    Kassandra, I've been a fan for a long time. Somehow you always know just what I need. Today was a wonderful example. I spent Saturday volunteering at a local spay/neuter clinic for cats, especially strays living in a large park downtown. It was 12 hours on my feet, up and down from the floor because I was working the post-op recovery station. We got through 125 successful operations. I felt great about it but by Sunday morning I was so stiff and sore I could barely walk, so I chose this class for my morning yoga and it was beyond perfect, just the stretch and release I needed. And when Chloe started purring, I felt like all was well in the universe. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please don't ever stop making these videos. XXXOOO

    This morning, I honestly felt so negative - I have a ton of stress & things to take care of, and while I know in my heart that it’s not helpful to turn to hate, it was just really hard to refocus on love. Then, I decided to do this practice, and I feel love in my heart and trust that I can get through it. Thank you for all the times you’ve been there for me Kassandra. my heart is grateful for you and your practices!!

    This heart opening yoga spoke to me today. It’s the first energetic and more strength inducing of yoga practices I’ve done in two weeks since I first got Covid. It gave me hope that I’m regaining my strength and energy, because I could feel I’m much stronger than I’ve been and I was able to do all the moves at full capacity, which brought me joy. The whole practice warmed my heart and made me smile. I loved that you could hear the happy purrs of Cleo at the end in shavasana ❤ Namaste xo

But the fact that you INVITED me to participate without expectation was cathartic. I cried. Cleo's purrs were perfect. I felt so much better I've done this practice several times to ease my grieving heart. THANK YOU for making yoga approachable and for embracing everyone's version of yoga. THANK YOU.

    I have a video suggestion - I've done most of your classes and have no trouble with the intermediate ones. But in the advanced ones, I do not know how to do things like arm balances and headstands. I was hoping you could make a class or series of intermediate to advanced transition videos to learn how to get into some of the more advanced poses. Thank you :)

I used to have cats, but hubby is very allergic so we can’t have them anymore and I only get to play with kitties when I go to work as I’m an credentialed animal nurse. 😻Thank you for this practice.
