45 min version. Good class. Slow flow to start, but was nice once it got going. This is more a you ll feel it than bring a towel. I would say 6.5 out of 10. I might try the 60 minute and just skip the first 15 minutes next time.

YogaDownload, please re-edit the 20-minute version of this class! It s horrendous, completely mismatched. Whoever cut the longer version of the class into the 20-minute version messed up big time. And while you re at it, please get rid of the annoying music. The low rating I m giving this time is for YogaDownload, not for Lisa Richards! Lisa, if you re looking at these reviews, make sure YogaDownload does not ruin your reputation because of sloppy editing!

Lisa Richards is YogaDownloads best keep secret. Every single one of her classes is amazing! Where is she? Can you please come back, Lisa, and give us a few more outstanding practices? Please?
Some of the problems with shorter classes mentioned by other reviewers are editing problems, I believe. I wish they would go back and do the 60-minute class to experience how great an instructor Lisa is.
YogaDownload, if you re listening, please give us more classes with Lisa!

Great class...but should be done as a visual class only. I chose to do the audio version and there are several parts where the instructor is flowing, but not explaining what to do.

The pace is to slow to be a intermediate class. After 30 min of up/down dogs she finally gets to the intermediate poses. Lots of chatturangas if that s what you want. I read the reviews b4 I took this class. So disappointed.

Excellent and creative flow. After 15 years doing yoga, I had never heard of elbow to foot twist. Amazing... Challenging stretches, very good stress reliver.

Great class...hope newer members don t miss these older offerings from instructors like Lisa, Jackie and Dawnelle. Lisa is the best when it comes to classic vinyasa and slowly but powerfully building heat. Never rushed, always goes deep and keeps things fresh.

The first half of the class was the most confusing I ve ever experienced from this site; it was as if it had been edited wrong. The directions for what to do during the 2 or so minutes of inhaling and exhaling were not clear. And then the series after that was completely different for the left side and right side. (Warrior 3 on left side...not done on the right...etc etc etc). Very frustrating. And not worth the 20 minutes

Impossible to follow the audio for the 20 minute class. All she says is inhale exhale no indication of what pose you should be in. The pose guide doesn t offer any real help at all. So disappointed as the pose guide makes this class look great!

My review is for the 45 min audio version of this class. I prefer audio to video for classes. The audio quality of this class was erratic at best. Making adjustments to the audio of this class became a part of my vinyasa, until I gave up about 35 minutes into the class. I would crank it and she would sound far away, in a tin can, and then suddenly the sound would be normal and she would be booming into the mic.

I really like this sequence, but unfortunately found this class impossible.

This is a great class. Even the 30 minute version makes you feel challenged. You will be stretched and invigorated when you are finished.

I did the 60 min class, and the sequence was nice. I did not have any audio issues. I did not look at the video all the time, mainly listened for the cuing, which was fine. I would have liked to hear the music more, and as with ALL yoga videos it would be nice if they gave you a side view AND a front view at the same time, since some of them can be difficult to get the posture without seeing it from both angles.. But it has a nice flow, and covers a wide range of poses. Also it has some faster flowing times to up your heart rate. I would have liked to see some wide leg poses, and take away a little of the Asana.

I really liked this class. Nice to have the instructor do the class while teaching it. It builds nicely and has some good chances to challenge yourself. Works legs well and core.

I loved this class, but I am now kicking myself for waiting so long to purchase the video! I purchased the audio a while back, but found it too hard to follow, so after reading the reviews I eventually bought the video. If you have the ability to do this class as a video, I highly recommend opting for it over the audio. There were some really great, challenging poses in this series and Lisa takes you into them in interesting ways. I felt like she kept me on my toes, and really challenged me to focus, particularly with the balance poses. I love Lisa s style, both in the way she puts together her flows and in her cuing and voice.

The sound was off from the video. The poses seemed to be unbalanced in the 30 minute version (doing things on one side of the body but not the other). Maybe it was cropped from another version, but I have not experienced anything as extreme as this in other videos.

great class but the music is not what I want on a yoga video...first half is elevator music and second half is horror show music??

Am I crazy, or is there something missing here? This class started out awesome, but then audio cues disappeared in favor of "inhale, exhale," and I had no idea what to do. Is the longer class free of this problem? I d like to do this sequence somehow, but it s just not possible with this 20-minute class.

After sampling the 20-minute class, there is no way I would pay for longer versions. Certain exercises are only done on one side of the body, the audio cues to the next pose are scarce and confusing, the transitions are awkward... I can honestly say that this is the only BAD experience I ve had with a Yoga Download class. I m typically not one to complain about a free offer, but this is just poor.

I was very disappointed with the 30-minute class. First, there was a whole sequence of poses that they went through without any cues other than to breathe. Secondly, there are a few poses that are completed only on one side and another sequence of poses that are done twice. It makes for a bit of a confusing and unbalanced experience.

There are some interesting transitions in this class, but I would NOT use the 30-minute version to try them out.
