Strengthen and Lengthen

This is my go to class after a previous harder day. I come back to this class often.

Thank you Anastasia, just what I needed today.

This practice was ok however it seemed to not be "even". We lifted our right leg into three legged dog however not our left to 3 legged on the left side. I also found some of the cues and transitions a bit odd.

Peaceful and soothing. Nice way to wind down the day before bed. Thank you.

I come back to this class again and again when I need a stretch, and to have a bit of challenge with some kindness to myself. This is a great class and I love Anastasia's soothing voice.

BEAUTIFUL CLASS

12/26/19 This was a really delicious practice! Deep stretching for the hamstrings and back, a few twists, a little core work....very peacefully guided. Fantastic way to work out all the kinks in 30 minutes. I really like Anastasia's teaching style - would love to see more intermediate practices from her!

Thank you thank you Anastasia! I needed just that class to get back in my body <3

I have done this class several times, and every time gets better. The pace is perfect, a slow flow with some moments of stillness. Some of the postures can be a bit challenging, but not extenuating. I recommend it strongly. And thank you, Anastasia, for your excellent teaching! Namaste!

Anastasia is a wonderful teacher! Really great class, thank you!

This was a lovely yoga session for the morning. Just the right length of time and a great sequence of flow poses for my back.

Thank you.

I enjoyed this class very much. It is gentle yet challenging from time to time. Is this something I can do just before bedtime? I am looking for something I can do in the evening after all chores are done, and just before bedtime. And suggestion would be appreciate!!

My spine thank you for a good stretch.

I have been doing classes for a couple years now. However, I find this class awesome after my morning run. Greta work, thanks Scott :)

I really really like that class: Great exercises and clear intructions. One of my favourite classes.

This video was great. I am moving from beginner to intermediate. Anastasia provided great guidance. The biggest problem is that there was something wrong with the video. At about 13:50, audio commercials were coming through. It continued forabout a minute, sometimes stopping the video, other times just playing over Anastasia's voice. It also did it at the end, forcing the video to stop. If that can be fixed, I will be coming back to this video again. Thank you for such a great website! It has helped me alot.

Something seems wrong with this video. Multiple times it acted like a record that skips

Great class! I found it very realaxing but challenging at the same time. Another good one for beginners transitioning to intermediate. I am loving all of Anastasia's classes. I get so excited whenever a new video is posted - not just for hers but any new ones :)

Still one of my favorites! Especially when coming back to the mat after a couple of weeks! A stress reducer for me!

... of gentle and clear, of strengthening, stretching and softening. Amazing 'simple' process in 30 min. Stretching and core strength are so important for me since I'm tall, and working in a sitting position. Loved the initial body awareness as a foundation, the pace, the counterposes, and your voice and guidance, Anastasia!
A great start into the morning. Can see myself doing it often, any time of day... 'simply' as a desk break.
Thank you so much, Anastasia, for adding this one!
Loved the oceanic background (Cordova Bay?) too.
Much Love,
Melanie

Brilliant class ,,, loved it!

It is definitely more beginner than intermediate and very slow. I did not love the sequencing either.

Beautiful morning class, gentle but strong. Very impressed and ready to start my day.
Thank you

Thank you Anastasia! Another great class! I think Anastasia is a very good teacher because she conducts her classes slowly.

This is a lovely class. Perfect for before bed.

You are simply lovely Anastasia, and your teaching style is beautiful.

This was a wonderful class.

I love her energy. Very calming and soothing. Great class!!!

I re watched the video and was wrong about her missing sides! Please forgive me and ignore my earlier comment!!

I really liked the flow of movement but Anastasia skipped the right side of a few moves. Luckily I could pause the video and add them in! Otherwise a really nice quiet flow.

Good class for early intermediate and experienced beginners. Well taught.
Namaste

This was just enough for my busy evening when I could not get to the gym. Thank you!

Beautiful class.

Thanks Anastasia
I will definitely look for more classes of yours. I didn't want to take a longer class, so I tried this one...and I was left needing more.

Amazing! Nothing could made my back feel this good after tango. She does a great job!

This site has helped me tremendously with the arthritis-like symptoms side effects of Tamoxifen (estrogen-blocking post-breast-cancer treatment drug) and has kept me off non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. I am so thankful for this! I have to be very careful not to tweak or injure myself as it becomes a huge, inflammatory issue that takes weeks to resolve. Therefore, I have been doing "beginner" level yoga activities here for over a year and was very comfortable at that level! I wanted to challenge myself a little more and this session was the perfect thing - I did work up a sweat! I hope to ease into more intermediate activities this year and thank you again for the wonderful variety to choose from! I tell everyone about this site and my great appreciation for it!

Great, relaxing workout for sore muscles!

Perfect class.

The warmup is a little slow, so I was worried at first. Turns out the sun salutation flow is just challenging enough for someone getting back into yoga, like me.
Good spine stretches, great poses like dolphin.
This is low-level intermediate or high-level beginner.
Excellent class, thanks!

This is me getting back into yoga! I just love your classes, and you! You're the BEST! <3

Awesome stretching class with some great moves to heat you up in the middle - love the way Anastasia teaches!

Nice morning class. Just a bit of challenge but nothing too crazy. Great stretch.

I enjoyed this class a lot. Anastasia has a very calm, down to earth voice and style. The class moves slowly and helped me feel centered and peaceful while stretching and strengthening. Thank you!

This was a great step from beginner to intermediate for me. Your teaching is very clear. Thank you.

Nice class, gentle yet deep for the spine. When I don't feel like being too vigorous yet don't want to forego my daily yoga.
Thank you Anastasia.
Namaste
