I am new to this experience. I have tried yoga several times in the past, but it never really took. Crampy feet, lack of flexibility, intimidation at all of the other people who were "better at it" than I am. I crowdsourced some recommendations for a good home practice series, and Yoga with Adriene was recommended at least 8 times. So I tried it. I started with the 30 days of Yoga series, and wondered whether I would stick with it. Here it is, day 22, and I can feel changes in my body. It's a challenge, but I am seeing progress. And it feels like coming home to a friend. Adriene, your teaching style is exactly right for what I need. I love how you show various adaptations for people at different levels. It helps inspire me on to the next level. It's in that vein that I bring a question to you... I love how you have different videos for different things - Yoga for Musicians, Yoga for the Brokenhearted, etc. I'm wondering whether you have any tips or tricks for the short-armed. I have (proportionally speaking) really long thighs and calves, and short arms, and a short waist. I find it impossible to bring my feet through from down dog to a lunge. I can't walk my feet up to my hands - I just run out of space. I can barely get my right elbow to the outside of the left knee, and feel like I'm going to pop out in all directions. I suspect as I become more limber, in time there will be some improvement, but the sad fact is, I don't think my arms will lengthen enough for me to be graceful about some of these pose transitions. Can you recommend any adaptations to help a short-armed, short-waisted gal move a little more gracefully? Thanks for everything you do. I'm so happy to have found you!

Hi Adriene! There was truly something special about this practice today. I feel myself more level headed and self aware and the transition into savasana was a different feeling that any other practice I had on these videos. For some reason, day 21 was hard for me to focus and I finished feeling unsure of my practice journey. Today's video restored that faith and I feel rejuvenated to finish strong! Thank you so much....these videos are truly a gift :).

It was great today. My first uninterrupted practice. Well I had to wake up at 5am before all the kids wake up. Usually, they wake up when I'm half way done and that can be anytime. Feel really great. Thank you, thank you Adriene.
