So good. I find this really helpful as a prenatal class as I’m experiencing some back pain in the 2nd trimester.

Thank you David, I love this class and your gentle way of teaching. After an frozen shoulder injury, this is exactly what I needed ❤️

I have been doing this class regularly for more than a year and love the long, extended stretches throughout. So good. Opens up and relaxes so many muscles. It is a great companion to David’s “Yoga for Lower Back Pain II”.
