So excited to find one of this instructor’s classes. So great when crunched for time. A good combo of a workout plus relaxation.

I liked the sequence, it was just challenging enough, but was too hopeful some of the other reviews I read were maybe just out of proportion. Unfortunately, that was not the case. The breathing cues were a bit much (I think most people would prefer “hold here” or “take 5 breaths here”), pace in some areas too fast, and the constant touching on the model was extremely awkward.

The class was very plain. It repeated the same basic poses over & over, and there were none of the "lessons for life" that sometimes come up in yoga classes (e.g. "Set an intention for the day" "Think about what you can release"). It was all straightforward do this, do that. I didn t like that, though others might.
More of a problem for me was that it moved too fast for me to actually get into the poses. And the way she touched the model seemed inappropriate. She would straddle her during chaturanga and at one point put her hands on her inner thighs in downward dog. I hope this model knew what she was getting into!

I have to chime in with the other reviews on a few points -- the constant adjustments that the instructor gave her model made me feel like I was intruding on someone else s private yoga session. And her breathing instructions ("1 inhale... exhale, 2 inhale...exhale...") for 5 breaths on each pose got old really fast. I came to dread each new pose because I knew the counting would start again.

I liked the pose sequence but Alanna moves way too quickly, even for a Vinyasa flow. I couldn t get a full inhale or exhale in during the flow sequences and it was impossible to align myself correctly for Warrior One in the amount of time she gave. I agree that her constant interaction with the model was disconcerting. Overall, not a bad class but I probably won t do it again.

The instructor hovering over the model was a bit off putting as we re the constant cues to inhale and exhale. Good workout, quick paced.

This is a perfect clss when you don t have time for a full hour or 90 minutes. Alanna is a fabulous instructor. This class includes sun salutes, forward folds, back bending and hip opening poses. You will need to leave some time on the end on your own for savasana. This will be a regular for me when I m short on time!
