This is the first time I did yoga at this site, and I will be back here and to this practice, my hips and lower back feel great and it was such a nice savasana.

I've been inactive for the better part of a year due to Cancer, and my lower body (especially) is one big, stiff knot. This class is amazing - I end each day with it now, and am already gaining my flexibility back after doing the session daily for a week. Truly amazing!

Thanks David!!!

I've been doing yoga lessons for a while, but I can't get to them every day so I was looking for some online instruction. This lesson was truly outstanding and I'll definately be returning to the site!

This video is what I need to regain some flexibility after straining my lower back about a year and a half ago. Since then I have felt a tightening in areas that were previously quite flexible. My strength training suffered as well, which just exacerbated the tightening.

This might very well be the thing I need to bring it back. I'll be practising this routine a lot in the coming weeks. Thank you!
