My Mother in law and I have been practicing YWA with the 30 day yoga challenge -Home (in May) and now Courage (for June), we have been blown away. She’s a clinical psychologist and I’m a student occupational therapist. We are both so grateful for our yoga practice on the daily. Thank-you for making such an impact in our lives and our pup, Gilbert the great dane! <3
Hello Adriene I tried this Yoga and realized that I was very stiff and couldn’t do a lot of these poses could you help me how to start since I run a lot and my body is stiff as I don’t strech ��
Iam doing the warm up and cool down videos every time I go jogging but this…this really helped relax and sort out those little knots I had been feeling in my knees. I am going jogging tomorrow and this will have helped keep me safer from injury. Plus I always feel great after my practice with Adriene.
You are one of the best teachers I’ve had in my 14 years of practice, all in “live” studios previous to the COVID lockdown. I didn’t think I’d like on-line classes, especially after I checked out a lot of the other on-line teachers. But given that I had no other choice, I kept looking-until I found you. Just the right mix of humor, focus, technique, humility, and personal honesty for me. Not to mention Benji. One of our two Snowshoe Siamese cats likes to wander on to my mat during practice, so I identify with the human-animal yoga connection. I discovered your videos at the beginning of April, started one of the 30-day journeys, and haven’t looked back since. It has saved my mind, body, and spirit during these past months. I’ve since done the other 30-day one and am now repeating the first. I’ve never had the motivation to start an in-home practice, so I’ve never practiced every day before. Thank you for getting me to do that. My local studio has just started outdoor classes under a beautiful pavilion in a small park nearby. Hadn’t practiced outside before and am loving it. But I’m still watching your videos on the days I don’t go to class. Thank you so much for being there for the world. You are making a huge difference to many people’s lives, including mine.

Literally went on my first run for a looong time yesterday and thought about finding this practice to do today… and it was just waiting for me in the June calendar! Kismet! My legs are shaking and heart is happy!
That felt great! I’ve been doing a lot of sitting and traveling by car lately so I needed a good stretch. Thanks Sean!!
This practice was exactly what I needed today after a not-so-great run! Glad I showed up for myself to let go of the agitation while also addressing some tight areas that need attention! Thank you so much for always being just what I need, Adriene!
I just received your newsletter and wanted to say think you for all the work you do in all parts of this community… in ALL communities. It pains me that there are people out there who make you feel like you need to address the fact that you ARE but one human, and that you ARE doing the work, even if people don’t see it. I just want to let you know that I do see it. I see you. And appreciate you more than I can put into words. You’ve inspired me to want to teach yoga, and to be a space for people who need an escape, whether it be away or within. Thank you for being here, for being human, for BEING. <3
After day 13 of courage series, this was much needed! Really enjoyed this practice although I am not a runner. Thank you for your lovely letter too. I have found June 2020 calendar very challenging but am sticking with it thanks to your kind words, encouragement. Starting to notice a real change in how I feel mentally and physically. Thanks Adriene.
Just completed. Legs feel great, however, do you have one with more calf work? My outer calves get super tight when I run. I end up splitting my runs up so i can foam roll in the middle. Not going to be very practical when I run my half marathon in September.
Loved it. 48 year old getting moving and knees are not happy. Glad I found this set of videos. ❤
I been practising yoga since MCO COVID 19 with Yoga With Adriene.
Thank you Adriene for introducing yoga to me.
My running form is corrected and unknown running injury prior to yoga is healed.
Hei coach can we have a new playlist, something like post legs day, post arms, post upperbody
Checking in from Portland, Oregon! Love these stretches! Thanks again for posting all these wonderful videos!
Just a few really deep stretches. I enjoy deep stretches on my off day.
22:08 My feet have never been further away from my body than they were right then
In 2019, this was just a regular yoga video. In 2020, this is now my post-protest-marching yoga.
Thank you, Coach! This helped greatly after a 10 mile. Seriously, incorporating yoga into all my workouts has been a life saver…will continue to spread the word
Wonderful sequence, chill, and just what I needed! Thank you <3
This one is so great for me! I am not a runner, I am 70 y/o, I love YWA, and I love this session. Will bookmark it. Thanks, Adriene.
I just wanted to thank you for your email today…I am a fellow business owner who has struggled with how to respond to all that has taken place in our world over the past few months. I’ve dealt with a lot of guilt for what I haven’t “posted” and your words spoke to me today.
I’ll surely try that later, and I’d love to see more yoga videos from you!:)
Good Morning from Bonnie Scotland and BOY did I need this DELCIOUS stretch after completing Day 6 of your EPIC NON-STOP PILATES 34 CLASSIC MAT EXERCISES…my muscles certainly felt like my favourite expression of yours currently ‘wet noodles’ but I needed a break today -Thanks Coach Vigue!
Breath is key! Such a great session after trail running the Wallowas. Thanks Adriene for the tips and smiles! Go Runners of the Sage
The best thing about Adriene is that she doesn’t remind you to smile she just says random things that bring the smile out. And of course my other favorite thing about Adriene is Benji. ��
Benji at the very end of the video though… ���� the most peaceful dog in the world �� love you guys, thx for everything Adriene. And thanks for your incredible letter yesterday about boundaries. Peace✌️❤️
Niiiiiiiiiicely stretched now! That was great… wish I’d had these gorgeous stretches when I used to run. Glad to have them now. Namaste.
Love love love! I thank you so much! Inspiration is (from and to) everywhere. <3 Growing inside
Adrienne (in 2016) “This year is so great so far”
Viewers (in 2020) HAHA
You made me run my first marathon. Just before my first marathon i got a hamstring injury. Have the practice with you 4-5 times a week and able to finish ( 4:33). Thank you Adrienne ����
The reason why I love you so much is because it still looks like work for you. I hate watching the videos (unless its a performance) where it looks effortless because it makes me feel bad that these woman don’t even sweat. You usually show things that still challenge you and it makes you more approachable and human as well as showing what I can strive for.
Sean Vigue!! Four and a half years ago, I finally made small but significant decisions for better health. My 3 most significant changes: good cardio, 50 pounds lighter, yet considerably stronger. I’m not boasting. I’m sincerely thanking you for being one of the pieces of the puzzle that have led me to success. You have been part of my success for over 4 years. Merci beaucoup from Ontario Canada.
I have recently injured my ankle while I was running. It is a minor fracture but i must wait 5 weeks until I can do high impact activities. I was running and doing yoga with you before, now I would like to keep doing yoga. Do you have special videos that can be done with an ankle injured? It would be great if I can still do yoga because it has helped me a lot. Thank you
After an 11 mile run this morning I was really looking forward to this video today. It did not disappoint. Thank you Adrienne.
When we see you in your casual gear Adriene we know we’re in for some slow and gentle and it was, no vinyasas just awesome stretches. Even so I still felt the heat and again found slow can be really powerful. I am not a runner but I shall remind all the many runners in my family ��♀️����♂️��♀️����♂️��♀️����♂️ how good this practice is. See you tomorrow on the mat for Day 15 of Courage, we’re half way through already! ����♀️����♀️����
every time she says “this year is great so far” I just shake my head
This was a great stretch workout prior to a run I had planned, but the weather has gone from slight drizzle to heavy rain, I will have to try this again prior to my run.
I laughed so hard when you said: “Addy is my imaginary friend”.
Thanks a lot coach Vigue!
Bonjour Adriene. Thank you for this video. it is a really good stretch for me. I have had a knee issue from running and not stretching enough. Since I started doing yoga with you, my knee is back to normal and I started to run again. It feels so good and my whole body feels much better doing yoga every day with you and Benji! You are both adorable! You are a beautiful lady and you inspire me. Big hug.
This is a perfect practice to do after spending the last few days walking 20 kilometeres a day ��
Going for a run in the springtime sun tonight? Don’t forget to stretch. This short video will target all the muscles you use while running. #running #workoutathome #stretching #fitness
I usually stick with more recent videos, but following the June Courage calendar has led me to do some practices I might not otherwise select. It’s an honor to be part of this community and to see you evolve as a teacher. Gives me a sense of permission to grow, to explore, to be myself.
Thanx for gr8 session! Following ur channel benefits me so much, luvU
Great video, Sarah! What’s better than yoga and pretty arrangements?!
Courage -Day 14 done ✅ I’m not a runner but I definitely enjoyed this restorative stretch on the beautiful Sunday morning �� Nameste… ����
its been ages since you’ve done a yoga video,well needed though sarah!
By far my favorite routine you’ve posted! Felt absolutely magnificent after a weekend of strenuous backpacking. Thanks @seanviguefitness!!!
This was perfect today. I’m sore from yesterday’s run + getting ready for a protest today. Great wake up for the body
I used to run to purge. I don’t run anymore. This practice brought up some old feelings for me, but it was good to reflect on that time in my life and how yoga has helped me to learn how to be kind to myself. As Adriene said, “We’re so lucky to have these bodies!”
Can we have a flexibility and abs for scoliosis. Thanks for your work Sean.
“Allowing the dust to settle”, thank you for the kind remainder 😉
Did my first run of the year. Been afraid of the pain that would likely occur. No pain. Just jello legs lol. Thanks for the laughs!!!
Such a lovely practice I can’t believe I have not practice this one before now but thank u for choosing this one for us Adriene, I really enjoyed it much love you and everyone practicing Namaste guys have a great Sunday ����������❤��
First view and comment, that’s never happened before
Definitely gonna try this in my routine. Thanks Coach Brian.
I’m struggling with Achilles pain that is affecting my running/football. Will this yoga help to cure my problem?
