First time I watched one of your videos and this was totally great. Got my leg somewhat up in flying pigeon, even if it was just for few seconds. Wheel pose after that felt super great, I had so much strength, I never got so far up. I’ll be back tomorrow:)
Yes a lot of heavy breathing going on today lol! Been a while since I did this, was a lot of work but still making progress, just need to keep practicing! Thank you Allie once again! ⛵️✨������☮����
I was definitely getting my butt and hamstrings kicked! But think I’m getting stronger ✨❤️��thank you for you teachings Allie!!!!!
Darn, this class is so epic! And I love not knowing what’s in it for me today, the first time I did this class I could’nt lift off and fly but instead took a full wheel in the end for the very first time! This second time I managed a hoovering pigeon, a crow pose for 6 sec (first time over a sec) and a wheel at the end again which I could hold a bit longer this time. Woooo! Thanks for your awesome flows Allie!
Love your videos and the pace you teach at! I did not fly today but I am grateful for the foundation to get there!
Ellie, I love your sequences and the speed of the practice! Today I’ve started to fly a little bit in Flying Pigeon pose for the first time��. I’m very grateful to you for sharing this wonderful class! I can’t wait to practice with you again! Namaste������
Woah…flying pigeon pose is killer! Didn’t quite get it the first try, but at least got off the ground without falling on my face! Love your pants btw Allie. Keep those awesome flows coming ��✌
Wow, I love this flow bringing me into my strength. I didn’t fly yet, I’ll need a little more opening and strength, but I’ll definitely keep on practicing!!! Thanks for this one! <3
my legs are on fire at d same time getting into shape..sweating all over my body feels great…consistency must be a key to achieve the goal..thanx allie for being a motivator along with fruitful and inspiring session. #LOVE #NAMASTE.
Wow! That was a tough one, I can’t wait to be able to fly! Getting stronger but still so far away!!������you amaze me Allie
Was that magic?!!!! How the heck did you do that? Thank you for this flow, I’m going to keep trying until I get it. Heard you on Melyssa Griffin’s podcast and HAD to check you out. I’m thinking of becoming a yoga instructor and already have lots going on in my own biz. Thank you for your inspiration! Happy New Year!
I’ve been trying some during the Marichyasana series while floating back, don’t get ‘m that high though…..
Love your channel! Where do you get your yoga outfits?! I love them!
Omg! I actually got my leg kicked out a bit! Lol and I touched my Head to the ground on both sides of humble warrior! I am making progress! Yay thank you Allie for all of these amazing practices! I would not be here a year later still doing yoga if it wasn’t for you! Thank you����✨⛵️
Great shirt SMILE. THE “Shana secret to ALL Yoga” has really helped me get a Crow… hum now am I ready to try this pose SMILE…. hum sure WHY NOT? cheers charles
is there another video? can only see 8 and half mins so class cuts out:/
thank you again for a very well explained video! excellent demo of the pitfalls as watching this made me realise why my back leg cannot extend easily. thanks shana!
Absolutely loved this sequence and your videos! Thank you so much ��
Awesome flow! Love the strength building. Didn’t fly yet! But I’m certain if I keep this in my regular practice, I will get there��
Yay! Thank you for this video!!! Going to try this tonight!
Thank you for this practice Allie! It was wonderful! Flying pigeon is a tough one! You are amazing! ⛵️��������
thank you so much, Shana �� You’re always so awesome! It’s been difficult to get into this asana. I’ll try your tips:) xx
I love this sequence! It really did warm me up but I still can’t get that leg up. It’s so infuriating!! As soon as I try to get that leg up, my toes lose grip along the tricep and I faceplant the floor. Do you have any advice? So annoying:( x
Thank you!!! For me you are the best! Great job! I am looking forward for more videos!
Fantastic tips Matt. Have been struggling to lift leg straight back and hold for so long. Everting the foot and pulling the hip back makes so much sense. Thank you!!
