Sugarcane has always been my favorite pose, but neither dancer nor the quad stretch in lizard have ever felt right. This practice made those two feel both challenging and comfortable in my body. And I loved how we started moving right away. Thank you!

I never knew a class could be challenging yet so sweet at the same time. As others have noticed, this preparation really made all the difference, and I was able to do sugarcane for the first time ever. I leave this class smiling. Thanks so much Andrea, you are a truly gifted teacher.
