I recently had a scare when my back locked up on me in a muscle spasm or something. Being someone who never goes to the emergency room or the doctor unless it's an annual check up, I was in so much pain that I took myself to urgent care. It was then, that I realized that, at the age of 36, being in usually good health, I needed to seriously consider a regular exercise routine and I have always been interested in yoga.

So, I'm trying to stay true to my committment and continue with my quest to practice yoga daily. So far, so good. I downloaded "The Beginners" video from the YogaToday.com site. It's fairly easy, the instructor is cool, and since classes are recorded outside on a mountain top, so that even in the dead of winter, where I am, it gives the appearance that I'm outside with the sun beaming on my face with Neesha (my instructor) and her students.

With beginner's yoga, the instructor asks you to choose an "intention" when you bring the palms of your hands together and press inward so that your intention is realized. Well, my new intention/mantra is to have "Less Stressful - More Healthful!" Being someone who doesn't normally breathe regularly and has to make myself take deep breathes and relax my body because I'm always so tensed up, I'm finding that when I do yoga, it does make me feel more relaxed, and by breathing deeply, I feel more connected to a peace that is beyond me. That's a great feeling.

Hello, my name is Sagit, and I'm a musician, as well as a yoga teacher from Israel (now living in NY), I have watched and practiced with this video www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnbzxMsjbIk that you've posted, and I wanted to mention that it is great!

I tried MANY yoga teachers but after studying with my teacher who is a true master of Hatha yoga I couldn't find anything that was as good. Thank you for posting this video, I also recommended it to all my friends and colleagues in Boston where I teach and in NY. Thank you for posting!

I just wanted to thank you guys for the recent Stress Reducing Rapid Kundalini class. My life has been so stressful for the past couple of weeks and will likely continue to be for a few more weeks. I did that class again a few minutes ago and I just feel like I can breathe again. That class was such a blessing and reminds me why I love you guys so much.

I am so happy to have found Yoga Today. I have enjoyed almost every class I have tried and love the different styles offered by Adi, Sarah, and Neesha. Yesterday I realized downward dog had become a "position of rest" for me and I wanted to share my gratitude. My only complaint is there are so many classes it is hard to choose my daily practice :)

I started practicing yoga during my second pregnancy and then found Yoga Today in 2007 when I was expecting my 3rd. Now I'm a homeschooling mama of 6 kiddos. Needless to say my schedule can be pretty crazy and time to myself is scarce.

With the miracle of Yoga Today I've been able to be consistent and deepen my practice over the years. I feel like I get such authentic teaching from Adi, Neesha, and Sarah and have grown in my knowledge and love for my amazing body. Yoga truly enhances every aspect of my life, but it just wouldn't be the same if I was limited to making up my own sequences at home and rare visits to the studio.

I just finished the first 100 hours of my teacher certification and over and over my instructors were amazed at my intuitive knowledge of alignment. I have Yoga Today to thank for that and realized that I needed to let you know.

So, thank you, all of you, for being such a big part of my life. At least 3 days a week you can find me on my mat with my iPad playing Adi, Neesha, or Sarah. You ladies are deep in my soul.

I can't wait to finish my certification and share the light yoga has brought me with others-- especially expectant mamas. I know I wouldn't be where I am on my happy motherhood journey without you!

For the last few weeks I have been experiencing hip pain and lower back pain and couldn't do anything to stretch it out. I love running and have recently increased my intensity which i'm sure is the cause of my pain.
I decided to give yoga a go and found your website, all I can say is WOW.

I did the free class first and noticed a significant reduction in hip pain and then went on to sign up for a membership. I have now practiced 3 days in a row and no longer have any hip pain and I have reduced back pain. I am hooked! I can't wait to practice now and look forward to how I feel after I am finished.

Thanks so much for making it so easy and obtainable.

I am truly grateful, appreciative, and thankful for what Sarah, Neesha, and Adi selflessly offer.

There is so much I feel that I know sometimes and have been well surrounded by an abundance of information that SHOULD make me among the "creme de la creme", but then there is life, full of ALL the realities, that truly opens ones eyes.

A healthy self image is so hard to attain when you have to not only strive to be healed from abuses, not savvy (if I may) enough to attain the types of friendship(s) you would like or need (hence the further affects of abuse), but to also be so out of shape; and that covers so much!

When I log into YogaToday.com, I am embraced by techniques and words of encouragement that sparks all the goodness that I already KNOW.

With Sarah's breathing practices I am once again calmed, Neesha's stability and mental practices I am receiving mantras that reflect self motivating speech that I utter daily, and Adi's display of strength techniques creates a challenge that I can attempt and some times accomplish that reminds me that I can also do the same in other aspects of my life, and get similar results.

Wow, no matter what I am feeling, if and once I push myself to log on and see what practice is available (mainly the free weekly lessons due to finances), I receive the REINFORCEMENTS that reflects what I need in my life.

The sunflower is my favorite flower, and when I do yoga practice, I feel so bright and strong. I like to say that: I am determined to be like rays of a sunflower; I WILL BE!!!

Hats off to you all, and may you be strengthened and preserved:)!

I thank you ALL from the debt of my soul!

In 2009, I woke from sleep and suddenly had lost all feeling from my hands up to the elbow and from my toes up to my knees. I could not walk. I was diagnosed with a severe vitamin B12 deficiency. The deficiency caused massive nerve damage. I saw countless doctors and sought out help from hospitals all over the world for help with no success. Both mind and body lost functionality and no help from any physical therapist was of any use.

So after waiting for months for help from doctors (with no ability to take care of myself at all) I opened up a book that I refer to as the bible, B.K.S. Iyengar’s “Light On Yoga,” and reread the opening to the book. Iyengar wrote of his childhood filled with major health problems that labeled him as severely disabled. Iyengar took ownership of his own life and hit the yoga mat in India and went from disabled to the most famous yogi still to this day.

After reading, I hit the mat. I conquered the initial frustration of going from very experienced yogi with the ability to do guru level Asanas to a person with no control or use of the body with enormous success. I kept hitting the mat every day and in 4 months I could walk normally and do many Asanas.

Today I practice my own combo style of yoga that enforces cardiovascular health and muscle strength and grace. My B12 deficiency is part of my life every day with daily injections, pains, and nerve loss. Every day I hit the mat (with complete loss of feeling in the limbs) and then walk with beautiful prana radiating from my body and no one would ever know.

When I started my yoga practice, I only did it for the physical benefits... I wanted to get leaner and fitter and to be honest I hate the gym. I must admit I'm a mat drop out, because I started my daily practice and gave up on it more than once.

This time around, I came back to my mat with a different goal... I needed to find peace after a few panic attacks that resulted in a chronic anxiety diagnosis.

Yoga is far from a popular practice in this half island where I live, it's more of a complement in a few gyms and there are only 2 real studios where you can actually go and take classes... Plus it's expensive.
So once again I had no option, had to start doing it at home, and the results where amazing. I do 2, 20 mins sessions a day, and not only I feel fitter, I feel so much in tune with myself, I spend most of my day in constant and moving meditation.

I'm better at my work, and even though anxiety always kicks in when you least expected, I've learned to breathe it out and fight my usual impulses... I know I still have a lot to learn, but the process so far has changed and possibly saved my life.

Yoga is the razor blade that shaves off any negative emotions, the softener that grounds me, the rock from which I stabilize.

Thanks to all that help me do more and learn more yoga!

My 5 year old daughter, Nelle, has grown up watching her mum and dad do yoga - mum on an old purple mat, and dad on an ever-so-stylish black one. This year, she decided she wanted to be part of the fun, too - and asked us for a mat of her own. But not just any mat - a pink one, with love hearts and flowers on it.

Of course.

So for Christmas, our baby girl got her first yoga mat - a pink one, with flowers (at least) and she LOVES it! She's been doing Sarah's short youtube video, but we'd like more ... I'm just not satisfied with the other kids' yoga videos out there - so we're hoping you'll think about making more podcasts and videos for kids. Simple stuff, but little sessions I can download for her and encourage her interest in yoga practice.

Thanks, and Happy New Year!

Amanda and Nelle

My yoga practice and my slow (but sure) progress has helped me make peace with my body shape. I now know for sure that it's not worth it to compare oneself with others - every BODY is unique and something to be cherished.

Thank you, Adi, Neesha and Sarah for combating negative body image and promoting positivity!

For most of my life I was overweight, depressed, tired, and unhealthy. I had my first child at the age of 19 with my at the time Fiance and from that we had two more children. My husband and I have been together for 6 1/2 years, married for 2 and although he has always told me that I am beautiful, I was never satisfied with the way I looked. After our 2nd child was born I began to do yoga, I lost weight fairly fast, but my diet wasn't optimal. I then got pregnant with our third child and my weight skyrocketed. After she was born, my husband and I both decided to start eating healthier and I began to do yoga more and more everyday. 3-4 months ago we decided to become vegan for health and moral reasons, and along side yoga I've lost almost 40lbs more. I weigh 153lbs today and my goal is to become 130lbs. I know with yoga and a healthy diet I CAN do this. I have more energy, i can keep up with my 4yr old, my 2 1/2 yr old and 1yr old and not get winded. I want to live longer for my family and I will :]

I discovered yoga most notably, YogaToday approximately 3.5yrs ago when I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. It was the calmness and peacefulness I was yearning for during a very difficult time in my life.

Since that time I have been practicing 4-6days a week. Most of my practice is from YogaToday but I have discovered a wonderful studio near my home The Blue Lotus that I take an occassional class to enjoy my practice with others who embrace the same principles towards a peaceful & mindful lifestyle.

Recently my dearest friend has been diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer and my yoga practice is the place I go to to find solace, peace and stability during this very dark time in my life. I love my friend and wish her peace and strength to guide her through this journey.

Thank you for being such an intergal piece of this painful and difficuly journey.

I remember how hard it was for me in the beginning, the postures, the concentration, my legs shaking. Little by little, my body, my intention, my will and my strength became stronger. I have ups and downs, but Yoga Today is always there, anytime, everywhere... Thanks Neesha and Adi!

I've been struggling with depression and body image issues through all my life, Yoga Today has helped me to live better, to work with my emotions (not always positive ones), and not feel overwhelmed. Every morning I practice and my day feels a little brighter and better. Thank you so much for allowing me to live every day.

As an opera singer you expose yourself everyday to stressful situations. Before a performance or an audition you normally have stress, which over the years you learn to transform into something positive and helpful. Yoga Today helped me to achieve this transformation.

As you say, when you're doing yoga your body is in a stressful situation, but through the breath you learn to balance and enjoy these moments, finding peace and becoming stronger in mind and body.

This applies to everyday life, too! As you learn to stay calm and peaceful when you have stress.
You've changed my life, attitude and body! I'm grateful to you!!!!!!!!!!! I also travel a lot, so I take you with me everywhere :-)

I've never seen on the internet such helpful instructions, giving details and so much inspiration to the yogis!!!

You go girls and please don't ever leave us!!!!
Christina

I started yoga about 2 years ago and I think that it is one of the best decisions I have taken in my life! I often have hard time coping with my emotions and I am often overwhelmed by several range of feelings which are not always positive. Each time I pratice yoga with Yoga Today I feel relaxed and I am able to live the instant no matter what I happened in the day.

I would like to thank the three incredible women that you are. What you bring to my daily life is so important to me that it would be hard to describe it with simple words. Even if we don’t know each other personally, you are part of my life and you mean a lot to me. I know my day will be brightened by your goodness and wiseness.

I have learned so much from you that I just wanted to express my gratitude to you Neesha, Adi and Sarah.

Merci beaucoup et Namaste!

I feel great during and after every Yoga Today class, most especially Adi's classes. Adi fully inspires me to do the best I can in each class. I stay focused and motivated. She talks in such a way that I respect and admire her and trust that she will lead me towards my intention. She is so real and not at all "flaky" like many yoga teachers I've encountered over the many years I've been in and out of yoga.
I live in Israel where though there are many yoga classes available, they are expensive, inconvenient, and usually in Hebrew. Doing yoga at home where and when it is convenient to me, in my own language is perfect.

Besides that, when my upper neck was tense and painful to the point I could barely function, I followed the upper back openers class and felt immense relief immediately.

THANK YOU YOGA TODAY
תודה עדי

Dear Yogis,

More than a year ago I became a Yoga Today practitioner and I hardly miss a class. Many of the yoga poses seem easier to me now, but still there are many I cannot do as I am 60 years old now. I hope I will be able to improve more of the postures that Adi,Neesha and Sarah teach so wonderfully. What I like most of all of their teaching is the spiritual part and I wish I could listen to more of their huge knowledge of yoga science.

Each yogaclass brings me closer to my inner peace and wellbeing and I want to keep this feeling even through the difficult times I have to face (caretaker of my elderly mother) which seems very difficult.

Thank you all
Namaste

When I finally decided to recover from over four years of anorexia I had no idea what a mind and body connection was. It felt like my mind and body were two separate entities that completely hated one another. After a year yoga I am finally able to understand my body is not worthless and can actually do amazing things (like headstand and insect pose). So, I just wanted to thank everyone on the YogaToday crew for helping me feel whole again. :)

After struggling for twenty years with body image, eating disorders, and other self abuse, I found Yoga Today. It saved my life five years ago, and I find myself coming back to its supportive and restorative classes. I have trouble interacting with people in outside yoga classes - it flares up old insecurities. But the kind and truthful nature of the Yoga Today instructors, especially Adi, make me trust and believe in myself and others. Thank you so much. You help me connect my mind to my body with forgiveness and love. I am grateful every day that Yoga Today exists and that I am fortunate enough to have found it. Thank you again, especially Adi, for helping me treat my mind and body with kindness, forgiveness and love.

A few years ago I went through a nasty divorce and as I live out in the countryside in France it is hard to go to a regualar yoga class. I followed Yoga Today daily during this entire period and it really helped me physically as well as emotionally to cope with my situation.

After that I had major surgery on my ankle and couldn't walk for 6 months. I continued to do Yoga Today very modified and it has helped me to heal. I continue to do it to stay in shape and I'm able to follow most of the poses, even at age 60. Thanks to the wonderful instructions of your teachers.

I just heard about a book on NPR outlining the possible perils of yoga, one of the main ones being that so many teachers out there are ill-equipped to teach. At first I was angry that the author was criticizing yoga, but then I remembered that during the two years I belonged to a studio, I injured myself multiple times. I strained my lower back four or five times, to the point where I could barely move for a few days, I pulled my hamstring, I sprained my ankle, and I constantly strained my wrists doing chataranga without the strength to back it up. My favorite class was the Ashtanga primary series, and the back of my neck would usually be sore after the shoulder stand sequence, and I never really knew why. I think yoga is wonderful, but I injured myself so often because my teachers persuaded me that I was able to do yoga beyond my ability. I've been doing daily classes at Yoga Today for over a year now, and I have not injured myself once. I feel that's a true testament to the teaching ability of Sarah, Adi, and Neesha. I'm happy to have found such gifted teachers at Yoga Today. I am in good hands.

I belong to a support group for loved ones effected by addiction and it's related behaviors. One of the members is really into Yoga and she is 64 yrs old! Her demeanor was so amazingly calm and serene while she struggles in coping with her son's addiction...

Eight months ago I decided to quit smoking cigarettes and 6 months ago I started practicing with Yoga Today. My son's addictions are not negatively affecting me nearly as much as it has over the years.

I'm so very grateful for YogaToday.com because it has shown me the path to the balance I need within myself.

3 1/2 years ago, when I was only 32, I had breast cancer. It was never supposed to happen to a healthy young mum like myself ... but it did. So, with baby on hip, I survived cancer, and chemotherapy and radiation therapy. And now I'm working on making my body strong so cancer *never* *comes* *back*.

Yoga helps ground me in reality; focus my brain on the important things; and conditions my body - all things that make me stronger. And help me with patience, now that my daughter's 4 ...

Thank you for all you do on this site to help people find their strength.

Hi friends at Yoga Today,
I'm happy to join this large community. It makes me feel part of a big universe;-) I've subscribed to the 1-year membership because I want to find that magic practice space between the teacher and student. I'm happy now.

HAVE A GREAT TIME!
Giuseppe

Hello YogaToday. Like so many people I have experienced past trauma's in my life that have left me feeling emotionally broken and without trust in my own power. I signed up for an Ashtanga class at my university on a whim and powered through it, finding pride in just completing it and noticing how my strength and flexibility changed with every week of practice. Once I had a handle on the poses, I found Yoga Today's videos and practiced alone - but it never felt that way - with your excellent guidance.

As of this month I have been doing an hour or two of yoga every day and it has completely transformed my life. I set an intention of non-judging for every practice, and have learned to accept the moment and see things for what they really are devoid of the cloudy expectations of the mind. This has really carried into my outside world, as I am able to see other people and other situations using my peaceful intuition and not my judgmental mind. The practice of yoga has been truly therapeutic for me and I look forward to my time on the mat every day. I just needed to thank you so much for helping me find that inner groundedness that I always hear yogis talking about. Namaste

I have been practicing yoga for about 10 years now, but found Yoga Today about 2 years ago. Since then, I have gained a great deal of knowledge, confidence, peace and a sense of calm in my life. All the instructors are amazing and I can not imagine my life without all of you! I plan to become a yoga teacher next fall and I am positive that this is what I want to do with my life. Thank you so very much for changing my life every day.
Namaste :)

FINALLY!.....After months of debating whether to become a unlimited member of YogaToday, I took the plunge. Best thing I've ever done for myself!!!!!! No matter what emotional, spiritual, or physical issue I'm dealing with on any given day I have always found just the perfect yoga practice at YT to address that particular issue. In the 4 months that I've been practicing yoga I've seen a huge change in my menopausal moodiness and look forward each day to the peace and happiness that my practice is providing me. I can't thank you ladies enough for your dedication to sharing your practice with me and the rest of the world and for keeping it affordable enough for almost anyone to join.

I love Yoga Today. I've moved from intermediate to Guru level in less than 6 months and lost 15 pounds from an injury all because of Yoga Today!

I love Yoga Today because it gives me the opportunity to create freedom in my mind, body and spirit any time of the day. It reminds me to take time for "me" so that I can be a better woman, mother, wife and overall human being. I have been practicing Yoga Today since it's onset and wouldn't change my choice for the world. Shanti, shanti, shantihi!

I wanted to thank you for the wonderful website. After 10 years of off-and-on practice, Yoga Today brought me back. I studied with an amazing American teacher in Switzerland, but since then I have never managed to find a yoga place I could call "home," especially here in Paris. I travel all around the world and work at night - a lifestyle made possible because of yoga. Yoga Today has become my body and soul partner. Your philosophy of teaching is the one I believe in. Long life to you. Namaste!

I just wanted to thank you guys for the recent Stress Reducing Rapid Kundalini class. My life has been so stressful for the past couple of weeks and will likely continue to be for a few more weeks. I did that class again a few minutes ago and I just feel like I can breathe again. That class was such a blessing and reminds me why I love you guys so much!

Thank you so much for this great resource! I have been missing my yoga practice for the last few years, as I haven't been able to afford the crazy expensive studios here in NYC. Your videos are so well done, I love the instruction and now I can do yoga several days a week right in my tiny little apartment. Thanks again!

When Yoga Today first streamed online I was practicing every day with Neesha, Adi and Sarah. There are no words to express how much I treasured this daily practice. Two years ago I started experiencing pain first in my left hip, then in the right. Still able to practice with some limits, my husband and I began looking for solutions to this physical restriction which developed. The long road for answers began with suppliments, specialists, physical therapy and ended up with a diagnosis not easy to digest. Three orthapedic surgeons were in agreement that I needed bi-lateral hip replacement. All three specialists also agreed that being born with shallow sockets and minimal cartiledge was the culprit. All the mindful attention to yoga and health could not prevent this surgery. Sadly, for the last year I was unable to do any Yoga Today classes. Needless to say this was humbling and most difficult to accept.

May 18th of this year, the amazing Dr. Patrick Meere at the Hospital for Joint Diseases, replaced both my hips. The very next day i was up out of bed attempting to take my first steps. Throughout the months of challenge my goal was to return to 'Yoga Today'....novice and first time at first, and maybe making my way back to more advanced practice.

Today, September 16th, 4 months after surgery, one month after turning 60, I did my first class. As the universe is ironically kind, this weeks class is Neesha's novice foray into alignment and muscle strength. So very perfect as a welcome back. I am writing to say 'thank you' for providing such an inspiring goal to which i could set my mind and body. Although with range of motion restrictions still in place, it is thrilling to return to the "Yoga Today' community.

With humble gratitude...
Namaste,
Alice

I am a professional opera singer, and I spend a lot of stage time on the floor on my knees when on stage.

Several years ago I began to notice pain in my right hip and knee after a particularly poignant scene. Although the specialist I sought help from warned me away from certain types of exercise -- lunges specifically -- I began to look to yoga, a practice I had lost touch with, to regain strength and flexibility in my legs, pelvis, and lower back.

After only three weeks of steady practice with Yoga Today, I began to feel not only stronger again, but the pain had disappeared, and I had discovered another benefit I had forgotten about. My mind was uncluttered, I was sleeping better, and I was accomplishing more with less effort.

I have looked for yoga programs locally that provide the same mix of variety, challenge, and quality of instruction, and I continue to come back to Yoga Today. Thank you to all of the marvelous instructors and support team who make this a possibility.

Good morning. I found Yoga Today via a Google search about 3 weeks ago. Since, with only a few exceptions, I've taken part in your daily practice and...wow! I am 41 and have suffered since adolescence with a variety of debilitating bone/muscle/disc/joint conditions. Within the couple of years, my pain has worsened to a point of 'giving up' and I had all but lost hope. Conventional and non-conventional treatments over the years have either provides a fraction of temporary relief or failed miserably. I turned to Yoga as a "trial" and have found it to be my saving grace. Mornings have always been the largest challenge and in recent months down right impossible. Blessed with a work from home job, I have begun taking a "Yoga hour" every morning and, again...wow! I can't thank you enough!! While there is no miracle cure, of course, you have supplied me with a valuable coping tool and I'm very grateful. My goal now is to earn the title "yogi!"

Thanks again.

I am a person that has to truly find that inner peace, and remember the importance of patience. I was not born with that natural ability to calm myself. I enjoy yoga because it is physically, and mentally relaxing, as well as strengthening.

Thanks to Yoga Today, I can do it on my time, in my own peacful place, and not spend the big bucks that I just don't have.

I've fallen in love with Yoga Today. You ladies and the entire crew working hard to make this whole endeavor come together beautifully deserve a huge hug.

I'm from California/Colorado but am currently working in the boonies outside of Madrid, Spain. I have time to practice, but no time to commute into the city (the only yoga studio within thirty minutes of where I live is closed, unfortunately). When I found Yoga Today, I did Adi's Sweat for Humanity class every day for seven days. Now I'm a member, and today I was so inspired (and had the priceless luxury of free time) that I did a few of Adi's yoga classes.

Adi- when I am *in class* with you, you are eloquent and positive when describing poses and ways to enjoy where we are that I sometimes don't even need to look at my computer screen.

I've blogged about my Yoga Today love, if you'd like to take a peek.

Much gratitude to the Yoga Today team,
Denali

So, here goes my story with yoga and Yoga Today:

in 2006, I found out that I suffered from degenerative disc disease in my L4-L5. The doctors decided they should go for a surgery to substitute my sweet disc for a protesis. On my next appointment with the doctors I asked them if it was possible for me to practice yoga. They said yes, that it was a good idea and I started immediately.

After two weeks, I could perform my cores at home with minimal pain. On the day I should decide the date for my surgery I reported my pain level to the doctors and they were astonished and said: dear Carla, continue with whatever you are doing because this is great and we will postpone the surgery.

Since than, yoga has been a constant in my live and it is funny because now I practice yoga not because of my back but because I just feel so well. Last year, I had to go to Vienna, Austria, on work and I looked on the internet for sites with yoga and found Yoga Today. Since then I always practice with the instructors from Yoga Today.

See?!... You have helped me changing my life. Thanks!

Big Hug

My first "touch" with yoga was in Brazil, Berlin and Bali. I fell in love with it! Now I�m living in the countryside and they offer only a few classes on a certain day, at a certain hour. With my job this is impossible! I travel a lot around the world and now with Yoga Today, I can practice whenever and wherever I am. After a very long period of illness I am changing so much in my life - Yoga became a daily pleasure. The videos I have seen so far are fabulous! I am so happy that there is such a wonderful way to do yoga - thanks to "Yoga Today"!

I have been practicing yoga with YogaToday for a couple of years now, always tuning in to the free weekly class, and every now and then purchasing a class. I am most grateful for this website and your three amazing instructors. As someone who has moved around a bit from state to state, and eventually to South Korea to teach high school, it has been difficult to find a yoga studio to practice at, let alone establish a consistent workout routine. I have looked to these classes and these instructors to inspire, challenge, and motivate me--and they have certainly done that. I especially love all the beautiful locations you practice at, and I find (especially when it's a gloomy day outside my window) that the sunshine and the mountains brighten my day. Thank you to YogaToday for existing, and thank you for the helpful and encouraging guidance from your instructors.

I wake to the sound of my energetic children. My dear husband is currently working full time and in his senior year of engineering school, which means we see him on breaks between terms. My boys and I care for our small farm and livestock, I wild craft herbs and create healing body and skin care. We are busy, and I am often tired. My mind is on constant overtime and sleep eludes me most nights.

We live quite rurally, so finding a local studio is not possible in this season of life. I tried Yogatoday.com several years ago, but did not commit to the membership and had a hard time keeping up with my practice. I decided it was time to try again, and have been a full member for the past 3 weeks and have only missed 3 days of doing my daily practice. I am enjoying it so much! It is my time to self care and find center. I look forward to the calming of my mind, the challenge of my body and the evening of my Prana. I often find that the teachers cue exactly what it is I'm struggling with as though they're there with me!

I am thankful for rugged scenery in the outdoor classes, it inspires me to think outside my walls and into the open space that connects us all. Thank you for this great resource. ~Blessings.

I discovered Yoga Today and it has been truly life-changing. I started with the free membership but after discovering Neesha's Anusara classes, I quickly became an unlimited member. The ability to take unlimited classes for $10 a month has resulted in a regular (at least three times per week) practice for the last two years.

I have scoliosis significant enough that I wore a back brace as an adolescent but Anusara principles and regular practice have made me pain-free, open, and strong. Every day is a new opportunity. Many thanks and blessings to everyone at Yoga Today and especially Neesha.

I wanted to send love and blessings to Yoga Today for making this beautiful lifestyle accessible on a daily basis. I practice with you 5 days per week, because I can only make it to the local studio (a 45 minute drive) just 1 day a week. This is a fantastic, inexpensive resource for any level of student. Keep up the good work.
Namaste!!

I allways wanted to do Yoga, but never could join a regular class, because of the unregular schedule of my work. Last October I started with an App, but was missing instructions for the correct breathing and alignment-and intention. With Yoga Today I feel saved and inspired. I enjoy it and practice almost every day to cure my mind and body from all the computer work as a postproductioner. My dog is still doing a better downward facing dog, but my upward facing dog is better :-) You are doing a tremendous job. Keep on shining! Happy birthday Yoga Today!

I have been member of Yoga Today for quite a while and this is my first time writing. I began dreaming about yoga years ago, imagining myself practicing daily and admiring the people who did. Yoga Today gave me courage and inspiration.

All this time I have also been dreaming about saying thank you. Now I feel ready, with all my heart, THANK YOU, Neesha, Adi, Sarah, and all the crew which makes Yoga Today possible. With your efforts you give us a wonderful gift. I love your classes, your inspiration, your happiness, the strength you transmit to us. The views... beautiful! Special thanks for providing free classes. This has allowed me and it continues to allows me to practice even if my account is not as healthy as I would like ;-)

Yoga is my mind's escape. These days, I cant go a day without it. It helps the stress melt away, allowing me to have increased balance both mentally and physically, strengthening my appreciation for the vast capabilities that my body, mind and spirit now have. My mother is now a strong believer and is also reaping the same great affects both emotionally and physically. Thank you for having this website! This is my 1st ever visit and I am DEFINITELY looking forward to watching the classes and learning, learning, learning. :) Namaste!!

Hallo Dear yogi's and yogini's

I am recovering from a bad back disk and I'm in a lot of pain. The only thing that is working on pain relief are the wonderfull backbends. I am trying to do Yoga Today classes every week. It is always a surprise what wil be next. I just worked my way through Adi's backbenders for Yogi's. I am not a Yogi yet...but I will keep trying!

Thank you so much.

There is so much to learn in yoga! I love that I can look for any class, on any skill level, and from any of your three great teachers. I enjoy being able to search out a specific focus and skill level, for example, Sarah's "Happy Hips and Hamstrings." I love going back to old favorites, like the one of Neesha's in which an approaching storm gave a gorgeous lightening show. My thanks for bringing yoga to my living room. Because of your work and the miracle of the internet, I can now access yoga from home. Thank you for your time and your talents and your preparation which have made yoga available to me. Namaste.

Today I NEEDed to stay home to restore and rejuvenate, so I did just that and practiced Adi Amar's latest Ashtanga PrimarySeries in 3 parts. I started off this AM with Part one and the basics of the therapy, mid-day with Part two and the challenging "gruntas," and an evening practice with Part 3 - the invigorating inversions. I had a GREAT Namaste'!!!!

Thank you Sarah for so many great, great Kundalini classes. The breathing exercises and creas have improved my life so much. Number one, I've become a much better sleeper, and with 2 little kids under 5, I needed that. I am sleeping 100x better than when I started practicing the Kundalini regularly about 6 months ago. My endurance for running has also greatly improved. I feel more toned all throughout my body and I just feel happier. Amazing that yoga can do all this. Thank you so much for all these great classes.

I'm an English teacher living and working in a small town in Southern Taiwan. There are no English yoga classes available in my town, and after my first few months here, I found myself starving for quality yoga instruction.

After a few days of youtube searches, I found YogaToday's channel. I cannot even explain how much your classes have helped me! I practice morning and night and I find myself practicing during the day as well now! I love Sarah, Adi and Neesha and I have recommended your classes to pretty much everyone I know. I am so grateful to have found you guys!

I first got into yoga when I was in Peace Corps and one of my friends there who was a yoga instructor took me through some classes. I was skeptical at first, but eventually came to love it and when I returned to the States joined a yoga studio. In spite of the huge expense of it I loved deepening my practice and learning more about yoga's background and not just the physical aspect of it. Unfortunately I couldn't afford the expense and when I moved to a tiny town for grad school a yoga studio wasn't an option regardless, so my practice lapsed. I tried to do Ashtanga at home but had a hard time keeping a routine. I then discovered Yoga Today, and I love it! I prefer it to the studio because it's much cheaper and I feel that Neesha, Sarah and Adi are all more knowledgeable teachers than I'd been exposed to in the past. I also love the freedom of practicing alone in my home whenever I want but still having guided instruction. This site has literally changed my life!

Dear Sarah,

I enjoyed your warrior workout early this morning. When you said it would be challenging, you weren't kidding! (I was glad you said so at the beginning of the class so I could prepare myself!) I am glad I stayed with it and I feel that my practice was very deep this morning.

Thank you for all the wisdom and light and knowledge you have shared by way of YogaToday.

Thanks, too, to Kim and all the people who make these classes available--at whatever time of day, night, or early morning!

Namaste,

Jan Marie

I discoverd YogaToday something like 5 years ago, when I started to do yoga. I was looking for some podcasts to guide me in my practive at home and when travelling in my hotels rooms... I found it so great that It gave me the curiosity to expand my practice: I took a teacher training, went to India, and am now a certified ashtanga vinyasa teacher! All this thanks to you girls!!!

So a great thank you and lots of success into the future!

BTW, I have submitted my picture at the YogaJournal contest :

Namate!

I found YogaToday just as I was preparing for deployment to Afghanistan last fall. I have practiced yoga for almost 12 years now, with a lapse in my practice in the past 3 years.

Finding YogaToday on my way overseas, I was able to download a dozen practices (I was uncertain if I would have internet connection here) - and it's been a Godsend. About three times a week I can practice in the space by my bunk which is about a foot larger on each side than my mat!

My practice here has helped keep me calm and focused and has helped battle the depression that comes with being so far from home. Thank you YogaToday for providing me a great means to reinvigorate my practice and for the mindfulness yoga brings to all of my life.

I'm on the verge of taking the plunge and training to be a yoga teacher. I've been practicing yoga for 24 years - but I don't like to rush things.

I love the website yoga today. I love the free classes and podcasts. The teachers are all so different and each have something wonderful to offer.

I popped on the other night and did the happy hips and hamstring routine. Thank you very much Sarah. I have literally moved some years old stiffness out of my hips. Powerful, simple and very clever. The routine and connection of this class is inspirational.

Thank you very much xxx

Thank you so much for Yoga Today!

I have been doing yoga for years, sometimes at home, sometimes in a studio. I have tried to have a regular, daily practice, but it has been challenging as a working mom. I have either had to sacrifice family time (and money) to make it to a studio, or try to do yoga at home by myself - sometimes successfully, sometimes not so much.

Finding yoga today has meant that I am able to commit to a solid yoga practice, every day, on my own schedule. I love having the variety of classes I would get at a studio, and I appreciate having new classes come online on a regular basis. Yoga today meets my need for a middle way - I can participate in a studio quality class, but in a way that is convenient. Technology can sometimes be a burden, but using it for yoga has been such a blessing for me.

Thanks for helping me to take good care of myself!

I have always wanted to make a regular home practice happen, but as we all know there are a million excuses that get in the way and I find it hard to self-direct. I cannot BELIEVE the variety of different classes you have, and how well you have set up this website so we can choose classes based on our interests and skill level or just we need that day.

I thought I would take advantage of the 1 free class/week, but after a couple of these, I grew hungry for more and knew that $90 for a year's worth of unlimited classes (what I normally pay for a month's worth of classes at our local studio) was an excellent deal.

I'm so excited to try the different classes. Thank you so much for making yoga accessible to the masses in this way. :)

Peace

Being healthy is an important aspect of life and to energize your body and your mind to face the trials of the day. I love to keep in shape but being born with club feet, my exercising is limited. Yoga Today has made it easy and relaxing for me to stay fit and refresh not only physically, but mentally. Everyone at Yoga Today is an inspiration and every time I am in a class I feel like I am there. The areas where you hold the classes are really beautiful and calming. I just want to say that I am very grateful for all of you and this wonderful site that you have built. It is a pleasure to be a part of such a wonderful community.

Namastae

I am currently in somewhat of an emotional and professional limbo - but yogatoday has helped me stay focused, flexible and grateful for all the blessings in my life. I especially love Adi's positivity and smoothly flowing poses.

Runner, Kindergarten teacher, wife, and yogini...I wanted to find a way to balance it all. Not only does yogatoday allow me to run and do yoga everyday, but it allows me to practice my yoga in the comfort of my own home whenever I need my fix!

Because of all the different types of classes and various focus areas, I can deepen my own understanding of the yogaic path in a very personal way...like having my own guru! I also love the footage of the beautiful outdoors and the fact that my practice can be a quick one hour trip to the great outdoors! But I also LOVE the not-having- to-drive-anywhere studio sessions, especially the ones that compare my yoga on the mat to what it can be off the mat.

Adi, Neesha, and Sarah are so a part of my life now that sometimes I seek "their advice" and knowledge depending on my own needs or moods on a certain day. As a running coach that advocates flexibility for good health, I talk about the "flexibility" of the website to everyone...I tell them, "anytime, anywhere, wearing whatever yoga!" Sometimes I even do a yoga "retreat" and do 2-5 classes in one day, especially if they are a series. And all for just $10 a month!

I LOVE everything about Yogatoday! Thank you for this amazing daily dose yoga! Keep up the GREAT work!

Namaste'!

To say that this site is a blessing would be an understatement. For one thing, it's convenient for cultivating my practice at home; I previously thought yoga had to be done at a studio for any growth to occur. Wrong. Not comparing myself to yoginis half my age who happen to be more flexible than I has allowed me to go inward & evolve at my own pace. It's taken the element of competition out of the equation.

And another, Sarah, Adi & Neesha teach me something I didn't know previously after finishing an hour with them. Be it about mind, body, spirit, how to do a correct downard-dog, whatever, I always learn something from these sages.

There are other beneficial aspects of this site too numerous to mention, but YT also has some of the best production values around. Top notch all the way around & my journey & goals have become greatly illuminated as a result of YT & its wise staff.

When my beloved yoga instructor moved away, I thought my yoga life was over, that I would never find another instructor with her light, love, commitment, passion, and generosity. She taught me the real meaning and purpose of yoga - both physically, mentally and spiritually. Her class was never just stretching. I have found in Sara Kline the same kind of instructor, which I never dreamed was possible through videos! I feel an incredible sense of gratitude to have her be part of my day.

Namaste!

Hi,

Your website is great and I love doing the classes morning or night (before bed :)

I refer everyone to it--including kids I teach in an inner-city school.

My whole story about how yoga changed my life --and the stories of 26 others, including Mariel Hemingway and many more--can be seen in a new book I just published to inspire many: STORIES FROM THE YOGIC HEART (on the .com website of the same name!)

I hope you enjoy it and that you continue to have this great website up for many years to come. Hopefully, I can one day teach a class online from BC for you!

All the best,

Lisa :)

I love Yoga today's free weekly class! I used to live in Jackson and Neesha was my teacher for Beginning Yoga. All of the instructors are amazing and i constantly feel uplifted by the weekly challenge.

Thanks so much!

I come to YogaToday.com to practice yoga at home, and I come back day after day because I love the instructors and the wide range of classes available.

To make it a special event, I create my own studio space at home - set candles around the room, light incense, dim the lights, and situate my laptop. I always have a spiritual song queued up to zone out after the video ends in the final savasana resting pose.

I feel so comfortable and motivated practicing with you all in beautiful Wyoming.

Namaste,

Mary

I have always been on an off with yoga, but have always enjoyed the positive effect on my body and mood. I was hesitant to try this, but the classes have been wonderful and down to earth. I am thinking about taking a class in a local studio as well, but just knowing that I have this home resource is a valuable tool.

Thanks so much!

I discovered yoga this year when struggling with increased symptoms of an autoimmune disease, lupus. Yoga asanas helped a lot the the fatigue and joint pain related to the disease. As a night shift ICU nurse, I discovered Yoga Today was a great way to deepen my practice, as making it to a studio during daylight hours can be difficult.

I now am able to practice daily through my Yoga Today membership. Pranayama with Adi and Kundalini with Sarah gives me peace of mind and energy to face the day. Anusara with Neesha makes me mindful and keeps my practice exciting. When I am suddenly able to complete an asana previously unreachable, I am encouraged that I can do anything through diligent practice. My diet has also changed, as I crave whole foods, leading to a 20 lbs. weight loss.

The only problem with Yoga Today is choosing which class to complete each day!

Yoga Today is a great website for people who are interested in yoga and do not have the time or luxury to go to classes. At first, I did not like the idea of being taught in front of a computer screen but I realized I love the time I get to spend alone without worrying if I'm going to hit the person next to me or if I'm breathing too loud or viciously in class.

Thank you, YogaToday!

I went to India over the summer and began my yoga practice there. It's only been a couple months since I've been doing yoga but it feels great. And being a student and going to art school, you would think it would be hard to balance school and yoga. But with easy access to such wonderful videos I am able to practice everyday.

So thank you, yoga is really a practice for life.

Because of being able to do yogatoday or free every day and then for only 10.00/month the chasm between my authentic self and my destructive self became smaller and smaller until, integrated, I knew I had to get sober. Now sober for 9 months I continue to do yogatoday every day as an important part of my recovery.

Thank you Neesha,Sarah and Adi (and Kim) for your compassionate expertise. Your skillful articulation of the body's workings, fully experienced in tandem with the energetic self has changed how I do yoga and how I live moment to moment. I now live in the light filled spectrum of content, happy, ecstatic, instead of in the dark. All of these things because of this affordable, heartfelt, skillfully presented classes which gently invite us to uncurl. I cannot ever thank you enough for transforming my life.

Thank You and Namaste

I was keen to try yoga for many years but could never justify the expense of classes, nor could I find the time to get to them! An article led me to Yoga Today, and I attempted the free class. i found it to be wonderful, refreshing and enjoyable. I now have a large library of Yoga Today classes that grows weekly! I find in repeating the classes, I feel myself avancing, gaining strength, steadiness and confidence in the poses. The Ashtanga Primary Series and Yoga for Back Pain with Adi and the Energising Yoga class with Neesha are my current favourites! My back pain is far less of a problem since I started practising most days and I have gained strength and lost body fat as a sidenote, which is wonderful.

Yoga has changed my life in a powerful and wonderful way. Thank you for this website.

Yoga Today has made it possible for me to keep up a strong, diverse and every inspiring yoga practice. I love the concept of having high quality yoga always available and ever changing.

This site inspired me to follow my dream to become a prenatal yoga teacher and start my own website that helps moms-to-be safely build strength and flexibility in their bodies and minds so they can have a healthy pregnancy and avoid pain.

Check it out :-) laliyoga.com

hi just few words (cause my english isn't very good) to say hello Sarah Adi and Neesha and thank you so much

my name is Laetitia I live in west southern France near the Ocean and Pyren�es. It's the land of Foie Gras

I started yoga 3 years ago with an old woman who practises yoga everyday. She was amazing so healthy and so peacefull she taught me the key of success in yoga was the breath and I 've never forgotten it.

I love practising yoga with you especially when you are in the outdoor landscapes - so amazing!!! I hope coming to see you one day

thanks again

Laetitia

I love sports and I always liked physically demanding classes such as aerobics, step, and others of this kind. Yoga was never an option until I experienced a real class and of course... I loved it.

I've practice yoga for about two years, once a week because more costs too much for me. Although I tried to practice at home it was never the same.

About a year ago I got pregnant and I keept practicing my weekly class until I had my son, three months ago. At that time I realized that I wouldn't be able to go to my weekly yoga class because I had nobody to leave my son with.

Then I discovered Yogatoday.com and I have to thank you so much for this website.

Now I can practice yoga every day with your fantastic classes in various styles that complement each other.

Yoga helps me be a calmer person, more focused, happier and physically ... works miracles! There isn't a single muscle in my body that is not exercised. It's fantastic.

I have lost almost all the belly left by pregnancy :) I'm trully happy

For now I'm still on my maternity leave but when I start working I will continue to practice daily with your wonderful classes. I love the outdoor classes ... the sound of nature enhances peace of mind. It's great.

Thank you all for your excellent work.

Thank you all at Yoga today for helping me be certain of my core so that I can better use my edges! After a L tibial plateau fracture in 1988 and in 1991 a" saddle " pelvic fracture along with a broken L hip and L ankle fracture with traction screw drilled into my rebuilt knee( leaving me a cork screw with some issues) you have helped me leave my isssues behind but not forgotten. I have become better aligned for the first time in 20 years! Soften and allow! You make change fun!

If there is one way I can truely help others feel better in their bodies I refer them to your website.

I am third year a English/Anthropology double major & African studies minor at the Universtiy of Florida, an endurance runner, and am a very busy woman. Yogatoday has not only been my saving grace but has turned my apartment into my own miniature sanctuary.

I practiced yoga before leaving for college, but was very disappointed when I quickly realized my yoga practice did not fit into my student's budget, and the only studio around Gainesville was pricey & had very specific class times that didn't coordinate with my schedule.

I found out about Yoga Today through a friend and have come to rely heavily on the promise of unwinding with a session after a long, and tumultuous day of classes. It's incredibly affordable, portable, and is a gift to anyone individual with a love for yoga but a tight budget and a busy schedule.

I plan on traveling to Tanzania in the Fall for my studies and am beaming at the prospect of not only being able to practice yoga everyday all the way across the world but also being able to share my practice with the people I meet while I'm there thanks to yogatoday !

I've come to learn there are real cycles in a yoga practice and sometimes I find it hard, I get tired, poses which should be 'easy' are a real struggle, especially because I suffer badly with depression and anxiety. And also I think I've learned it's hard to measure your progress unless you compare it over a long period. For instance, I swear I have the tightest hips on the planet but I try to repeat Adi's mantra of 'regular practice with non attachment' and have faith they will open.

Tonight I did the Turning Obstacles Into Opportunity studio class with Neesha and I think I went the deepest I have ever been in hanumanasa pose *and* got as close as I ever have to lifting my knees off my elbows in tripod headstand. Okay, so I was still quite high off the ground in splits and I fell over out of tripod headstand, but I giggled and I got back up and tried again and I felt light and I felt proud.

Through YogaToday I have learned so much. I love the different classes by Sarah, Adi and Neesha for different reasons and little things they have said in classes have spurred me to look up different books and learn more. Okay, I can't claim to understand Patanjali's yoga sutras or BKS Iyengar's explanation of them, but I've learned new words, new concepts.

I have really dark days, but whatever happens, I always roll out my sticky mat for practice and feel safe, and feel proud about how far I've come and how far I can still go. Your passion has communicated itself to me and I try to pass that on. Everyone knows me as the yoga girl now and I'm incredibly proud of that, so thank you.

ps - I was also thrilled to be asked to do some modelling recently and show off my yoga muscles!!!

There have been 3 things in my life journey which have helped me to balance and to grow as a human being: Meditation, vegan diet and yoga.

I have been a vegan since I was 22, I have meditated since I was 28, and now, at last, at 31, I have found yoga thanks to Yoga Today. I have always tried to be a healthy person and have been always seeking ways to grow spiritually and to find my inner balance. So, I became a vegan as a way to be healthy and to live in a compassionate and green way (so I don't kill any sentient being and I eat in the most eco-conscious way possible, which means vegan diet, organic whenever possible, and mainly raw).

Regarding exercise, I used to do a lot everyday: jogging, daily gym, aerobics .. just name it, I used to do it! But I realized that I was addicted to exercise, I couldnt live without going to the gym. If it was raining and I couldn�t jog it was a nightmare .... and so on ... One day I decided to cut this out and tried to find something that allowed me to exercise, but without being attached and addicted to it .

I started to google looking for "something", and then Yoga Today was there! I started to practice everyday, and now I am so happy to say that I have found the perfect way to take care of my body: vegan diet and yoga. I just feel so happy, relaxed and fit! I have no "gym craving" anymore, and I can live a nice, stable and happy life.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Yoga Today, I love you!!

I have been interested in yoga for years and have gradually been integrating it more permanently into my life. Trouble is, I am a professional singer who spends the majority of my time traveling (and that's when I am not at one of my homes in LA and NY) As much as I'd like to incorporate yoga into my lifestyle it would be impossible if I had to attend the local class in my neighborhood since that neighborhood is always different and my time schedule is so unconventional.

Yoga Today completely removes any excuse for not practicing since I can open up my mat at ANY time of day, in ANY city and have an amazing, deep and focused hour of teaching. I have been utilizing Yoga Today for the last two years and have watched my solid, "muscley", athletic body lengthen and lean out into a fit form that I am truly proud of. Additionally, I am the mother of an 18 yr old son but no one would guess due to the great shape that yoga is keeping me in. Thank you so much for providing great streaming yoga sessions and such lovely teachers!!!! I tell EVERYONE about this site and will continue to do so!!!!

Sincerely,

Stephanie Alexander

I start writing this with a thankful heart.

I am a biologist working in Berkeley, California. My work involves many hours of repetitive movement and sitting in front of computers every day. The work is especially stressful because of the competitive nature of the research. I suffered neck, shoulder, back and leg pain for two years after an acute phase of severe neck pain and a following shoulder injury. In those ~700 days and nights, I don't remember one without a headache, neck, shoulder and back pain. I tried physical therapy, acupuncture, medication, oriental tui-na medical massage, chiropractic treatments, tai-ji, they all helped somewhat, yet none proved sustainable for me on a daily base.

Things turned around after I followed your teachings on podcast. I practiced the sessions addressing low back (Adi), shoulder (Neesha), hip (Adi and Neesha) and spine (Sarah). That is over 1 hr a day. In 3 days, the pain is gone!!! This just happened last week. I am in my middle age and I have thought that I might have to live with the condition for the rest of my life, but you changed it. I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

I am living on Guam, far away from home teaching yoga to Japanese and Korean tourists. It has proved to be one of my biggest challenges in teaching these last 3 years.

I've come to love each Adi, Sara, and Nesha's classes for different reasons. I find Adi's classes extremely grounding, reliable, and heart opening. Sara's classes I do things I've never tried and feel my mind stretching around fun and sometimes bizarre ways yoga can move us. Nesha almost always makes me laugh in her light hearted way and her words are always from the heart and they speak to me (literally! ha!).

I just love knowing that this practice is always here, and i plan to travel to Wyoming one day and practice in person. Great job you guys, you all teach me little gems each time. I hope I'm getting better at passing it on.

Thank you.

In the summer of 2008, my boyfriend and I packed our things along with our beagle and moved from San Diego to Connecticut to be closer to my family. We took about a month to travel the country, camping every night at KOA campsites, and then visiting his family in northern Michigan before arriving in New England.

Over the last year and a half, we have both gone back to school, and also work at a busy restaurant to make sure our bills get paid every month. I am now working as a certified Esthetician, and waiting tables at night. Although I love my new career, I have had to cancel my membership at the YMCA. We have had to cut back on monthly expenses, since I'm slowly building my clientele, and he is still in school.

I began jogging outside, and was really enjoying it, until the winter weather kicked in. I decided that I wouldn't run until it became warm again. But my body was not having it. That's when I began searching the web for free yoga videos. That's when I found YogaToday.

I loved that it's filmed in Jackson Hole, since that was our favorite place we camped when we traveled across country. Our tent was actually set up right next to the snake river. Wyoming is absolutely beautiful!!! I started out with the free weekly videos to make sure I liked the sessions. Then soon, my boyfriend decided he wanted to try yoga. Now this is a guy who doesn't exercise unless a ball or racket or bat are involved. We now enjoy doing Yoga together a few times a week. And the $10 a month is something we both can easily afford.

Thank you to all of the instructors and people that support YogaToday. I will definitely tell everyone I know about it.

Almost every morning I wake up before my twin girls and take one of Neesha's classes. In Estes Park almost 2 years ago, I had the honor of meeting Neesha at the Anusara Grand Gathering. At that time I was going through my Anusara teacher training.

Neesha has been such an inspiration for my personal practice, and I've learned so much from her that I can now pass on to my students.

I bow with deep gratitude to the entire staff at Yogatoday.com. My teacher, Noah Maze, encouraged us to take yoga where it is not. By creating Yogatoday.com and taking yoga "where it is not", you guys have raised the vibration of the world.

Sparkles,

I am a long time lurker at Yoga Today. I practice when I can and have always enjoyed your classes.

After so much time in self-practice, I decided to try a group yoga class at a local fitness center. I was hoping to improve my practice and find others.

Oh my. It only took a few minutes for me to realize that my yoga class was not going to be what I expected. I struggled through, getting increasingly frustrated without understanding why. Then I realized that there was no joy! It was the most joyless, mechanical yoga practice I've ever had. The instructor didn't bring any of the warmth and energy and love of life that each one of the Yoga Today instructors bring to their classes. It was clear that this class had been added without much thought and given to an instructor who knew very little about yoga. She even turned the lights off! I don't know how anyone could see what they were doing, let alone correct their posture.

I was amazed that what I had always taken for granted as being an integral part of yoga wasn't part of the class and how dramatically it impacted the experience. I made it through the class by determining to find my own joy in it and being grateful for a new perspective and appreciation for my practice. Thank goodness I could hear Neesha, Adi, and Sarah in my mind!

I am still interested in expanding my practice and finding an instructor who can help me further my progress, but I am so grateful to have the wonderful beginning that Yoga Today has given me.

I have been practicing with you almost from the beginning of Yogatoday and have already sent you a few thank-yous as I truly consider this website to have changed my life! But I did feel that another was in order.

I recently got out of the hospital after a twelve day stay for a fibroid surgery where there were complications both during the surgery and the recovery process. What I have learned in my practice with your wonderful teachers has been invaluable for managing the pain and the perspective on my experience. I have a greater sense of my body and know how to take care of myself, including how to use other muscles to take away strain from the area that is weak. I even got back on the mat for the first time yesterday and even though I am modifying like crazy, it felt amazing!

For now, I can just do seated postures (Sarah's "Yoga for Pain Relief" is a wonderful class, but if you have any other suggestions of mainly seated classes they would be most welcome) but no longer judge myself for going slowly and taking the time to heal.

Thank you Yogatoday for the transformations you have offered me--inside and out!

Namaste,

Heather

its always nice to watch the online lessons for some yoga practice.
Thank you.

I pulled one of my quads playing basketball a few days ago. It made me feel stupid to have injured myself since I do lots of strengthening but admittedly, very little stretching.

So, I made a change. For a while, instead of lifting weights at the gym I've begun to start practicing Yoga Today.

Today was my 3rd day in a row. I did Adi's indoor class: Sports Fitness from March 27.
It was perfect. Adi, your guidance through the poses helps me focus on doing it right and to become aware of my breath and what's happening with body.

I can feel my natural ability and definitely can feel my serious limitations �but it makes me feel stronger. I'm going to stay with it.

Thanks, Adi. Thanks, Kim. Thanks Yoga Today.

I am a PE Teacher (K-4) and coach here in KS. I went through 3 years of stressed out days and nights with teaching all day and coaching at night. My body began to tire easily, I'd lose focus, and at the age of 26 I felt as if I was turning 70!

I became interested in Yoga and started doing it once or twice a week with other teachers as a social event. I have taken it on full-time/daily now. I wake up an hour earlier...sometimes 5AM to get a class in on Yoga Today. I love it! I am so much more stress free at work and even more willing to participate in ALL the activities I teach with my students.

Not only does my mind, body, and spirit feel better...but I have a new found understanding and respect for all my students and athletes. I used to be short-tempered and not want to hear both sides of their stories, but now I take the time to listen and gently give feedback.

Having Yoga Today to do with a few friends is wonderful. I wouldn't have considered myself overly flexible...so humor comes in some of our sessions. But alone, when I can turn ambient music on in the background, the lights out, and clear my mind....I make it through a day of early morning yoga, school, coaching, things around the house, and still want to take another class in the evening!

I am so happy I found Yoga and am elated with how youthful and alive I feel each day!

Greetings from Netherlands. Love this site....... Thanks for the really good lessons.

A year ago today, I took a great leap forward in my life. For many years, I had been a slave to the gym. I worried that if I took more than one day of rest per week my body would turn to mush. I was fit and healthy by everyone's standards, but my self-image was skewed and I was exercising for the wrong reasons and hating it.

I decided to take a year and try replacing my intense gym sessions with yoga. For weeks and even months, I fretted that I wasn't going to stay toned and trim, but before too long, my mind began to change. It stopped being about that. I looked forward to my yoga sessions in a way I had never looked forward to a slog at the gym. I began to laugh more. I began to love better. After one year, I feel stronger and healthier than ever, but even better, I am more at peace than I have ever been, and an all around better person.

I realize this year was only the beginning of a long journey and I look forward to the joy and good health that yoga will continue to bring me in the future. I am so grateful to Yoga Today for creating a way for people everywhere in remote parts of the world, with busy schedules, and with limited incomes to access top-notch yoga instruction. I hope you receive as much joy as you give.

Thanks all!

Ahoy to all who enjoy Yoga Today as much as I do.

I am currently traveling aboard my 32-foot sailboat Chip Ahoy with my husband Scott and am far away from my regular forms of practice in northern Michigan. I am so grateful to have discovered your programs and learned from such wonderful teachers. There are many opportunities for stretching and playing with asanas and vinyasas on a boat in my own practice, but I never attempt headstands or other balancing poses when we are in steep waves!

The Yoga Today classes inspire me during the times we are out on the Gulf of Mexico, Atlantic or otherwise in the "Great Wide Open" where there is nothing but nature (joy!) to follow my heart in coming up with my own practice flow. The spirit of the Yoga Today programs remind me to live Yoga and be Yoga, finding it within myself even when I cannot have the support of following along with a class. It is also terrific to be able to sample different forms and to learn more about the fascinating history of Yoga. I was afraid that I would fall behind in my daily practices because I live on a sailboat, but am happy to report that I am finding the time and the means to take that time for myself in the universe each day, even if only for a few blessed moments.

I am very appreciative - and like the classes, I certainly have many beautiful settings in which to conduct my practices.

Namaste,

Cyndi

I first started doing yoga in the beginning of this year as a kind of side project where I listed a bunch of things I want to do and then go down the list and do them. From the first book that I bought I was in love.

Joining this website has helped give me a peace that no other exercise, book or person has. I suffer from chronic anxiety and anxiety attacks but through yoga I have managed to diminish these. Through this site, I have learned how to appreciate yoga. Sarah and Kundalini yoga in particular have helped me so much in learning how my body moves naturally and how to shift it back to where it's supposed to be. When I am on yogatoday it is time that I give to me for relaxing and rejuvenating myself and it is wonderful to be able to have an hour a day to do that.

Thank you so much! Namaste.

I started doing Yoga about 6 years ago with the end of my 22 year marriage. It started as just something to do, but has become a great part of my life. Gaining a real inner peace and being more grateful for the simpler things life has to offer, I have to say, I love it. The first yoga class I attended was in an old church and from there I joined a gym that offered classes. But, to be able to just turn on my laptop and pick any type of class at any given time...well it doesn't get much better than that. I have taken my laptop to a forest close in the area so that I too can be in a wooded area near a river. Nothing more soothing and peaceful than the sound of water.

Everyone should try to experience what yoga can bring to their life.You not only get stronger on the outside, but more importantly you get stronger on the inside..

I am truly grateful that I took the chance to try something new and went to that very first class 6 years ago.

I highly recommend taking your laptops outside to follow the classes. You won't regret it.

I am only 18 years old, but I have always been interested in working out and being healthy. I've tried numerous activities in the past... weights, running, dancing, Pilates, etc.

Nothing made me feel quite as great as I did when I attended my first Yoga class about 6 months ago. I loved that Yoga toned every part of my body and that it actually made me feel good... not sore or achy. About 3 months ago I heard about YogaToday through a magazine and I have been hooked ever since. And no, I don't mind the new fee because It's definitely worth every penny. :)

On top of my own happiness... my Mom recently quit smoking after 37 years and decided she wanted to live a new and healthy lifestyle. She gets up every morning and looks forward to YogaToday with me and it's been a wonderful bonding experience for both us. It has only been a few weeks and she said her knee pain is already starting to fade away.

Thank you YogaToday... especially Adi... we love your classes!

I live in a small town without access to Ashtanga classes. Yesterday, I traveled two hours to participate in Global Mala Day at the studio where I received my 200 RYT. After I taught a beginner class, I had an opportunity to take my first Ashtanga class with a revered instructor. It was 1 hour of beautiful Sun Salutations. Not only was I able to follow the Sanskrit counting, I was acknowledged for my alignment as I saluted the sun. Thank you, Adi. Your classes are educational, inspirational, and transformational.

Namasate.

When my husband and I were first married the best gift he gave me was finding Yoga Today. Together we would wind down with a new class each day. Even though we sometimes fall behind on our practice, I always know that there is an amazing class waiting for me.

Yoga has been a part of my life for over ten years, and every class I fall more deeply in love with the practice. It continues to show me how it can bring my body, mind, and spirit, into balance again.

Without yoga my body would be a network of twisted knots, and my mind a frantic sum of the stress that everyday life can bring. I am ever grateful to all yoga instructors and their dedication to bringing the joy of a healthy body to all.

Neesha, I love, love, love the energy and sunshine you bring to my practice, which in turn I pass along to my yoga students! Thank you :)

I have been practicing yoga since the birth of my daughter almost 2 years ago. I brought her to Mom and baby yoga classes when she was 4 months old until when she started crawling. I had to stop taking classes so continued my practice with Yoga Today.

Now that I am working again I have been getting up earlier in the morning to continue my practice and most of the time my daughter wakes up with me. So yesterday evening while I was doing dishes she walked up to me and hugged my leg, and from there she did her version of a sun salutation! She went into down dog and up dog and then back up again into mountain pose with salutation seal!

Thank you Yoga today for always being there for me around my schedule and sometimes practicing while my daughter is running up to me to hug me and my boyfriend is waiting for the laptop. Namaste.

My husband used to say that yoga was "sissy stuff". That was until he read that doing sit-ups can harm your back by continually rubbing the vertebrae against each other. Now, he struggles through Adi's "core strengthener" class from the blog every day - and admits that it is both harder than doing 50 situps and more effective at toning his flabby edges. Not only this, it actually strengthens his lower back instead of potentially grinding away at his vertebrae. Next, he casually asked one day "are there any yoga exercises to strengthen the arms?" Welcome to the world of Ashtanga Primary Series and Vinyasa, arm balances, and handstands! Exercises which not only strengthen your arms but also increase and maintain shoulder flexibility and good posture, which he needs after years of push-ups and sitting at a computer have blocked his shoulders.

Yoga Today is a great way for people who are new to yoga, or skeptical about it, to try things out without going to the expense or bother of finding a studio class.

When your body is brought into balance, your mind and spirit inevitably follow. When you learn to be aware of your body and pay attention to every tiny feeling in it, you automatically increase your ability to be aware of your thoughts and emotions and increase your attention span and focus. Discipline on the mat translates to discipline in your daily life activities. This great gift of yoga is what the Yoga Today ladies so generously share with us.

I've been meaning to submit my story since I started to use yogatoday, a year ago now. But the story is never fixed or complete, as is the effect of yoga on my life. It keeps getting better and better!

I deeply appreciate this website and am glad to have access now to all your streaming online classes. Keep up this good work, I look forward to future innovations and classes.

I started yoga about 6 years ago, and loved it! But after I had my daughter, she's 4 and a half now, there just wasn't time, or money, to continue. I've been with Yoga Today almost from the very beginning. The recent $10 per month was a no-brainer to pay.

Thanks for keeping me flexible!

I have done a lot of hard things with my body through my life (sports and jobs) and I'm always sore or uncomfotable. I've been seeing an osteopath for the past 8 years. I started using and enjoying your site more than 5 times a week for the past 4 months. My osteo has never seen me so straight and aligned in my posture and body. I use yoga in every move I make that asks from my body; I think about my breathing and mostly about using my core.

Special thanks to Sarah Kline that is so inventive in her practice, I never know where she's going to take me in my body and soul and it's very refreshing and inspiring.

I have logged into your classes for a few years now - originally as away to be inspired as a yoga teacher with new points of view and to deepen my own practice. Being able to take a class whenever I could squeeze it in is incredible.

In the last 2 years I have had to have 2 hips replaced and had to recover from breast cancer - The kind presence of all 3 teachers - but Sarah particularly for me, has brought deep healing and joy.

I love the new format and am grateful for the incredibly reasonable price that makes it affordable for an artist/yoga teacher.

I just read Rick from the UK's post and was a bit shocked to learn how Yoga Today has received some backlash for beginning to charge after years of not doing so.

I've always felt a little strange about NOT paying for such awesome programming, preparation, and professionalism (not to mention your words of inspiration and wisdom). When I first logged on I kept trying to find the "subscription to services button." In the back of my mind I worried that if you didn't charge, you might vanish. So to pay a meager $9.99 / month to get my boots rocked every time I log onto your site is SO worth it.

Money has been demonized in our society. But really it's just a form of energy that, when exchanged with good intentions, flows from one person to the next. There is a silent agreement in which I say "you are worth it" and you say "I'll give you my best, and thank you".

So thanks for all your hard work.

Namaste,

Lesley

Hi Yogis,

I am from Bulgaria, 31 and I have been doing yoga for almost a year. I like you all, but Neesha is the one, whose classes I am addicted to.

I started yoga classes because I had to stay at home looking after my sweet baby, but soon discovered the sweetness of postures, alignment and twists.

Namaste Neesha, for keeping my body fit and healthy.

I recently moved to the San Francisco area. I graduated college in the Spring of 08 and spent the last 9 months traveling in South America. Needless to say I am financially broke from my recent trip and the Bay area is a hard place to live on little income, let alone pay for Yoga classes at pricey studios.

I was shown your site by a good friend and saw you offer the "all the yoga you can possibly do in a month" pass for only $10. Thank you for being so generous in your price. I can do yoga EVERYDAY now and still afford to eat. I am honored to be a part of this movement for affordable health and wellness in this economic climate and I will be sure to pass it on to everyone I know.

Thank you again,
Teri

I have struggled with stress, weight loss, smoking cessation, and inner peace for many years. I was never able to get myself to work out regularly, and my body and mind have suffered as a result. I practiced yoga only sporadically until I found Yoga Today. Yes, a session at a studio provides a more personal experience, however I followed my very first session online over five months ago and I am feeling improvements in mood, posture, strength, and breathing, as well as a myriad other benefits that make me a stronger, healthier and more mindful being. Who knew I could be breathing incorrectly all this time, and that it is so easy and beneficial to focus on that simple necessity with the help of your instructors? You have an amazing ability to reach out of my electronic devices and into my home to get me focused on mind and body.

Since beginning practice with this site, I find myself looking forward to each new session. It is wonderful to practice in the one space I feel truly at peace, at my own pace, when I need time to refocus. Not only have you brought peace to me, you have brought more peace to my home, and I am forever grateful!

Almost a year ago, I had a nervous breakdown. I stopped talking to everyone, was barely eating or sleeping and was having multiple panic attacks a day. It was awful. After months of therapy and working with a naturopath, my symptoms improved but i still wasn't able to go out, and to this day I'm still too afraid to be around anyone other than my sister and boyfriend.

Through all this my health was getting worse and worse. I wasn't getting any exercise and the convulsions from my panic attacks caused such horrible back pain that, at times, I could barely move.

After seeing a chiropractor to get to a point where I could move again, I started doing classes on Yoga Today. I prefer real classes to most videos because they focus on the spiritual aspects and aren't cheesy. That's why i fell in love with yoga today, It's like being in a real class with excellent yoga teachers, without having to leave my house.

After just a few days of yoga my back pain was gone and I was feeling so much better.
Now that my back is totally normal again (my chiropractor was astounded at how quickly I got better), I do yoga everyday. Now I focus on trying to strengthen my mind through strengthening my body. Every time I do yoga I feel like I'm one step closer to overcoming my fears and anxieties, it's the only thing that quiets my mind.

Because I can't really afford yoga and I'm too afraid to attend classes, these classes are a life saver. I know that they will play a key role in my recovery and I think the people who work so hard to make this website possible are amazing, bringing yoga to people like me, who need it so badly.

Namaste :)

Thank you yoga today for creating such a wonderful website. I have been visiting your site for over a year. I love the diverse video selections and tend to practice about 3 times a week. Yoga has made me more calm, centered and free. Keep up the good work!

Namaste.

I am so grateful for Yoga Today. It has made regular yoga practice accessible and practicable for me, a native English speaker living abroad. Although I am fluent in Greek, it is simply more relaxing to practice yoga in my mother tongue!

Thank you for bringing top-notch instruction, the peaceful and inspiring approaches of Neesha, Sarah and Adi, and the natural beauty of America into my home across the ocean!

I want to take this opportunity to say "Thank You" to Adi, Neesha, and Sarah for all that they do to provide such a wonderful opportunity for everyone all over the world to practice Yoga.

I was going to our local YMCA here where we live for about a year. My husband and I started going to school again, and I couldn't find the time to get there to practice. I was losing a lot of self confidence and peace of mind while not being able to practice. One day I as searching on line for Free classes and Yoga Today came up! I now have been practicing Yoga nearly EVERYDAY since August of 2008. Not only does this provide a way for me to do Yoga in my busy life with school Full-time, but I have 3 children, and as people with children know; it is very difficult to find the time to pack all the kids up, pack all your yoga gear, and head to the gym or yoga studio near by, and then get home. By the time that's all done, you've already spent over 2 hours.

I have recently been diagnosed with AS (Ankylosing Spondylitis). An inflammatory arthritis of the spine. I am able to find relief from the pain that I suffer daily by doing Yoga in my own home. My children enjoy doing Yoga with me when they aren't sleeping. Our daughter will hear the Yoga Today music, and say "downward dog", and get in Downward Dog position!

Yoga Today allows me to practice in the privacy of my own home after my children are off to dream land, and I can go to sleep myself afterward. I cannot say Thank You enough to Yoga Today for offering such beautiful Yoga Sessions that everyone can enjoy; anywhere, and anytime!!! Thank You, again! You all are great! Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you!! :)

~Namaste

I was disappointed by all the negative feedback on Twitter about the new subscription model.

So I wrote my own thoughts on my blog - I think the true yogatoday community should reflect on it


"Flexible Pricing"

Since 2006, US-based yogatoday.com has been offering a free yoga class each day. Its formula is a 1 hour class, shot in high definition against the inspiring backdrop of the Teton Mountains, Wyoming.

This month, yogatoday moved to a subscription-based model, charging a modest $9.99 per month for all-inclusive access to its whole back catalogue. For less frequent customers, it also runs a $3.99 per session offer, allowing users to download the class, for repeated use, or for when internet access is unavailable. And there�s still a free 1 hour session each week, no doubt designed to encourage newcomers to try-before-you-buy.

Since the shift, there�s been a backlash from long-time regulars, complaining that yogatoday had abandoned its free-to-air principles, and become greedily commercial.

It left me asking myself: �Just what were these unhappy customers actually loyal to?� Everybody loves a freebie, but do they want the website to go bust ? Ultimately yogatoday has to be sustainable - they had already tried advertising to cover costs - something that kept the service free for users for longer.

The new Yogatoday offers more flexibility - greater access for die-hard fans, low-cost download shows for selective customers, and STILL a freebie every week for the rest.

This customer segmentation and flexible pricing should mean that Yogatoday can build and grow its breadth and depth of shows - something that all customers will benefit from�.. its most loyal followers above all others.

How To Be 'Customer Faithful'

Yoga Bear works with cancer patients and survivors across the US. For the past year or so, we have been referring our participants who are unable to take classes at a studio to Yoga Today. Being able to do yoga from your own home is invaluable. The videos are beautiful and the variety of classes is incredible. Thank you for this service!

I have been using Yoga Today as a resource over the last four years. It has become a thread between the changes as I left my childhood home in Colorado, moved to Boston for school, transitioned to NYC and then made the drive to Los Angeles. Though I have tried a number of physical classes, my mobile life style has not allowed me to join a specific group or practice. I appreciate having the resource available to develop my own practice and peace of mind wherever I happen to be located.

Though I will miss having access to all your classes for free (as I miss being able to download and save the classes from the original website) I am glad to see Yoga Today grow and develop into a strong organization. I hope it continues to reach a broad audience by providing a service to those with transitory lifestyles.

I first came to yoga as a step aerobics instructor. I felt that I needed to do something to just keep my continuing education credits, and didn't expect much from yoga. I didn't believe it could change my body, change my attitude and give me a feeling of being connected to anything.

After my training, I was hooked. Every day since, I practice, teach and breath yoga as often as I can. I've found the joy is the practice, not the end state, although there are many benefits. I'm so glad I get to share my love of yoga with others as an instructor, and it's my hope to bring yoga's life-changing effects to more people.

Yoga Today has helped me through some hard times and it has made yoga play one of the most important roles in my life.

I am currently recovering from an eating disorder and find yoga to be the perfect way to do this in a peaceful way that is challenging both physically and emotionally while still remaining healthy instead of competitive, like other sports I do.

I am learning to love my body and the strength and agility I have acquired from daily yoga practice. I want to thank you for making this all possible for the people with busy hectic lives!

Thank you so much

I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy Adi as an instructor. I love her insights, advice, and her push to make us break barriers. Her yoga for rock climbing class was my favorite so far (and I've been visiting on and off for over a year).

Thanks Adi - you rock.

Yoga Today has helped me through my recovery journey as a domestic violence victim. Practicing yoga has made me realize how strong I am mentally and physically. I no longer live in fear and practicing yoga is like giving myself a little gift each day...it's amazing! Thank you!

I have to travel for my job A LOT and live in hotel rooms in such exciting places as Mobridge, SD (where I am now).

Trying to motivate myself after work to do yoga without an instructor is hard, and DVD's get boring. Yoga Today is awesome! I get to practice "with" an instructor, and vicariously can enjoy the beautiful setting of Jackson. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of this amazing journey!!!

Thanks for the wealth of power, relaxation, and strength you provide via this site. I would be lost without it!

I just want to say THANK YOU for the classes.

I have two small young children and these classes have saved me. I just feel so changed in every way. Poses and technique are so well covered, and I am just so thankful for this site. I wish I had known about it sooner.

I first did yoga about 1 year ago on a tv program. since then i've done it like 1-2 times per week. i started doing like a 20 min yoga before lifting weights.

Since finding www.yogatoday.com i am able to understand yoga better, have increased my mindful breathing and can do the hour long practice without getting angry. I even started taking a live yoga class once a week.

I also train martial arts. I have been doing martial arts/muay thai for about 9 months. This type of training causes my body to get beat up. In following the classes offered online i am currently on a 4 day streak of doing yoga which i am proud of.

I like the variety of classes offered. The class I will be doing today is to help runners which i do run so thank you for the class. Thank you for everything. I dedicate this practice to you.

I have been struggling with weight loss issues for years. I decided to start practicing yoga just over a week ago, when my back pain prevented me from doing any other form of exercise. Even in this short amount of time, I have noticed how more alert my body and mind are during the day. I can't imagine starting my day any better than with an hour of yoga from Yoga Today. Thank you!!

Thank you. You have helped me to finally move my practice home. I enjoy yoga in the intimate environment and can reach out for it anytime I need it. You have helped me pass through all the difficult moments. With you, I have gotten my life back into my hands.

Thank you :-)

I have been practicing since 2004, and I'm tall and have very tight hamstrings. Today, for the first time(!) I touched my forehead to my knee in a forward bend during Sarah's Astanga sequence. Hooray!

Thanks for providing a great service to the yoga community with your free classes--it has improved my practice immensely!

Hello, I am glad I found you guys. I have been practicing for about a week, and I feel great!

I recently turned 21 and decided to get in shape. I feel like with the support provided, I will be able to make my goal possible. I look forward in practicing with you. Thank you for all.

Your daily sessions have slowed down the pace of my life in Beijing. It is allowing me to stop and breathe, something I had forgotten to do lately. Thank you for the fabulous Yoga sessions.

6 months ago, I thought I had my life figured out, then one-by-one everything began to fall apart; some things in my control and many not. These windfalls brought me to Istanbul where my life is slowly turning around. Practicing with Yoga Today was when I began to see this turn around.

What you all have taught me the most is to focus on the present and heal by cherishing the few moments of peace I experienced, which now after practicing for 3 months is prevalent and frequent! I am my positive, energized self again.

Thank you, Adi, Neesha, Sarah, Kim all of you for sharing your powerful, selfless, positive spirits with the world.

I will be visiting Jackson in early spring next year to ride your infamous spring snow, and without a doubt be attending an infamous yoga session while I�m at it!

I have been a Pilates practitioner since 2005, and have always thought of yoga as something that's "not for me", since I prefer more dynamic, spontaneous movement. I watched people twisting themselves to death with great trepidation, and I did not get into yoga (and only because of some external motivation) until just a few months ago.

I must say that, to date, my viewpoint has changed entirely: now, I try my best to practice yoga daily. I love the awareness it brings me, and the silence it allows me to experience within myself. The breathing and relaxation that accompanies the poses (although I admit that they are not always easy to do at the same time sometimes) relaxes me and helps center my mind on the things that matter. The connection between body, mind, and breath is not only energizing, it is cleansing.

It is also so refreshing to have a site such as yours that allows us practitioners to get lessons for free. I personally prefer doing yoga at home since I get to have more freedom, but when I surf the Net for more videos it inevitably ends up being something that you can view only if you pay for it. Kudos to all of you who provide fledglings guidance and assistance!

I hope that, like me, people would give yoga a try, and find themselves in the middle of this hustling, bustling world.

Namaste!

Together with my weekly yoga class, the sessions of Yoga Today make my week complete! The beautiful surroundings/nature makes me relaxed from the first moment I enter the website.

Thanks to Neesha, Sarah and Adi for the inspiration and professional practises!

I've been doing your workouts occasionally since my daughter told me about your site last year. She excitedly told me about the sciatica session this week. I have an extruded disk and sciatica for which I have been going to physical therapy. This session targeting my problem area has been so wonderful. I've done the session twice since it was posted and each time I've slept better and walked more smoothly.

Thank you!

I have always been fascinated and interested about the Yoga Practice but I can�t seem to find the time and place to get things started until I got sick and advised to stay home for couple of weeks until my full recovery. It is in these moments that I have found your site, from then on I was captivated not only by your generosity for proving daily free yoga classes but also to the genuine passion and commitment that illuminates Sarah, Adi and Neesha that inspires me to be more passionate about my body and more committed in understanding and finding my innermost true self, my center.

I have been practicing with you for almost three months now and I can genuinely say that it made me a better, more peaceful and centered person not only to myself but also towards the people around me especially towards my students.

Thank you Sarah for being my first yoga teacher, I have started with your Beginner Class and through that I have gain a deeper knowledge and understanding on the foundations of Yoga. I am taking it your way, one step at a time. The light in me acknowledges and will be forever grateful to the light in you.

Thank you Adi, the postures and the insights never fails to challenge and make me listen and be gentler to my body. You are such an inspiration both as a teacher and as a practitioner. (tried that quick lunch, too)

Thank you Neesha for showing the fun approach to yoga. Your playful poses makes the practice lighter and fun fun fun!

Thank you Yoga today, and may you continue shinning for all of us, in all corners of this matrix.

Namaste.

Boo

I found you the other day on youtube when I did a search for "lower back pain relief." A 17 minute video of yours came up and it really helped with the pain and pressure that I was experiencing. I've never been a big yoga person, but your website has really got me excited about it, and I'm excited to work out with you!

I play basketball, day in and day out. The fun, yet demanding sport puts so much pressure on the body and the mind. I needed something to help me relieve the stress and to reduce the wear and tear on my body.

Yoga has helped me so much mentally: to calm down when I'm under pressure, to accept mistakes and move on from them, and to focus on a task at hand.

It has also helped me physically: I'm more flexible. I have not had an injury since starting yoga and I am stronger than most of my teammates; I hardly even lift weights!

Thank you so much for providing GOOD free yoga. I don't know what I would do without it!

Thanks from Australia.

I recently discovered Yoga Today and am eager to see each day's new class. With 2 toddlers I thought I still had years to wait to start formal exercise again, but Yoga Today has definitely changed that. Thank you, Thank you. It provides peace and tranquility in my otherwise noisy and hectic life. I love the beautiful landscapes and your competent and friendly instructors. Please never stop.

After moving to Canada and not being to able to find replacement for my yoga teacher from home (Europe), I stopped practice for more than a year, struggling and trying to find myself... until one day I said "enough, there has to be way". That same day I came across YogaToday!

For two months now, I get up every morning and practice. I feel like I find myself again full of energy to deal with the cultural change, the language barrier, the cold weather that my new home in Canada brings me, the different taste of bread, homesicks and poutines :o)

Thanks to YogaToday I feel like I'm in the right place on Earth always, it doesn't matter if it's half across the way from home.

Thank you, and thank to Neesha who's classes I long for !!

I have been suffering from depression, anxiety and panic attacks for several years now. I was recommended by a practitioner to try yoga classes, but due to financial difficulties and lack of time, this was not possible.

I came across this website - it has changed my life. Thank you so much. The detail in which the classes are taught is fantastic. The shorter videos of exercises on the blog page are also fantastic especially when time is short.

Thanks Yoga Today.

I am a 26 year old dancer, and I have been battling cancer since I was 19. My ordeal with Hodgkin's Disease reached its peak at the end of 2007, when I lost my ability to walk and was diagnosed with stage 4B cancer. After a grueling 6 months which included spinal surgery, loads of chemo and a stem cell transplant, I regained my ability to walk last spring.

I have suffered with the many side effects of my treatments for the past year, which included many bouts of severe depression. I discovered your site earlier this year and I can't even begin to tell you how much yoga has helped me in my healing. I began dancing again at the beginning of this year, but suffered from very low energy, among other things. For the past 5 weeks, I have practiced yoga almost everyday, and the difference has been unbelievable. My depression is completely gone, my body feels so much better, and my energy has improved a great deal.

I just want to send a heartfelt thank you for such a wonderful site and such wonderful instructors! I've grown quite fond of all the instructors and their styles of teaching, and I really enjoy and look forward to practicing along with them. You have all inspired me so much that I am thinking about getting my own yoga teacher certification to help cancer patients and survivors in their healing process.

Namaste and hugs from Calgary, AB!

Just a thank you from a stressed out, job hunting fan. You make my life so much easier. Everyday I take your lessons as a break, and every time it clears my mind and makes me feel fresh and alive again.

I am very grateful to you creative people. Have had some joint injuries over the past few years and it has been challenging to come back to what I consider a strong and vibrant, healthy body, mind and spirit.

Thanks to your thoughtfully constructed and delivered classes online I have begun to consistently build up my strength and have regained much overall flexibility and confidence.

I hope I can visit Jackson sometime and give you all big hugs and participate with you in person.

Namaste

Hi,

I am a Canadian girl living and working in Norway and have been for the last five years of my life. I started doing Yoga Today classes; recommended by a friend, a few years ago. She (my friend), her three lovely sisters, and I are very much involved with these classes.

Despite not seeing one another on a regular basis we have the opportunity to connect through Yogatoday. We often talk and write emails to each other asking if either has done a certain class or heard the creative wording of Misha, and/or the attempted any of the inspiring poses. We love your classes so much that when the opportunity of getting together two summers ago came; we gathered our yoga mats, laid them out side by side on their beach front patio, and set our intentions with the oceans breeze on our faces.

I will never forget this beautiful day of sunshine and yoga illuminating our friendship and the places life had taken us thus far. We bonded once again through Asana�s and downward facing dogs.

Just wanted to say thank you.

Would you be so kind as to dedicating one of your shows to the friendship between Melanie, Yona, Samara, Leyla, and Aviva?

Namaste

Yoga is about the only activity that I have really stuck with and that has benefited me in body, mind and soul. Thank you so much for providing the convenience of having access to good quality (and substantial) yoga practice at any time and any place.

This website is a godsend for someone like me who has a busy, inconsistent schedule, and who loves yoga.

You have changed my perspective in my daily life, knowing that there is a profound class available to me everyday. My body has changed, I have more energy and honestly, this gives me faith in humanity. Thank you so much for making these classes available. I have turned everyone I know to your gift! Thank you, thank you! And Sarah, your classes on the 3rd chakra are incredible. I feel a shift afterwards...
love love

I found your website after I had had a car accident and needed to do more yoga. I needed to stimulate my mind, body and spirit into doing more.

Thank you, you have really done this for me. I try to do 3 to 4 yogatoday classes a week in addition to my local yoga class. I am so much better and getting more relaxed and flexible.

Thank you again,

Hannah x

Thank you very much for this wonderful site. I love the teaching of all three of you and practice nearly every day now. It helps me to recover much quicker from the migraine attacks I am suffering since my childhood and reduces the frequency of these attacks.

I am deeply grateful for your dedication.

I just discovered the site and it's awesome. What a wonderful service you're providing!!

Thanks so much!

I am a yoga student from 5 years. Yoga is very important part of my life. When I eat for live
like this i will do yoga live too. I always get up early in the morning and i do yoga for one hour. It help me to work, mind make it fresh, body make healthy, always positive thinking.

Yoga today is the classiest, smartest, yoga online, featuring authentic and skilled yoga teachers. I am so happy and grateful to have found you...I feel so relaxed, limber and peaceful after a class.

Thank you.

I absolutely love yogatoday!!!!

I practice nearly everyday and am so grateful!!

All three teachers are excellent and have different gifts to offer!!

Thank you infinitely for Yoga Today.

My daily practice has helped me be flexible and open - both physically and spiritually. I especially love the bits of Kundalini practice!

I've been practicing with you daily for nearly two years now, and have seen huge changes physically and mentally as a result of your amazing classes.

Things have been really difficult for me personally of late, and at times I've felt like I couldn't go on. But every night I come home and I practice with you as soon as I get in, and it gives me a little sanctuary.

I'm taking my first ever visit to the States soon and am excited and nervous. Your in-flight yoga session couldn't have come at a better time.

You've not only inspired me to go deeper into the philosophy and history of yoga, but also to learn more about the beautiful place you film in, and I hope to visit Jackson one day.

Thank you for everything, Sarah, Neesha, Adi, Kim, and all the guys. I really cannot explain how much it means to me. Namaste.

THANK YOU SO MUCH Yoga Today.

It's really amazing and wonderful IDEA & contribution to all around the world. I am very greatful that I've found Yoga Today. Last time, I only practiced once a week only when I go to yoga class. Now almost everyday I do with YogaToday and feel very happy, fresh, peaceful & energetic whenever lesson complete. I really admire and inspired by all of you. THANKS again to all, those who made YogaToday happen :)

May all of your lives get better and better Everyday & in Everyway ~

I found myself in a job and a country where I was very unhappy and far away from Home. Having stumbled across your website, I embarked on a yoga lesson one day.

Within a few days, I began to feel like a black cloud was beginning to lift. I felt like I could begin to find the strength to make decisions about what I wanted out of life as a whole.

I thank Yoga Today for introducing me to something that makes me feel so much better in myself. Yoga began to give me the calmness to make the right choices about leaving a situation which was making me very unhappy.

I have moved back to my friends and family and feel like my life is going in the right direction again. I am still practicing, and everyday I feel like I have found something that I can hold on to for a long time.

Yoga is the art of training your mind, your body and your way of thinking to be as clean, efficient, and positive as possible. And for me, this is exactly what has happened. I thank Yoga Today for providing awesome classes that do all of the above, in a very relaxed, comfortable manner.

"all negative emotions in the body are caused by a disruption in the body's energy field, yoga along with meditation, stabilizes our energy field."

I'm so excited for the new format of YogaToday. I have been day dreaming about being able to pick and choose from ALL the classes, and it looks like my dream is coming true! YAY!

Again, I am forever grateful to YogaToday.
Namaste

I've been practicing with Yoga Today since the first year when it was an Podcast on iTunes. I have an autoimmune disease, Sarcoidosis, so reducing stress and staying limber is important. My schedule varies and taking a class locally would be very inconvenient. But Yoga Today allows me to choose my own class day and time. I love it! I have shared the site with all of my Facebook friends and Twitter followers.

I have been practicing yoga for approximately a year now, but I don't always have time to go through my usual schedule. I find the blog videos to be extremely helpful when I need to get practice in, but don't have a full hour to commit. Thank you for this invaluable site.

I love Yoga Today's daily classes. Every morning, Monday through Friday, I spend at least 30 minutes of my morning waking up my body, mind, and attitude with the daily class. The rest of my day, I feel better, stronger, more open, and just happier because of starting it out at yogatoday.com.

I am a 43 year old woman daily managing both fibromyalgia and bipolar disorder. I used to be a marathoner, but now have too many chronic injuries to continue with that.

Finding your site has been a godsend, as I also live in a very small town, and "real" yoga classes are hard to come by. Now, I can take a class from you whenever I like! I am finding your classes helpful not only in managing the effects of my disorders, but also because I am learning reasons for all poses, the language, etc.

I look forward to your upcoming "catalogue" of classes, and to seeing your efforts expand!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Being able to do yoga almost every morning re-orients my entire day. The shrieks of the kids and growls from work roll off the soul. What a gift you bring into my life. I first read about you in the LA Times and have been a regular devotee ever since. Very much appreciated.

As an International student in London, I'm having difficulties managing my time and money to catch yoga classes here. But thanks to Yoga Today, I can still practice yoga, maintain my strength and balancing my life. I am deeply thankful. Namaste.

I've developed a consistent home practice over the years, yet sometimes inspiration and creativity (not to mention high-level instruction) is missing.

From the beautiful Wyoming outdoor backdrops to the excellent teachers (thanks Neesha, Sarah, and Adi), Yoga Today has filled that void for me perfectly.

What a gift Yoga Today is to my life! With a job, two children, and house, I can only get to one maybe two yoga classes a week. With Yoga Today, my practice increases to five or six times a week. Thank You!

After a thyroid problem I found myself out of balance, out of shape, and depressed. I found your classes and became an addict. I really appreciate your humor and opportune comments in the classes. Nevertheless, I take my yoga hour very seriously. You have helped me to restore my self-esteem and my physical condition. Thank you.

I am awash with a wave of gratitude as I contemplate the enormous gift of Yoga Today. What a blessing to enjoy the teachings of such wise yoginis. You inspire my body, mind and soul to new heights and depths. Namaste.

As a college student going to school in the heart of bustling Manhattan, I have neither the time nor money to attend classes at a yoga studio.

My discovery of Yoga Today led me to practice in the security of my cozy apartment 5 times a week. It is the only way that I can escape the buzzing urban lifestyle and the tense demands of collegiate life.

Thank you so much Yoga Today! You have immensely changed the way I enjoy my life.

I never thought I could get so much out of yoga via the web! I started practicing 15 years ago, and yoga has been a constant source of balance and renewal for me. But, over the past few years, my practice seemed to be floundering. I just happened upon this site and have been amazed by the passion that has surged through my practice.

All three instructors have wonderfully unique approaches that are unbelievably complementary to a total practice. Even if one had never stepped into a yoga studio, I am convinced they could develop a deep and rewarding practice with Yoga Today.

Thank you for sharing your gifts.

I discovered Yoga Today when the site was mentioned on the Today Show. After going to the site, I knew this was a very special place I had discovered. Tonight I had the opportunity to follow today's lesson, and now know it will be a part of my daily life. I have been attending Hatha/Hot Yoga classes for the past 2 years. Thanks for having such a wonderful site where one can get away at home and experience a great class.

I look forward to tomorrow.

Thank you for your wonderful website! I love the convenience of being able to do yoga at any time of the day, and the ability to choose from a variety of archived programs. I am getting enormous benefits from yoga, both physically and mentally.

I am a singer and conductor, and it has done wonders for my strength and posture. I am going through some major changes in my life and it is an extremely stressful time - yoga has really helped me with that as well.

I am also telling all of my friends about your site. I am a big fan - thanks so much!

Just wanted to thank you for providing us with free yoga classes. I live in a small town and would have to drive 45 minutes to attend a class.

I've been practicing yoga for many years, and it is the one thing in my life that I have been able to stick with. Yoga Today has made it easier for me to continue with my daily practice. So again, I thank you.

After so many years of dancing I had to retire due to the wear and tear on my knees. Yoga has helped me stay in touch with my body without all of the excessive stress. I thoroughly enjoy your classes. The amazing scenery is definitely an added bonus. Keep up the amazing work! And thank you for making your classes available for everyone online for free; it is truly appreciated.

I love your site. You have wonderful classes and each teacher has her own unique take on the practice of yoga.

I've been enjoying your site on a regular basis now for a little over a month, and I can already tell that it has had a positive effect on my health and over all well being. For example, my digestion has improved considerably, I am no longer have pain and irregularity. Thank you.

It is free, yes, and it is delivered with such love. What you offer here is amazing. There is a true commitment to bringing quality yoga into peoples' homes. I'm inspired to do more for my community.

I have gone through my yoga cd's many times, and I do still learn from the practice. The Yoga Today practice though is ever changing and encourages me to learn and expand my practice.

I'm truly grateful for the wonderful service you are offering to the world. It's beauty.

My husband and I practice at night after our kids go to sleep. The format of Yoga Today has not only given us the ability to practice together but it has sent ripples throughout our lives. We are both changed physically and emotionally by our practice. We have incorporated many of the subtle messages that yoga teaches into our lives at work, with our peers, as parents and with each other.

Thank you Sarah for the depth of your teachings. Thank you Adi for rigorously attuning me to myself. Thank you Neesha for bringing such bright happiness into our practice. And thank you Yoga Today for the invaluable service you provide.

I began practicing yoga consistently in 2006 after separating from my husband at the time. I was 70 lbs. overweight and had done yoga a few times before but not consistently and had never really done any type of exercise program consistently.

I began going to a yoga/pilates studio and made a commitment to the practice to aid in both physical and emotional healing. By mid 2008, I had lost 50 lbs. and found that I needed to introduce some low impact aerobic exercise into my program to help loose that last 20 lbs.

I joined a very nice health club, that did offer some yoga classes. I found the classes to be adequate but more corporate than I had been used to. I began searching online for yoga classes and came upon "Yoga Today". I am so blessed to have found your site. Your instructors offer the spiritual connection that I was missing along with routines that challenge my practice.

Thank you so much for offering such high quality production and instruction and for truly making a difference in the lives of many people all over the world.

Namaste

I love Yoga Today. I am 70yrs old and I still feel the need to exercise and try to be more flexible. I have tried Yoga off and on and label myself still a beginner. Your program allows me to log on in my own time. The instructors are becoming my friends.

Let me begin by saying that I have tried all sorts of exercise programs such as gym memberships, tapes, DVD's, home equipment and I have failed miserably at them all, unless there was someone there cheering me on....telling me it would all be worth it.

I was introduced to Yoga Today by a co-worker six months ago due to my chronic neck, shoulder, and lower back pain. I began very slowly with the beginner classes, thinking this would be something else I would not continue. But to my surprise, I was hooked after just a few classes.

I signed up for an eight week long, once a week, local yoga class in February '09. I continued the on-line Yoga Today classes through-out the rest of the week. I soon discovered that it is much more convenient to do Yoga Today classes at home.

Even though I can't balance on one leg, I give it my best in every class. I love the 'All-Levels Hip Openers' classes, since I sit at a desk all day. My hips thank you after I am done!! Keep those classes coming.

My chronic pain is tremendously better and I no longer have to depend on muscle relaxers to get me through the day. I am developing muscle and can calm myself throughout the day at the office with my breath.

Thank you so much for providing this service for everyone to experience. You inspire me everyday and I always have something positive to look forward too.

I just wanted to thank you for all the work that your instructors do. I have a young child at home and simply don't make it to class as often as I would like. This site has been the salvation of my practice and my sanity. Shanti!

I want to thank you so much for offering this incredible service. I travel 100 percent with work and find such peace knowing that in every city I can receive consistently wonderful instruction regardless of anything else I encounter. Breath exercises on the plane can only take me so far =) these lessons go the extra mile.

As a former resident of Boulder (Colo.), I also take great joy in every day seeing the landscape with which I grew up.

It both amazes and reassures me when people give so much of themselves. With my sincerest gratitude ...

Yoga Today has set my life on a new course. It's that simple.

I have found a comfortable, fun, stimulating and exciting place to practice. Thank you for providing this service :)

Not quite two and a half years ago, I tried my first yoga class ever. Living in Texas at the time and was told about your website. I'd never attempted yoga before, but my friend, Kristi and I gave it a try in the living room of my apartment. Within 3 days we were hooked, even thinking it would be fun to teach yoga to others someday.

Through a crazy turn of events last year I received my chance to enroll in teacher training earlier than I ever thought possible. It was such an amazing journey! I completed my 200+hr training through the Yama Therapeutics (The Yama Studio) in Baltimore, MD last month. This morning I taught my first Rise & Shine Yoga class, one of two classes I have been given the honor of teaching a local studio.

I wanted to thank you for getting me started on my yoga practice (and path) and continuing to be here for everyone who ventures to your classrooms. I wish all of you the very best and hope to share yoga just as you have helped me.

I love supporting my local yoga teachers, but times are a bit tough right now, so adding a couple of your awesome classes each week is really gonna help in this household.

I'm stoked to have found you!

I am suffering from Neurodermitis and Asthma my whole life and Yoga helped me being relieved from the itching and gave me back my breath.

With you I can practice every day.

Thanx!

Hello,

I recently moved to the US from the UK. I have suffered from lower back pain for years and this coupled with being in a new country pushed me to try something new. I had previously tried yoga when I was 14 but couldn't take to it. I had a feeling yoga could help my back so I searched the internet for a taster before I enrolled in classes.

I started doing yoga from yogatoday about 2 months ago I am hooked. So much so that I never made it to a yoga class. My back pain has gone and I am able to walk a mile without feeling the need to bend over and touch my toes.

I love the setting of yogatoday and I love the instructors, how fun they are and how good they are at explaining poses. I feel like I can safely adjust myself accordingly even although they aren't with me.

I especially enjoy when the instructor explains what a pose is for. For example open the heart for compassion, reach back in cobra as a shedding of old ways of being. I find this information gives me more strength and purpose in my poses.

Thank you for the gift of yoga today. You have helped me to obtain peace in my body as well as settling my mind daily.

My name is Bridget and I'm just finishing my undergraduate studies in Psychology & Studio Art at the University of Miami. I have always been involved in athletics- basketball, track, cross country, and dance- but have just begun practicing yoga a couple of months ago.

I planned to join the classes at the University's Wellness Center, but had trouble affording their rates. So, I began trying different podcasts and web videos. I want you to know, after being overwhelmed and trying MANY different sources, YogaToday has been the best.

I am always eager to see what the new video will bring! All 3 instructors on the site are wonderful.

I really appreciate what YogaToday has to offer. I am now completely enthralled and hooked on yoga! It leaves me feeling more energetic and strong every day, while providing a spiritual focus that I previously lacked.

Thank you!

Hi

I first got aware of yoga and meditation in the seventies when i grew up. I picked up some postures and made up some of my own. Ever since i've been wishing to know more.

Thanks to yoga-today i can practice three-four times a week. It is great!

Thanks again!

Johan

It's been a year since my first yoga teacher training. I come from a relatively small city and I've found my biggest challenge to be finding a teacher from whom I can continue to learn and grow my own practice. The classes on YogaToday have been a wonderful opportunity for me to learn new postures, flows and approaches to postures. In each class there is a nice balance between the philosophical and physiological aspects of the yoga tradition.

I'm filled with immense gratitude that YogaToday is available to draw inspiration from. Adi, Neesha and Sarah guide fabulously balanced classes that I learn something new from everyday.

Peace from the east

Ara

I was taking yoga classes for a year but was having a hard time finding a class early in the morning. Yoga Today has been a great alternative because it is there any time I want it. It has saved me a bit of money as well.

Thanks!

I want to thank Yogatoday for allowing me to be at peace, with myself and for helping end the constant battle between mind and body.

My migraines that have plagued me for most of my teen years are a distant memory, and I have become more flexible than i thought was possible.

Yogatoday has changed my life and i am eternally thankful for the good work.

Thank You Adi for your core strength class it has made me stronger in so many ways.

Sophia

What a fabulous gift!!!

I am full of gratitude for these fantastic yoga lessons.

In today's paper I discovered your site. What a great discovery. I am an avid runner and biker and last year I committed myself to practicing yoga so that I could possibly improve my flexibility/performance and avoid any unnecessary injuries.

I am my 50's and I love what yoga has done for my body as well as my mind. Finding your site means that I can increase my yoga practice to 4 or 5 times a week.

Thank you and NAMASTE,

Nancy

I recently moved to a small town, with no group yoga within hours. I do yoga today classes three times a week now, with a friend.

I have found when I go to cities and can practice with others, that the excellent instruction on this site has given me a great foundation and has improved my technique a lot.

Thank you so much for this site!!!

Due to the economy, I have not been able to practice at my local studio. I truly appreciate these online classes!

This is such an amazing website!

i have been doing yoga almost everyday with you guys for several months now. i cannot believe the strength and flexibility i have gained.

all three instructors have something different to offer and i thank you all. i look forward to many more beautiful classes and wish you all the best!

thank you

kelly

Hello!

Doing yoga with Adi, Neesha and Sarah is so great - thank you very much.

Since I started yoga 2004 I never had problems doing yoga at home and since I found yogatoday I'm doing yoga on my mat at home 3 to 4 times a week. I no longer go to the yogastudio because it takes nearly one hour (one way) so it is wonderful for me to have the teachers at home :-)

I appreciate it so much!

Mariat

I do Sound Therapy with Tibetan Singing Bowls and a Gong, so I am actively working with other people's energy as much as with my own. This is a website that explains more about what I do: The Belvidere Wealth of Life Meetup Group

I find it crucial to literally have the experience of strengthening physical and spiritual change in my whole being in whatever I do.

Every time I go to your website and do yoga with you, later on there is a delicate yet profound shift in the way I feel. I especially like Neesha's sessions because of how much they cover, yet, in a peaceful and steady way; different levels of difficulty are included in every class which I think is great.

You help me to gently step out of my comfort zone and accomplish more than I could envision for myself. I am learning all the creative postures that I didn't even know they existed.

Thank you for your work and being;)

Sylwia

Everyday I do yoga with this wonderful website. Thank you. :)

Even if I'm a beginner and I've never practice yoga before I found those exsercises possible to do easily and they are very helpful, relaxing and good for my health, my mind and my soul.

Just want to say I think what you are doing is fabulous! Keep up the great work...

I have been practicing yoga since I was 16. (Almost 10 years.) I started in Hatha Yoga, and I loved the deep focus and relaxation I got from the poses. I also enjoyed the sense of lightness and humor the instructor shared with the class.

Since that very early experience, I have always turned to yoga to ground me. I studied dance intensively in college, and always incorporated a strong yoga component in my choreography. When I needed inspiration, I knew I could draw on yoga's knowledge of body mechanics and strength.

I continued to practice yoga, mainly Hatha, through my pregnancy. I used yoga breathing during my labor, and opened my hips using some of the squatting poses. I was able to have a completely natural, drug-free birth, and I attribute it largely to my ability to focus my mind -- another thing learned on the yoga mat.

Finding Yoga Today was a real blessing to me. In the very early morning, after feeding my baby and putting him back to bed, I love to follow one of Adi's Ashtanga sequences. She has the same lightness and joy that I once experienced with my first yoga teacher. It's a great way to wake up, and after an hour of muscle work I feel strong and prepared to face my day.

Additionally, my dancer's body is returning. I had gained 50 pounds during my pregnancy and lost a lot of muscle tone, but using yoga has gotten me back into shape in less than a month. I feel proud of my body's ability to change, and I thank Yoga Today for giving me the tools to do it!

Love,

Claire

I found this website about a month ago and I haven't been the same since.

YogaToday gives me something to look forward to every morning before I start my hectic days. I am truly and utterly thankful for this wonderful site and its amazing instructors.

I live in Maine where it is very snowy and cold. With your classes I not only get a beautiful class for free everyday but I also get to escape the winter by listening to the birds chirp or the leaves blowing in the background as I practice my daily yoga with Adi, Neesha and Sarah. I greatly thank you all for making this such an available class to so many.

Love & Light

Rozlynne

I recently moved to Buenos Aires from Toronto and worried that my practice would falter while I learn the language and get my bearings. I was pleased to find Yoga Today as a way to keep my practice fresh and new.

Thanks so much.

Melanie

I found Yoga Today during a really restless night, I was going through a difficult time, I felt like my entire life was just not working. Something said in one of the classes really stuck with me that night, and has kept me coming back.

I remember the essence of the statement was that you can begin to cultivate your true self on the mat, and eventually, it will carry over to off the mat. When I heard it I could only hope it was true, and now after a few months I am assured that it absolutely is true.

I try to do a class four times a week. Thanks to the teachings in the classes I can forgive myself if I don't! I love any of the classes that focus on enhancing spiritual qualities through yoga practice.

My deepest gratitude goes to all of you ladies at Yoga Today for being so generous with your knowlege and teaching!

Know that you are fulfilling the intention you so lovingly set forth.

I have practiced yoga on and off since I was 16 and have more recently explored it through various yoga schools in different countries. I have always found an affiliation with the theory and I truly feel that my body and my composition is suited and benefits from the practice.

When I returned to the UK from overseas I was disappointed with the videos, DVDs and local classes that I found as they did not teach yoga in the way of the yogis but more in a superficial westernised and 'english' way :) then I found yoga today.

I was diagnosed with a spinal birth defect, shuermanns disease, a couple of years a go and yoga is the best form of exercise for strengthening my spine, correcting my posture and, through these two facets, relieving the problems my condition causes.

I enjoy your classes so much that I am hooked on logging on and joining you in all your varied practices. I enjoy doing a different class each day and learning new postures with you.

Yoga today has become a natural part of my life rather than the exercise routine that I tried to maintain before - which seemed more of a chore.

Thank you so much. I think it is amazing that you offer this to an international audience and touch so many lives.

Namaste

PS will you be doing any meditation classes?

I am practicing Yoga since nearly 3 years, but with your site I am really practicing every day now.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much YogaToday! All three of you are inspiring, true teachers.

I had resisted yoga for many years, always feeling drawn to it but pulling away, as I knew it would be a life change. I've been practicing for just over a year and not until I found your site did I truly realize what it means to commit to yoga and to life with all of the utter openness, courage, and strength that it requires from body, heart, and mind.

THANK YOU.

I have been teaching yoga for 7 years, and I am in the midst of a major life transition. I'm not currently teaching, and I have found my daily practice so encouraged and uplifted by your three unique and perfectly balancing teaching styles.

It really keeps me going, uplifted and seeing the big picture with healthy perspective at a difficult time in life.

infinite gratitude!

Delphina

After two years of on and off "yoga" at the gym I still wasn't at the level of flexibility I wanted to be at, I couldn't even get my heels to the floor during downward facing dog.

I have achieved more flexibility after one yogatoday video then during the whole two years at the gym, and I'm happy to say I easily got my heels to the floor only ten minutes into the video.

Thank you.

Thank you for making my day so much more beautiful every day!

I'm so happy I found you!

Blessings for all.

Thank you so much to Yoga Today!

I've developed a tremendous amount of strength and balance, both physically and mentally, from practicing your classes daily! I tell everyone about this wonderful website!

Natalie

So grateful for YogaToday! Many thanks to those of you who make it all possible.

When I can't get to a class, when I'm tired of the same old video - you are always there!

Bwell...

May you be blessed. In light of such difficult economic times when affording yoga at a studio is nearly impossible... I find all of you.

Your gift to the world is astounding.

Namaste.

I discovered yogatoday several years ago. I had very little range of motion in the L hip. The 3 instructors frequently talked about accepting one-self in the place that one is. At first I found this preposterous. I had an pronounced limp since 14 y.o. and couldn't fathom accepting my handicap!

I had to modify almost every position that I tried. Nevertheless, I could not stay away from the mat for very long, as the exercise helped with the pain, stiffness, and general mental health.

Yoga did not do anything magical/miraculous for me. --Except, one day, I realized that I no longer loathed my body. I was fine with imperfection. I noticed that other people seemed to accept me also.

Two weeks ago I had a total L hip replacement. I am coming back to yoga slowly & cautiously. But already I am able to bend like I haven't been able to in 15 years. It feels like bending an elbow backwards- like the impossible is happening.

I want to thank everyone at yogatoday for the invaluable service you all are providing. I especially found Adi's recent blog on injuries heartening.

Keep up the great work!!!

I can't even begin to tell you how thankful I am for YogaToday.

I started doing yoga about a month ago, but since I'm a poor college student I haven't been able to take actual classes. After finding some videos on YouTube, I began doing yoga everyday, and eventually found YogaToday.

I have suffered from severe anxiety my entire life, and since I've been doing yoga, a sense of peace, well being, and joy has permeated my life. I have even curbed panic attacks by doing yoga.

I'm amazed at the short amount of time in which yoga has transformed my existence and allowed me to take control of my body and release tension & anxiety. These are things that have been plaguing my body relentlessly. I can't believe how much yoga has helped me, and I am looking forward to path yoga takes me down as I progress.

Thanks for bringing Yoga to my home where I can do the do the class evry night. I live in a small community and the classes are usually during my work hours.

I tell everyone I know about Yoga today and how it has changed my inner being and physical health!!

Thanks

Thank you so much for existing.

I am a busy musician and I use yoga today about 4 times a week. Without it, I do not even want to think about how sore I would remain. Playing guitar and singing is very tough on your body and yoga is the only thing to help stress but mostly for me it keeps me limber enough to haul equipment, travel, and perform on stage for hours.

I tell people even if they can only do 15 minutes to try it as it is SUCH a life saver.

i've been here just over a year now and thought i'd say 'hi'. after suffering a slipped disc, i was warned against doing yoga by a few doctors (!). but one thing i am certain of, i'd be confined to a wheelchair by now without it. as it is, i've never felt more strong and alive in my sacrum. i owe much of that to yogatoday.

thanks to all who help make this site and keep it free of charge (is there anything else free on the net that compares in value?). special thanks to Adi: you are a genius and a goddess.

namaste

I am extremely thankful for these online classes.

I was an avid weight lifter until I herniated a disc in my lower back. I discovered this website during my search for healing exercises. It's great to have found something so fulfilling and beneficial.

I am especially grateful for the class dedicated to relieving sciatica it worked wonders for me. I'd like to find that class again and purchase a dvd.

Anyway thank you for this awesome website.

Best,

Jed

You 3 rock my world!!

I have recently finished Yoga Teacher Training and watching your classes and blogs help me so much as a teacher.

THANK YOU ALL!!!

I have had a very stressful teenagehood. I found life in all aspects extremely difficult to deal with through the mental abuse from my father and the stresses of school life.

As a result of this I turned to food to comfort me and i have gained a lot of weight and unhealthy living. I expressed my concern to a friend who told me that meditation and Yoga could help me, I typed these keywords into the internet and Yogatoday came up.

I was delighted to find classes at my level of zero, and have followed them for a month now. i have to admit i found it very tough at first but as I gained physical strength it became easier. I am not all the way there but I am almost.

Yogatoday has helped me open my mind and body to the greatness of Yoga and i want to thank you Yogatoday.

Hi!

Thanks so much for this great site! Thanks to you I'm now able to practice yoga every day. I really love your classes. Please continue like that. With the best wishes from snowy Zurich!

I love yoga today. It was a great tip from a friend @ a bachelorette party.

I have a regular yoga studio where I love to practice. But with a 4-year old, 2 dogs, and a husband with a crazy schedule I can't make it as much as I'd like. Yoga Today helps me find peace inside, when I can't get outside.

Thanks guys.

you are awesome. being able to start everyday with yoga has changed my life.

congratulations!

I greatly appreciate this site.

Thank you!

In the middle of the winter, it's so nice to be able to hear the sounds of nature while practicing yoga indoors.

Yogatoday has revitalized my practice.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I tried yoga last summer but my impatience blocked me from really appreciating it. I wanted to give yoga another try, and was fortunate to find YogaToday.

I have suffered from an eating disorder for 5 years, and when I tried yoga this time with YogaToday, I was able to truly release all of my mental thoughts and surrender to the poses. I am now in my strongest state of recovery that I have ever been in, and I thank YogaToday for re-introducing me to yoga.

With yoga I can truly connect with my body at a much deeper level, so I end every class feeling refreshed, stronger, and with a renewed sense of belief that I can stay in this recovered state.

Thank you.

I have tried several exercises, but with none I have observed results as rapid as with Yoga.

I am 23 years old and feel better than ever...

Thank you Yoga Today

I Love Yoga!!

I love to work out and would go to the gym 5 times a week for cardio and weights... till I became pregnant with twin boys. Between carrying two 6lb babies and a recovering from a c-section I lost almost all my muscle tone.

I was fortunate to find this web site and the amazing instructors and began doing yoga for the first time in my life, and I love it. I have achieved results that no amount of gym time has ever given me. I look forward to every day, trying something new, and to the continuing transformation I will achieve both physically and mentally.

Thank You so much for giving this gift of yoga.

Can this be for real? I am training for marathon and very tight. I attend yoga class but need to do more than a once a week session. Yoga Today provides just what I need.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for this site.

I have always wanted to do yoga but could never afford the classes and doing it in a gym was a struggle for me. I have been working on mindfulness and other skills as part of internal work on myself (therapy) and now have the opportunity to continue that practice with yoga everyday in my home.

I feel happier, more centered, more capable and just more alive and whole than I ever remember feeling before thank you so much for this gift.

The spiritual insight I receive from these classes provides me with the grounding I need to enjoy each day to the fullest.

Many thanks to all of you!!

I've been practicing yoga off and on since 1999. I began practicing daily on my own when I was in Peace Corps in Namibia in 2003. Though I've had classes, and books my practice seemed limited.

Then about three years ago I found Yoga Today through iTunes. Huzzah, finally a teacher I could have daily instruction from. Within the first six months I saw improvement like I never had before. I even find myself approaching life with my heart open, core tight and shoulders back.

Thanks!!

As a long time sufferer of depression and chronic "laziness", it's always been extremely hard to get out and find the time and energy to bring yoga into my life, even though I've always wanted to for some amount of years. I resorted to books and a few other explanatory sites, but none of them were all that helpful, and fitting classes into my lifestyle wasn't very easy.

But, ever since I discovered YogaToday, somewhere around the new year, I've been able to practice daily and have had a remarkable change of optimism and physical energy in my life. I can't thank you guys enough for putting the work into making this so accessible to people like me!

Even my dog likes to do yoga! (She loves stretching on my mat, at least!)

I'm definitely hooked -- I always look forward to what YogaToday has in store!

Thank you so much,

Liesl

I love yogatoday!

I live sort of far out and (especially when it's cold) I don't want to leave my house. I do yogatoday about every other day.

Love it!!

Greetings from Portland !!

Just wanted to say ~ Every day I look forward to my time with you. All three of you have individually helped me expand my understanding and my practice. You have made me larger and stronger and more peacefully alive and I GREATLY appreciate the effort you've put in here at this site.

Thank you, too, to all technicians and editors and everyone behind the scenes. The classes are so beautifully presented that I send people to the site just to see see how nice it all is. I feel like you care about what we're seeing and that's really great. Thank you.

Yoginis - all your instructions are so clear that I will go a minute without watching the screen, just following your voices, and I'll look up and find that I'm still with you. (And, I love Neesha's way saying of things like "Good! That's a different variation!":))

I could go on and on, but basically, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much.

(Adi - you were the teacher of the first video I saw - and ever since then, I have loved and looked forward to your classes. You could say that you hooked me, and I have appreciated all your teachings. I have opened myself up to my "solidity" a lot, and the powerful arrangement of my energy, since learning from you. It has expanded me and helped my presence in my inverted and one-legged poses - which has changed, uh, everything. (And also grace.) Thank you.:)

(Sarah! I have seen two of your videos now - the first was the 7Tibetan Rituals (?), and I remember thinking "What a strong woman!" You are so clearly present in your body when you practice that it's a great thing to see. It's like you have an innate faith that we can do this. That we ALL can do this. Like you are feeling and expressing the immediate connection between action and thought - and it is so powerful. I love it. You are inspiring and energize my life. Thank you for sharing your path.

Neeshaaa! Thank you for being my first introduction to Anusara yoga. It's a wave of deep knowledge and I'm still totally awash in it. It has changed my practice deeply and given me strength in areas I really needed. I DEEPLY cherish your classes and expression and I learn from you every time. Thank you so so so so much .

So, anyways, thank you all again. I've studied yoga on and off (mostly off) for about 6 years. Something has changed in my spirit lately and yoga has become a lot more important ~ so I'm learning a lot right now - about all of it - and about how yoga fits into peace and a clearer stronger existence ~ ~ and you guys are all part of that ... ~ so thank you for the energy you put here.

I am a yoga teacher myself and can be quite picky about yoga and absolutely love YogaToday.

I discovered it in 2007 and it has been such a find since I recently had a baby and am not able to get to the studio for a class as often. I can squeeze in a hour during my baby's nap and this is quality yoga.

I especially love Neesha because Anusara is necessary for my weaker, more flexible body type. I had sacrum pain during my pregnancy and realized I needed to strengthen that area. Neesha has helped me do this. I expect to have an easier second pregnancy because of this.

I appreciate you immensely for providing this free service. Your viewers are blessed.

Thank you so much for this wonderful site. Each lesson that I follow gives me new insight and challenges.

Your generosity of time and energy is so very much appreciated.

A friend told me about this website and I love it! I just moved and have been searching for a yoga studio I like with a decent price and class times that fit my schedule but had no luck. Your classes are perfect - challenging, well-done, and the right price!

Now I can practice yoga daily - thank you!

My friend Maggie told me about this site. Today I tried my first class, a restorative one focused on spinal twists. It was fantastic and am looking forward to practicing more.

I especially love the beautiful views of the Tetons.

I'm a dancer....and like a lot of us are... I'm unemployed. I can't afford to get to dance class more than twice a week, and I certainly can't afford to get to a Yoga class in London.

So along I go to you tube, and lo and behold I find this website. Brilliant! I now have a yoga/dance studio in half of my room, my office/living space in the other half (it's not that big a room, but you would be surprised what a little bit of ingenuity can do !)

With this has come an incredible sense of freedom from time/financial constraints, and enormous benefit, for both body and mind and the soul that lives within these four walls. (and freedom of worry that I am not going to be strong enough for my next dance contract)

I thank all at Yogatoday for this amazing opportunity. The chance to feel a part of the energy of the mountains and forests. The escape from the noise and the hustle, and for the daily reminder that this world is bigger than me, which gives me the strength to keep going in the face of daily adversity, and the clear sight to see that the challenges are really doors closing for a while, making me look into another room that I have never been in, to see what I can learn.

I am sending this with love and light !! Keep shining !!

I transitioned from a sedentary lifestyle to an active one.

Yoga Today has helped me feel those years of negligence melt away.

After having followed yoga classes given by such a great teachers in Australia, I was having trouble finding an equivalent here in Portugal. You can imagine how lucky I feel a friend mentioned yogatoday.

All three teachers are amazing, but the classes of Neesha and the way she points out things are really taking me to a next level and better understanding.

I am very grateful!

I'm an owl biologist, so in the spring/summer I spend all my time in the field. In the fall winter I am condemned to life in front of the computer until the next spring. Practicing with Yoga today helps maintain my sanity and improves my outlook on life.

Last week I had two small victories.

First: I was finally able to do a head-stand with my hands clasped together (didn't get the legs straight, but I can work on that). It finally clicked when Neesha was focusing on squeezing the shoulder blades together. Now I feel what everyone is talking about.

Second: I jumped through my hands, YES! I have been working on that one for two years with Adi. OK, I'm using blocks, but it's a huge victory for me.

I am so happy, this feeling of success permeates the rest of my life. People have noticed. I smile lots more.

Thank you for offering your time and classes. You have changed my life.

I have been practicing yoga for 30 years and only yesterday found out about Yoga today. I have just done my first session with you and it was lovely. I shall be visiting on the days I don't have a class. I found it to be very spiritually aware which I particularly enjoy.

Thank you for bringing this to us.

Helen

I am so grateful for these classes.

I'm a long time yoga practitioner and the circumstances of my life right now make it difficult for me to attend classes outside my home. Thanks to Yoga Today I continue my daily practice and it makes a huge difference in the quality of my life.

I am recovering from a broken wrist and have to modify some postures and take it easier than I used to and that has been a great learning experience. I love the variety of classes, the differences in teaching styles and the opportunity these classes give me to take time out of each day and breathe.

Thanks for all you do.

Dear Sarah,

Thank you for the wonderful sunset relaxation classes. With my heavy business school schedule, I can't attend in person classes during the week. Practicing with Yoga Today online is the bright spot of my day! I love the sunset classes to wind down with, and hope you continue to offer them.

My sincere appreciation,

Jodie

About a year and a half ago, I was experiencing sleepless nights, leg pain, unmanageable stress, a pinching sensation in my lungs from being hunched over at my desk for 9 hours a day... oh, the list was just too long. I often visited the doctor because I was sick all the time. I needed a CHANGE in lifestyle. So, while researching Yoga and its health benefits, I came across your site- and something in me clicked.

I decided to just try taking one class. One led into many- 3-4 times a week. Today I come to you more centered, less stressed, off anti-depressants, pain free, and SO happy. I haven't been to the doctor in what seems like forever. I am hooked- mentally and physically. I love moving, breathing, learning about my body... Yoga has naturally become a part of my life and mindset.

I cannot thank you enough for bringing Yoga to us through Yoga Today.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I love yoga today and i am just so so so glad i have found this special place!

yoga has made me feel so much better in my body and mind. i think more teenagers should start to do yoga instead of judging it. I hardly know of any teenager that actually does yoga and i think it is such a shame, they have no idea how much it can help them.

Neesha, Sarah and Adi, you guys are the best and i want to thank you SO much for the brilliant way that you teach and help us.

thanks again!

Let me just say that I LOVE yoga today. I am so grateful, that you post these free sessions, because they are wonderful.

I never thought I could be someone who liked yoga, although I was always into fitness--either running, lifting, etc.....I never stretched. I took a few yoga classes at my gym, and didn't like them very much.

Well flash forward a couple of years, and I am addicted to yoga. I started an internet search on meditations, and fell upon the concept of kundalini yoga, which is Amazing! I did your session from You tube, and found your site to have a better selection, longer duration, and just by visiting this site again, I already feel more peaceful.

Just wanted to say "thanks" for doing a great thing.

I discovered Yoga Today two and a half years ago at the time of a very challenging transition period in my life. Through opening up my heart and my hamstrings, I was able to embrace the changes and move forward with joy, humility, humor and gratitude.

Yoga has now become an integral part of my daily life. No matter where I travel to in the world, be it for work or pleasure, Yoga Today helps me to bring fresh perspective to the joy of living every day. I look forward to the trip I plan to take some day to Wyoming where I will hopefully get to practice in person with Neesha, Sarah and Adi.

Thank you!

I'm so excited!!

I discovered I love yoga not too long ago. Now I'm pregnant again and broke, now that Ive found this website I can do something that makes me happy and healthy everyday in my bedroom.

Thank you Thank you!!

Last Saturday while riding the gondola here in Jackson Hole, I learned of this site from a really cute girl w/an intriguing vibe in her eyes. She was with her mom who was visiting from upstate NY; having grown up skiing in the Catskills, and knowing the benefits of yoga to skiers over 30... I wanted to say so, and she seemed proud to be involved in producing "yoga today" but someone else was making jokes about their dog doing 4 poses every morning. So I remained quiet, but let me revisit by saying "right on GIRL-mad props"

Thanks,

John

Thank you so much for creating this site!

My work life has become a very busy, stressful, and negative place recently and it is through learning and practicing with you that I am starting to find the strength and positivity to get through those uncomfortable and negative situations.

Thank you all so much!

I'm 19yrs old. I'm a very active person and recently I decided to start doing yoga because it would help me with my grappling competitions and stress. So I tried to find some classes, but none of them fit what I was looking for, so i went and got a dvd.

The very next day my Sensei told me about this site. I tried it out and unfortunately was interrupted a bit so I didn't get the full scale of how it really worked. I wanted to do it in the mornings, before work. To do that I had to get up an hour early and that worried me a bit because I thought after I would be tired all day. Well, I finally bucked up and did it on a wed. morning and that was the first day in a very long time I didn't feel like smashing my face into the floor and knocking off some z's in the middle of my day. It was AMAZING!!

The instructors were through-o(:P) and I felt like I had accomplished something great because HOLY COW YOGA IS HARD! But it is so rewarding.

Ive been doing it every morning, the hour always seems to fly by and before I was doing yoga I would be cracking my neck all the time...eww I know..:(. But I had to because it was so tight. Now ...I don't have any of that tightness and being an athlete and hairstylist I work my upper body very hard and I'm so impressed and pleased with what you have helped me to accomplish.

Thank you for taking the time to do this every day and keeping it interesting. It really has helped me in many ways and I know it will continue to.

Blessed Be.

I am 59 years old and got introduced to Yoga 4 years ago in Kuala Lumpur. After practicing twice a week I felt a difference in me (body and mind) and I wanted to improve this feeling even more.

I had to move back to Germany (village). No worries about finding a yogaclass and I was gratefull to attend a class once a week. What a JOY when my husband found YOGA TODAY. After taking the first class ....I am so fascinated with all of the 3 Yogamasters. I try as much as I can not to miss a class.

Life is so good to me and I am thankful for the wonderful opportunity to take my Yoga class when ever I am ready for it with my personal Guru.

I wish all of you a worldwide success and hopefully endless Yoga practise.

May PEACE LOVE and JOY be always with you

Gudrun

I recently moved to Germany from the Pacific North West, and I am so happy with your site. I was having a hard time finding a Yoga class to fit into my schedule, and not speaking German was also difficult. Yoga Today is the perfect solution, and easy on my wallet as well. I truly appreciate all that you do.

I would also like to commend the instructors. I have taken many Yoga classes and I find that Adi, Neesha, and Sarah are all so wonderful - and different enough that there is variety. There also seems to be some congruency with poses throughout the classes, which helps as each teacher explains poses in a slightly different manner- it's perfect.

I have been practicing with Yoga Today almost daily, and not only has my practice become more advanced, but it is truly one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I love the scenery as well! (even though it makes me a little homesick :)

Namaste

I love yoga and the high quality classes you provide.

My daughter Ashley has been watching dad and has already perfected the downward dog! Another yogi in the making!

Thank you so VERY much for your site.

Last year I was working full time and could afford a membership to a local studio. I recently returned to school and could not renew my membership so when I was yearning for Yoga, I found your site and am so thankful that I did.

I think I practice more than I did with the membership and have not sacrificed great positive instructors. My roommate and I enjoy turning our house into a mock studio everyday we practice. This site really helps me get through the tough Wisconsin winters as well as save a few dollars for other life necessities such as food. I tell all my friends about your site and really hope they participate!!

Thanks for the site. Thanks for your great instruction and variety!

I am very pleased that I found this website.

Every day I come across new and challenging exercises. I started practicing yoga about two years ago and since then it became my private space for relaxation and self discipline.

What inspires me most is that it gives me this opportunity to forget about the

Hi,

I just wanted to say a big big thank you to Yoga Today for your wonderful free yoga classes. At our organisation, we hold internet yoga classes twice a week. We are all very impressed with the quality and range of classes that you offer. Because the podcasts are free, it has made yoga very accessible to people who are keen on yoga but who are unable to afford to pay for taught classes.

I personally, have learned a lot from your classes. I particularly like how the instructors often explain what each asana is doing for the body and how it affects us physically and emotionally.

So again, on behalf of our organisation, thanks Yoga Today!

cheers,

Julie

I love this.

Our rec center offers yoga but at times I can't go. I love the variety of yoga and the availability. I am currently in a hotel room in Cleveland,OH waiting to watch my brother win the US Men's National Figure Skating Title and this practice helps to relax me before what will be an Amazing evening.

Thank you so much

When there is a snow storm or for some other reason I cannot make it to a yoga class, it is great I can turn to Yogatoday to do a practice. Also I watch it to review some of the poses I am working on.

Thank you for this wonderful resource.

i just wanted to say a huge thankyou for such a fantastic tool.

i was an absolute beginner to yoga and i have only been practising daily for a month but already i feel a really positive change in my mind and body.

thanks so much!

I've had issues with my browser and player to the point that I could only do a yogatoday class with audio. It was so discouraging, I found excuses not to do my yoga. I am now SO thrilled I can download classes with iTunes, and that the website is also offering short classes at a lower (but no less effective!) quality that does not stop every few seconds when I try to play it! Thank you so very much!

I have felt the difference, and now I have no excuse now that there are even short 10 minute classes offered. I love Neesha, Adi and Sarah, and have found no videos that give me as satisfying classes as I have with these women.

Thank you again, so much.

i have been wanting to do yoga for along time - and being in high school a lot of my friends aren't into it! since i have found yoga today i have noticed increased flexible and core strength!! it has absolutely helped me with my sport - hockey - with strength, balance, flexibility, will power and inner peace.

THANK YOU so much!! i do it everyday! it helps me stay focused, balanced and rejuvenated!

Namaste - Alex

I'm reconnecting with yoga today, and enjoying my body much more. Thank you ladies for your inspiration, calming touch and nurturing classes. A much needed Yoga for skiers gave me just what I needed after a very stressful few months!

Keep it up to keep us going...cheers.

Thank you for offering Yoga Today. I am enjoying the classes all the way from Sweden where it is dark and cold compared to the Floridian climate I moved from 6 months ago. The classes have been wonderful to help me stay centered through the transition of a new country, language, and climate.

Hi Yoga Today! Began practicing with you 2 years ago... and am proud to say I just finished Yoga Teacher Training! I have started to teach, and hopefully will start changing peoples lives the way you changed mine!

My son Jack 6, loves to practice with you too :)

~Peace

I participated in today's session and loved it. What a great idea for getting some variety (with the expertise of a teacher) into daily practice.

i love yoga today, its explained very well so you can go at your own limit, its tough! its great to imagine being in the countryside and i feel great after it.

I love the way they explain why you have to get into those contortions. I would love if i could just do half hour though, then i could do it before going to work.

thanks

my story is simple; i love yoga and have practiced for 7 years. i found i prefer to practice in the quiet of my own home. Yoga Today's classes are vital to my practice. i appreciate that the classes vary in style, theme and content; they're creative, challenging and calming.

i feel grateful to have found Yoga Today's site; without it, i'd likely be using the same dvd's over and again.

Yoga Today makes practice available to me anytime, day or night, which is also a great perk!

thank you for providing an excellent service. i recommend the site often.

I started doing yoga about 10 years ago. I worked at an elementary school in Virginia and our school psychologist also happened to be a yoga instructor. She offered to start a yoga class for us after school. I loved and was hooked.

I moved back to Canada and carried on at various studios and at home. I was recently married and moved to the United Kingdom. I have been to a few classes at the local gym and it has seriously lacked the vibe I have experienced before. I read about this site in a magazine recently and am so impressed by it. Not only can I participate in a great class I can choose when I want to!

Thanks for offering this to world.

I am so glad I found this web site. It has opened up my ways of experiencing yoga. I look forward to checking into the yoga today to find a new love for yoga. I find this yoga practice very uplifting and creative. It's a way to connect on the mat at home in my spare time.

Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful web site. It helps me make it though stressful times, again thank you and namaste

HIII EVERYONE AT YOGA TODAY!!!!

This is a little note from two 20-somethin-year-old roommates, Amber and Sarah, to let you know that: WE LOVE YOU!!!

Thankyou so much for teaching us Yoga! We're very grateful!! It's hard to find a yoga class worth paying for around here, especially when you're a broke student!

A special shout out to Neesha, you're amazing!! We feel a strong connection to you and your vibrant energy!! You're passion shines through the computer, all the way over here in CANADA!!! hahaha

If for some reason you ever make a trip out to Ontario, Canada, to do some yoga, let us know!! We'll be there!!

Thanks again!!!

All our love

Amber & Sarah

P.s. As you can see from our attached photo, we are not as lucky as you to be able to practice yoga outside..considering we have appx 20 ft. of snow!!! But our living room works just fine!! hahaha

As a yoga teacher I find it very difficult to find time to "take" a class instead of "teaching" one. YogaToday offers me the opportunity of actually enjoying a class that I get to take in the privacy of my own home.

Thank you, thank you for this blessing!

I moved to NY from OR, and I very quickly understood what people say about NY being a difficult place to live. In one year I lost two jobs, I had never even been reprimanded before let alone fired from a job. My relationship of eight years broke up, and I did not really know anyone in NY.

I was, to say the very least, depressed and could not find a job for a long time. I looked around and yoga classes in NYC are so expensive and think so much of themselves. but then I found ya'll. I keep a steady practice and no, my life has not found it's center, but I am much more optimistic and feel good about myself. I am calm and collected in my not-so-centered life.

So really I just wanted to say thank you. you are doing such a kindness for so many people.

Thanks!

Thank you so much! I had taken a lot of yoga over the years but hadn't been consistent mostly due to lack of time. I found your classes online this fall and have learned so much and have been able to practice so much more.

Just when I feel like falling into bed after a long day (I'm a new mom), I do one of your classes and feel a thousand times better. Just finished a fantastic class with Sarah and it was amazing! Thanks for your generosity and really fine teaching.

Yoga Today is such a gift! Thank you for making these classes available online.

The joy and peace I feel when starting a new Yoga Today class is immeasurable. I was a runner for many years and knew physically that I would have to slow it down. Yoga gives me just as much of a "runner

For a year I have been doing nearly daily yoga with you! I feel like I know Adi, Sarah and Neesha and I look forward with pleasure to seeing one of them for an hour a day. I feel so great and I have set up a yoga room in my home. I tell yogi friends about yogatoday and they too all love it.

We recently went to Cuba for a week and I did daily yoga there too...sadly, sans your help. I had to draw on my memories. It worked well!

Thank you again!

Martha in Wolfville

I absolutely love Yoga Today.

As a busy physician and mother of 2 young boys, I have little time to go to a studio. And I was picky about my yoga as well. I had learned from a very good teacher in India, and no one seemed to be living up to his example. So when a friend recommended Yoga Today a few months ago, I was skeptical. How could a website (or video) truly portray and teach the intricate art of yoga?

But I checked it out anyway, and boy am I glad I did! You three are so different in your approach to yoga, yet you create a perfect blend. I find that I need each one of you at different times.

Neesha, you reconnect me to the anusara method of Yoga that I first learned 15 years ago in India. You remind me to sparkle. Thank you.

Adi, you ground me and bring me to a place of solid quiet. Thank you.

Sarah, you remind me to breathe and to bring my breath into my every day. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this service you bring to the world.

Happy New Year and thank you again Neesha, Sarah and Adi for your classes!

Although I've moved from Jackson and Neesha's wonderful studio I am still able to practice and learn from all of you. Thanks so much for providing this. Talk about shining stars helping the world twinkle.

Also, reading something like what Alfredo, the high school student in Avon, Colorado wrote just makes you really happy that you ladies are providing this for everyone.

Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful tool. I love that I can view different parts of the classes at various times!

Hi,

I'm a law student, and can never find time to practice yoga at local studios...the class times always seem to conflict with my academic commitments. YogaToday lets me refocus on my body when I'm too caught up in my own head (i.e. life as a student). I especially love the shorter mini-classes on the blog that get right to the point. But I love both formats, and your locations are obviously gorgeous.

Thank you!!! You've let me put yoga practice back into my busy life.

Hi

I am one of those people that get bored easily, but how can i get bored with your classes? Each one is so different and unique,

thanks for keeping yoga interesting

I recently began my practice at a small studio in the city. Enthralled with yoga's possibilities, I jumped in full force and within a month I was practicing every day. Almost every one of these days was spent at the studio because I so greatly appreciated the voice of my teachers as I worked my hardests reminding me where my gaze should be, where my shoulders should direct, and when to relax parts of my body that are not involved in a pose.

Your online classes have allowed me to continue such a practice without the full financial burden of an unlimited membership at my studio (which I can no longer afford). All teachers say everything that needs to be said in just the right time, more often then not I feel as if they could be right behind me. Also, it has been highly supplemental to my regular practice in that I've learned new styles and poses my teachers don't teach (such as Kundalini, 5 Tibetan Rites, some backbends)

Thank you!!!

thank you for the technique of using the hands and feet in poses. I was trying to do downward dog without using my full hand and the wrong technique. I am a newbee, but this was a big help when I did Sun Salutations today.

I have been participating with yoga today off & on for 2 years. I have always enjoyed the class. They are just my speed. I see increased flexibility, muscle tone as well as calmness.

I have recently made a huge move to Canada from Seattle. I have found many benefits from yogatoday during this stressful time. I practice every day with you classes.

thanks

I first found out about yogatoday.com through my roommate while I was volunteering in Israel for a few months. I know that you often hear that yoga changes people's lives, but its really true.

I have found myself more at peace, not only with myself, but with others and the world around me. My yoga practice has benefitted my health, as I found myself losing the weight I had never been able to shed before. My mind was opened up and I was able to meditate on my future.

I have decided to continue my studies in the field of Transpersonal psychology, in which yoga will play a significant role. It has certainly become an important part of my life.

Thank you!

I don't know what I would do without Yoga Today.

I always preferred to attend a yoga class over watching a yoga video, but then I discovered yogatoday.com. I recommend it to everyone I know that is interested in yoga.

Your instructors are so clear and thorough. I find myself correcting my alignment as they prompt me. No other video I have ever watched has such attention to details like alignment and micromovements.

I am so grateful for Yoga Today!

My passion for yoga began when I was going through a rough patch in my life. I was anxious, stressed, and a constant worrier. A friend suggested yoga as a way to balance myself, and I've been hooked ever since!

The only problem is that I'm seventeen with a part time job and full time schooling, and the cost of regularly attending a studio is a huge chunk out of my paycheck, that i really need to save for college or gas. Yoga Today is the perfect solution for me!

Now I can practice every day in the comfort of my own home and save money.

Thank you so much for the help you've given me, I've never felt better!

Thank you for giving me a daily hour of bliss! I'm a beginner and your classes are perfect, the teachers are amazing and they help greatly with alignment, even though they are not here with me. It's like having a studio in my own home.

Thank you for making yoga the moment I look forward to the most in my day!

After attending classes for many years, I have been using Yoga Today for just over a year. I love being able to practice on my own schedule.

The instructors are amazing and the views in Jackson are breathtaking. Thank you SO much for being there for me on a daily basis and creating balance my life.

Namaste

hey adi, sarah, neesha,

i have enjoyed your classes during the whole year. thank you so much!

i am doing a teacher training at spirit yoga, berlin, and i must say i got a lot of inspirtion from your classes.

i am also a singer songwriter and i took you on tour with my computer. i remember many great classes with you in hotel rooms all over germany. :-)

i wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year.

namaste

I discovered Yoga Today through another online community, and it is fantastic. The simplicity of being able to get out of bed and get straight to the mat is wonderful, and the classes are always interesting and fresh.

Through Yoga Today, I've been able to commit to a daily practice, which makes me feel wonderful, on both a physical and mental level. I'm very, very grateful to have a tool like this to guide me every day.

Thanks for enabling me to practice in my own home. As a physician I care for many patients who would benefit from a yoga practice, but who are reluctant to join a studio. I encourage them to visit your web site and enjoy the support and convenience of the yoga today community.

I am 17, and I am on my last year of High School. I really try to do a class everyday, although I skip days sometimes. This is the best Yoga classes I have ever been in.

I have been in a local place that offers them, but they are not as good as this ones. I really appreciate the fact that you offer so much quality in your practice for free, its really amazing. I also noticed your new look, it looks really good.

Your classes help me a lot with my snowboarding and my skateboarding, but they help me the most with centering my mind, and learning more about myself and how the world works. Yoga Today makes a huge impact on me everyday, one class at a time.

Thank you.

Alfredo

The session with Neesha on releasing stress is absolutely fabulous!!! Thank you Neesha for preparing such a mindful and compassionate session for us. I think I am going to repeat it tomorrow.

All the best to you and Yoga Today.

Sylwia

1 year ago January I couldn't walk a block without severe back pain. I started doing yoga with Yoga Today everyday.

Now almost 1 year later, not only can I walk with no problems, but I can jog again!!! I come to your site everyday and practice and at 40lbs lighter and a new lease on life, I just want to thank you!

You have changed not just my life but my families as well. They got their mom back.

Thank you so much yogatoday!

I have been following your site for over a year now, and it has helped me so much, in mind and body! I have MS and my muscles really benefit from stretching and strengthening...

My school has some good yoga classes at our fitness center, but they are not very frequent. It is very difficult to pay for membership or classes at a yoga studio as a college student.

I have been using Yoga Today for a couple years now and it is a true blessing. It keeps me mentally and physically balanced without depleting my bank account!

Thank you!

I am on a 6 months trip now together with my yogamath and this website helps me a lot to actually
KEEP DOING it!

Thanks

Thank you SOOOO much for your yoga practice -- being able to join a yoga class wherever in the day I can makes me so thankful!

What a wonderful service you provide for everyone out there!

I just enjoyed my first yoga experience. My neighbor has practiced yoga for three years now and is always telling me how much she enjoys the experience. I just finished a beginners class with Sarah and found a new type of enjoyment in yoga. Hopefully it is as enjoyable tomorrow.

Last year I completed the 200 hour teacher training course from Asheville Yoga Center to deepen my own practice... then I found Yoga Today... your teachers are incredible...

Anusara is my favorite heart centered yoga... and what a gift to have access here everyday on the top of this mountain... I can fix my gaze on a distant tree... and go to my edge with their guidance... I have told hundreds... no joke... about your website!

Namaste

I have become addicted to Yoga Today, and everyday you help me to stay fit, balanced and relaxed.

I was not really a fan of doing exercise by attending a classes on gyms or exercise centers; I like more outdoor sports like biking or hiking but I don't have time to practice everyday. But with Yoga Today I exercise everyday at home and its fun and good for my body and spirit, it makes me feel great!

Neesha, Sarah and Adi, thank you very much everything!

I have just completed today's workout and felt invigorated and energized. Thank you again for such a great website!

I have also introduced YogaToday to my son's Music Teacher. She seems to feel tired and drained all the time and I was wondering if there are any Yoga poses or specific workouts that would help her.

Once again, thanks for everything and Namaste.

My husband and I just recently moved to Mammoth Lakes for the season and I have been missing my yoga studio back home. Yoga Today has been a saving grace! We came home from skiing yesterday and did one of Sarah's classes.

Thank you again and again for bringing yoga to us up in the mountains!

thank you for replaying "using core strength for backbends"

-backbends are always hardest for me. I appreciate Neesha's attention to details.

I feel great! Keep replaying.

I am grateful for the time that we spend together everyday.

Thank you for the wonderful classes and inspiring instructors.

I'm very thankful for this yoga practice.

I've been a dancer, mover and bodyworker all my life but for the first time I have a daily practice in the comfort of my own home.

Namaste

I was a dancer growing up, after which, I became a hard core gym goer to keep my body firm and flexible. After 12 solid years of working out at the gym, I grew tired of the routine. I then discovered yoga at a small, quaint studio down the street from my home and fell in love.

Unfortunately, it was too expensive for my budget, but then a friend told me about yogatoday.com. My gym membership has since expired and I'm LOVING doing yoga at home using your site. Not only am I loving practicing yoga regularly, but I'm loving the results, both to my body and my spirit.

As a manager, I've always short of time.

But with yoga today, i take my laptop and i'll do it for one hour.

thanx

I love the convenience of practicing at home right before I go to bed. My sleep is more peaceful and restful.

I tell everyone how wonderful your classes are, Sarah Kline is my favorite! I would not be able to practice as often as I do if I had to pay to join a yoga studio.

Thank you for the time and effort devoted to the yogatoday.com website.

Joleen

I started Yoga as the result of a soccer injury. Instead of simply doing my stretching exercises i opted for some strength building activity.

I have to say that i was very skeptical at first, but now thanks to your classes i have completely changed my mind. Since practicing, i have avoided new injuries thanks to the flexibility i gained in class...

Keep on going!

YogaToday was an excellent discovery - and now provides an enjoyable and much appreciated means of working out from the convenience of my girlfriend's apartment in Romania.

The variety of classes has helped maintained my interest week after week.

Thank you for this excellent resource.

Thank you so much Yoga Today. Your effort is truly a blessing in my life today.

Please don't give it up, and neither will I.

Namaste

i just wanted to thank you for all of the time, effort and energy that you share with everyone. the classes that you share with us change lives.

i found yoga after a few massive and unpleasant changes in my life. these classes have helped me to realize the power of my mind, heart and body again. i am happier healthier and more centered when i keep yoga as a part of my routine.

i have shared your classes with everyone i know. and i wanted to say thank you for all that you give selflessly.

I am so glad I was introduced to Yoga Today! It has become a part of my daily routine and something that I can not live without.

I have more energy, better emotions and more strength; all from participating regularly in the quality sessions presented on Yoga Today.

I thank you!

2 years ago I found out that I had polycystic ovarian syndrome which was why I found it hard to keep in shape and so went to the gym as often as I could. This year I went to the Netherlands and couldn't go to the gym due to the cost and so I use this website to stay fit and healthy.

To Everyone at YogaToday,

I just wanted to send you a quick note to tell you all how much I love your classes. The accessibility is just amazing. Although I also attend class at a studio on a regular basis, there is no way that I would be able to have a daily practice without yogatoday.com.

Everyday I am inspired by Neesha, Sarah & Adi. Also, in the 1 1/2 years that I've been taking your classes, I have never hurt myself; something that I was a little worried about when I first started. My only request? Classes 1 1/2-2 hours in length.

Again, keep up the amazing work. YogaToday rocks my day!

My yoga teacher has decided to take a winter break from teaching so it is Yoga Today that I am depending upon now.

I love all three instructors and the variety of routines offered. I have been with you since the beginning and have learned more than I thought possible.

In addition, I broke C6 vertebrae one year ago and recuperated with your help!!! I was just discharged by my spine specialist who has been greatly impressed with my progress in terms of healing a very serious injury.

Thanks again,

Anne

I am forever grateful to find more time to practice yoga!

I bow to the world-class instructors and everyone else involved at Yoga Today for making this world a better place.

Thank you!

I am a recent college graduate who as always been active in various sports, jogging, or lifting weights, but after graduation I took an internship for three months in China, working for LG. I live in a hotel that has a VERY small gym, but I was not satisfied with the arrangement.

I told my friend in the States about my situation and she recommended your site. I LOVE IT! Not only am I feeling more fit, but I am better able to cope with homesickness and the cultural stresses I am encountering.

Thank you for providing such a great service. I am more content and centered than I have been in a long time and have recommended your site to other family and friends!

Elena

I took pre-natal yoga classes while pregnant and hoped to continue my yoga practice after having my baby. My daughter and I used to attend a mother and baby yoga class, but now that she's crawling, I find it's impossible to try to do yoga and chase after her during a 90-minute class. The classes were also expensive, which is a concern now that we're living on one income while I stay at home.

Thanks to Yoga Today, I can enjoy yoga classes for free while my husband watches my daughter before he leaves for work in the morning. Usually, I'm able to do a whole class uninterrupted, but I like being able to hit the pause button if she needs to nurse. The yoga classes are wonderful, and the instructors are calming and encouraging.

I think doing yoga helps me to be a better mom. I'm so glad that I've found a way to fit it into my life again.

Thank you for bringing yoga to our homes for free! I can't afford yoga classes in Brussels but I also can't afford not giving it to my body and soul. You make a huge difference and I hope that you'll continue to provide these free classes for a long time.

In addition, I feel that yoga has made a difference for me as a singer/songwriter - feeling more inner peace and balance helps me become a better artist, too!

Again, thanks a million!

I am so grateful for this amazing resource! I have been practicing yoga for 6 years now, and for the first time, thanks to your site, I truly feel I have a disciplined practice.

I never seemed to attend more than 1 or 2 classes a week, and my home practice was never as strong and therapeutic as a full guided session.

By the time I factored in driving, taking a 1.5 hr class, refreshing myself afterward... it was a 2-3 hr ordeal, not to mention the constantly rising costs of the class. So I really wasn't practicing as much as my body wanted me to. Thanks to yoga today there are no more excuses now for why I can't practice enough ;)

It is such a blessing to be able to practice from my room, with gentle guidance, and get everything that I want out of a practice.

Thank you!

-Namaste-

Awesome site, i recommend it to anyone who even mentions the word Yoga. One thing i notice is that no matter how still my corpse pose is at the end of the session i cannot help the tendency to dance when the beat of the closing music kicks in, very catchy.

I lived in Jackson and studied yoga regularly with Neesha. How thrilled I am to discover this amazing site. I can practice any time now AND I feel like I'm back home! Thank you for offering this amazing gift to us!

Namaste

I discovered your site two years' ago and it has been a mainstay in my life ever since.

I run a busy business in culinary tourism in Provence, and I have two children in school, with after-school activities, etc., I adore being able to do your classes whenever I've a free hour. The variety, the multiple levels, the encouraging teachers with just the words that work, teach, inspire. Thank you tremendously.

With your classes, I'm able to do yoga wherever I bring my computer. I've told oodles of people about your site -- here and back in the US.

Thank you so much for these free classes everyday, I'm a student and without being able to practice yoga around my schedule I would be so frazzled and stressed out.

Thank you again :)

I started yoga in High School (here in Hong Kong) and loved it so much I tried to keep it up throughout College. Since then it has been so hard to find a decent class that is at the right level, and that doesn't cost a ton.

After 6 months of working 14 hour days, my back started having major issues. I went to physio weekly, and didn't have time to go to the gym (it was either gym or dinner/sleep) and my health went down significantly. Then I became pregnant and the back issues only got worse.

After the baby my back problems continued for months (still doing physio) until I found YogaToday. Since I have been able to do routines whenever and for however long I am able (before the baby wakes, for example), I haven't had to go back to physio since!! And even though my kid only gets heavier each month, my back is stronger than ever. Not only this, but I love how I am more toned now than when I was lifting weights and going to the gym regularly!

I LOVE YogaToday and always recommend it to my friends. It's a great gift to have such wonderful classes so accessible.

Thank you for your efforts and inspiration!

Hi my dear teachers,

I would like to tingle little bit Yours beautiful hearts with my small video. I had recorded couple years back, when I have stuck at home with small kids, while my lovely wise wife earned a fortune in her job. Some time I was not able to interrupted exercising of yoga even my kid was in risky situation. Now I know, it was stupid...

Sincerely,

Stano

I am training for my first marathon event and yogatoday is helping me stay stretched and focused. Even when I don't think I have an hour to give towards this practice I'm always glad I found the time.

I discovered Yoga Today two years ago when I first moved to Crete.

I was so excited that I could watch classes online from the other side of the world. Since then I have been keeping up with classes 3 times a week and now Yoga has become just as important to my well-being as good food and fresh air.

Thanks to all of the talented instructors and everyone who makes this possible!

I recently had a baby, whom I love dearly. Yet, I don't always have the time to attend a yoga class, even though I work at a yoga studio. I also recently have started to deepen my practice by taking the 6month intensive yoga teacher training at the studio I work at.

Yoga TODAY has given me the strength to embark on a home practice, while also deepening my practice. I find that I feel energized and in bliss after a yoga TODAY class.

Thank you for the inspiration, guidance, and love.

WOW! I can not tell you how wonderful this practice has been for me.

Everyday I look froward to taking this time to be good to my mind and body.

Thankyou for this gift.

Bringing awareness to my breath has had an impressive impact on nearly all aspects of my life.

Coming from a dance background, I thought I had my body figured out. Yet after breaking my hip/femur from a wakeboarding accident, and going through months of frustrating rehab... I had lost touch of the mind/body connection. It wasn't until yogatoday.com entered my life that I realized what I was missing!

All this time being uncomfortably unbalanced, I was unaware that i picked up a habit of holding my breath when my hip/back gave me grief in mid-pose/stretch/workout.

Yogatoday has been absolutely nothing short of a godsend! Thank you for returning my quality of life back to it's potential!

Keep up the blessing!

I studied Yoga in Charlotte, NC in my most favorite yoga studio where the Yoga instructor touched my soul so deeply that it healed me physically and mentally. The Yoga instructor and I became friends as she learned I was moving back home to Pittsburgh. My husband and I sold a house, bought a house, started new jobs and found out we were pregnant (all with in 1 year), after thinking we could never have babies.

Now we are home with our 3 month old, close to family. I miss my Yoga family in Charlotte, NC and have not had time to find a new Yoga family here in Pittsburgh, however my Yoga Today has always been with me.

I did Prenatal Yoga throughout my pregnancy and started doing my Yoga Today again. Thank you for keeping Yoga Today going, I practice yoga most everyday and Yoga Today has always been a part of my Yoga Family.

What a wonderful website!

I just started getting back into yoga now that it's getting too cold to exercise outside and it feels great. With my college student budget, I definitely can't afford classes at a studio, but with your challenging, high quality classes, I don't need to.

Thanks, yoga today.

Yogatoday is already part of my everyday routine. A good way to de-stress after a long 12 hour shift in the hospital. I have recommended the website to my co-nurses. Saved my back from all the lifting and pulling of patients and it has transformed my response to stress of everyday life.

I'd been having back problems for a bit and just needed a good stretch. So I Googled yoga, saw your site and followed one episode.

Been practicing 25 - 30 minutes 3 or 4 times a week for a month and I hooked. My back and every other part of my body has never felt better. As an avid weight lifter and cyclist i'm lifting more than ever and riding with more stamina.

I should have started years ago.

THANK-YOU!!!!!

I love yoga today. I have practiced at home for years because I live at least 30 minutes from any studio. Yoga today has given me the "personal" instruction I miss from a classroom environment.

The ques fit perfectly and sometimes I feel as if you can see me "tense my shoulders" or "crease my forehead". I know it is because you are all such seasoned instructors. I frequent yoga retreats and yoga today is all I need to get ready for ANY retreat.

Keep up the great classes!!!!

Thank you so much for this website, it is changing the way I think about fitness.

I am a paddler and snowboarder and am always in pain from muscle strain and soft tissue injuries. Yoga has made much of my normal aches and pains go away.

I prefer to workout at home and I look forward to a new session everyday and improving my strength, flexibility and calming.

Yoga Today has inspired me so much. Although today is only day two of my participation, I feel that it is something I can not live without. I will be telling all of my friends!

Thank you for the peace & balance!

I am so grateful that we have YogaToday!

At our workplace, we had company sponsored/subsidized yoga classes with a local instructor/studio. We loved them. Early this year, that ended. Several of us were missing our yoga over the lunch hour, so we turned to Yoga Today. Now, twice a week a group of us bring a laptop and a projector to the exercise space, roll out our mats and join you in Jackson.

The classes are diverse and as challenging as we'd like. Quite often afterward, we discuss how much we liked that day's practice.

Now I'm writing a novel - and I could write more, still! - but I wanted to let you know that there is a group here that appreciates what you do.

Keep it up!

Still loving Yoga Today ... you put my comment up a while back. Thanks! still cant quite believe I do Yoga regularly now. I used to be a meat eating too much beer swilling non-exercise person. Definitely gives me focus while all the craziness of the club scene revolves dizzily around me... any chance of a yoga for cyclists someday soon??

It's 0300 at the hospital and I am tired. I decided to log onto yoga today and check it out. Now 0400 and I am more awake and energized than ever.... This is the time I usually crash and count the hours to the end of my shift.

Thanks, Yoga Today!

Linda RN

Yoga Today has brought me back to my mat and back to myself.

A few years ago I was practicing ashtanga yoga everyday, and I was feeling the best I had ever felt. School and life got stressful though, and although I preached yoga for de-stress and mindfulness, I did not follow my own instructions.

I prefer to practice alone at home, but I was getting bored with my handful of never changing dvd's, that is, until I found yoga today. Now I wake up an hour before I have to get ready for work just to come downstairs and get connected to my body. I feel great and am so happy I found this website.

I was also getting really blocked when trying to paint, but after an invigorating yoga session a few nights ago, I went straight to my easel with more focus and determination than I've had in years.

A huge thanks to YT and to Adi in particular for her class on reducing stress through Yoga, so calming, inspiring and clear. Being a non-native English speaker, I could easily follow Adi's precise and timely instructions even without watching the poses in the video.

I particularly enjoyed the final short guided relaxation, which is sometimes missing in other classes and which is an essential part of class.

Silvia

Thank you so much for this amazing website.

As a big mountain skier, Yoga for mountaineers has been my favorite class so far. It is very inspiring to see a great athlete like Kit DesLauriers as a part of Yoga today.

You make my day, every day. You guys rock!

I am under a lot of stress for a couple of months now and I will be soon starting a new job, with lots of responsibilities and very difficult tasks. I am tense, I need to relax and focus on my inner world. Your lessons are really helpful.

Thank you very much!

Wow, I can't believe I only just now found your site.

I feel very fortunate and thank you for providing such wonderful classes. With a busy life I am still able to work on my practice each day at home.

Thank you so much.

After years of not practicing, Yoga Today has given me the motivation to get back on track.

I've always found it difficult to practice outside of a class, but due to my low income level, I have trouble affording classes. Your videos have given me the opportunity to participate in a class without the expense.

The videos are wonderful - so well made and with perfect guidance through all the poses. I also enjoy the archive from the past several days to offer choices for my practice that day.

Thank you for the inspiration.

Yoga Today is increasing my inner peace, health and compassion for others.

When I practice regularly with the three outstanding teachers I have more patience and good will for my husband, my two year old and my co-workers. I also find that I get sick less often than my co-workers and family.

I used to be skeptical that yoga could improve your immune system... but now I am a believer. Lastly, I just enjoy the classes and the teachers so much.

Thank you for such a wonderful gift!

thank you Adi for your class for mountaineers it was wonderful.

my son who is 14 is now converted and as he is a race skier for GB he has lots of trouble in the knees and lower back, after years of telling him how wonderful yoga is, I have showed him your site, he watches your classes from his computer in his bedroom and joins in this is helping tremendously with core strength and flexibility.

Thank you.

I really enjoy doing the Yoga Today classes - I feel a lot more flexible since I started 2 months ago. The beautiful - often spectacular - locations are an inspiration & the teachers are patient, strong & capable. I would ask one thing - could you please incorporate a bit more variation in the first 20 mins of the class? It is too similar each time I feel.

Thank you for sharing these classes with everyone.

Kalyi

Thank you so much for making the Yoga Today classes available over the Internet. I have been following them in the morning before I go to work. It is worth getting up extra early to join you all in Jackson!

Thank you to all of you there for making this beautiful resource available to us.

I'll never be able to express my deepest gratefulness. You are my best teachers and especially Sarah Kline.

If there is a chance to buy some yoga lectures on DVD, I would love to.

Thank You very much.

Thanks for this great site!

I had a baby 13 months ago and before I had her I had a very regular practice. The last year has been a magical journey, but I haven't always found time to keep up my practice or just take proper care of myself with regard to exercise. Yoga Today has made it easy for me to reconnect with my practice with these excellent practices right at home.

Thanks!

yoga today has helped me get back on track doing yoga every morning in my living room and at the same time also being with you in the rocky mountains. this is an excellent thing you are doing to promote world peace by bringing everyone together from all corners of the world doing something useful which brings health and peace.

thank you and bless you all at yoga today.

i am loving your classes.

i have had an at home practice for over two years. my son was the last to go to college after 5 children and i brought my practice home because going to classes was taking too much of my time in the evening. my home practice took me on a different journey with yoga after 15 years of classes. i found your site and now i do my classes with all of you. i am holding my poses much longer and doing poses i have not done in quite a while.

thank you for your classes. when i practice with all of you i feel that i am in a class. i am grateful.

namaste

I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful classes you offer us everyday. I am unable to afford yoga classes, and the impeccable details and timing the Yoga Today instructors provide are invaluable to those who do not have access to a live teacher to help us with our poses, breathing, focus, and encouragement.

Before Yoga Today, I was unaware of the different kinds of yoga. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to pick and choose from these high quality classes that expose us to a variety of styles and practices of yoga.

It is touching and amazing how the Yoga Today instructors are able to convey/transmit such compassion and positivity over these practices. Their genuine efforts are felt and appreciated everyday.

Thank you so much.

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the gift you give by allowing free access to wonderful instructors who bring so much variety to my practice.

I can't wait to see some of the archives.

I view all three teachers and the staff who bring "YOGA TODAY" to fruition as ANGELS who have truly blessed my own and I am sure others lives. I've been practicing YOGA "on and off" for 6 years--but now thanks to this site my practice has definitely hit the "on" mode in full force.

I have always been an athletic person--high school sports, running, golf, tennis...etc. but in a Yoga class I am the most humbled. It's sooo great to do something that is truly 'noncompetitive!'

I am not the most flexible person in the hips so YOGA was one of the first things I've ever done physically that I didn't learn and master quickly!(i.e. my forehead will never touch the floor!) In fact every time I do Yoga I just have a different experience...but at the end of the practice my perspective is broadened and my feelings towards the world and other people are more connected. Yoga is my religion!

Thank you all for you commitment in sharing this gift with the world... I always send you all blessings and will be forever grateful!

Yoga Today is get away from it all. I sometimes have stress in the relationship at work according to the nature of my job as an interpreter; go-between, people to people etc. I can always come back to myself quietly during Yoga Today lesson at home. It clears my mind in the end. So refreshing!

Also I used to walk and pedal every day and I loved it. Now I have to drive or cling to my computer for long hours in a day when I am not interpreting. I enjoy a good stretch by yoga and feel like I am getting my strength back.

It's so relaxing & inspiring.

Arigato gozaimasu (Thank you) for a wonderful lesson!

I am coming out of a stressful period of my life in which I didn't make time for my yoga practice. Now that I am enjoying a bit more free time, I am re-embracing the benefits of yoga.

Thank you for making yoga widely available!

Yoga Today has truly been a blessing for me. It has allowed me to practice in the comfort of my home and to modify poses to suite me. I decided to do yoga since traditional exercise methods did not give me the full body work out I desired. However, I know once I do a yoga class my entire body is actively involved at all times.

Good news is I finally lost some of the weight I wanted to and I feel more toned and lean. Additionally, I have greater breath control and stability in my movements.

I love love Yoga Today!!!!! Keep up the good work.

Namaste

I've just finished Neesha's hip opening class and I felt inspired to write and thank you all.

I first came to yoga around 8 years ago but my practice never really took off as I have a history of drug and and alcohol abuse. Earlier this year I went into a rehab programme and although I cleaned up, I came out the other side depressed, spiritually weak and frightened to go outside.

Over the last 7 months I've practiced meditation daily, changed my diet and used yoga today to practice yoga daily and my life has turned around beyond belief.

I still practice yoga daily but I get out to classes now too and feel fantastic most of the time! Yoga today was there for me when I literally had nothing else and I feel you guys have played a big part in my recovery. I've been so inspired that I'm hoping to one day teach yoga myself.

I cant thank you enough for making yoga so freely available. Big heartfelt thanks to all involved, especially Neesha, Adi and Sarah.

Love and Light

Yoga Today helps me keep my back from hurting.

When I practice with Yoga Today my back doesn't hurt. When I don't, it does; it's that simple.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I travel all the time for work, and the continuity I get from Yogatoday has helped me open on all levels. The instructors are top notch! They are amazing in their rich detail, reminders along the way, and encouragement. I tend to practice mostly with Adi's classes as Ashtanga is my preference, but I enjoy all of the styles.

I can't count how many of my friends, family, and clients I have raved about your wonderful gift! And by the way, the backdrop of Grand Teton certainly doesn't hurt either, it's breathtaking.

Thanks again to the instructors and all the folks who started this wonderful gift and keep it going!!

I have been looking for a yoga class to join, as I have not attended any in about 5 years and upon searching the internet, found yoga today. I am so excited about it, I immediately clicked play to begin my first session and cannot wait to do this on a daily basis.

Thanks for your website and for bringing yoga back into my life!

Thanks so much for providing this.

I have been under extreme stress the past several months and your yoga classes literally have been one of the things that has helped me to be able to cope with it. I especially enjoy Adi's classes. They are wonderful!!!

Thanks so much!!! This has been a lifesaver for me.

Hi, my name is Danielle and I am 18 years old currently a freshman going to art school in Boston Mass.

I came from the country to the city and I am still trying to grasp the ground while being swept up in the rhythm and elevated speed, the loud noises and different people. It is very hard to stay grounded I found and I walk around thousands of people who don't even acknowledge each other. Now don't get me wrong I am very much enjoying the new culture, but I found my self more then ever having to take a moment to ground myself and become present... and its very hard to do that here.

When I found Yoga today, it was through iTunes looking through podcasts. I subscribed to Yoga today, and fallowed the link to the website and was overjoyed with the videos that are posted. It is inspiring, and almost relieving to me to have here right in my dorm.

Even though I'm only a freshman here at my collage, I hope to make an impact and create a free fun yoga class for young collage kids like me. I still have yet to instruct yoga, but thanks to Yoga today I hope.. I will begin to spread the word and educate my upcoming generation.

oh and if yoga today ever stops by Boston, let me know.

I'm becoming a different person. I've started to pray more, think more, and love more. I've quit smoking and am trying to make a big change in my life.

I'm a larger person, and even though my college has a state of the art facility - I've always had a fear of the gym/weight room. I found the Yoga today website and just got done with my first session. I LOVE IT!

I can't wait to go to bed, wake up tomorrow morning, and do another session! I can't wait to share this with my friends!

I have had chronic lower back problems for over 12 years. Recently I often wake up in the morning with excruciating nerve pains running down on one side of my leg and could not move about easily without pain, but thanks to Yoga Today, I could still do yoga right in my bedroom.

I had to modify some of the poses, but with continued Yoga practices, I can usually get myself back to a pain-free state and lead a normal life for the rest of the day.

Thank you for creating Yoga Today, and thank you for making it available to us for free. Your recent healthy back and healthy spine episodes with Adi and with Neesha have been especially helpful for me.

Thanks a million and I still can not thank you enough.

I have been practicing yoga for around 3 years, but thanks to this class have gotten past my beginner's plateau! I learn so much each class and have gotten a lot more serious about my practice because of all of you!

Thank you for inspiring me to make yoga a part of my every day life.

I have watched yoga today grow and I think you all are doing a wonderful job bringing yoga into the lives of yogi's at every level everywhere. Coincidentally, Ericka, I saw your post, and I had to respond because I live in Lithonia, GA too!

I am a certified yoga teacher, and Yoga has gotten me though a lot - especially my first pregnancy! During menstruation, seated forward bends like pigeon or janu sirsansana, standing poses like the warrior poses, and simple back bends like camel or fish should make you feel great.

I hope others respond to you and if not, call a local studio and an experienced teacher can give more advice. I hope to meet you one day.

Namaste.

Even in Germany me and my friends love yogatoday!

Your great idea has been roaming the globe! Thank you for you brilliant lessons every day! My body feels more relaxed and stronger than before! Keep it up!

Love,

Jen

I just started a training to become a yoga teacher and Yoga Today really helps me on the side to practice on my own and to strengthen what I'm learning.

Yoga Today is such a great website with quality teachers!

Just love it. Thanks!

your classes are a refuge from all the clutter that rattles around in my head all day. from the asanas to the surroundings - its all good.

Hi, my name is Carmen, I am a musician from Leipzig, Germany.

I am practicing yoga since 15 years but your classes are the best I have ever had. I can feel my body get more powerful and flexible from day to day.

Thank you so much,

Carmen

After I discovered YogaToday I decided to share this blessing with my friends. On Tuesdays (my day off) we meet at my living room and hook the computer to our big flat screen TV, move the furniture, set our sticky mats and enjoy and full hour of yoga today.

Not only we receive the benefits of Yoga itself, but later on we gather around the kitchen table, some fruits and cereals and laughs and beautiful and supporting conversation.

I thank you girls, also on my friends behalf, for such a wonderful gift!

Namaste

wonderful service...i keep up better with my home practice on the days i don't have class...neesha is terrific...thank you

Since having my first daughter 4 months ago, yoga today has helped me get back into shape, relax, breath, and feel centered. I practice in the morning before she wakes and it's now my addiction! I can't wait to wake up and enjoy the sunrise and practice yoga. These classes are also great because then I don't have to find a babysitter!

Thank you!

Due to really tight finances, I'm unable to take yoga classes locally at the moment. Yoga Today is a lifesaver! I very much appreciate these lessons everyday.

Since having to scale down my lifestyle to fit our budget, I have been feeling quite down. Doing Yoga Today's lessons have given me a renewed perspective and optimism. I feel more grounded after each practice, and it is the little kick in the butt I needed.

Thank you so much for generously making these videos available.

I have been practicing yoga for two years and because of my work schedule I have a hard time getting to local classes. Yoga Today is a part of my daily life. No matter how hectic the day has been, every time I tune in and sit on my mat to begin with a centering the world and all my worries completely melt away.

I am so excited about the new blog!! It's such a great way to see what other practices my favorite teachers apply in their lives!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Thanks for your amazing classes!

I wanted an hour of class in the early AM, and it was difficult to find gyms that offer it. With Yoga Today, I can do a new class each time and don't even have to leave my living room! I especially enjoy the classes focused on particular sports or on general strength and flexibility.

thank you very much YogaToday for giving me the opportunity to practice yoga everyday. I love the classes. They have been very helpful and I feel much better.

I absolutely LOVE Yoga Today! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The doctors say I have uterine fibroids, and my flow is really heavy during menstruation. I'm sidelined from practicing yoga for 2-4 days during, "that time of month". What poses can I do during this time so I can still feel the positive energy yoga brings?

Thanks again!

Ericka

I very recently decided to start up Yoga as a means for recovery and added flexibility for my sports. It's great to finally find a site that doesn't charge me per month to watch the online videos.

yoga today lets me further my practice with out having to worry about any cost. how freeing! and i love the beautiful scenery.

thank you,

sarah

Yoga Today has provided me with a healthy outlet for stress during my last semester of university.

Thank you!

Hi Again,

Today I did your injury yoga class. It was perfect as I just injured the ligaments in my left foot.

So nice to have YOGA TODAY to turn to!

Lynne

My daughter has moved to Australia and has brought Yogatoday.com with her. On a recent visit we went hiking through Kata Tjuka at Ayers Rock and thought it was like Sedona. Someone had balanced rocks and we were inspired to strike our favorite poses. Here is Annie, my daughter, her boyfriend's mother, Jenny, and me in the Northern Territory of Australia.

I have been battling a chronic illness, but am finally getting my body built up enough to start some gentle activities again.

I have always been athletic and active, so it has been hard to stop all activity during my recovery. However, yoga has been a wonderful way for me to begin strengthening my body again. Not only is it helpful for gaining strength, it is relaxing and soothing.

I find I can face complicated situations with a new calm because of the time I spend quietly doing yoga poses and stretches each morning and evening. I have better posture and a different kind of physical strength than I have ever felt before.

Thanks to yogatoday, I am learning new poses and how to progress in my yoga endeavors.

Thank You! Keep up the good work!

A grateful patron,

Sara S.

My name is Christie and I am a wife/ dancer/ choreographer/ photographer with a very busy life and husband. I just moved into my new place here in Santa Clarita, CA. I am married to Ryan Sala of the US Navy two years this October 20th. He is overseas right now working in Japan with his squadron.

While he is there I will be attending school at the California Institute of the Arts to get my Masters in dance choreography/ performance. I've been doing so many things to get myself and my new place prepared for what is to come that I haven't been paying any attention to my body. Which is not good since I'm a dancer/ choreographer. I have also started to feel more sadness since my husband is away. It really is hard being a wife of a military man.

Anyway, I found this website and thought that getting back into yoga would really help me calm everything in my life. As well as energize me to get out more and get my body and all my awareness ready to go back to school.

I have not felt as good about my body in a long time. Yoga Today has helped me in so many ways. I thank you so much for providing this website.

Christie

HI!

Thank you for giving me so many relaxing moments with your yoga classes. I am so happy I found yogatoday! Just been to Nevada, Las Vegas, I now have an impression of the red rocks. But as I am on tour often I wished to have some classes on my I-phone. Is there a chance for a download??

all the best,

Beate

My boyfriend stumbled upon your website a couple of months back. Since then we have been completing classes anywhere from 3-5 times a week. We both love your website. I feel and breathe better every day that I participate in a class. My massage therapist has even commented that my muscles are easier to work on and relax much faster since I started my practice.

Thanks yoga today!

As a college student I find it so hard to find studio class times that don't conflict with my class schedule, but when I practice alone it's very difficult for me to keep an even pace and decide what to do next.

It's such a great idea to offer these classes-- they'll allow me to continue my practice when before I might have simply gone without when studio classes aren't an option.

Thank you so much! I'll be a much calmer and more centered person thanks to your classes!

Dear Yoga Today,

I feel yoga is one of the best ways to start the day.

I'm a Massage Therapy student/retired professional triathlete and learned about your website from a fellow classmate. I really enjoy waking up to a different class each morning and like the fact that the instructors all use anatomical language..I feel like I'm studying while getting a great workout! I tell all of my clients/teachers about it.

It really helped me to reduce the stress of a challenging program and financially being able to maintain a healthy lifestyle while in school!

Keep up the great classes!

Charlene

Thanks to yoga today I've been able to be introduced to yoga... I'm unable to take a class in my area at this point due to money and time. I'm involved in community theater and a director whose input I value told me that I should try yoga to improve my ability for dance etc. I've noticed a lot of improvement in my flexibility, balance, concentration, and endurance since I've started using yoga today. :) Thank you so much for making a valuable resource accessible to everybody!!

I thank you as teachers and all of your staff who make this Website possible. It is a gift of love.

I have always been an athlete. Because of an old motorcycle injury I now have one knee replaced. Because of breast cancer I have had a full mastectomy and reconstruction. And thanks to Yoga Today I can practice every evening in my bedroom. I do take a couple of classes a week at the gym. On those days I have a Yoga bonanza taking those classes and yours. Bliss.

Yoga is my lifeline to physical, spiritual and mental health and I am doing things I never thought I would be able to do again, including headstands.
I say to my colleagues, "if I can do this anyone can."

Namaste

Dear Adi, Sarah, and Neesha,

You have played a major role in transforming my practice from a sporadic one to a daily one. I am so hooked on Yoga Today that I find myself wondering, "What will they be offering this time? I can't wait to tune in!"

I really appreciate the variety of your classes as well as the way each of the you carefully talks the student through every asana. Even though I've been practicing for a few years, I'm still learning new things. Thanks for helping to enrich my life through yoga.

I just wanted to thank you all for the work you put in to share this art with us.

My wife and I were recently laid off due to the economy and have taken this opportunity to make some lifestyle changes. We started strength training at the gym, but I was looking for more meaningful exercise. I found Yoga Today and loved it.

I never thought my wife would get into yoga, but after I had enjoyed just a couple sessions, she tried it and loved it. Now we rarely go strength train, preferring the soothing training we can do in our own home.

Please do not give up this service. We are so appreciative, and would love to know anything we can do to keep you running. I figured at least, I'll start clicking your sponsor ads and I will look forward to more great yoga.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Steve

Yoga Today is such a wonderful site!

Yoga is a very important part of my life, and I want to thank you all for the chance to do super yoga in my own home, whenever I get the chance.

Going to the gym for classes isn't an option for me right now, so I love that I can still have a vigorous, varied session every day.

Thanks a million!

Thank you for helping me in my battle against the eating disorder that I have been struggling with for a number of years.

I have justed started doing this yoga and it is truly a gift, thankyou.

I just want to send out my gratitude for making this available for us. I tried a class at a yoga center while my husband was out of work and became addicted. My workouts are very versatile but, i crave yoga. When he went back to work I was unable to attend classes due to daycare and that's when I tried your site! I have been with you ever since (about 1 1/2yrs)

So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, finesse and wisdom!

I am enjoying practicing with you everyday xxx

As a yoga teacher and a middle school teacher it is easy to get caught up in giving and doing. Yoga Today offers the magical gift that supports my home practice no matter where I am. Whenever I feel tapped and do not have an opportunity to practice in a studio - I know I can count on Yoga Today to offer just what I need.

Thank you to all who provide this gift.

Namaste.

Yoga is literally a life saver for me - I cannot live without it - given the challenges in my life - parents are ill - kids - you names it - life is hard - but this system allows me to stop and get away from it all.

Yogatoday is a wonderful act of kindness. It has been an open window into deepening and expanding mindfulness and joy into my practice.

What has been helpful for me to the ability to rewind and watch the poses before attempting them on my own. This is a stellar concept and I am so grateful to yogatoday.com.

I tell all of the people I love to log on...bless you!

Yoga has become a form of therapy for me.

I lost both of my parents before I turned 21 (I'm 24 now) and I've been dealing with a lot of emotional stress. It was even affecting my relationship. So when a friend of mine introduced me to Yoga I jumped at the opportunity to try it out.

I ended up doing it for a month. I would have continued but unfortunately every yoga studio I've looked into is too expensive. So I got online and bought a Mat and a video. I liked the video, it got me back into the swing of things, but sadly... it became repetitive and boring. Then the same friend told me about your site and I was stoked!

So I just wanted to thank you. I honestly feel yoga shouldn't be as expensive as it is. Everyone should be able to do it, and you guys make it possible with your site.

Thanks for that.

Thank you so much for introducing me to yoga!

The exercises are relaxing and energizing. It's especially nice to be able to relax while at home, and not be constrained by a class schedule. The beautiful mountain backdrop makes me want to move to Wyoming.

I appreciate how you brought yoga and its daily teachings to the masses.

I found your website by chance this spring, and have joined your classes several times a week since then. I am really grateful for the effort you put into this project. It is a very good idea which means a lot for many people.

I live at a small place, far from the next yoga-studio. Without your assistance it would be very difficult to get new impulses in my daily practice. Since I enjoy ashtanga yoga very much, I would like to send special thanks to Adi.

Your lessons mean a lot to me. I hope you'll keep on with the good work for a long time and send you a big hug.

I really tried yoga just because i found yoga today and it was free (i'm not a person that have loads of money to spend).

Let's say the first class fixed some posture problems in a way i had never experienced before. Besides of course all the other positive points.

Thanks to you all.

i am teaching overseas and finding your site not only provides a "class" i can take at home to enhance my home practice - but also gives me a little taste of home as well.

so glad to have found you. using your site has deepened my practice on so many levels - for that i am thankful.

namaste.

I've been afflicted with problems in my joints and carpal tunnel syndrome for a very long time. Since I began watching Yoga Today I have noticed dramatic changes in flexibility, but most of all with my once stiff joints that refused to bend in certain ways.

I no longer have carpal tunnel complications and feel invigorated whereas before I felt sluggish and achy.

Thank you.

One should be so grateful for having your classes available.

Thank you for sharing such powerful messages of humanity with all.

I simply love this website and the variety of yoga practices available.

I was one of the last of my friends to try yoga but I am glad I finally have. Yoga practice is such a positive force and I feel its impact in all areas of my life. Each instructor at yogatoday.com is talented and provides excellent cues and tips for each position.

Thanks so much for providing this.

I would like to thank you so much for the practice on setting intentions. I attended a Spiritual, Mental and Physical Detox workshop with Sean Corn this past weekend. I was so excited to see that my morning workout on Yoga Today was reaffirming and reinforcing much of the material I learned this weekend.

Thanks so much for continuing to enrich my practice.

just discovered your site!!

mahalo for your exquisite work!!

& doing the class at home is great.... my animals join in

I have been a fan of Yoga Today for over a year now and every chance I get, I tell others about your great classes. Recently I've begun training for a half marathon (a year ago I would have said I am not a runner!) and as I've begun to increase my miles, I've noticed significant knee pain.

The past few days I took off from running in hopes my knees would get better, and last night it dawned on me that I am not doing enough yoga! So this morning I set aside enough time to do a class.

I clicked on Yoga Today to find Adi's Yoga for Runners class. Yippee! I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart (and my kneecaps) for a wonderful and most timely class. I hope I can use it and remember some of the poses for the rest of my training until the big race on September 13th! My knees truly feel better already.

Thanks again yogatoday.

You guys rock!!!

Thank you so much. The site is excellent, the classes are excellent.

I feel blessed!

A friend from pilates class mentioned Yogatoday.com and suggested I try it.

I was complaining of feeling drawn in, constricted. The level one instruction is a great introduction for me. What I enjoy most of all is the wonderful messages you send for us about our spirit and opening to life.

Your classes are most nurturing. Thank you for putting it out there for me to share.

After two car accidents and one snowboarding accident, I was no longer able to be active as I was in high school. Though I wasn't even 20 years old when those accidents happened, I could barely go through the day without back pain (stemming from my hips). Some days would be more severe than others.

By age 21 I was fed up with being unable to play sports that I had previously enjoyed and was starting to gain weight as a result. I decided to go to a massage therapist who stressed the importance of stretching my injured areas that had been covered in scar tissue for the last five years of my life.

I had always been very flexible, having practiced karate and figure skating as a child, and was shocked to find muscles in my body that could barely be moved.

I had previously flirted with yoga for fun, but was now turning to it much more seriously as a way to stretch all of those obscure muscles that so badly needed to be stretched.

Without the time or money to go to a yoga class, I was OVERJOYED to hear about Yoga Today in a random magazine. I am so thankful for the work that you do. I started watching Yoga Today once a day and now that I am working (something I wasn't able to do before because of my injuries) I try to fit it in every couple of days. I am excited to go back to my massage therapist so that he can see the change that has happened in just one month!

One problem I still have is daily pain in my right IT band but the stretches I have learned through Yoga Today (specifically affecting the hip flexors) have dramatically helped my health.

Thanks again! I don't know what I'd do without you!

I cannot express how grateful I am for your amazing gift of yoga.

My husband and I are currently out of work, and yoga classes are a luxury that I had to give up about a year ago. Not only have I been able to continue to practice, but my practice has grown, by being exposed to different styles and teachings.

It is a great thing that you are all doing.

Thank you.

I have been pursuing the yoga practice on and off for several years now. The problem is that I cannot afford to take any actual classes, and you can only get so far with books and videos.

Losing motivation is easy when you have to expend more effort finding the the workout than doing it. I make it a goal to work out every day, or close to it, to stay fit and to make it a habit for life, but I rely strictly on things I can do in my home without any equipment.

Because of this I've been doing pilates everyday for the past few months, but the routines are beginning to grow dull, even if I switch up the order, because all the moves are the same. So I began to search online for something new.

I can't tell you how happy I was to discover this website! This is just what I need to pursue my interest in yoga! Thanks to you, I can practice yoga everyday to not only stay in shape, but also to attain the level of peace that one can only achieve through yoga.

I am forever grateful.

Thank you, and keep up the magnificent work.

My boyfriend and I have committed ourselves to 30 days of yoga for the month of July. Last night we were talking about how neither of us want to stop this daily practice at the end of the month.

Thank you for coming into our home each morning with something new, challenging, and inspiring.

Thank you.

I've been looking for a way to be led in practice in my own home whenever I need it, so this is PERFECT. It fits me and my lifestyle.

Thank you so much for providing this.

You have truly saved us.

We are busy yoga teachers who love to keep growing and learning. We daily look forward to happily submitting ourselves to your capable teaching. The variety and imparted knowledge is amazing!

We have become more inspired in our own practice and love bringing that inspiration into our daily classes.

Thanks so much,

A bunch of Arkansas fans

Last week I completed my Masters of Education - Yoga Today provided me with health and peace of mind to balance the rigors of graduate school.

Thank you for helping to shape my life in such a meaningful way.

I was so much looking forward to my summer vacation. I needed these two weeks off so badly, but then my husband got ill and we had to head back home only after 4 days.

As you can imagine my mood was spoiled and I was frustrated. However, I thought I will make the best out of the situation and have my own little Yoga retreat at home, not telling anyone that I am actually back in town.

I remembered the busy schedule of a Yoga retreat I have been to this February: morning meditation, followed by morning asanas, healthy lunch, restorative poses and evening meditation.

After only two days I feel so relaxed and grateful for this "emergency kit". Yoga today inspires my morning asanas, and keeps me motivated as it is hard to practice on your own.

I have one week of vacation left, my mood is at its best and my husband is feeling better as well. I realized I do not need to go far away to exotic places to relax. I can do it at home. Yoga is the key.

Jeg er her og nu.

I had so much fun today with Neesha's backbending/hip opening workout! I was laughing out loud in pigeon pose.

Thank you so much, as always, for bringing your joyful spirits to my day.

Melissa

I cannot say thank you enough!!

I am a mother of two boys, (5 and 3) and Yoga Today always has a positive impact on my physical energy, and more importantly, it gives me more patience and presence with my children. I have tried yoga before, but never could consistently practice due to cost or scheduling or both. Now I have the freedom to practice whenever I want.

I just found out we are expecting our third child, and today I did my first Yoga Today while pregnant. I was a little worried that it might be too much, (my first trimester has always been very difficult) but with Sarah's first time beginner's class, I was able too keep up and never felt over-extended. (And I hadn't actually done a yoga session in a while).

I was wondering if you could add a class or two for pregnant women, especially in the later stages when our bodies get unwieldy! I know this is a huge request, but it can't hurt to ask:) I will try to keep up as best I can otherwise!! I know it will make a positive difference in my pregnancy.

Thank you again for all the hard work and especially to the three wonderful teachers. They all really are quite wonderful. You are truly spreading love and unity though your teaching.

Namaste.

Holly

I was introduced to yoga again over 3 yrs. ago. I had tried it in the past but convinced myself that it wasn't for me, I enjoyed other activities such as strength training, kickboxing, etc. and I had a difficult time slowing down for yoga.

Well, 3 yrs. ago when I was introduced to it again, I discovered that the challenge of slowing down and breathing became more appealing to me, because it was and continues to be the greatest challenge in my practice.

I came across Yogatoday's website in a magazine and have been hooked ever since. I have also told everyone I know about it, to a point that I sometimes feel as though I am preaching about the great benefits I have discovered through yoga.

Not only have I been able to slow down, stay more present in the moment and relax, I have also become more toned and long. My confidence and self assurance is balanced and yoga has helped me deal and move beyond some difficult issues that I have been afraid to address in the past. I continuously say that yoga has been my therapy.

Moreover, yoga has also impacted what I put into my body, as I find my body craving more healthy choices. I am on the verge of quitting smoking, after smoking for over 10yrs. and I intend to use yoga as a calming and strengthening method.

I am a firm believer in the mind, body and soul connection and I didn't recognize just how much I was until I consistently began practicing yoga. If it weren't for yoga today, I would not have been able to explore my practice more fully, as classes can become expensive and monotonous.

Thank you Yoga today for offering all of us the freedom to live our lives mindfully and peacefully.

Maria

I've been practicing with the three of you for almost two years now. Initially, yoga today was a saving grace while I was on tour; living out of hotel rooms for 9 months. Obviously I couldn't take a regular yoga class when I didn't stay in the same place longer than a few days!

The expertly taught classes and soothing meditation truly eased my stress and fatigue on the road, and helped me begin to find my true inner nature and remember who I was while I was living with a slew of strangers in close quarters.

Now, back in Brooklyn, I am still practicing with Yoga Today! I work in the theater, and don't make very much money. This amazing resource has helped me to see that I can strive toward happiness and contentment and be healthy and fit, without breaking the bank! Yesterday I did attend my first class in a series of 12 beginner classes, but I will still be practicing with yoga today in between!

Thank you all so much for helping so many people!

I live in rural Montana where the cattle outnumber the people by tens of thousands. You can imagine, there are not very many yoga studios around!

I love your site and always enjoy being able to feel like I've gone to a class with an amazing instructor without leaving my house. Please keep up the good work and I look forward to being able to download more classes soon! I travel a lot for work and bring my laptop with me so as to be able to keep up with my practice on the road.

Thanks so much!

Hello,

I just wanted to thank everyone behind yogatoday,
for the wonderful classes that you are sharing with us.

I've been following for awhile now, enjoying every minute, but today it hit me in the middle of Sara Kline's class for hikers, cyclists and joggers-
I really love yoga! It makes me so happy...
Now I want to become a yoga teacher.

God bless you!

I have learned so much about the practice of yoga and about myself through Yoga Today.

Practice is now meaningful, not mindless. All the instructors are so gifted and devoted.

Thank you.

Yoga Today is truly a site that reaches out to community! In this case - the world! Thank you.

I am a Yoga Teacher in training and you help me to connect as a teacher and participant.

Again, thank you for sharing. I hope we can meet in the future.

Thank you so much for keeping this a free service! I am a self-sustained grad student, so money is tight-- but it's such a relief to not have to sacrifice my practice as I continue my education.

I come back to Yoga Today several times a week and I am always impressed by the quality of the instruction, the depth of explanation that helps me find proper alignment, and the amount that I have grown!

Many thanks, and keep up the good work!

I have recommended your site to most people I know and love.

This has been a life saver for me since I recently had to quit going to my yoga center. I chose my time and the surroundings I want.

Thank you yoga today for making my practice move on.

I found Yoga Today about 3 months ago, and have been hooked ever since!

I come back nearly every day - I love the variety of classes and the instructors are superb. There's always something new or challenging to learn, and my practice has grown by leaps and bounds.

Thanks so much!

i practiced yoga in high school and discontinued it after I started college. I have always wanted to start doing it again. However, I am not the kind of person who feels comfortable exercising in class. with yogatoday.com, I get the benefits of yoga class in the privacy of my home.

I usually start my day with a session-first thing in the morning. I feel better the days I practice yoga. thank you for providing this alternative service.

I appreciate Adi's emphasis on back, hip openings, and core strengthening.

I literally travel consistently 11 months of the year, and with Yogatoday.com I have increased energy, fortitude, and less reactivity.

I've practiced yoga for years, and love Adi's gift for detailing the poses with such precision that I'm amazed I've deepened and learned from my own home.

All three instructors bring their own breadth of experience, interests, strengths, humor too.

Can't say enough thanks.

I just want to thank you for helping me with my seeking.

I knew I had to do something with my body in this journey, but I could not find a way that feels right. Then reading a book, I met with yoga -real yoga- different from the popular appearance of it. And with yoga today I had the chance to try it.

I'm realizing surprisingly my body has some answers. With the right pose, with the right breath; you get more than you give to it and there starts a real communication with the body. (A little experience of yoga every day brings you to a level, I feel like yoga is the right way to treat our body.)

I'm sure there are several ways to expand what we know about our body, about our physical being; but I chose to trust to yoga because it's an old doctrine- maybe the oldest- and with you, I easily reached it.

I can not put these into words sufficiently but I simply thank you for sharing this knowledge and spreading it.

For many years I have promised myself to hook up with a Yoga class but my traveling lifestyle rarely permits to me to enroll in a class.

I am now two weeks inside with all other options removed but to do your daily class and it seems to me like a blessing from cyberspace!

Blessings and peace

Thank you for sharing yoga online.

I've recently moved to Sweden from Canada (where I have been practising yoga for about 2yrs). I'm so glad to have found you and can't wait to get back to feeling fabulous with yoga!

Thanks again!!!

I am so grateful for Yoga Today.

After my first surgery for endometriosis four years ago, I was told to do yoga to help with recovery. Unfortunately, I live in an area where there isn't easy access to a studio and the few around don't have classes at times that coincide with my work schedule.

Until I found Yoga Today, the only access to yoga I had was DVDs. Most of them focus on physical fitness but ignore the mental, spiritual, and other healthful benefits. Additionally, while they showed basic postures they never explained the theory behind them.

Since finding Yoga Today, I've been able to move my practice beyond mere strength and flexibility to something deeper. Because you offer classes for various levels, I'm able to learn and progress instead of doing the same routine for months at a time.

I've also seen more spiritual benefits that have helped reduced my stress and deepened my enjoyment of my practice. Yoga has helped me live a more normal life despite the difficulties of having an incurable disease like endometriosis.

Yoga Today has been a great blessing for me. I now have access to knowledgeable instructors of yoga who can guide me through a real practice. I also feel like I'm now capable of working with my body to overcome endometriosis rather than feeling like it's against me.

Thank you so much for giving this to people everywhere. It makes a difference in the quality of my life every day.

Thank you yoga class !!!! Thank you teachers you are very nice to see every day !!!!

Yoga today gives me a chance to unwind after a hectic day at work.

I am grateful for the work everyone does at Yoga today.

It helps me be refreshed for the next day, so I can be my best at serving people at the hospital where I work as a therapist.

I practiced Pilates for about 6 years and loved the tone and definition from my workouts, but began to feel that something was missing. I ventured out into different venues of strength building and aerobics searching for a fulfilling exercise.

I started attending yoga classes offered at a local gym and was captivated. I finally found what I was looking for: A practice that united mind, body, and breath.

Yoga has become a way of life for me. I am very grateful for this opportunity to grow and learn. Thank you for providing inspiring and challenging videos assessable to anyone who strives for enlightenment.

Since I got my yoga teacher's tip to watch your site I practice yoga nearly every day, so thank you!!

It's stimulating and invigorating.

I feel at all levels getting more myself each day.

i have never practiced yoga-not really. never had a teacher, you all are my first. i love it & i love you all.

each one of you make important contributions to each practice with your unique perspectives and characters. i believe that you each spread a bit of your individuality and energies around this earth in such a positive way. you should be proud of yourselves because it is inevitable that in this way you will change the world.

thank-you, thank-you, thank-you! special thanks also to the producers.

I had double total hip replacement eight years ago and no longer feel comfortable doing high impact sports. I have found yoga to be a life saver and Yoga Today to be my saving grace.

I love all three women and their different yoga styles - I need each one at different times.

Thank you for your site. I would not be where I am today with you.

As a full time homeschooling mom of six young children, getting out of the house is a challenge. I was able to get out once a week for a local class but since i found yoga today i've been able to do yoga every day for the past month.

I felt the benefits from just one class a week. Every day has had an amazing effect on my strength, energy, and calmness of mind.

Thank you for these wonderful classes that I can do right in my own home at a time that works for me.!!!
