Hi Sarah, thanks for class! It was fun and sweaty : ) only thing for me was during the kneeling part my knees hurt when we leaned back into a seat. My knees can be sensitive but I usually don’t have a problem with them kneeling, and have no problem sitting comfortably with my hips between my heels (As in hero’s pose in yoga) but this just didn’t feel good at all. Any recommendations on ways to modify so that it doesn’t pull on my knees? Thanks again!

second day of challenge and loving it.  Thanks Sarah!
Hi Allana KD,  Thank you for your message and I am so sorry I missed responding to your note.   YES.  The thigh stretch variation in this class can be tricky.  Without seeing you move, it is difficult to know the best cue or modification to offer.  BUT most often, I find that people are not supporting the legs well enough.  The pelvis should be moving in direction of a posterior tilt.  Abs and Hamstrings very active.  Whether you are leaning back(Thigh Stretch) or sitting on heels, Abs and hamstrings need to be involved.  Softening gluts and waking up adductors may help too:) Finally, while this a a powerful move, the legs need to move with ease...Yes the quads are working, but also in a range of motion that requires flexibility.  Hope this helps!! (again...apologies for the delay) Take care:) 
yay Serena S! Enjoy and  keep me posted!!

So enjoyed Day 2.  Wonderful creative and challenging work out.  The strapless short box work was challenging on one side which I knew it would be.  Now something to work toward improving.
