Thanks for the heads up, Suzanne. The videos are streaming and there are lots of things that can temporarily create a connection that's too slow for streaming video. Please contact us at [email protected] if the problem persists. You can try visiting our <a href="https://www.doyogawithme.com/help">Help page</a> as well.

I should have done this months ago. I've been doing yoga on my own since I was 16 for pain and stress, but I haven't been very consistent the last few years. It's amazing how much this helped my upper back, especially between the neck and shoulder blades. This was my first video on this site and I'm impressed with the quality. I also enjoy watching male instructors because I'm a guy. Thanks!
