As an athlete, this was definitely not worth it. It was very slow moving, never left the floor and more of some easy stretching than anything. Would not recommend for anyone trying to get in even the littlest amount of work, maybe more appropriate for a cool down after an intense run/work out.
My favorite part was Dez's face when she kept almost hitting herself in the face while doing elbow circles :p All in all a nice video, though.
This class was more of a warm-up and/or a cool-down, but there was no middle part. I too would consider this more pilates and just gentle stretching, than I would yoga. Everything was from a seated position. There was never a point of strengthening or heart rate increasing poses -- just mild stretching.
While the class was a good stretch and the instructor was wonderful, I was disappointed. This is closer to pilates in feeling than yoga. I definitely recommend recategorizing it so that people aren't misled in the future.
