David, my 5.30 am students love your sessions, we have done this one often because it is so effective and beneficial. Your style of teaching is excellent, well paced, clear instructions. Easy to do with eyes closed.
I come back to this class again and again because of how simple and supported it is. It's such a lovely way to end a day.

I dont how many times ive done this class over the years , but its the best maintainence anyone could wish for . The birds in the background always make me smile 😃
Love everything about this class. Pace, place, and Procyshyn.
Thank you David! I love this class. It was very easy to follow for a first time. I love that the verbal instruction is slightly ahead of the visual practice. In this way, if I am confused and seek a visual queue, I can look to screen and see you movements to get me in the right position. Focusing on breath and lengthening, I often close my eyes during practice. This class format allows me to follow along without having to rewind. Beautifully designed class.
David your work is so clear and useful, you are so valuable. In a short time since finding this site, you have deepened/broadened my ongoing practice and also given me back my lower back. The music in the video is perfect, as is the lightness of the duck duck goose around you, ending with the great white oak. Thank you thank you. I am so glad I found your community.
I am a dancer, and my legs get really tight. This is my go to - I do this yoga routine regularity to maintain balance in my legs ensuring that my knees stay well tracked. Its also so grounding, at about ten minutes into the video, the chatter in my head just stops and I'm present again. Its such a blessing to be able to utilize this video again and again! Thank you, David!
Wowsa. That was grand. Deep stretches, excellent new direction, peace!
Really wonderful my back feels so much better! Thank you!! I forgot just how good this class is.
Such a great class for someone that does a lot of walking or running.
So wonderful... This is my third time doing this class and I can't believe how my body has improved physically and in strength, Not only that, it's hard to put into words but the whole body feeling is so beautiful during David's calm and precise guidance. The savasana at the end is absolutely blissful. I felt my entire body relaxed and weightless. Much love and gratitude to you for bringing so much joy to my yoga practise, on and off the mat!

Mmm, mmmm, mmm. I feel good!
I love the concept of this class, the body positioning and it’s calm presentation. But since I have had both of my knees replaced 13 years ago, I have been unable to sit in anything but an extremely loose cross legged position and even before knee replacement I was unable to sit on top of folded knees without a block. Even with a bolster or a block, I am unable to get even close to some of David’s positions. Am wondering if it will do more harm than good to try these poses given my limitations? I hope not, but am not clear on how to modify the poses to make them more accessible to me.
Hi Sharon. Thanks for sharing. You're right, this class doesn't offer modifications for the seated positions. If your knees hurt when sitting on your heels, is sitting cross-legged an option, on a block or folded blanket?
A long time favorite and go to
I have had trouble with a tight left hip and glute area for the past couple of weeks. I keep coming back to this session for a great relief. always does the trick.
This is the class that convinced me that David is a muscle wizard.
Yes!
Thanks David. My hips, legs and back feel awesome! Really nice savasana at the end of this one too. Blissful.
David is one of my favorite teachers. Not just on this website, but in the universe. Kind, gentle, and stress free. Thank you!
Great!
My second time with this class and its just fab for releasing all those tight muscles. Thank you David!
A whole body and mind changing sequence. Thank you so much David, my best ‘go to’ class.
Wonderful for flight attendants, pilots, anyone in the travel industry.
You're the best, Thanks!
I have been doing this video for many years! It is always a good one to fall back to when I feel that I need special attention to my hips and lower back. It is a wonderfully gentle way to take special care of your body.
me too
This session is a wonderful way to get back into yoga. It feels so good and is a gentle way to begin the journey to better health
This session has become my “go to” for back pain. It’s been a game changer for my back health. Thank you!
F*** yes, that last twist sequence was deep and delicious. Struggling with a lot of sitting and work stress and holding a lot of tension in my hips. Thank you for the stretch and release!
Splendid class, my body and mind feels so free after that. Thank you David.
beautiful, thank you so much. Loved the ducks doing their thing in the background too.
Been bothered with lower back pain and tight hips for a few days now and this was an incredible relief. Thank you for all your deep release classes, David!
Can someone tell me why I get network errors all the time doing classes? I am signed up for free subscription and am afraid to join if this is going to continue. I have changed passwords, etc.

Me too & on both sides of the world - Britain & Australia....MOST frustrating.
This is the best class for relieving lower back, hips and IT band pain that I have ever done. Thank you David.
I always feel relaxed after this video. Thank you
This is the best hip, lower back, and legs release I have ever done. Thank you David. It relieves a lot of my pain.
This is my favourite lower back yoga and the ultimate for releasing your lower back, hips and legs. I've been doing this class via the app regularly as it allows me to get out of bed in the mornings with less pain. Thank you David!
This is my Go-To for all things hip and low back. I practice my yoga mostly in the morning, but stretching at night after work and before bed is now pretty much mandatory for my body to feel its best. This session will definitely hit those hip flexors from all angles. I love this practice.
Wonderful class. I have done it before a few times, definitely a go to class. I don't usually like music but this track added to the meditative quality. Thank you
My legs feel like there 20 years old again! Thanks David.
wOW! first time with this class. I have very tight hips, I will be doing it again and again!!!
Thank you soooo much for your Do Yoga with me website. I do love it !!!!
My first class and it was just want I needed. Thank you David.
Low back and hip releases I've never experienced before!! Just what my body needed. I think I'm still releasing from my two [wonderful] pregnancies over the last six years! Thank you for your thorough offering. ~Elly
Fantastic!! hit every spot, will see if it causes more pain tonight when I sleep but very impressed!
A wonderful class to return to again and again. After the intense stretches of the left leg, it is remarkable how different the legs feel, one like a narrow reed and the right like a bulbous trunk. Then after the right leg stretches, all is well.
Thank you David, I was able to go that little bit deeper in breath, twists and length of holds today. I had a striking white sensation of heat through the final twists along my IT band. I was able to hold in this zone for just a little longer and it was intensely satisfying, deep and penetrating sensation I have backed out of before. Is this the kind of thing that I can expect as I become more adept and rhythmic with my yoga practice? Perhaps, it is. I wonder what toxins will be released today! Thanks again. Peace.
