Thanks so much Kassandra! Before this quick and easy to follow yoga stretch i had some back pain and felt very groggy, ten minutes later and i no longer have any pains and feel much more refreshed!! Thankyou very much
These 10/30 videos are perfect. I really like the background music in some of the videos
Hey can you guys do a back strengthening workout? I have a weak back and it gets tired easily when I do various workouts.
Best yoga that I have been ever seen bcoz as I am not much flexible this is perfect for me………thank u so much
Thank you Kassandra! This is exactly what I needed this morning. I’ve got a long tough day ahead of me and my intention for today is to be present. Namaste

Thank you so much for this, I really appreciate it, I have been doing yoga for a while but I have never been very flexible and this helped a lot!!!!!!!!!

It cracked a dozen times and felt very good. Thank you so much, i think this was better than most of the stretches we have done in physical therapy.

Thx♥️♥️♥️ feel amazing just do it before
“What’s u[p party people?” I then realized I was on the wrong channel… Good stretch though.
My first time trying yoga and I really enjoyed it. I’m even sweating. Thank you.
that was actually one of the best stretches i’ve had in a while
Wow Kelli, i love those leggings! I need them. A really relaxing yoga workout, thank you Fitness Blender.:) ❤
Amazing video. Definitely adding this to my stretch routine. BTW what is the sythwave intro song at 0:00– 0:16?
This was perfect. 10 minutes is the perfect amount of time for me in the morning and before I go to bed. I’m so glad I found your channel!
You have given my mom and I a routine to follow every morning. We talk about how sweet your personality is and how we can feel your energy through the screen. Thankyou for all that you do! Send love to Benji from my mama and I!!
that’s awesome!
looks very helpful. We need to try, I hope it will help my son with better swim. technic.
For some reasons, his coach didn’t pay attention to flexibility.
thank you Evgeny.
Definitely subscribe.
This one is perfect for those days when my muscles are really sore and i don’t wanna push them too hard.. so i do this and recovery my whole body and then take my two rest days..
Wow I didn’t notice it was already 10mins. I will make this part of my daily routine.
Beautiful morning stretch! Loving the comments from the men!! I have a lot of men that practice in my circle, and they love it. Many of them are in their teens, early 20s, and some are adult businessmen. They all feel the benefits in terms of MENTAL HEALTH and of course, we build strength and balance and steadiness in the body as well. Enjoy gentlemen!!! Real men do yoga:)
Hi, super new to yoga, so far this is the only video that hasn’t completely kicked my ass so I’ll definitely use it a lot. Thank you for the calm, engaging, and not-too-challenging environment!!
Want more 10 minute sequences? Check out the full playlist! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW0v0k7UCVrkh5WZyHu0d0fWnaNgbmQTw
Not a competitive swimmer, but this class was perfect for my tight shoulders . I also really love your yoga towel, would you mind sharing where you bought it?
I was really tired this morning because I haven’t slept well, but these stretches helped me feeling more energized
I do this everyday for a week now, and have seen such a great improvement in my flexibility and overall flow! thank you so much Adriene!
Thanks for information
I want to know no. Of repetition of each stretch in one session
Or how many sessions in a day
Plz reply
Lots of love for this class Erin, you are amazing as always
Good to Do this in the Evenings too!.. Love you Adreine from India.
I’ve been practicing yoga with u, Adriene, 4 almost 1.5 year n this practice is still one of my favourite Thank u, Adriene.
This sequence got me into yoga and I cannot be more grateful. Love love love. ❤
Great sequence, Kassandra. I’m not a swimmer, but no matter. This was a wonderful sequence for anyone. Thank you.
Hey Kassandra, is there by any chance you can make another video like a Yoga series for swimmers? I have been trying to find a routine to do for every week as I go to practice swimming every day and I am always very stiff and I need it to expand my flexibility. Thank you:)
OMG, this was absolutely yummy and wonderful! Thank you Kassandra for these amazing practices!
Hello Erin. Can you please create a similar class for golfers? Keep up the great work!
Good news! Swimming pools open again on 1st of July here in Belgium:D Time to warm up those muscles. Thank you again for this great class
Love this workout, perfect quick for post Rugby, or after a good gym session. Also helps keep my sciatica at bay. Thanks for posting.
In addition to the four stretches, I’d recommend also stretching hip flexors and work on core strengthl, which helped me improve my swimming a lot…
I recently decided to practice self care a bit more by being more active working out and practicing yoga and I found your channel. I love all the videos that I’ve watched so far, and I watched your 20 minute bedtime yoga last night and actually slept a lot better than I have in a while. Thank you for this!
Why am I crying?
When you said bat your eyes open I literally had to bat tears out of my eyes. This was so beautiful and calming thank you <3
should i stretch and then warm or the vice versa?Should i do gymnastics and stretching after a warm up and cardio? do i do a cool down at the end? Since I have heard that never to stretch cold muscle
Erin, this practice was amazing. And I’m not a swimmer, but it was exactly what I needed today. From my heart to yours, namaste.
Came across yoga with Adriene, truly loved it. Your tonality and work is something I really love. I loved this video yoga for flexibility and could not stop myself from contacting you.

I would love to have you on expert to learn from you and ask you my questions.
That was one of my favourite (and I’m not a swimmer by the way). Thank you Kassandra.
That was amazing . It was a mediation and yoga session all in one
Great stretching. I have also upload a 5 min full body stretching video. You have inspired me
lol at 12:00 be like: DAMN HOW SHE DO THAT. THAT IS SO PARALLEL
don’t do the flexibility one because this will cause you to cross over if you do what he was saying which can cause major swimming shoulder injury. put your arms in a natural stretched out position, don’t have your arm touching your head
It was easier done than easier said! First time when did itI had hard time doing this, second time I was doing this I was waiting to be as hard as first time. Then it had finished like it was like two minutes
Great workout, but it would be great to add here some streches for neck, hands and trapezoid
This will be perfect for a cool down exercise! Thanks Kelli!
I’m here from the actress Danielle Perkins because she said she uses this every morning
Love you guys thanks for sharing this workout really helps my back ☺
This is my favorite flexibility routine, I have searched and tried so many videos! I love that you remind us to breathe! Thank you so much for all of your videos!
I often hear from people that they cannot do yoga because they are not flexible enough.
But being flexible is really the art of being open and available.
Open and available to what is current and present.
It’s an inside job, this… space… making.
We can start with the body but remember what the great yoga guides have shown us…
The body is a metaphor.
And I am no expert, but I suspect… there is a lot to balance and uncover.
This week we meditate on flexibility as conscious openness.
Booyah. Enjoy!
I love this workout. Even though it’s just 10 minutes, but it still was very effective for me.
After seeing this video I think what I lack most is flexibility. I mean I have a vo2max of 65, I run fast I’m getting faster and faster on bike but I have been doing triathlon for 4 years and I went from going at the same speed of people doing breathstroke when I do front crawl to still getting out with the second half of the swimmers in triathlon (overall). I’m not saying i have the best technique, but I’m almost as bad wether I swim twice or 5 times /week and I think I know the major points of the technique but even if I tried to apply them, it’s like there is something else getting in my way. I’m very not flexible of nature, just sitting on my feet hurt a lot so you can be sure I’ll give those a try! Thank you
Thanks, am super duper stiff from exercising! Nice to do yoga after waking up!
I’ve done other yoga for swimmers episodes, but I found this one was much easier on my half-depleted 50 yr old body. My back can seize up, particularly moving up from the hamstring stretch hands to the ground thing, I like the bend in the knees and spine incorporated there. As a masters swimmer at times plagued with several injuries together, this lesson approached each position/movement in a way not to aggravate anything, and gave a thorough warmup. It also provided some level of challenge when needed. Thanks for uploading the video!
After doing yoga with you guys my back pain has lessen!!! You’re amazing! Thank you
Loved it, as always! ♀️ Thankful for the consistency of your new video releases! I always look forward to your new flows and get so excited when I see the notification!
This is actually my first time doing yoga ever in my life. And I’m glad to say I now subscribe. Never felt so loose and good in the morning. Thank you!
Nice one Kassandra. This is the medicine feeling the power.
Hello Yogis! Who was just connecting with me doing this yoga sequence now???
thank you very much, but can you tell us how many days are we must do each exersice and how many minutes
I do this everyday. It is like brushing my daughter’s hair, if neglected, we pay the price TY so much. Namaste.
Yoga for cyclist is really helping with lower back pain. Thanks. I like the way you say “Open”, “Whoa”, sounds like a Minnesotan:)
Happy Thanksgiving to my favorite ppl!!! I’ll definitely be seeing you Friday@FitnessBlender

Wow, I have been in pain for 2 years in my lower back and upon just doing this, my back feels so much better. That is it, I am taking up Yoga. Thank you! I am actually really excited.
I loved this one!! Don’t know how I haven’t found it before. Perfect end to my workout
I really enjoyed it Erin… Thank you so much for your outstanding and challenging yoga workouts.. I was wondering if you could do a yoga workout dedicated to summer bodies.. Thanks again..Namaste
hello why did i feel like crying in the end? is this a sign of emotional flexibility?
I’m starting my yoga practice with you. I’m going to work on flexibly first and once i feel good about it I’m going to start your 30 day challenge
Ahhh thank you Adriene may you be blessed xxx you are the yogi I turn to when I can’t yogi myself grateful for you. Keep up the good work. I love iiiit ♥️
Loved this video! This was my first time doing yoga/meditation. I’ll definitely be returning to your channel for my daily routine☺️
Hello Kassandra. I’m an amputee of one leg. I do as much as I can with that and all this is right particularly for me. I tighten up easy, always good to loosen up the hips and pains as you say from sleeping. Thank you Kassandra I’m following you.
Good morning Erin! Today is my rest day and I just did this routine at 5:15am. I was going to do your Yoga for Your Shoulders (Perfect for Swimmers) class but did this one instead because some of my fitness friends did this recently! Oh how I love the holds so much! Not only shoulders, but also chest, upper and lower back, glutes, thighs, quads and hams feel so good! I must do this class again! Thank you so much Erin! Have a wonderful and blessed day!:-)
Thank you so much for this self love practice, I realy needed this today. You are amazing for sharing this with us all. XOXOXO
Fitness Blender; you guys have great yoga workout routines and I am only 12 years old and, I absolutely love it
The subtitles are big and overlap your postures. I was watching but discontinued as it became so difficult to follow your leg position.
Hi Evgeny, I’m really grateful I can learn a lot from all of your videos. I started to learn swimming at my 20’s and I’m still improving all of my strokes. For beginner intermediate, can you share your dryland training sets based on this video? Thank you.
You know that’s some good yoga when you tune out your 9 year old’s Fortnight play for 15 straight minutes! Thank you Adriene:)
I LOVE YOU!! Thank you so much for this specific swim-targeted video.
Who else is here because they can’t go to the pools due to coronavirus?
Excellent video now that I can’t go to the pool for my swimming practices due to COVID-19 virus…this will help me improve my swim and be more flexible in the water!! Can’t wait to see more of your videos please stay healthy ❤️
This feels great. I have had a lot of stiffness and pain due to a thyroid problem. I am finally medicated and starting to feel better. This is also helping to ease my stiffness and pain… bridging the gap in a way. thanks! I’m looking forward to getting back to fitness.
Thanks so much for this. I was at a loss. Cant swim all pools closed until further notice so routine has to change for the time being. Nightmare for the mind. I like your style of teaching, clear and concise. Namaste
5:06 How do You do it? I can do one hand rotation but both hands is impossible for me.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Did this together with the husband, we felt sooo good afterwards! Thank you so much! Perfect stretch class!
I have never done yoga all my life. I saw a lot of people’s morning routine involved yoga so I decided to do so. The first few minutes I was like this feels like exercising but after that my body feels all stretched out and relaxed. Thank you dear!
Hi Erin I am not a swimmer but this video is certainly giving me a very good feeling. Thank you.
wow I feel so good now…..a full body Thai massage + this video = awesomeness:D
i started competitive swimming at the age of 14. darn it
Exercise 1; Both hands rotation
Exercise 2: windmill rotation
Exercise 3: one hand rotation
Exercise 4: forwards and backwards hand rotations
Exercise 5: rotation with a stick
Exercise 6: rotation with a rubber band
Exercise 7: elbow rotations
Exercise 8: stretching
Exercise 9: stretching to the side
I am going to practice these exercises, but I am going to need to pay attention on my right shoulder because I suffered shoulder dislocation when I was younger. Also, I feel like strength exercise will be needed. I’ll keep watching more of tour videos and practice such exercises.
nice video thanks! background music a little distracting, could be lower
excellent thank you very much, very good video. we look forward to the next..Thanks
Awesome! Thanks for making this, my team’s instructor had to move away so it’s nice to get back into this
I don’t have a yoga mat and my floor isn’t carpeted, so I just do it in my bed before sleep.
Hi I have my finalle lifeguard exams in two months. This will help me thanks a lot!!
Bro I did that so easily that also Made me feel go so thank you
“The light in me recognises the light in you.”
That one sentence made me feel far less lonely. Thank you, Adrienne
Dear Erin, I did this practice just before a swimming practice it gave my swimming a great feeling of smoothness and relaxation. Thank you.
There are a ton of reasons why I love Fitness Blender. One of them is they don’t tell you to like and subscribe. Nothing kills videos faster for me than hearing those words. Thanks guys!!!
Does it work if you only watch it while lying on your bed and throwing your hands and legs here and there while watching?
Omg this helps so much. Since quarantine ive been feeling like a blob and my legs and arms feel weak. This really ia helping to stretch them and slowly loosen and strength my body. I do this and some cardio and few weights and makes such a difference. Thank you.
This is literally the most calming workout I have ever done. I felt sorry and happy when it ended tysm
Wow! To think I nearly skipped this one because I’m not a swimmer!! Perfect for office workers with tight hips from sitting and tight shoulders from hunched over a desk (ie me!!!). I think this might be a lovely evening class as well…perfect wind down before bed. Thank you, Erin.
Great work. Спасибо. Евгений, ты знаешь GaryVee? У него канал на Ютубе.
omg so ive never done yoga before and i just tried today and its really rrelaxing
This seemly simple stretch routine goes very deep when executed with mindfulness <3 Fantastic
Hi Erin, love your classes! Can I request you to post a class entailing yoga that is of faster pace and flowy, as in that the next posture flows into the one prior? Thank you
The first time I did this I really struggled with it, but now doing it second time I really feel relaxed, maybe it was a lot of new things at once but now I appreciate the bit of a challenge
Wow, this is so valuable! Thank you! How can I repay you? You’re smile shows the wealth of health.
Hi Adriene, thanks for being there, every day is new exercises with you, showing love from South Africa.
I miss swimming something awful hopefully soon but I will do these exercises for when my old self can return and I intend to do that.
‘
This is awesome! I have a similar video if you want to change it up some days! Namaste everyone
Erin, I’ve deeply enjoyed doing this wonderful yoga class! I feel myself great after doing it! See you on the mat, as always ♀️ Namaste
Erin you are my fav yoga person… but this should have been called sleepy time yoga.. could have done this in pj’s and gone straight to bed… please more “fun Erin”… fit.. playground.. peak pose.. vigorous vinyasa… anything to get the sweat going…:D T.Y.
Thank you for this! I have a swim meet tomorrow, and am going to execute these tips!
I’m glad to come across your video. Can a nine year old start doing this stretching? Is it too late to develop this kind of flexibility.?
One for squash players? All professional players practice yoga
Hi Erin. Thank you for posting this yoga class specifically for swimmers. I have been practicing with you for a year now, and I have incorporated what I’ve learned to my own swim and stretch routines. Thank you for all that you do!
Just wanted to say your workout videos are amazing! started using them in 7th grade now 8th and don’t plan to ever stop!
I am very thankful for your videos. I find the calm and open atmosphere to be just… wonderful! Like immersing myself into healing waters!
Followed this session after a four hour hike!
Do you have any recommended programs for those of us carrying a few extra folds and pounds? Perhaps a program with progressively more challenging yoga practices over a period of weeks?
I really enjoyed this class! As a swimmer who had not been able to swim for the last two month this felt really good:)
Maybe don’t put background music when you already have the sound of the water in the background next time? Great video anyways
I’m a big guy 260 lbs muscular and my shoulders get so pumped its unbearable to not stop. any ideas please would appreciate it
Thanks I been swimming for years, I used always stretch before I swim,
Recently I was thinking and realizing, istopped I got a unimask so I can breath through my nose,
The past hurt my back months ago, but, now my back hurts to swim and daily,any thoughts to help myself,other then you fabulous stretches.
This was lovely, I had a great time learning my body’s limits and waking up today <3 it was very relaxing and helped me feel better about today.
Thank you so so much, I don’t swim, but I had unbearable pain, no one managed to diagnose. I finally diagnosed my self by looking on the net. The next step was finding the cure. I have been suffering from horrible pain for the last 8 months. I found you on youtube, as soon as I started doing the stretches, I found instant relief. ^ months of physical therapy and 4 sessions of chiro. so far but you did the trick.
I didn’t expect this to be as relaxing as it was, I was yawning through the first half of this.
I have Championships tomorrow and this really helped thank you so much I am subscribed
thank you im practicing these stretches for our local game against other cities
lovelymostly lying on the mat,. flexibility legs, hips, back
Every time you roll your head past the mic it reminds more of a motorbike flying past
Bless your heart Kassandra. This practice is timely and needed as I have returned to blue waters after many years away. I’m easing myself into swimming a mile each time and having swum more yesterday than I can remember in an age my body aches (nicely so) for the boons of yoga. I have been faithfully following your Yin Yoga classes on Udemy for six months now and they truly do ‘heal and restore.’
You are a rare gift to the yoga community my dear. My heartfelt thanks for the lush serenity you have brought into my life.
Namaste.
you guys are awesome! Thank you so much for these workouts! I’m studying right now for my NASM CPT and your workouts are seriously great resources, great examples of the basics, which are so necessary! Proper form, posture and execution of exercises! I am really learning a lot from you guys. I look forward to going through all your exercises and workout routines and thank you again for doing this! You can seriously impact a person’s life tremendously so positively!:) Great work and keep it up!
-Erin
Amazing! I feel soooo good after this class. Thank you so much for sharing
Great tips. These are difficult to find in most public media. The pinpoints explained can improve your timing even without an increas in your fitness.
Simple but great points. I was doing the streamline strech only. Now I am going to add the other 3. One small suggestion; If you could record the videos under non-windy and waterfall conditions which will make your videos with better sound. Regards.
This was just perfect. Wanted a quick body stretch and just happened to find you. Thank you
Thank you! You deserve thousands of new subscribers! Keep it up!
How is this video 6 years old? Such a good stretch, thank you Kelli!
Your video is awsome! I’m rather tall and have a tight back most of the time, so I appreciate the emphasis towards the lower back stretches!
how did he know about covid-19? (can someone answer me cause im confused like did he edit?) also i really wanna go back to swimming and doing 500m sprints
Thank you for this video. Feels awesome just to feel how your muscles tendons and circulation open up.✌️
Can someone please give me the names of all these stretching excersizes so that I can just list it down somewhere and I don’t have to see this video again and again while doing it.
Great video, I’m 60 years old, can you choose the 3 best exercises?
Oh my gosh I’ve wanted this for SO long, I cannot wait to try it! I’ll be sure to let you know how it goes Erin! Thank you x
Amazing video, helps me in my flexibility, the age doesn’t matter I’m 30. Please post the 2nd part. Thanks.
i did a HIIT workout and this yoga workout. I feel like i didn’t go as well as i wanted because i was too out of breath give it my 100% but i keep telling myself that i’ll get better and stronger and more flexible with time just don’t give up. This is just day one of my journey.
I practice regularly in a local studio, but when I can’t make it in for my daily practice Erin is my go to. I was a little intimidated by the title. I am a fun loving lap swimmer. This was perfect. I was feeling so tight in my lower back from my workout and this did the trick. Thanks Erin.
this is very helping. I got anxiety disorder and was making me crazy. I just try this and feel amazing for a whole day Namaste
Beautiful!
I have a mediation, stress relief video as well for you to enjoy

excellent class erin! I am not a regular swimmer but do crossfit/fitness 3 times a week and I do your classes twice a week and each time they work like a miracle to open up and lengthen my stiff classes from all that weighttraining. and after this class, I feel like a I have a brand new back and spine. thank you so much!
Dude, Michael Phelps have double jointed shoulders. He is born with it. There is no way, a normal person can stretch till you have MP shoulder flexibility. Not even you.

Nice relaxing stretching routine for my recovery day! It targeted all my sore muscles:)
Thank you Kell and Daniel for the this fantastic yoga, flexibility and stretching routine. I do this one often since it is very effective at reducing the tightness in lower body especially glutes, hips, and hamstrings which in turn helps my lower back pain. What more could I ask for in a 15 minute routine. Love it!
Before I found your channel I couldn’t even get into a crisscross applesauce position lol. Your videos have been helping me become better mentally and physically

Thank you I just subscribe to lo channel I loved It!!! My back fells better already!!:)
my poor english skill can not correct describe how much doo you help me with that film, thanks a lot!!!
Lately i add this stretches in every workout it really improved my flexibility.I’ve been here since almost 2 years,i’m really glad,i enjoyed every workout of yours.Thanks a lot.
Great video! But what is up with the awful dreadful generic YouTube music??!
this was extremely well made and great! it didn’t even feel like 16 minutes!
I wish I could press (Like) every time I do this workout. It’s my all time favorite for tight muscles and I feel great when I finish it. Thanks a lot, Kelli ❤
i was doing the crow pose yesterday so i was very sore for today..this helped alot
I’ve been doing this every morning for the last 2 or 3 weeks and it has done so much to improve my mobility, especially notice the difference in my hips. Thank you so much!:)
I really appreciated this flow! You are an excellent teacher. Thank you:)
Nice routine, thanks. As a newcomer my only criticism is that I have to keep looking at the screen to see when you swap between poses or sides and this kind of disrupts the pose. Not when you show the new moves, I have to look then to see what they are, but when you just repeat them I don’t want to get too far behind or ahead, so it would be good to hear “other side” or “cat… dog…” or whatever, so I don’t keep having to move to look at the screen.
WAIT A MINUTE THIS WAS MADE IN 2019 HOW JUST HOW HE JUST PREDICTED THE FUTURE
How often should I do this workout to improve my flexibilty?
Really good stretches. I have a stiff body. I could use this
Great video and program Fitness Blender. Would love it if Kelli did a studio voiceover for one of her videos. Nice seeing a strong female presence leading a workout routine and she conducts her pieces very professionally. Thank you!
Tolle Videos. Ich fange gerade erst mit You Tube an und sehe schon, es liegt noch reichlich Arbeit vor mir!! Euer Profil ist es hammer!!:-)
This was perfect. It was just like the one stretching yoga routine you used to have up here and took down a month ago. That really threw me off my weekly routine. I’m ecstatic that this routine is similar to that one, perfect for my recovery days.
rebound stretching is not recommended in absolute. It can cause serious injuries.

hey Daniel and Kelly wanted to ask your advice about exercising twice a day. So i exercise 6 times per week in the morning around 10-11 am for 30 mins doing t25. then at night i end the day with one of your many great workouts for roughly another 28-40 mins. is it healthy? am i hindering my weigh loss goals. PS i am 208 pounds i don’t do a lot of moving around during the day because of my job. at the moment i am just worried about over training. i also know not to target same group in a day. any advice i would love to see a video on over training because i know a lot of people are thinking about it. Reason why i doing 2 workouts a day is that i think 30 mins burns roughly 400 calories for me and i just think you need to burn more any advice thanks in advance. long time supporter of videos. always incorporate your workout in whatever workout program i do even when doing t25.
I often find that yoga videos aimed at swimmers are too hard on my altready overworked shoulders, but not this time! This was a lovely practice. Thank you and namaste.
Giving my feet a break from hiit stuff, so I did this on my lunch break today. Loved it! Thanks!
madam I am only 13 and I can’t do all of these but still I did some of them and I felt very good thanks
Why do we need to hear you breathing every bloody time.
Who else didnt understand half of what she said
thank you! I loved the yoga session! definitely subscribed! Who knew yoga was this fun! periodt.
Great workout it’s much needed after the 5 day challenge bc my back was so stiff so thanks for this!!! it would b cool if you made a little more advanced yoga video with more advanced poses.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pZO7-RK2cE&feature=youtu.be. Also a good one for strength and flex. 6 weeks now-I finished home projects, now my time: this and bible study.
Thank you so much. Every time I follow one of your videos I am so happy for the rest of the day.
I went swimming today for the first time in 5 month’s! And it felt awesome!! Your deep belly breathing technique I learned from your yoga session really really helped me a lot with my swimming today!☺️❤️♀️
I am definitely going to continue with yoga while still swimming this summer and my dryland training!☺️
By the way, thank you so much for helping me!!☺️❤️
By the way, this was a wonderful yoga session after swimming! This really really stretched out everything!!
Thank you so much!☺️❤️♂️
Brilliant Evgeny, many thanks my flexibility improved from the fly series exercise. This is very useful for swimmers any age who wish to improve.
Great sequence lots fir me to work on. I wish I could go for a lake or sea swim now. Thank you
Beautiful routine I always go back to this either before or after a yoga flow, adding some movements in between. Kudos
This had a profound effect on me. I am always so stressed, so worried about being accountable and on top of everything. It was very relieving to be able to leave that behind, and just focus on how I physically and mentally feel in the right here, right now. Thank you, I love your videos.
Absolutely fantastic. I really enjoyed it. I felt peaceful, calm and motivated to have a productive day. And realigned. Huge gratitude to you x
i do this sequence almost daily. Thank you for the great content!
Still loving this class! Especially now when all swimming pools are closed. I would love to have a sequel! Namaste
Excellent, yoga for my back!.stretching super! Very well, thank you!
This was amazing it didn’t even feel like 16 minutes it was surreal
Ďakujem, Luki, ešte dnes večer pred zajtrajším plaveckým triatlonovým tréningom sa všetko naučím!
Not a swimmer, but I loved this so much! Thank you for this channel. It’s such a gift!
I’m a competitive swimmer so this practice was very beneficial for me! Thank you so much!
Great practice Erin. Definitely a practice for everyone. All stretched out and ready for my day xx
Would me doing yoga in the morning before school help with stress or make me feel more awake?
I used to swim a lot as a child for synchronized swimming and quite a bit as a teen for workouts. Recently started swimming again and this session really helped me incorporate a good stretch and core workout in between swim days. (I will also recommend this to my surfer friends!) Thank you!
Thank you Kassandra, great session. I’ll do it again next week. Tony
I’ve been working out with you guys for two years, but this is the first time that i have done yoga. I feel sore, but good. Will definitely be trying this and others again.
Great workout. I’m a beginner and was able to follow along easily.
I recently discovered your channel and the only thing I have to say is: Thank you for making yoga available for everyone. I just came out from a back injury and I was advised to build up strength and endurance from my shoulders to the lower back. It’s been almost a month since I started with your beginners’ classes and then followed with this session. The results are showing and my back is much better. Thank you!
The side body stretch before the lunging pose crushes my balls every time..
4 months of procrastinating later… first yoga session achieved!
but this cant be 16 minutes i swear this was max 3 minutes!! im shook
Thank you for the great video!
I’m looking for a yoga video for triathletes but could not find one on youtube..
Could you expand your series with a triathlon video?
At 31 weeks weeks pregnant, I’m super antsy for Memorial Day weekend & open pools for lap swimming! Until then, I’ll dream of swimming, while doing this practice:)
My “come to” every morning.. Then I pick two of my favorites, and there’s many! Thank you Adriene
I’ve been doing yoga for 3 years now and since i met Five parks my yoga routine has totally changed. She is the one who paved the way for yoga being my life style. I feel like she is an older sister who guides and inspires me with her wishes at the end of the videos. I totally respect what she is doing because among all those yoga teachers i think she is the most professional and sincere one. I love doing yoga everyday with her and feel improved every time.
Big fan of yours.
I’m expanding on my yoga for athletes series with a 30 minute practice just for swimmers:) Enjoy and please remember to subscribe! xx
