Im 40, served 12 years in the army, 8 in war zones.  And I lifted weights and carried around 100lbs of gear for years.  My back, knees and ankles were all in pain constantly.  I quit working out over and over again because I hated the constant pain.

4 weeks ago I decided to try yoga, and now Im doing this video 5 times a week, mon thru fri and I feel better then I have since I was 20!!

Adrienne your the best, thank you so much for this video and I wish you all the best in life.

this video is from 2014. We're in 2018. so i thought it'd be a little silly to leave a comment. but then i scrolled down the comments and realized your videos from 4 year ago or more keep helping people that, just like me, are trying new habits, looking for health and harmony.... for that... thank you. your channel is amazing.

I struggle with insomnia and sleep in general due to anxiety. Last night after doing this video, I passed out and slept for 13 hours straight. Thank you for being amazing!!!!

I am one of those people who want to do yoga, but somehow in 15 minutes i want to quit everything and move on to something else, or i just check time every five seconds. This is first 40 minutes video i have accomplished and i'm so happy and so relaxed, thanks for the video

10 years on and these videos are still getting beginners like me into yoga. Thank you Adrienne. I appreciate you so much 🙏❤️

So this is my first attempt at yoga. I don't really want to join a class..there's people there and I don't do well with crowds..So I decided I'd try it online. So in with the search, this was the first video I found. So I gave it a shot. And I gotta say, holy crap I felt defeated. I am a little over weight so some of the position would just simply not work for me because of my gut. I did the 40 minutes and came the end doing the corpse I actually cried a bit. I'm not quite sure why, probably just the stress from feeling like I'm failing. Or the frustration of being a bit over weight. So a few hours later I figured, well she is healthy and skinner than I am, maybe I should look into over weight yoga or someone with a body type similar to mine. And I have to say, after like hours of searching. I'm coming back here. I like how you explain things. You're not stressing me out or anything like that. The stress I was doing was just my own ideas of what I should be and think I am not. I'm going to try sticking to this. Thank you for these videos. I think they will help me quite a bit.

Being in quarantine has made me feel restless so I figured to go back to yoga. This video has been amazing. The 40 minutes seemed to pass by quickly. I love your calm approach and how this video was perfectly paced. Thank you for this! I might try the 30 days of yoga sometime too.

This is a lovely foundational return to yoga for me after illness and a bunch of unavoidable medication. Slowly on the mend now and slowly moving back into longer yoga. I trust you to get me stronger because you have before! Thank you for being so welcoming and friendly and non-judgemental.

2021, and this video has introduced a pretty beat up 54 year old who did way to much heavy labour in his youth to yoga. Thank you so much for your supportive introduction to something that has changed my life.

[ValkyrieWasted]

i know some people are not liking your chatter, but its one of the reasons i find your video's so easy to relate to.
thankyou for making yoga alone a special and fun experience. i love my time on the mat with you.

Today is 7th April of 2024 and I performed this yoga practice for the first time. I've been doing 10/20/30 minutes of yoga practices for the past one month and half so when I stumbled upon this beginners playlist I decided to give this video a try. What I've discovered that most of the positions I've learnt from my previous practice but still there were some new ones. And I've done a pretty good job per my satisfaction. It feels so good to move my body intentionally and become stronger with each practice. Thank you Adrienne ❤

[paulamcgivern]

I can' believe its been 2 years since was last here. Cultivating the beginners mind again and being gentle with my body. Thank you again🙏

My son sent me a link to your yoga workout after telling me how much better he feels and how he noticed significant alignment in his body. I'm 71 and I just did your 40 minute beginners workout. I love your stress free and specific instruction. The is my new health habit. Thank you so very much!

Big Up Adriene! 53 yo male started my yoga journey 2 weeks ago with the 30 min beginner video. glad i did, this 40 min is a bit of a step up i felt. Many thanks for all your support advice and videos!

[LisaTothestars]

10 years later. Still going strong. Thank you

[bethanykoop]

I'm way better at this than I thought I would be. She's a wonderful teacher; I love listening to her voice

I decided I wanted to try yoga for relaxation and to help me be more balanced and flexible. I did your 20 minute video yesterday and felt great, I just got finished doing this one and feel amazing. Thank you for these videos, I hope to be doing them more often and join a yoga class as well! You're very helpful and I like how you make yoga more about how you personally feel about your body rather than getting the poses exactly right.

I've moved from the 20 minutes beginners' video to this one. I am at a particularly stressful point in my life, and your beautifully calm approach, and slow build up are just what I need. Thank you.

I tried yoga last week but the instrutor was too stressful so I decided to search for classes on youtube.
I just did this begginers' class and in the middle of it I started crying. I think it was on the child pose. I don't know why, nothing sad happened to me or anything during the past years but I think it was stress being released. I suffer from generalized anxiety, last year I even had a seizure and ended up on the ER. I've been a lot better now with medication and exercise, but never tried yoga.
I just ended this class and I am so surprised! I don't feel the usual stiffness on my shoulders anymore. To be honest I am surprised with how light my body and mind feels after only 40 minutes of yoga. I will keep doing these online classes and even look for a new instrutor. Thank you.

Its been 7 years I think since this video was posted, and look at the new people who keep on coming and returning to this video. Adriene, thank you for existing as well as for creating this wonderful channel that's meant not only for yogis but to a kind like me who's literally new to the Yoga World. I love the way how you explain every poses, the way you guide us as if you're really here, teaching it live; how you assure us that we can get through this routine without any fancy equipments just an open heart and mind. This is the best yoga channel ( a real life-changer ) and your the best yoga mentor ever! Keep posting, Ms.Adriene... I'll be looking forward to your new videos every day. Lovelots!
