[@darbyrosengren]

This is a wonderful introduction to Ashtanga. I usually do a Fightmaster Hatha yoga each day but it's nice to mix it up. I like to think I am honoring Lesley's spirit by showing up on my yoga mat each day.

[@yzmazamani7283]

This practice has inspired me to embark on Ashtanga journey. Thank you for the love and inspiration, Lesley. Rest in peace. I am forever grateful to you. You were wonderful. 😭❤🙏

[@mitchells8360]

This is the first video that got me into practicing with Lesley. Thank you so much Lesley for your amazing offerings and how you have impacted my practice. You will be missed greatly. Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.

[@darbyrosengren]

What a great way to honor Lesley, Mitchell, with this new comment. Thank you.

[@hopegervais1407]

Rest easy Leslie. I have done this yoga video and another longer Ashtanga video of yours off and on for many years. I'm just coming back to my practice now after having a baby. Sad to hear of your passing, thank you for everything you did and everyone you inspired.

[@patrycjaszymanska9752]

I love coming back to this class. Lesley, you've inspired me to step on a yoga path. Forever in my heart!❤

[@2SweetMomma]

I just discovered Lesley passed away a few weeks ago and I'm so sorry for your loss Duke. I can't imagine what you and your kids are going through right now. I've been struggling with being in shape this year and I committed myself to do yoga every day. When I realized Lesley had passed, I promised myself to go back to you and her first video and start my journey there. Thinking of her light and spirit every day will be such an honor for me.

[@edinasejdic1606]

Omg i didn't know she passed away! So sad 😔.

[@karencacal5313]

Sad to know of Leslie's passing . I've been using her video for my daily yoga practice for years. Thank you for the inspiration, Leslie. May you rejoice in God's kingdom. 🙏🏻🎈

[@danfabbro]

I wanted to write to thank you for your video, it has been one of the greatest tools to combat anxiety, to balance myself and to link my spirit to my body. Sometimes daily, sometimes years apart, but a constant. I discover now of your passing. May you rest in peace, thank you for giving me so much peace. I send you all my love, and wish you happiness wherever you may be. Thank you and bless your spirit.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you Thomas! I know that teaching is wonderful but it's also so nice to have our own practices as teachers! I'm so honored that you choose to practice with me!

[@andreahauck5844]

I started this class after I finished the 90 days because I love ashtanga yoga! The Sanskrit was also a bit confusing for me at the beginning, but because I knew most of the poses I could manage it! Bit I did like the quite music behind, very relaxing! Thanks for this nice short class!

[@JamesSRobson]

That was good. Working up to the 90 day challenge again. Planning is everything until habit means you can do it anywhere. And without injury. Thanks again.

[@srinidhimv9893]

I don't feel like she's no more... She's always inspiring

[@sunnysol9873]

I remember finding this video YEARS ago and not being able to keep up. I was a yoga baby then. I hadn't really known the practice yet. A few years later and with a regular practice, I re-opened it, and different feelings arise. Maybe not the best ones for yoga. I feel pride and accomplishment nonetheless. Thank you for sharing your practice with us. I enjoyed this video much more now today, and will probably enjoy it even more in a month or a year's time.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Sunny Sol thank you very much for your message. I think it's wonderful to be able to feel the changes in our bodies from our regular practice. Keep up the good work!! xx

[@jasminarthur]

yesterday i did six minutes... today i did 20... tomorrow i'm going for the whole video! thank you (:

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Jasmin Patricia Awesome!!!! i love that you're continuing to add more each day! :-)

[@miavandermeer77]

Same! I have done only hatha beginner before, but I need this faster pace, and I love the sanskrit actually. Today 22, tomorrow I will also finish it!

[@liveride59]

This Ashtanga 30min intro and a couple other of your 2012~2015 beginner videos have been my go to Yoga workouts for a few months now. They fit my pace, athletic ability, timeframe, breathing rhythm, and expectations of benefits. I haven't mastered the Crow and Headstand, but there's still enough I can do to make my body feel stronger, more flexible and rejuvenated. I wish I'd been doing this for years. Thank you for making Yoga practice so accessible.

[@yaishavargas-amysticwriter2764]

Thank you for leaving this video. 💖 I am grateful for your voice and presence. Sending you my gratitude and kindness to the other side. Forever grateful.

[@angelzz1862]

Dec 2023 and still coming to this vid❤

[@agotinis]

I have searched so many yoga videos here on youtube and I didnt find any, that would suit me. And then I found your videos! Thank You for the quality. From now on, I will do every one of them!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

agotinis Awesome!! I'm so glad you found us!! Welcome to our online yoga community! xx

[@ginelaszalai770]

That was great Lesley 🤗 thanks

[@HeatherRiceMusic]

fabulous class!!!!!! Can't thank you enough Lesley!!

[@mszarajane]

One of my favorite videos on KZbin. Thank you for keeping it simple!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

:)

[@liveride59]

Still my all time favorite, efficient and challenging go-to beginner Yoga practice. I like the tranquil studio and audio instruction and even the music interruptions are more like friendly indicators for where I am in the workout. It's all good.

[@Bee.Crossing]

Thank you for another beautiful class Lesley. The flow and hearing the Sanskrit really brought something special together. Have a lovely day. Namaste xxx

[@Bee.Crossing]

🙏

[@catherinedolan2683]

Just what i was looking for, simple and traditional and not too long a routine. I used to do 90min classes years ago but fitting this in as a busy mum is actually manageable. Thank you

[@Fightmasteryoga]

So glad it works for you :)

[@alainesimone6838]

Oh Lesley Fightmaster you are a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing these practices, I recommend your videos to everyone. Namaste

[@Fightmasteryoga]

alaine valent thank you so much!! You're so sweet! xoxo

[@gatinawabustos]

Lesley, great videos, i love your play list, thank you, peace

[@rookxyz]

very much enjoyed this practice. I say this after a year of all your other workouts. A year ago Ashtanga practice seemed just too difficult for me, now I enjoy the five breath holding the asana. Thank you.

[@autumnblossom7070]

I enjoyed this into class, I didn't feel that this pace was too fast. Thanks for sharing this with us Lesley.

[@lorenzomaceiras]

Very, very beautiful and useful video. I play it in my iPad for may daily practice 6/7. I love it !!! Thank you very much, Lesley. Namasté.

[@pix732]

Thank you for all your great videos. You are inspiration to me. Namaste

[@Fightmasteryoga]

pix732 Thank you! You're so sweet!!

[@smwheeler09]

I'm not even a beginner to yoga and this video was too fast for me to follow along. Otherwise it was very good in all other aspects.

[@jesslynn0520]

Thank you so much for this video! I have been looking for something like to practice to at home!!

[@laurahirt6731]

Wonderful practice. Thank you so much for posting on KZbin. 🙏

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Laura Hirt thank you so much!! :-)

[@Amy-is6cf]

This is exactly what I was looking for! All Ashtanga yoga poses in 1 video..perfect! :)

[@amberjimenez5386]

This is a great challenging sequence!!

[@Pww642]

This is a great intro to ashtanga's primary series, with a lot of the more intimidating poses omitted. It's always interesting to see what teachers take out when they're trying to make the practice more accessible to beginners. Janu B for sure! They can learn where that heel goes in the next video....

[@barmalini]

I just found out that Leslie had left us about a year ago. And I only found this video a couple of days ago. Thank you Leslie, even though you have moved on along the eternal path, having completed your Earthly task, your love and care stays with us. Now I will think of you every time I get on my yoga mat. And I promise that I will do this practice in your honour every day for at least one month. Let this become my little gesture of gratitude to you. May God bless your family, all your friends and loved ones, and may He guide of you on your further journey as you had guided us. Thank you, Leslie.

[@madhatter6964]

Fightmaster Yoga I love your videos and me and my mom love doing them

[@MZONE3D]

Fightmaster Yoga As a beginner, it's very difficult to follow with lack of clear description, foreign words, and not being able to see the screen while performing.

[@Odrayeful]

Hi Lesley ! Very happy to have found your videos, they're GREAT! Thaaanks from France !

[@Odrayeful]

If one day you manage to come to Paris, I would be more than glad to show around my city after all the hours I spent in front of your videos :-).

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Hi trefot2005, because of your neck surgery, I recommend skipping the shoulder stand and headstand. For the shoulder stand, keep your low back and hips on the floor and lift your legs (you can also put your legs against a wall this way, called viparita karani pose). There are many of the same good benefits to practicing this pose instead of shoulder stand. For headstand, you can clasp your hands, forearms on the floor, shoulders no wider than the elbows, take dolphin pose with head off the floor

[@katrinasf7022]

I love all of your videos. I bounced back so quickly and felt myself getting stronger each day. The holiday season was a long one so coming home after work and popping on your videos got me back on track. Thank you so much for your kind words and gentle guidance.

[@elyam2560]

Thank you Lesley so much ! This the best Yoga workout I have found in KZbin!!! You are doing so smoothly and effortlessly and you have a such a positive energy! It's really inspiring!

[@jj5jj5]

Wonderful practice - thank you! One thing that was a challenge was following the flow of the breath and the pace of the practice. Without hearing your breathing, I found myself often getting caught halfway through a breath as you moved on.

[@user-he4lj5wl7w]

This is the best primary series video i have seen. Thank you.

[@yogaathome4386]

Thank you so much for your inspiration, I miss you 😔

[@ranjanirajakaruna3917]

The yoga episode was excellent. I am a beginner and followed the 1st 15 minutes and hope to follow the full episode later. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@milaignatova7182]

Hello Leslie. I tried this class again. It felt amazing. I noticed the change in your style of leading a class and I might say that you really did a great job. Thanks for being such a great and devoted teacher! Namaste!

[@bibichaparro27]

Thank you so much! I loved the pace and the instructions... I need to practice a lot... Will use this video to train in the series.... Lots of blessings and love, thank you for sharing....

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Bibiana Chaparro thank you for watching! xoxoxo

[@cranky1chick]

I have a ton of yoga DVDs, but this is the best intro to ashtanga that I've ever found and done. I'm also working my way through your 90 Day, Lesley, and just wanted to say thank you.

[@amandanguyen6353]

Thank you for many precious yoga video! I really love it !

[@mracy9092]

This is such a fantastic video. I'm American but I live in Korea and take yoga classes in Korean. I love my Ashtanga class, but I can't take classes at the studio right now, so this is a welcome substitute for at home practice! I also love the Sanskrit. It reminds me of my classes in all Korean, which has become very relaxing for me. Yoga videos with too much English get really distracting and take away from my inner focus. So thank you Lesley!!! Please keep'em coming!

[@Bee.Crossing]

Hi Lesley, my foot is healed and I am back in the game. ☺️ This is a perfect class after my first week into it. ☺️ I love this intro xxxx

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Debz Roberts Awesome Debz so glad your foot is better :) XOXOXO

[@marilizeblignaut2804]

Hi! I think I have said this before, but I really really loved this video! . :) A class on the complete primary series would be awesome! Thanks again! :)

[@angryowl5972]

I loved the speed! Most other classes are way too slow for me. This was a little complicated for a beginner but it's a great daily practice to try and do until you master the whole thing!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! Yes, this practice definitely moves and it is challenging for a beginner but repetition is the key!! Keep doing your best and you'll have it down in no time. :-)

[@amyanderson195]

I absolutely loved this! I am in awe and inspired to study Ashtanga. Just lovely! Thank you!

[@rosibroom]

Very challenging for newbies; I aspire to one day do these moves as gracefully as you! Thank you for posting this :)

[@rosibroom]

Today I kept up until the end! I love this class!

[@TheMariejulie]

Amazing little Ashtanga sequence! I really appreciate, that you used the traditional Mantra as a opener and mind cleanser for the yoga practice. Thank you 🌞

[@HCmadzia]

Lesley it was my first yoga class after 1 year break. Thank you so much! I love yoga again :)

[@tonyfox5331]

Lesley, I echo other comments about restoring the original sound to this video. This was the first of your videos that I watched and it remains my favourite. When I repeat the routine I can measure the progress I've made. And there really is something magical about the continuity provided by the music and the way it transitions into the savasana at the end. Thank you.

[@Vennegoor10]

Just learning, and this is great. Have donated as a thank you.

[@tabithaplaisance1571]

Wow thank you I really enjoy this. I've been looking for something a little more, looking to step up my yoga a little bit, dive into it a little deeper and I felt like this met my needs thanks again.

[@ahopelto]

really good but at 30:00 an youtube ad started so i got a little frustated..great class.. have not been doing yoga for 2 years and now I did and my body feels really good now. Will repeat this one. Thank you very much!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

ahopelto I'm so sorry. I know....we don't have any control over the KZbin ads on this one because we put music on it. It's the first one we did, so we didn't know about the copyright issues. Now KZbin can put as many ads on it as they want :-( We considered taking it down...we might still do so if there are lots of complaints about the ads.

[@DeAnnaEsler]

Fightmaster Yoga I was so upset and worried about the ads. I absolutely love doing this class during travel and the ads really kill the vibe. Will ads be added to any of the other videos?

[@MarqueritteClasquin]

Hi there what a great class this was after doing all of your other classes I am going to try the Ashtanga I hope you have some more. I am still at it everyday and I have said it before and I will say it again and again but you have changed my life and you are definately my earth angel. Namaste

[@vaishnavpriti]

wonderful video! thanks!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Priti Vaishnav Thank you!! :-)

[@priyakrishnan4118]

this is so lovely and such an awesome challenge after having done some beginner videos for a while!

[@AimSoMi]

I started a yoga class 3 months ago and now that I have found your videos I can practice at home more easily! Love your channel :) There is still such a long way to go but I see progress which is very encouraging... Yoga is changing my body and my mind! Thank you :)

[@natali_spirit]

Thank you for yourself 🙏

[@luvaddictXO]

I thank you so much for this! I play a rough, full-contact sport and this is just what my body needed to feel better today. I would love to do this every morning before work!

[@PremiumDriedFruit]

I love this! Both as a concept and the way it was executed. Ashtanga yoga is a vigorous practice, and I feel like this is an honest stepping stone toward introducing students to the full primary series. No form of Ashtanga Yoga can be called "easy", but kudos to you for offering students an access point into the series. -Gabe

[@Jennifer-yc9tb]

Great practice! Loved the pace and music. Thank you!

[@letenciodedeus3048]

Thank you. This very short but complete.

[@stephenk2514]

I did this workout this morning and really enjoyed it.Thank you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+stephenk2514 wonderful!

[@mamacitalarita]

Such a great 30 min version of Ashtanga that I can incorporate into my day when I don't have time to make it to class! Love your guidance, music and energy. Namaste :)

[@abbybaby5]

That's what I did first and it didn't work and then I messaged you but then I tried again and it worked :) That's such a neat idea, the donation. You are offering us a beautiful gift, so that everyone, those who can and can't afford it can enjoy it and reap its benefits. I hope that more people who can afford donate (so that this gift can continue to be sustained for everyone to enjoy). Thank you for relying on our generosity.

[@tomergilad]

thank you! i was enjoing very much the slow viniyasa as i was looking how to make the pactice easier for my begginer students. big hug from israel :-)

[@India123.]

Thank you for sharing this. I have been out of practice with Ashtanga for a long time so this was really good basics to get back into it. It would be awesome if you can post an hour long Ashtanga series :).

[@villolelkes8544]

***** Hi Lesley, thank you for making this video. I did this practice in the morning since I attended some beginner ashtanga classes in the past. It wasn't easy to follow some poses and I'm nowhere near making the transitions but following your advice to stop when necessary worked and I enjoyed the class. It made me sweat too, the breathing really heats the body up. I hope it is ok that I used a yoga strap for some poses. The only problem I had was that by the end of the class my lower back was hurting and got stiff, essentially this is why I stopped the ashtanga classes in the past. I will do your evening yoga class later, hopefully that will help. Would you consider filming an ashtanga class that breaks down the sequence, so beginners can understand and do this practice? Thank you for your loving practice. Namaste

[@meganethrom7962]

This is exactly what I needed! I've been trying to do ashtanga on my own on mornings when it's too cold/snowy for running and I can't make it to class. I tried going through the ashtanga practice on my own but really missed the calming voice of my favorite yogi instructor- you're a great substitute!

[@Jeolas1]

Wonderful video! A few of the previous comments really bother me, though. This is a FREE instruction video which EVERYBODY has access to. Why is it that some people feel entitled to criticise the video on the grounds that it is too [fill in blank] FOR THEM, or that it offers too little [fill in blank] to make it practicable for THEM??? It's beautifully, lovingly done, and it's free! If it doesn't meet YOUR personal needs just move on to a different one; for other people it's perfectly suited! - Thanks, Lesley, for making the video, and for offering it here for free!

[@Jeolas1]

You're very welcome!!!

[@mattpatt]

That's how feedback works. Specifically though, I feel clickbaited by the use of the word "intro".

[@marybosak3330]

This is my very favorite Lesley class ❤️ 🙏

[@joseantoniosalinasvega7956]

Nice and soft flow, i could not do all but i enjoyed a lot, i listen to my body and accept my limitations, thanks for sharing, namaste.

[@khanhnhinguyen2476]

What a nice video! Thank you very much.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you so so much! I really appreciate your donation! :-)

[@baaayourallsheep]

Thank you so much for this wonderful class. I am slowly reintegrating back into this practice after being absent from it for about 10 years. I am recovering from injuries and your gentleness and reminder to take it slow is really helpful as I am basically starting all over. I have to remember that what I once could do with ease will now take patience and practice. I'll be using this daily, thank you so much. You've made a difference in my life and I'm so very grateful!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you so much for your sweet message, Rebecca. I'm so glad you're back on your mat!! If you want to eventually add more variety to your practice, go to fightmasteryoga.com and click on "Today's Yoga Class" for different classes every day. xoxo

short and effective, use it for daily practice when im crunched for time. This is excellent!! Thank you!

[@jianfu8652]

Thanks for the free upload! Namaste, OM.

[@mlalfing]

Hey! was a new practice for me, and totally not on that level and was sp quick for me, it felt like a real workout.. really liked your voice too.. If I will get better in yoga I will defiantly come back to your practice!

[@debramikus7340]

This is a great practice! Thank you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Debra Mikus Thank you so much!! :-)

[@AleciaRepp]

Thank you for this yoga flow! I have just been getting into Ashtanga Yoga and this is my fav style of them all. Your class was well lead thank you! The shivasana is lovely too how it fades out with amazing music.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

ARINPARADISE Thank you so much!! Yes, I love the Ashtanga practice too!!! :-)

[@muffin0504]

I really like this class, especially since it's a bit more fast-paced, but all of your videos have been immense so far. I need to modify them a bit right now, because I'm 14 weeks pregnant, but I prefer them over other prenatal yoga videos I've found on youtube, as I'm still able to follow yours quite well!

[@PolinaVeda]

You are so beautiful and graceful! Thank you for your work!

[@albinodino3606]

Thank you for posting this! I've just started getting into ashtanga yoga and your video was absolutely perfect for me.
