I noticed other users uploading these sessions, so I figured I’d add to their efforts by uploading the ones they missed. I’ll split them up so I can do the presentation nicely.Udaya and Venice Beach/Yoga Collective have a 12USD monthly subscription that gets access to their video collection, yoga sessions from their instructors and guest instructors. These are high quality HD 720p videos. Maybe we should do a GB sometime and get the whole collection? That would be a LOT of yoga!Keep in mind, every yoga teacher has their own style, they may not all fit yours, just try them out and don’t get discouraged.Alyssa Ablan: I Can Dance (60 Minutes)About the instructor:Alyssa’s classes are strong, yet graceful and light-hearted with the intention of cultivating strength, flexibility and balance. With an understanding that each student is exactly where they need to be on their path, she provides safe alignment techniques while encouraging a deep internal awareness. She has been blessed to have had the opportunity to study with some of the greatest teachers of our time, and is honored to share what has inspired her path towards freedom. Alyssa teaches local yoga classes in Santa Monica, California.Source: UdayaAbout the class:King Dancer is a surprisingly difficult but fun pose to master. It requires good balance, hip flexibility, core strength and open shoulders. A good way to practice King Dancer pose is to use a strap, however a strap is optional. King Dancer improves balance, focus, and opens up your shoulders (and heart!).Source: UdayaPersonally, I think Dancer poses are some of the most annoying asanas, requiring focus, balance AND flexibility. I’d rather do a Scorpion than a Dancer. This one, however, was pretty mild, and only a few minutes of the entire session. The rest was a standard, slow-paced Power Yoga session. Although Alyssa could really have used a glass of water, poor thing kept clearing her throat. You won’t notice unless yoga is easy enough that your mind actually wanders off though.Level: Intermediate/AdvancedVideo: x264-Main@L4; 1280*720 (16:9); 1427 Kbps; 23.976 fpsAudio: AAC-LC; 160 Kbps; 2 Ch; 48.0 Khz
