Hey, everyone, why don't you all grab your mats?
Sorry, l recognize you from the cover o_ Namaste Magazнne. l'm a huge fan.
Thank you. That's so sweet of you to say.
l appreciate that. Obviously, l don't do yoga for recognition.
Right, of course you wouldn't.
Then stop being so good at it.
That's very flexible. That's nice.
And, you, l recognize you from your show.
Thank you.
You seem much taller on your show.
No, I _,ow. l'm not.
Okay, if you iust wanna start by bringing your palms into your chest.
Today we're gonna start with the Surya Namaskar, or Sun Salutation.
Let's take a deep inhale in.
Exhale and release the hands.
lnhale, arms up to the sky. Continue.
Good, exhale and folding forward.
Strong, strong backs. Good, excellent.
Remember this is not a competition,
although you two seem to be the best in the class.
Excellent. Perfect form, you two, perfect.
Coming up into downward-facing dog.
Good. It's really important in this pose,
that you arch your back and keep it flat at the same time.
l feel like those are opposing ideas.
No, they're not, 'cause you're arching your back up while it's flat.
Okay.
Good, yeah, sweat it out. Sweat out all the toxins from this morning.
Come on, lady. My name is Prana,
and l know that wasn't just juice.
You don't really need any adjusting,
so l'm iust gonna do this for myself.
Just to learn from your body,
memorize your body.
Good. Strong legs.
Come on.
Perfect skin and form.
Okay, class, l'd like to now move into a tripod headstand.
This is more of an advanced pose,
so if you don't feel comfortable or strong enough,
please feel free to just lay on your mat in child's pose.
l got it.
All right, so let's all come down to our mats.
Get in a prep position for the tripod headstand.
lf you don't feel comfortable,
there's no shame in just laying on your mat in child's pose.
PETER: Lady, l got it. Okay.
Good, so let's prep to come up. Good.
Sir, if you iust want to lay down in child's pose.
(GRUNTS)
Now, you all heard me say,
''lf you want to be in child's pose, that's okay.''
Just in case he gets hurt.
Bring it, bring it.
l don't want you to break your neck.
PETER: What's up? Just relax.
My legs, that's what.
We're doing quiet headstands today.

Okay, you know, why don't we just release.
Thank God.
Good, everybody. Good.
