45-Minute Challenging Yoga Flow with Arm-Balance and Inversion Options

[@iamrandom2498]

After almost a year and a half of practicing, I FINALLY GOT MY FEET TO HOVER IN HEADSTAND!!! I do not care how the rest of my day goes, this has absolutely made it!

[@belsobekajogastudio1687]

Fun and creative as always. Don't listen to those who claim to know what real yoga is. If they did, they wouldn't feel the urge to criticise someone who shares so much positive energy with others. You inspire us to move. You give and you ask for nothing in exchange. If that's not yogic than I don't know what is. Thank you!

[@tcmontana4139]

Ah, I was soo pumped to see you uploaded and dropped everything. You’re so unique and such a gem in the yoga space-thanks for offering grounded, fun, and challenging flows. You’re a gift! ❤️

ahhhh yayyy a 45 minute class!!! really enjoyed how challenging yet relaxing/grounding this was. and i always appreciate how thorough you are with your instructions. i still don't know how to do a headstand and wish i could do a wide-legged headstand (or whatever you call the one that goes from wide leg to headstand?). would you consider doing a tutorial video? this was such a delicious practice, thank you nicole! you're a gem

[@margarett_b]

@@NicoleWild Arms being my weakest part..yeah, I had to modify some of these XD But I tried and will be trying as it definitely will help me strengthen my wrists, witch which I had issues for quite a few years already. All in all, a relatively short but fiery sequence (the main one) :D

[@linglin4]

Flow was excellent and felt great--another favorite of mine. Thanks, Nicole! One option if the microphone issue is still a problem is to record the voice after you make the video (and not to use a mic at all.) It does mean that it's twice as much work though since you'd have to do the class and then record the voiceover after on top of it.

[@NicoleWild]

Hi Ling! Thank you - yes this is definitely an option! I do have a new Microphone on the way. Crossing fingers that this will be the answer!

Thank you thank you thank you! Lovely to see you back with a new video - I am so excited! I was beginning to consider logging in to my never-used IG account just to ask you where you were and if everything was alright - in the light of your completely disappearing after starting the "September upload challenge" I was getting a bit worried! Saving this video for later and opting for 60 minutes this time but sooo looking forward to engaging with a new flow of yours!

I am so happy to see you again and sharing your always amazing flows!! I just have a question. Do you make up your flows as you go (on the spot), or do you pre-plan them? Either way, I love them all!! Thank you 🙏🏻💕🥰

[@NicoleWild]

Hi Francine! Great question. Some of both! I usually start teaching with a few specific poses or transitions in mind - and then I build from there while I'm teaching! However, sometimes I'll plan a whole class. And I've also started teaching without any idea of what I'd teach. Depends on the day!

Hi Nicole! The flow was lovely thank you, but the sound of the microphone it's a bit distracting :/

I find the beauty of Nicole’s flows to be her unique take on traditional vinyasa flows, etc. with the addition of funky transitions and athletic movements while remaining true to adding breath to movement.

[@NicoleWild]

Hi Mandy! I LOVE that there are so many teachers out there who teach different styles. I am certainly not trying to teach to everybody - and it's totally okay that you don't resonate with my flows. I hope you find the teachers that you love practicing with - as there are so many great ones out there. And thanks for giving it a shot!

@@GingeyintheBurgh So sweet Amy - thank you so much! All just meant to be playful and experimental.

[@elettranestola1583]

oh gosh what a complicated flow. super long sequences, i had to watch the screen continuously, weird transitions and high pace... not able to concentrate, breathe, focus in the practice. this is not yoga really, it s just a high intensity workout based on asanas. yoga is SO MUCH more than this.

[@NicoleWild]

Hi Elettra! I agree with you - that yoga is more than just this 45-minute sequence. Nobody is arguing that :) But there is a place in my practice for creative sequences that resonate with me + make my body feel good. And - that they're playful and FUN! I believe play is an incredibly important thing. I'm simply sharing from that place and I completely respect that my classes won't resonate with everyone!

[@zachary_ellis]

This video has unfortunately pushed me to search for another teacher due to the very intense audio disturbance which is not indicative of a peaceful morning practice, coupled with comments in other videos such as "I'm falling" or "I can't speak" which set a clumsy tone for my day and although very human errors I find quite unprofessional. Up until now I have enjoyed your work, I hope you take this advice onboard and continue to inspire other in the future in a more refined way.
