This In-Depth workshop class combines detailed alignment and powerful, flowing movements. PowerYogaTherapy seeks to provide students with an understanding of "how" and "why"yoga postures work. With an emphasis on muscular balance and postural integrity over aesthetics and performance, this class aims to change the practice of "power yoga" from potentially dangerous contortion into a profound tool for healing and transforming the human body.

I love the detailed instruction and alignment so often lacking in power yoga these days, but the constant first person narrative s distancing and distracting for the student. I would for this teacher to focus more on what the student is working on rather than himself. Otherwise this is very helpful video.

Well, I am a super beginner who has tried and failed many times to find a place for yoga in my life. High strung, stressed out, hyper active...never thought I could make it work but always keep coming back. I really enjoyed this class. Who knew my attention span could handle 90 minutes! I am an ICU nurse and also really appreciate the focus on the physiology of the body. This was enough activity to feel like I "worked out" and a great ending to make me chill out. Thank you very much for a great experience.

This is perfect for a beginner and should be labeled as such. But I was looking for a vigorous power yoga session. Too much instruction for my level. I will, however, recommend it to my sister for whom this would be perfect.

Jesse, you are amazing. You don't make me feel ashamed at all for not 'being better.' I just know that where I am is good enough....and I will continue to extend that feeling. You are an excellent and wise teacher.

My New Year's resolution is to do more yoga. This is the first class I've done to get back into the practice. How fortuitous! Your simple, clear instruction helped me to keep the most important principles in mind. Thank you for creating this video! namaste

Jesse is one amazing teacher. You make anatomy so interesting. I like how you talk a lot throughout. Some teachers talk...some don't. Doesn't make any style better than the other, it just makes it different. You are clearly teaching from your gift. Please make more videos!
