    New class every Tuesday. 350+ full classes in the Unlimited Archive at JustGreatYoga.com 🙏🏽 Jay's Notes Started this one strong but there was a lot of grunting from the class so we chilled it out and ended melty. AI Search-Optimized Description A complete practice with a genuine change of gears. This one begins on the stronger side, building heat through standing work, twists, and balance, but as the room starts asking for a little less, the practice listens. The intensity gradually backs off, the pacing opens up, and what began as a strong flow lands somewhere much softer and meltier.That evolving arc is what makes this class distinctive. Rather than sticking stubbornly to the original plan, it responds to the people in the room—moving from effort toward release without feeling like two separate practices. You still get satisfying strength and engagement up front, but increasingly more permission to soften as the class unfolds. A great choice when you want to work, but don't necessarily want to work hard for the entire hour. Class Details Length: Complete Practice (65 min, preview 28 min) Physical Intensity: Steady Flow Feel: Energizing → Restorative Experience Type: Melt & Settle Recorded: 260616.1230 What Makes This One Unique A pronounced arc from stronger physical work into a soft, melty finishThe sequence visibly responds to the energy and needs of the roomStanding strength and balance concentrated more heavily in the earlier practiceGradual downshift rather than an abrupt transition into recoveryA particularly good example of effort and restoration living inside the same classGood For strength plus recovery • winding down • lower body strength • balance work • stress relief • active recovery • days when you want to work and then let go Key Poses Crescent • Chair Twist • Pyramid • Warrior III • Locust Tags strong to gentle yoga, downshift yoga, active recovery, restorative finish, standing strength, chair twist, pyramid pose, warrior III, locust pose, balance yoga, lower body strength, stress relief, calming yoga, melty yoga, complete practice

    #393 Metta World Presence (preview)

    Gentle Presence & Mindful Flow — Complete Practice (66 min, 24 min preview) A gentle complete practice that invites you to shift your attention away from perfecting poses and toward simply being present with the experience of moving. While there are moments of meaningful challenge, the emphasis remains on awareness, steadiness, and meeting each posture with curiosity rather than expectation.The sequence offers enough strength and balance work to keep you engaged, but physical accomplishment is never the point. Instead, the practice creates space to notice your breath, your reactions, and the subtle quality of your attention from one moment to the next. The result is a class that feels nourishing, centered, and quietly transformative.This is a beautiful choice for days when you want yoga to be less about what you can do and more about how you choose to be.

    #98 The Great Liberation (full class)

    This is one from before covid. It was really heartwarming for me to play this back and hear the fullness of the room, been missing teaching in person a lot lately. Otherwise nothing fancy about this one, just a smooth flow with a great rhythm to it. 🧘🏽‍♂️: one leg chatturanga, awkward airplane 🎙: 190912.1230 New class every Tuesday. 350+ full classes in the Unlimited Archive at JustGreatYoga.com 🙏🏽
