    Hi Kirstie, I’m a 75 yr old man and I’m stiff as a board. Just found you on UA-cam a few days ago as the title of this video describes me to a T. Just finished my 3rd day in a row doing your moves. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this very basic starter session. It suits me perfectly. I plan on doing this daily for a month and see what happens. Thanks for being here when I needed something to jumpstart me back to moving better. You are just what I needed, when I needed it. Much appreciate your presence. Ed B.

    Kirstie, I am so grateful for your wonderful class! I'm 70 years old, have never practised any kind of sport, and have been diagnosed with prediabetes. It's imperative that I start moving and building some muscle. Your gentle exercises were surprisingly doable, and yet I'm sweating and feel all my muscles have stretched a bit. I am making a commitment with myself to do your class every day and maybe after some weeks advance to a more energetic class. Blessings and thank you so much for your time and generosity. Namaste.

    Just tried this for the first time today. I'm 61, and used to love to do yoga in my younger days. My mobility isn't quite what it was (bad knees), but I really enjoy this video at this stage in my life. I definitely felt some great stretches!

I was offered Chair Yoga through the VA Medical center here in St. Louis. Beth interviewed me and gave me a preparatory list for her class via Zoom. She recommended UA-cam and I found your video clip. Wow! Combining your video with a brief time on my elliptical is definitely going to be awesome. Yes, I remembered to subscribe. Thank you for your presentation.

    Thank you. I believe this is something I can commit to. I'm 73, in reasonably good health, but am a low energy person who works at my desk from early morning to late at night. This is what I need.
