Thank you David, you and the rest of the team are making me stronger, mind, body and soul.
Filled with gratitude for these specially designed classes to ease my way back to flexibility and strength. Thank you David for clearly teaching each progression.
Clearly taught
Very enjoyable. Focusing on form feels so good.
These stretches felt so good! After a long day, I'm grateful for this yoga practice that eases away the tensions in my body.
This felt great, but wasn’t super challenging for me.
This felt great, but wasn’t super challenging for me.
as with many things in my life right now, I am having a hard time staying with a session each day. But when I get to it, it is encouraging and making more aware of the body. that is one of my goals. I am trying to do 2 seasons on my more focused days to catch up.
This class was difficult for me because of have osteoarthritis. I did the best I could. Still enjoyed it. Thank you
Really enjoying this challenge, this video was much more challenging than it looked, but very good I think these are nice short videos I will be repeating many times
You get five stars, I only get 3 1/2 or 4. Creaky knees for this one, but I'm sure good for me.
I'm an advanced student always looking for ways to be kinder to my body - especially my poor joints - and chose this class to warm up and improve alignment. It's a little too beginner-level for new alignment techniques, but is a lovely warm up, and David's energy never fails to soothe the mind.
You truly exude relaxation and calmness as you instruct. I am grateful to you.
Good workout for the joints. Namaste
Thanks....really enjoying the challenge. I do find myself forgetting to breathe and an occasional reminder would be helpful for me as well
Balance was a challenge for me today. Thank you for the short session.
Namaste
Relaxing and gentle! Just what I needed to unwind and be kind to my joints!
Thanks Cynthia
Easy to understand even when I can't see it. Some nice challenges.
I am enjoying this 30 day challenge.
Wonderful feeling.
My favorite pose was the dolphin! namaste!
I really like the way you explain each posture and where you should feel it in the body.
Too short.
The cues are good but I could use an occasional reminder to breathe. :-)
I enjoy the subtle awareness of habitually misalignments when we go through slowly and thoughtfully. Thanks for the reset.
David's instruction and descriptions are so clear and precise that I found myself able to balance far better than usual. Great video!
I enjoyed the class. I'm really needing help right now with joints and their care and alignment, and this did help. It was a little confusing for me to get set up in my small space and I had to do a warrior's pose again since I hadn't understood it correctly the first time. All in all helpful and worth repeating to get it right. Thank you!
I enjoyed the warrior poses and the instructions are very clear.
Thank you!
Very gentle, relaxing.
Challenging shoulder stretches!
I loved the shoulder stretch with the chair. This is something I could and will do, at work.
I just found you a couple of weeks ago and you are changing my life. I love how precisely you explain form, without complicating it. That really helps me enjoy doing the poses. And so many routines to choose from! Your voice is calm and soothing, and the audio and video quality is perfect. Thank you, David! Happy New Year!
I have bad knees, so getting on the floor is going to be difficult. Have anything that works around that?
Yes, use the chair to lower yourself or help you get up and put a blanket under your knees for padding.
thanks
I am over weight and have bad knees so looking to strengthen joints and loose some weight.
