What’s one pose you avoid (or feel resistant to), and what do you think is underneath that?
Could be physical sensation, skeletal limitations, boredom, emotions, or not knowing if you’re doing it “right.”

I received some valuable feedback on today's calendar video – a faster-paced, more dynamic class. It's a bit of an outlier on this site because of how challenging it is, and it was an unpleasant surprise for at least one person.

As you may know, the classes on the yoga calendar are generally quite accessible and easy to follow. However, for variety I try to include at least one dynamic/challenging practice each week. If you ever want to check, scan the video page for the class level, where you'll see "Beginners & All Levels" or "Intermediate/Experienced." 

I recorded this particular video five years ago as an "Intermediate" practice during my first year in building this membership site. At the time, the site included a broader mix of styles. Since then, it's become more yin-focused, and I've tried to keep those older, more athletic classes off the daily calendar. 

Today's video still made its way into the calendar – possibly because I'd given it a misleading title: "Yin Yang Yoga Flow." To fix that, I've just changed the name to Yang Yoga Flow, I've changed the thumbnail, and I've recategorized it in the Yang Yoga category. Even though there are some yin poses at the end, this class shouldn't have had the word "Yin" in the title. 

With over 300 classes in the catalog now, I sometimes lose track! Which is why this kind of feedback from members is really helpful. If you ever think any other class has a misleading title, level, or thumbnail, don't hesitate to let me know.

Thank you Marc Elmlund for giving your helpful and honest feedback. 🙏

By popular request, I've made a 20 minute version of the DAILY FASCIA STRETCH video, with the same routine as last month's 15-Min Daily Fascia Stretch, but with 1-minute holds for each pose instead of 43 seconds. Both are evidence-based routines for full-body flexibility: Do the 15-min version every day, or do the 20-min version five days a week. Enjoy, and let me know which you prefer!
