Sooo good! Loved this little flow, even though it’s a drill, it was strong and opening. Loved

Thank you for this fiery chest opening and legs drill. It feels so good and sweaty at the same time. Will revisit this again. 🤍

I Don’t Have Time For Yoga pt. 3

Such a fun and creative flow! Thank you for the movement. And I did find it challenging to follow some transitions. Perhaps with more practice I’ll start to “know your voice” and style and can follow along seamlessly.

In The Flow

The queuing was a little fast for me. It made it hard to be able to coordinate between the movements and the breath work

Alexandra

This always feels amazing. Great release after a busy day of work and kids. The way this stretches muscles in the side/back body/hips is perfect. I like puppy figure four variation. Thank you Kayla !

Hello Hips, Hello Heart

My forward fold at the end was so compressed in the best way

Issie

Great class, struggled with compressing the legs from pyramid with hands on blocks but will work on it :) thanks again

This practice gave me so much awareness of how I move my body. As always, thank you for creating. ❤️

Twist focus 💕 Litle heavy long sequence on one leg, with all three variations of hand to big toe, and then figure 4 chair fold~ other than that a lovely class prepares you for a good day 😁

A bit tough on the wrists this one but otherwise a lovely flow

Lauren

Sydney

Fireball Flow

Jessi

Very lovely for those with healthy knees, that’s a must as the hole class is with weight on the knees. Soft yoga flow ❤️🙏

Melissa

Keep It Low Flow

After a long day of online meetings this was a bliss

Out of the Head & Into the Body

Was really nice! Just one thing - it says the practice goes 45 minutes while it's only 18... I was a bit confused it's already over 🙈

Midday Play

Perfect stretch after a day of snowboarding 🏂🏽👌🏼 it's only 19 min though and not 45 as stated.

Quick Stretch

It’s been a while since I’ve done Kayla’s longer classes or consistently doing yoga! Been doing mostly the “No time for yoga” series. I was really struggling (in and good way!) and felt how tight my body was but this class was great in getting me back to that lengthening/flexibility state again!

Dear Kayla, thank you from the bottom of my heart for this experience. Flows like this remind me why I do what I do: why I love yoga, why I keep moving, why i finally came to terms with my body, why I decided to learn to love it, why I give it the gift of yoga every day. Thank you for allowing me to move so freely yet lovingly, thank you for the creative movement, thank you for the grace. Am
I bekng overdramatic? Probably lol but I am grateful because the feelings felt are there and they are real 🤍

This yoga sequence makes my day better 🦄

Spinal Love

Loved this one!! Felt super yummy and thorough for such a short class

Molly

An amazing reminder for saying that we always have time for doing what we love ❤️ (ps: the preview in my case says 45 minutes but it’s 16)

Marta

I Don't Have Time for Yoga

Cady

Midday Reset

Beautiful 12 min snack. Perfect for pausing a busy work day.

Trini

This isn’t 45 minutes as it is stated on the main page. Otherwise great class, thanks!

huba

Quick and straight to it! Love it Kayla. Thank you!

Amanda

Midday Snack

The best class I have done with you so far. Challenging in a good way. Will come back to this one ❤️👌

Strong Sahasrara Chakra

You’ve always got what ai need. Intuitive movement has been my move lately. Not worrying about a sequence or challenging myself to much.
Just moving on my own how I’m feeling each day. This was perfect to keep that vibe rolling.  Thank you.

Ok this is one of my new favorites! I love the intuitive part. The body really tells you what it needs! A longer flow would be even better :) Amazing flow though. Thank you Kayla💚

Mariana

Strong Ajna Chakra

Lovely mix. Back bends are starting to feel good. I hope this trend continues because they usually feel so crunchy & intense. Thank you!

I’ve loved this class! I’d have wished it had been longer. ❤️

Strong Vishuddha Chakra

Lovin' the heat created throughout the class. For someone who doesn't sweat easily, this sequence squeezed some sweat out of me 😬

Laura

Strong Anahata Chakra

So grateful that I found you❤️☺️🙏 I am able to hold my pincha for the first time 💕💕💕

Thanya

Dolphin is such a doozer and pincha is still so tough for me. I was able to breathe a bit better and was a bit more stable this time around though. Progress over perfection. I love how I feel right now. Thank you!
