Gabrielle,

Can you provide approximate times for the pose holds, beginning to end, so I can continue classes at home.

Thanks,

Shelley P

Hello everyone

Thanks Shelley for the question.
I am just working on a comprehensive answer for you, to post somewhere convenient.

Please stay tuned and watch this space!

Namaste

Hi everyone - Gabrielle has cracked the whip and made me elevate the priority of this answer.

So I thought I’d exceed her expectations (and hopefully yours!) by publishing her full pose timing table AND a free pdf to download and print.

You can get them both here:

Hot Yoga Pose Timings
Please let me know if you have any issues downloading or opening it.

(Note: You will need Adobe reader software to view and print the pdf. You can get it free at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html)

Cheers!

Robert

Hi Y’all

I thought I would add in a word or 2 about the timings.
You will notice and probably wonder why there is such a wide range of times for some of the poses.

Well, it is for this reason. Each class I teach unfolds in a slightly different way. Having longer timings on some poses one class and sometimes shorter on those same poses in another. For me it boils down to the needs and the flow of that unique class.

If there is a range then always do the minimum.
And generally you start timing when you are in the pose. Starting your timing as you slowly enter may be one way (albeit unconscious) you have learned to procrastinate. Be efficient and then you will get maximum time in each pose.

Have fun!
Namaste
