This class felt SO GOOD. It was challenging to hold the intense stretches and poses for so long. Looking forward to trying some of Rob s other classes now!

I did this class as part of the 2022 challenge. I was at first hesitant because of the peak pose, but then I decided to embrace the challenge. I did not fully get there, but I tried, and remembered that the journey is the point. Thank you for this great reminder!

This was awesome! Very well sequenced. I hadn t done Bird of Paradise in a long time and managed to eek one out at the end (not that it matters, of course). I also learned a lot along the way and appreciated being reminded of the finer points of the poses and binds. On this particular morning, I came out of this class feeling fluid and energized.Thank you!

Joining from Japan! Just found the new year challenge over the internet as I was looking for the ways to deepen my yoga practices.
Had fun doing this, although it was challenging especially with the standing splits and the birds of paradise - now I know where to focus on my practice :) Thank you for the class!

I am rediscovering Rob and all his great classes. They are interesting, productive and always fun. This class is no different it builds to the peak pose using thoughtful sequencing. Shoulders and hips will say thank you for this one.

Great class. Cues are very clear and easy to follow. Love how Rob pays attention to alignment. One of the best instructors I have found.

Amazing class. I love the pace of all his classes. I love the mixture of flowing and longer holds while working on strength and flexibility. I ALWAYS finish his classes feeling refreshed.

Love the cues and the alignment tips. I was able to achieve the bind without difficulty but my standing leg was too shaky to hold the peak pose for very long. I think i can get there with a little more practice. Fun flow.

I have many of Rob s classes in my library and this one will likely be there as well. Clear and concise instruction. Progressive in nature, finishing with the peak pose. Along the way you will be challenged in balancing and binding.

WOW!! another amazing class by Rob, he really is the best teacher one can find, his cues are perfect, taking you softly to the best you can be, I can´t say enough of such a wonderful teacher, I felt sooooo good after doing this class, what a wonderful shoulder opening, we accumulate lots of stress in our shoulders so this is the class to take if you need to open and release them, thank you Rob for another great class.

First time ... FIRST time in Birds of Paradise with elegance and form; without looking like a scarecrow in the wind, In my living room at that .... Excellent prep, prop usage and cues to find the way in!! Namaste!~

Rob is so gifted as a teacher! His cuing is a thing of beauty. His voice conveys calm and joy. He builds at a perfect pace, achieving heat and depth and big, open stretches. I hope that when I teach in the future, I can have half the grace and kindness and skill that he does. Rob, thank you! You are magnificent!

Very good class for a challenging pose! My hips really needed this after a long day of sitting at a lab bench. The instructor was clear and gave great options if you are like me and couldn t bind in all of the poses.

Loved the flows in this class. I wasn t able to get into the full expression of Birds of Paradise, but this class really prepares you for it and I think if I come back to this class a few more times I will get there. Also enjoyed the focus on hamstrings as these are always tight for me. Thanks!

I really enjoyed the cadence of this class. The shoulder openers were tough, but Rob guided us through the flow and held the poses at a comfortable length of time. This class was challenging but I really liked as I do not work my shoulders as much as I should. Great class to open up the shoulders.

Amazing class! It s a great flow, and some opportunities to try half and full binds. He gives great alignment tips and modifications. This was my first attempt at birds of paradise. I could only get one side, but it was a great set up. Will definitely do this class again.

About 1/3 of the way through & my quads were burning!! So good. Getting back on my yoga game so I only did half the class, but I loved it. As everyone else said, the cueing was great. Also his little alignment tips were on point. I don t know if I ve ever been as aware of the tiny details as I was in his class. I will definitely be returning to do the entire class ??
