A Deep Release for the Shoulders and Neck

This class is really incredible, thank you very very much.

Thank you.

Still a hard class for me but the feeling of length and release at the end is so worth it. Thanks again David!

brilliant, my neck thanks you

thank you! i have injured my shoulder and took this slowly and i definitely feel a bit better. will keep repeating this class x

Great class, tough but rewarding, and my first time to manage a bind!! Only on the right side but that's such a big improvement for me :-)
Thank you so much. Namaste

Excellent class. It really lives up to its name.

Hi David, I have shoulder bursitis... do you have a class that can help with this?

I wouldn’t think some of these poses are for beginners……

This is an incredible class! Exactly what my neck and shoulders needed. Thank you David for your spot-on cueing and pacing.

I am recovering from a concussion and this routine is medicine for me. THANK YOU

When I did one of your older shoulder lessons, wow what a lesson - it released tightness in my shoulders that I had been working on for a fair while. So I knew that I was in for another treat. As always, your lessons are amazing. Instructions are always spot on and the pace perfect. Thank you.

Love this class. I have repeated it many times and tell all my friends to do this class. I always feel lots of relief through my upper body afterwards. This one and "deep release for the low back, hips and legs" are my two favourite when I am feeling tight and sore from sports and work.

These are some powerful stretches wow Working wonders after a long day behind the computer. Thank you David for the excellent guidance

This is exactly what I needed, thank you. I am recovering from a two-day migraine and had a lot of tension in my neck and shoulders. These stretches with your calm and thoughtful guidance made all the difference. Namaste.

I'm new to the yoga with me. Excellent class . Thank you.

Thank you for the class David! Maybe it is because you are male, but sometimes I find that you use the descriptive words in a way that makes me subconciously overdo things. For example when you say push or squeeze extensively I find myself doing it to an extent that I normally wouldn't. I enjoyed this class though, maybe it's just because I am not used to it.

with wind chill it was -30 outside the window I looked out as I did this familiar class. appreciated the bird sounds more than ever!

An excellent class. Thank you very much. Just what I needed! I've bookmarked it and will return to it in the months to come.

Perfect Christmas morning class. <3

Thank you for the release in my neck and shoulders...I feel so much better. Namaste

That felt amazing. Thank you so much. I will come back to this class regularly.

Love this class David!!! I have been doing this class for at least five years and it is my go-to class when I have tension in my upper back and neck. It always leaves me feeling refreshed, any small aches are totally gone and I feel HAPPY!!!! Thank you for this and all of your wonderful classes! And thank you for all you do for humanity!!!! (more than you know!!)

I have bookmarked this class and keep coming back after tiring week. What a great relief it always is!

This class is perfect with the calm and soothing voice of David :)

Great as usual David. Looking forward to moving on in this beginner to inter. program. I see there's lots of Melissa's ocean side restorative in this program and I will probably do those in the evening. Where the rest of the practices in this program I will do in the morning.

I felt great afterwards though it was a pretty hard beginner practice. I wish you gave more modification choices as I had to make up my own which was fine since I am not a true beginner I knew what to do to take care of myself.

Absolutely wonderful!
David's hip and back relaese classes are the best therapies for me! Bookmarked -

gracias,gracias David just what I needed.Thanks

Some great stretches for the shoulders and neck, just what I needed today.
Thank you David, I love your style of teaching.
As a side note, there are a couple of downward dogs but other than that no standing poses in this class.

Thanks David. I think Ill move into a nice restorative practice now on this rainy day.

I've been a yoga teacher for the best part of 10 years and been practicing for almost 20.

This is far and away the best sequence for neck and shoulder I have done.

Thank you.

This is an amazing neck and shoulder release class - perfect after a day of zoom meetings! Thanks David!

The best shoulder/neck stretch sequence I've ever experienced! Thank you David!

This is the best release/relief I’ve ever had for my extremely tight shoulders and neck. I feel like a new person after doing this!

I found this challenging at times, as my shoulders and upper back are so tight the muscles get tired really quickly, but I really appreciated the clear detailed instruction and enjoyed the results even though some stretches challenged me. Thank you David,

That class felt sooooo good for my neck and shoulders. I have this tightness or knot somewhere between right shoulder and rib cage, that cause a lot of neck and shoulder pain, and these stretches really helped. Thank you!

Hi David! This is a beautiful class as all in your deep release series. They have been my go to for years. Just a short question: why icould it be that my arms hurt a LOT when I extend them out to the sides to push the invisible walls with the fingers outstretched? It seems so unsuspectingly straightforward but it is almost unbearable. Of course, the pain does get better as I stretch every few days, but do you think it is just tension? Or am I doing something wrong? Thank you kindly. Cecilia

Namaste :-D
Many many thanks!!!
Beautiful release \0/

Thank you David - this is a fantastic class and brilliant for anyonewho does a lot of physical work - bending and lifting etc.
I work full time as a gardener and suffer a lot from neck and shoulder pain I find a lot of the poses challenging as my muscles are so tight but I always work through the entire class and always - guaranteed - feel 100% better after doing it.

Thank you !

This is the one.
I've done this class a few times before. Found myself with a very sore neck the past few days from sewing masks, working on crochet and puzzles. Nothing would ease the pain, (BioFreeze, CBD oil, Motrin, etc.).Glad I came back and found this class again. Thank you so much for your relaxing voice and gentle but very effective movements. Ah, a sigh of relief. :)

Holy moly! I really wanted to give up after the first 10 minutes.

Great Class, Really needed to release some stress that I was carrying in my shoulders and neck. Thanks

Great class. Whole body feels great after this class. Thank you once again.

Thank you David. Just came back from a bit of traveling--getting scrunched in car seats, carrying heavy packs over my shoulders and dragging suitcases, etc. Not to mention general tension. This was just what I needed to release some of the tension and rebalance back into home life.
