“I am only on the sixth DVD and feel a strengthening in the stretching of my body. I love the slow pace and the explanations of the exercises. I love the last five minutes of relaxation. Previously I had not noticed the tensions throughout my body that are now finding time to ease. Everyday has been a discovery of how much I needed this program. I thought that I was really in tune with my body but this has shown me quite a different picture that lies down deep. THANK YOU for these videos. I am sharing them with my chiropractor and integrative medicine doctors. I think there are a lot of women out there that could use these videos. When I read the testimonial of the woman who was in a car accident and the left side of her body was compromised but still found value in your product, I was convinced that it was right for me. If she could do it, so could I. Great job, folks!”

“I am 71 years old and have had many chronic health issues which leaves me being unable to do much in the way of exercise. On my own I have tried to do things to stay "moveable." I love the gentle yoga videos. I am very impressed with the teacher in this series. She is very encouraging to reach my potential while letting me know if I can't do something that she is seen doing, it's okay...just go to the extent that I am able. Her voice and her demeanor are gentle, to go along with the yoga she is teaching. It is a very soothing, pleasant experience each exercise. The videos are very good quality and I am amazed at their low cost. I encourage anyone wanting to strengthen their body, stay able to move without putting stress on fragile bones, and stay able to bend, reach and turn without muscle spasm and strain, to buy this gentle yoga program. It is excellent.”

“I am over sixty and have been struggling with joint pain. Incorporating cardio and strength training has helped. Adding Gentle Yoga to the mix has brought my healing to a new level. Cat Kabira does an excellent job on helping you focus on your body, learn where you are holding tension, and teaching your body to stretch and relax. She does this in a scientific rather than philosophical way, with which I am very comfortable. The gentle exercises and stretches are easy to modify for my particular needs. I have practiced other yoga videos but this one was the safest for my body. I can feel myself lengthening and I can focus more on releasing tension and relaxing throughout the day, even when I'm not watching the video. It is also strengthening my core. Thank you Cat and Margaret!”

“Thank you for this great series...Ive always wanted to begin yoga, but until now felt Id never feel comfortable or able to imagine myself even attempting it. This series of stretching and breathing is perfect for me...Im a little slow but I will get there.. The main thing I have noticed is how after one practise I felt calmer and ache free, this has made it worthwhile perservering...haha. Im really enjoying my 40 minute practise sessions.”

“My only comment concerning the yoga videos would be that the pace is too slow because of all the talking by the instructor.”

“So far, I love the Gentle Yoga Series. I have tried the first two days plus the introduction. I felt much better and more connected to my whole self. My joints felt more free and I had less pain. I anticipate enjoying the entire series as it is unlike any other video I have watched. Also, compared to live classes, I find it much easier to do the postures alone as I have ample time to adjust. Some reviewers were annoyed with all the talk and apparent waste of time. However, I feel the slowness helped me slow down. I was anxious to get on with it several times and certainly understand the frustration. However, over all, I feel the extra time is beneficial. Thank you for producing this series. I think it is exactly what I have been searching for and exactly what I need.”
