Finding and Expanding from Center

Hello! thank you for the amazing work you are doing! I was however wondering why is it two weeks now that we have the same free class? Are you going to upload a new one soon? Many thanks and Namasté!

Even though I am not quite ready for the arm balances, I was able to do some things in this session that I have not been able to do before, and I think it is because of the way Neesha keeps reminding us to pull into our center and expand from there. I love this class and will practice it again!

With flying crows, and grounded pigeons, this moderate level class contains clever sequence of many poses with reasonable hold times. Expect sweet stretching and little sweating. Enjoyable.

That was a lovely class - thank you Neesha! I learned so much, many great new ways/ perspectives on foot yoga, boat pose and connecting and strengthening muscle consciousness. Expand away~!

Although I'm not at the arm stand stage and I have a few knee issues, I was able to make it through the whole class and feel invigorated from it.

That was a challenge for me, but with Neesha's careful & very specific guidance I feel strengthened, stretched and balanced. Worth doing if only to realign myself in standing position.

Wow! Can't wait to do this class again - thanks Neesha for your patient guidance to full expansion!

I am far from being a guru yet but managed to do nearly all the poses thanks to Neesha great sequencing and advice. I really enjoyed the foot massage at the beginning.

Neesha is so good at gently opening us up both physically with her knowledge and emotionally with her kindness! Touching our true center our consciousness - such a treat! GREAT hip opening and deep stretching. highly recommend this session!

Great class ! I do it everyday. Thanks.

Neesha's instruction just has this way of gently encouraging me to open and relax into poses i didn't think were accessible to me atthe moment. The hour flew by. Thanks!

Loved Neesha's Instructions in each pose. I was able to open up and expand more into each pose.

I really enjoyed doing this class in my living room on his Friday (other than my cat climbing all over me during certain times!). I felt challenged and enjoyed it!

I just moved to southern California and I have been searching for a yoga studio to be consistent with. it is so nice to have this weekly free class to keep me in the groove while I''m in the midst of moving, planning a wedding and finding a job. I loved this class!oh!and now I'm finally doing my crane pose correctly!!

Nice sequencing of poses.

I haven't done any Yoga Today practices for a while, mainly because they are too long or I'm doing my own practice. But, this was a great stimulating sequence. Arm balances are my weakness, but Neesha's careful explanation & preparation enabled me to move closer to the final posture.

Holy cow Neesh! You guided me to be able to do things I didn't think were attainable at such an early stage in my Yoga journey.

...so I must have been having fun!

Enjoyed this. Great instruction as always from Neesha. There's a good balance of stretching and toning here, and although it's labeled guru, I think yogis still have a chance with most of these poses:-)

I loved the balance of this class - it really flowed nicely - and I dug the "foot yoga" in the beginning - I'm going to have to do that more often! There were wonderful hip openers, hamstring openers, standing poses, arm balances - overall a nice challenge and great flow.

Thanks Neesha for such a great class. I was a little disappointed in myself for not being able to do some of the final poses(crow pose and the canon ball effect pose)nevertheless I enjoyed every minute of this class.

I appreciate her comments on bringing back body awareness to which muscles are flexing. And sometimes the comments are great motivators to keep holding tough poses. But sometimes the commentary can be excessive "celebrate the diversity of you by flexing your fingers", if not bordering dangerously to being vapid "I know I want to be in the bliss of being", albeit always well-intentioned and cheerful. `

This was definitely a challenging class, however I tired and that is what counts and I feel better nonetheless. Thank you. ;o)

Firstly, thank you so much for all that's offered! I struggled through this, and at first felt a bit worthless and discouraged, but as Guru Neesha ended the practice with such encouraging and soothing words, as is her excellent way, I was able to just be thankful that I at least tried, and tried my best! I didn't just sit down or lay down somewhere inside my home, I got up and tried this practice, and it was well worth it! I am in some pain, but even more, I feel truly great, much more opened, and expansive as was the goal of this practice. Namaste:)!

I love that the mind-body connection is present throughout the entire routine. I was glad to be fully part of the class and not just going through the motions. Thanks Neesha : )

I've been practicing yoga for 5 years now and have never felt so centred, calm and collected after a class before. It was definitely hard but definitely worth it! Thanks, Neesha, your positivity is inspiring!

I certainly felt my center! Thank you for the great class. I liked the detail in your instructions and the playfulness with the arm balances :)

This class was very energizing - I love it! Thanks Neesha!

sweated a lot with this one. it is great for those who like arm balances. it has 6 handstand preparations (which i turned into full handstands), bakasana, galavasana, dolphin (turned it into full pincha mayurasana)... And Neesha's instruction is superb. I've done this class twice and my arm balances are way more refined this time around -thanks to her explanations on holding the center. great class

What a great challenge and overall awesome class. Thanks again Neesha !~

What a great class, thank you Neesha!!!

Gracias, me encanto!!! NAMASTE

I love Neesha classes but this one lacked flow to me. I am in Canada and it is really cold here so my body found really hard to stay in each pose, i needed more flow i guessto warm up and open up. Also, didn't find so inspiring like the other Neesha classes. But I do love Neesha no matter what. Neesha please more inspiring philosophy! Love to all.

Loved this! Energizing, fresh, and relaxing.

Much needed to relieve my runner's legs. Thank you!

This was a wonderful class with great instruction. Loved it, just what I needed to start my day.

A great way to start my day. I had to modify some postures,but it was good to try something different. Just as in life, it is good to change routines and do new things. Thanks

I have been feeling disconnected from my yoga practice the last few days, and this class really drew me back in. The attention to alignment in each pose is great, and allows you to connect deeply with the breath and your core. I feel awesome afterwards! =)

I liked that this practice incorporated a lot of poses that I've never done before, like Flying crow (can't do) and a few of the seated poses. Enjoyable class that offered lots of diverse poses.

Not just core strengthening but using the core in variety of poses. Lovely twists and hip openings as well.

Neesha was like my yoga cheerleader for this class. She would frequently be encouraging, "reach more, expand more", and I found my body responding to that. This class was a workout for arms, legs and core. It was also filled with deep stretches. I really liked how it began, different is refreshing.

Great class! Includes revolved triangle, crow, and FLYING CROW...awesome...

Great class! Includes revolved triangle, crow, and FLYING CROW...awesome. Thanks Neesha!

I don't think I've ever been as aware of my core in any exercise class as I was in this one. Neesha's reminders to move out from the center helped me to do just that like never before. Although I have been practicing yoga for less than a year and some of the poses in this class had my body saying, "Uh, I don't think so," I still enjoyed trying them and was inspired to discover what my body may be capable of in the future...

Whew! I'm invigorated and centered! I really enjoyed the arm balances and standing poses. Neesha's guidance on using the core to achieve these poses really made them accessible. I'll be coming back soon...

I'll be coming back to this class often as it finds the nooks and crannies where my core drops and my breath goes shallow. I learned alot from this class! Thanks again Neesha :)

I liked the diversity of this class and the fact that Neesha does not go on tangents or get too exalted (as, well, it sometimes happens!). And in this class the detail is not too abstract, I can still feel it. I will be going back to this one.

This is one of the best flows that I have ever done. I keep coming back to it over and over and find it to be extremely powerful for helping me find center. The toe yoga followed by the abdominal excercises give great focus. Thanks, Neesha, for such a special sequence!
