Yoga Warrior 365

First, let me say that if you base your idea of the difficulty of this practice on "The Gathering" you will be sadly mistaken. The Gathering is easy and is very, very introductory. However, as you work through the other parts of this practice you will discover that you are a dripping, soggy puddle from the intensity of the program. So often I see reviews saying this is "so much easier than the Ultimate Yogi." Not true. I do both - the Ultimate Yogi is just different. The Ultimate Yogi is the Type A person's yoga practice, whereas Rudy is the antidote to that type of behavior. Rudy absolutely forces you to slow down and to completely "be" in any particular moment and pose. I'm a *very* Type A person so I completely adored Ultimate Yogi (and still do) because it feeds that part of me that wants to go-go-go, to conquer, to do and do some more. However, in working my way through Yoga Warrior 365 I have found myself more centered, more grounded, more focused and definitely pushed outside my comfort zone in a very, very different way. You are short-changing yourself if you blindly believe that it is less difficult because some other Type A person like me was enraptured with UY and didn't understand, didn't more deeply analyze YW365. Try it. You will find it is amazing.

Instructor Comments:
Rudy Mettia is down-to-earth, sometimes a little non-PC...and simply wonderful. He talks throughout the workout as he is instructing. Not too much. Sometimes humorously. His thoughtful instruction truly helps you deepen your practice and your awareness of your body.
