Doyogawithme.com is by far the best online yoga site I have ever used, and I have tried A LOT of different online yoga. David knows his stuff, and once again gifts us with very applicable and practical yoga that is sure to help anyone suffering from upper back pain.

As a quick side note: you might want to sit on a block while doing this class. I found that helped me a lot! Thanks David! Never stop doing this!

I had not surfed in awhile and woke up feeling a lot of soreness in my upper back and arms. This practice really helped to open up the muscles and relieve a lot of tension. I felt a huge difference after and would highly recommend this video to other surfers or people needing to stretch out sore back and arm muscles. Mahalo
