All my life i’ve been rather gluttonous and never listened to what my body really needed. Never exercising or anything of the sort. About 6 months ago, I got a gnarly knee injury. The pain from the injury at first was unbearable to the point i was nearly bed ridden for the first month after, wearing knee braces as sparingly as possible so as not to weaken my already damaged knee. Since then my knee never really regained its strength, it is so weak that i have difficulty climbing stairs. I digress. Long story short, my legs feel incredible after following this video. At the end as i was laying on my back, i nearly broke into tears because of how much better it felt. Thank you so much for this. This is officially part of my daily routine.

Ive had horrible knee issues after having long covid. I know this is from a while ago but im so glad i found this. All the other videos on youtube made my knees hurt. This one i can do every day before work and its not hurting my knees at all! Im so grateful ❤

TWO DAYS of doing this and already my knees don't scream to the heavens first thing in the morning, nor bother me when I take a seat. Two days!! I'll be watching many more of these classes. Thank you!!

Very kind practice for problematic knees & aging yogi. Thank you.

I am happy rhat I found you. This was very effective and knee friendly. I have knee surgery, so I can not do kneeling like exercises. I am sick of yoga teachers who is trying to show us how they are perfect instead of trying to help us. So I really enjoyed your video, I can not wait to see more! Thanks a lot! I appreciate your effort, time.

I have recently hit 300 pounds. I had some knee pain before but now it is affecting my hips and my back. When I get up in the morning I am so stiff and sore everywhere. My mobility is that of a 50 year old and I am half that age. I’m starting to gain my mobility back with this video. Every morning. Today is my first day and my hips and knees feel great. I’m so excited to start seeing improvement in my routine as I work towards running and harder calisthenic exercises! Never give up on yourself! Victory is right around the corner!

Recently hurt my knee while I made a commitment to do yoga every day as a part of a 30-day challenge. So glad I found your video so I could continue without putting pressure on it! Thank you 😊

Thank you for this practice! My favorite was the balance work near the end.

[WiseFamin]

Yeay! A class just for me! Thanks Dr Melissa!

[iamjuliejames]

Thank you so much! This was a perfect workout for me. My knees don’t like standard yoga positions and my hips are quite tight, but this was doable and I finished!

[libmitchell]

this is so good and pleasant to do as well.

been dealing with knee pain for years. thank you for making so many videos towards this! would you be able to compile a playlist?

[sheliajoiner]

Totally new to idea of yoga. Exercises hard since my TKR since I can't get on hands and knees and knees swell often after things like biking and walking. Hope this helps. Glad to find something that promises to help build strength without causing pain and further damage. Finding gentle exercises for people in 70's isn't easy.

Thank you for this! I injured my knee while figure skating four years ago and had to quit, I’m picking it up again and your video is helping me prepare my knees🩷

[laurastevens]

This is similar to what I do in PT but with a few more things. I have chronic knee pain that I’ve been told my only option is surgery which I want to avoid. I am going to start doing this daily and hopefully will help!

[davidfarquhar]

I found this really helpful for working on the muscles around my knee without causing any pain. It's nice to be able to do some yoga even with a knee injury

[persiaglover]

I am so happy that I found you! I developed runner's knee in 2020 and it's been a challenge working out ever since. I stopped for a long period of time and now my muscles are weak and tight. If you have any recommended videos of yours to watch please let me know. I can't wait to learn more from you.Thank you!
