I really want to THANK U for this inibitable led class: your tone of voice, the rhythm of counting and your smile !!! U both, David and Jelena. I also want to thank your practitioners. I wish U all a peaceful day!!! 🧘🏼♀️🕉💓
One of the most longest, tiring, emotional and painful practices I’ve had in my entire life. And yet, one I will be the most grateful for. I have learned many lessons from this singular session, and I truly appreciate you both for doing what you do. Please never stop and continue touching the lives of others like how you have. Namaste. Sending you blessings
Ashtanga is often called yoga therapy, yes it is hard and I use it as part of my shadow because it brings up trauma and fears.
Why do you force yourself into painful poses? I do not get that. Yoga is a pleasent walk not meant to hurt you.
i dont know if she meant as in emotionally painful, because personally it has been emotionally painful. instead of painful i would use challenging and or uncomfortable. the practice shouldn’t be painful but at one point it will be uncomfortable as are many events in our lives. i agree u shouldnt force yourself into poses but with continued and dedicated practice you might be able to do them one day.
I don’t have an Ashtanga studio anywhere near me, which is so unfortunate. I practice at home now because the studios I have attended leave me wanting more. These videos are what opened my practice up to exactly what I was searching for physically AND mentally/spiritually. My dedication and discipline to my practice has been strengthened 10 fold. I practice 5-6 days a week and start my day with this practice.
This yoga style has transformed my life, and I sincerely hope one day I will be able to make the journey to mysore.
I am grateful for this video and hope to practice in person with Jelena and David!
🙏🏼💜✨Namaste ✨💜🙏🏼
Thank you so much for wonderful video ❤️I have started Ashtanga month back and falling love into this❤️All your videos are very helpful! I wish I can meet you guys in person 😊I’m in LA so please let us know if you guys coming here 😊
Thank you SO much for posting this online. As a beginner, I am learning so much from your pointers and feel like I will continue to on my progression towards the harder poses and more frequent practice. This video has brought me so much joy and calmness and it is wonderful to know I am practicing with many others despite being in my living room. ✌🏻🌹
Hi Yelena and David, after years of not practicing, today I came back to my mat and was so happy to have you lead. Love the new studio!
You are awesome, namaste from Croatia ❤
Wow beautifully done n explained Ashtanga yoga.. thankyou
I was so happy to wake up to a new “D&J” video. Full, Led Primary Series in 1hr, 16 min… Perfect! Many Thanks.❤
Omg…it’s 10 pm in Thailand right now and I want to be on the mat right after I saw the notification 😍😍😍thank you for sharing the practice…you two are my favorite people always xoxo ☮️
It is truly amazing how much more motivated I am to do a 75-minute practice than a 90-minute one (-: THANK YOU for allowing me to keep up my ashtanga practice. I have a toddler and a baby and we moved far away from my old yoga studio, so traditional mysore opportunities are harder to come by these days--I am so grateful for your excellent cues and your embodiment of all the virtues of the practice!
Amazing... I practised ashtanga 8 yrs back and lost touch as we changed surroundings and situations. This is the first time it reminded me of my practice and first time carried through than my previous futile trials of getting the vigor and motivation back. Thanks gurus, the way you explain and maintain the tempo.
Just stop by here, hv to tell tht ur class is amazing super, the. Participants are powerfull people, -greetings from Europe -
Loved every single second of it. This was so insightful and helpful! Thank you so much for sharing!❤
That was fantastic. Thank you so much for your gift. Some cues I've never had before really made me think and adjust.
Wow! I can practice this every single day... Thank you so much for this practice....
Looking forward for more💕🙏
Absolutely brilliant, thank you so much David & Jelena, I can't go regularly to classes but this is an absolute God send...beautifully delivered.
Much gratitude for this practice. You can really sense the spirit of yoga with David & Jelena. A couple of times I had tears of joy and gratitude. Cheers to the teachers. I'll be back for more :)

Beautiful class!!! Thank you very much! My body is not flexible. I started doing this class and I loved it. I couldn't finish but I will.Wonderful class.🙏
Thank you very much for sharing and all the tips 🙏
Thank you! All those helpful tips really enhanced my practice today! Much appreciated ❤
This is great to see other students practicing! Through your videos, I’ve been practicing solo in my small town up to half primary over the last year. Yesterday I got to take a led class in a city of full primary! It used to seem so far off but it’s become accessible for me! Excited to add these new postures to my practice!
This makes me want to get into ashtanga so much. So inspiring💫
I loved the way you instruct saying the words during the poses. It is one of my best yoga practice but at the same time never felt enough to bring flexibility in to my body. I can't do all poses as they all are doing. Never enough practicing. Thank you ❤
❤ I love your classes and tips and videos! ❤
I must say it's a very authentic practice session ❤❤. I can definitely vouch for that as I also practice Ashtanga yoga and an Indian 😍😍🥰🥰.
Oh I`m amazed,, that is the hammer ! That are not beginners. : ) Very beautiful asanas and inspiration for me to get better. Thank you.
Thanks David and Jelena😊 I am starting to practice this again, not everyday, but most of the days. It was bad and good experience: some days are Feeling great, but some are pain ; some are improving; others are not... I guess is the practice all about. Thanks so much for your leading practice. It becomes my daily ritual❤ namaste 🙏☘️
I came to practice standings only because I felt a little tired today but Davids motivating voice made me do the whole practice and it was great fun. Thanks for that! :)
Very good teaching and nice energy from all the students
Great cues. I had a great time practising with you. Thank you so much❤
I’m becoming better because of you, physically in asanas, emotionally and mentally too.
Thanks guys, good to have this to refer to when I am in the mood for a led session.
I have been waiting for this 🎊 thank you sooo much 🙏🏽 cannot contain my excitement 😊 Namaste 🪷
🙏 Thanks for a wonderful class!🙂
Thank you so much for posting this video, it's a pleasure to practice with you and the cues are very good reminders! Blessings from Paris!
Thank you David and Jelena for this! I love how you manage to squeeze in so many pointers for each pose! Hugely helpful.

I had the pleasure of coming from Prince Edward Island to your studio in Toronto - I learned so much! While I didn't get to meet you, I truly enjoyed this video and the guiding words. Thank you for this wonderful practice.
It's very effective starting to chant for Maharshi Patanjali for his yoga sutras from which we are benefitted....
Thank you so much for my last primary of 2023. Have a great 2024!
