A great class. The cues are easy to follow and somehow motivational to do your best.

At first I felt like it wasn t an adequate warm-up as we were doing some intense stretches before our first updog, there weren t the traditional sun salutations. But by the end of the class, I was glad she spared us as my wrists were feeling it, and we did warm-up while flowing. I loved this class, will go back to it, as I made major progress on my Koundinyasanas and compass pose from just this one class. I appreciated trying to get into them in different ways and I m going to start checking out all her classes. I read a previous review that the instructor s voice is annoying. I know what the commenter means, but I didn t find that was the case with this teacher.

Definitely lives up to its advanced intermediate billing. Some of the sequences aren t balanced from side to side (different movements left and right). Very challenging, if not paced slightly too quickly. The poses are challenging enough, and very little time is given to recover or get into poses. The pace may be good for practitioners who perform these poses regularly. First time through was a struggle!

Michelle may be a great instructor but I ll never find out. Her voice is so irritating I cannot bring myself to listen to her for more than 5 minutes. Perhaps she could use a "voice model" instead of a yoga model and have someone else narrate her classes...

This was a deliciously challenging class - the reason I have my subscription to yogadownload is for classes like this that push my edge skillfully. Due to its level of difficulty, I prefer doing a short cardio warm-up before even starting. I enjoyed the transition from visvamitrasana to eka pada koundinasana. Also very good curing for the binds and enough binds to really get deeper over multiple attempts. If I had one critique I would say that I would have liked to have held a few of the poses a bit longer - the pace was a bit fast. The class with 53 minutes - if it was 60 minutes with some longer holds it would be perfect. Please keep doing high level classes like this - it makes the practice much more fun!

I decided to try this class today despite not yet having any of these challenging split leg poses or arm balances in my practice, and I m glad I did. The instructor approached these poses with a spirit of playfulness and reminded me that we have our whole lives to keep working on them. I feel great for having accepted the challenge of starting today.
