What an incredible video, I would love more beginner friendly half or full primary series where Jelena does the simplified poses (no lotus poses, no jump throughs to poses). 💌

You can easily modify this flow as well. You dont have to jump back or flow forward, you just step back or step forward. Where Jelena is doing lotus, I do just a cross legged position instead. It works for every pose 👍 I do not consider myself a beginner, but modifications are big part of my practice and I try to listen to my body every day. If my wrists are sore from practice, I dont do jumps or arm balances and if I am tired I would also skip vinyasa between switching legs in seated positions. Consistency is more important than difficulty or volume of practice. Wishing you guys awesome practice ❤

Hi D & J. I Practised this class this morning from my home studio on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland in Australia. I saw some of the other comments about wanting a more beginner-friendly Ashtanga practise and although that resonates with me as I also love the beginner versions, I thought this practise was hands-down very welcoming, with great queues and as a yogin person who struggles with ashtanga because of my 6'2 size and body shape- I still practised along and got a great practise in with your help. To be honest I love the standing part of the half primary and struggle with the floor. I have been attempting half primary for about 7 years now and still not getting better. I kind stay the same and give it a go when I am called anyway. THANK YOU AND THANK YOU AGAIN. I have already shared this class with some of my yogi peers and will practise with you both again.

I hand’s practiced Ashtanga for a couple of years to dedicate to more Vinyasa and Martial Arts and just randomly came back to it. It is helping immensely. The repetition, the coming back to the same postures, the results in such a short time. I am at day 5 of consequent practice with this video and I feel so so good.

After one year of practice at present I have improved till self headstands. After my practice I feel very chill and relaxed.This video would be useful during busy days. I work as teacher. During mornings I will not have that much time to practice with the lengthy video. Am little happy that I could use this one for my regular practice. Am little worried becoz am not able to go with all the poses due to short of time. Your corrections also I used to watch in 0stage and I will correct in my practice. REQUEST SIR: can u plz make a one hour video by covering all the pose sir. Plz make such video sir. Namaste 🙏 ji
