    These standing stretches are great even for younger people imo. I try to do a quick 10-minute yoga practice every morning before work but if I'm running late I'll do one of these instead. I often do these during my work day too as a quick break time activity, it is so versatile bc you don't need to roll out a mat etc.

    Hi Meg. I have been using your 5 minute stretch for senior routine and have found it helpful. I'm 68 and active but still have some stiffness in the mornings and I have found that your routine helps. I'm trying this one now for a bit to change it up. I also like your workout in the Tropics. Thank you.

    This is lovely. Like you. I think the addition of the countdown timer is really helpful and hope you will use it in some of your upcoming videos where it's most appropriate. I wonder whether, with a no-talk video, you might ask participants before the stretching begins to watch the first time you do each exercise and then join in. Only when I stopped to watch the forward fold exercise, for example, did I realize it was a hinge movement rather than a stretch right down to the toes. Another example was the hamstring stretch. I realized after watching that when you came up you pulled your elbows back. Ha ha, you asked for feedback. Wonderful as always. Trudy
