About This Class
This dynamic 60-minute Power Yoga flow is structured around three building-block warm-up sequences that progressively layer movement and challenge. Beginning with child's pose and breath-setting, Bryan moves students through classical Sun Salutation A, then B (adding chair pose and crescent lunges), and finally Surya Namaskar C — a less common sequence incorporating standing side bends, twisted crescent lunge, and lizard-style elbow-to-floor hip openers. The sequences are repeated multiple times with increasing fluidity, functioning as a sustained cardiovascular and strength challenge. The second half transitions into deep, sustained floor work: lizard pose, half splits / Hanumanasana (front splits exploration), supine spinal twists, a wide-legged seated forward fold, and a reclined quadriceps stretch. One-handed downward dog and side plank variations add balance and shoulder work. Throughout, Bryan emphasizes breath as the primary tool for focus, relaxation, and pacing — framing yoga as a moving meditation. Modifications (knees down, skipping push-ups, using fingertips) are offered constantly. The class closes with a long savasana and an invitation to let the breath become natural. Ideal for practitioners who want a sweaty, full-body flow that is also deeply mindful and adaptable.

A very moderate class based on the C class warm up, build up to the splits and the splits. Thanks, Bryan! Definitely will do it again ❤️

Really tough to hear, and I had the volume cranked all the way up.

Great, strong class! Sound quality was clear. I could hear breathing but it doesn’t bother me.

Really great class. Looking at the date of this livestream, I’m very grateful to all at Power Yoga for keeping me moving on the mat over the past 5 years or so and in particular the last two years.

Sound was great nice and clear. I could hear some breathing but it was just like being in an in person class. I don’t feel like it was distracting at all

I love LOVE this class! It has three wonderful, complete and elegant flows at the beginning, and ends in deep stretches and a surprise. It really has everything. I remember doing the third sequence years ago with Bryan but could not find it any more – so here it is again. Goes straight into favourites! Namaste, Bryan!

This is a great flow and aptly named STRONG – one needs a lot of strong will and muscle to get through this -not for the faint of heart or those who aren’t able to flex a humble muscle to to surrender when one can’t keep up. I surrendered here and there and laughed at the “find your own sweet spot between too much and not enough” because I thought, well I found a lot of those too much spots LOL. Worth every minute -and a great emotional release came from the deep stretches in crescent lunge and accompanying variations. THANK YOU!

Hi. Thank you for continuing to guide us in our yoga practice especially in the midst of this global pandemic. I think I can safely say that the practice you lead is likewise global since I am accessing this from the Philippines ?. I am grateful for these online classes since I found them to be very helpful especially during these challenging times. I have only tried the past livestreams twice. The sound quality was good in both classes. I could sometimes hear the breathing of the others but for me, it wasn’t bothersome
