Stretches are great .The instructor is clear & does not talk about other subjects.

Dang, Jenny, this presentation is as comforting as if June Cleaver herself was the host! Very well done 👏 video, even more important, useful indeed! Bravo!

I love how you say right and left and we can mirror.😊. I get confused when some instructors don't mirror their commands, but do the opposite.

Love the stretching for neck/shoulders. Blamed my discomfort on bad pillow.

This is doable... I suffer with chronic pain, due to arthritis. Everyday is a challenge, but gotta keep moving!!!

I have a lot of shoulder pain and I knew exercise would help but I just didn’t do it. Just sat with the heating pad. I ran across your video this morning and did the exercises with you and WOW! My shoulder doesn’t hurt! I can’t believe it! I will be back. Thank you!

I do most of these stretches when I am on my exercise bike each day. They take 14 minutes out of the hour that I am paddling. I'm 90 years old.

I really enjoy this workout. I like how you continue to remind me of not holding my breath, etc, and your careful explanations of each move and what muscle is being you.

I hadnt excercised for a long while. This was uplifting. I used to go 3xs a week to the YMCA pandemic hit and just can't get myself to go back to that, but I need to exercise my bones. This works. Thank you so much.
