I would just like to say that I was thoroughly inspired by the demonstration that Ana gave. I have watched it four times so far. You could feel the the sense of awe and appreciation from the crowd even in the video. I am curious as to who the band was that she used, the second track was especially good. Would anybody be familiar with them? Thanks

This demo of love from Ana is just amazing! I saw her do a similar demo at the conference last May and am still in awe of her strength and joy in yoga. Thank you Ana and YJ for sharing.

Wow, that was amazing. I have watched the video clip several times and also shared the viewing with some of my colleagues. We are still in awe of Ana's demonstration of the asanas. The sound track blends nicely with the sequence of the asanas. A very big thank you to Ana Forrest and the Yoga Journal.

Inspiring is a good word.

At the end of the video-clip I had tears coming up so emotionally touched I was by Ana's way of spreading magic which brought back all these memories from my FTT '04 in L.A. Living in Berlin it takes a lot of discipline to stay connected to her spirit and circle - so Yoga Journal THANK YOU SO MUCH for supporting and THANK YOU Ana for visiting Berlin in November '06. Namaste, Sonja

Sorry - but this is not my idea of inspiring yoga.
Instead, it comes across as exhibition gymnastics - impressive, but not spiritual.
The music is a distraction, almost like theatre.
Not for me.

Beautiful, inspiring and motivating. I would also love to know about the music.
Thank you for sharing this...I can't stop watching it!
