuous times.

If we're talking about 'what yoga is', then I will add that the extraordinary negativity in your comment does not represent a 'yoga mindset' and I would tend not to take seriously any comments about yoga from someone with your attitude.
Wishing you to see the good...

THIS.CLASS.IS.AWESOME!!!!!!
I am a big FIJI-FAN, I just finished the 14 day challenge and it was excellent. I probably could have not done this class without the 2 week challenge. She is an awesome teacher. Just joined DYWM, can not wait to meet other great teachers!!!!! DO THIS CLASS, you will love it!!

I really love this class! But I'm having trouble with the video freezing up in the same place every time I do it. Is anyone else experiencing this?
