I found Michelle's video first on YouTube, which then led me to this site. I started yesterday. After just two days practice, I already feel better than I have in years, especially in my shoulders and wrists. I injured my right shoulder 8 years ago and of all the exercises I've been given in PT and continued at home, Michelle's routine has my shoulders looser than they've been since my injury. I also have carpal tunnel and had reached the point of needing yet another set of shots in my wrists, but last night I was not awoken by the pain in my wrists that has awoken me each night for about 10 days now. I'm hopeful this routine was the reason - no more shots would be such a gift! I like the pace of the video and Michelle's way of giving both instructions and reminders. Kudos!

I do this practice at least twice a week. Love it.

I have arthritis in most my joints and find myself become more and more stiff and immobile. I felt this video gave me a full body workout that I could do. I saw a few comments about the speed of Michelle's movements. She does go pretty rapidly -- much faster than I was capable. I watched her for a repetition or two to see what I should be doing and then I just went at my own pace. It's yoga - not a competition Do what you can and you will find this an excellent workout.

I am recovering from an Achilles tendon rupture and can't practice my usual yoga routine. I was excited to find this video, but I felt that the breathing was far too quick. It looks like it could be a terrific practice if the instructor were to slow down and move with a natural breath.
