Hi Adrianne, thank you. I got a,great benefit from this work out.
I suffer from neck and back pain, sitting at a desk all day, and have felt the benefit after just 2 sessions.

Yes I'm enjoying your beginning upper body routine. It's helpping me get back into my upper body strength in the privacy of my home at 69 almost 70 years old. In high school I held the record one year for doing the most maybe 107 or 5 or 10. Now I can only do knee push ups but after the 3rd time I don't feel defeated and know I will do full push ups again, maybe not a hundred but it sure feels good to be able to work my upper body again, thanks

Hi Adriene
I only started yoga about a year ago with one of your sessions and have found them really great. You have a great presentational style, very clear, relaxed and also very personal. I've just combined this one which is a great session for user body with Yoga for Abdominal Wall so feel very nicely stretched. Thanks!

This was a wonderful workout with just enough exhaustion to feel like I really worked out my arms, but still with the ability to do another video afterwards. I did it in half plank the entire time (until the end) and I fully enjoyed the workout. Her pauses are just long enough for you to settle into each pose and the most soothing of all, her dog's energy provides a comfortable anchor point for your practice.

Adriene,
I love your videos. I started in March (with the start of the pandemic) with the 30 day challenge and have been doing a video every day ever since! You are gifted at sequencing poses in balanced, fluid ways. I wonder how you do this, with seemingly no "map".
Thank you for your amazing contribution to all of us.

Adriene:
Thanks for a great yoga session, I did the upper body strength practice. I have been practicing yoga for over 10 years and this was my first session with you. I loved it, I will be doing more of your sessions, thanks for sharing these.

Hey Adriene! I decided to hold off on the 30 Day Calendar I was following because it was getting too difficult and frustrating for me (my upper body strength needs so much work).

I found this 13 min Upper Body video....I could do most of it (left out the side planks...my wrists were toast by then). I will do this video regularly to build arm strength and until I am able to do the side planks too.

I am a grateful yogi! Thanks Adriene.

In reply to Jane. Yes please... sometimes your side tracking is frustrating because we are still holding the pose and are having a hard time doing so! I love your routines though, they are very helpful. :) thank you very much for sharing these videos with us!

Thank you as always. Your cheery and welcoming style is always so appreciated! This gave me some heat today. I feel better for it and it goes to show that you don't need equipment for strength building
