I signed up to get moving after being laid up with a virus for 5 days. The session was really invigorating - thank you Paul! Especially for encouraging us to only go as far as we could and to take breaks in child's pose, which I needed to do a couple of times. The mountain poses are great, really helped with my focus and resilience in getting back on my feet for the rest of the day. The core work out was really good too.
I can only come for the last half hour
