very gentle and calm. My body feels more open after this class and my mind feels calm
I love this. Please do more strength training videos!!!
two things:
- this class is amazing!! if you need a mind-break, consider taking it.
-I had had to leave DYWM over concerns over cultural appropriation and insensitivity specially regarding the use of the word "Namaste" on the site and commentary around it when it came up in discussion (when I had pointed out in a comment that in India namaste is never used at the close of a sentence- that comment had been deleted which is led to me leaving, deleting comments means an unwillingness to even engage in conversation). I came back because the teachers are awesome. I LOVED that Melissa at least acknowledges the roots of yoga, where it comes from and the people it belongs to.
Melissa - This collection came at the perfect time. Thank you for your candor and your creativity.
Beautiful practice; beautiful spirit. Exactly what I needed. I became a subscriber member for access to this series; very happy that I did. It was such a surprise to realize that I can’t recall the last time I was invited to listen so closely to and respect my body and feelings in such an accepting manner. Classes were fun and clear and also as challenging a workout as I wished.
Absolutely loved the addition of free weights and body weight resistance to this class (Building Strength and Resiliency) More please!
Yes please Melissa,,,more of these classes!!!
would love a challenge around this theme
As a trauma-informed yoga instructor I have struggled the last 4 months, unable to practice due to some broken bones. When I began again this week I saw this series and knew it was what I needed. The mix of play, strength building and core postures was a perfect reintroduction to my mat, and allowed me to let go of my anxiety and be in the moment.
A fun and cheerful 3 part series. Different and enjoyable.
