Hi Kyra! I do hope to make downloading possible by offering an iOS app - however it's quite expensive to have one built. I'm dreaming that this channel will grow enough to justify the cost, and soon! šŸ’™

Hi Deb! I appreciate your comment about the live class - how even though you viewed it as a recording, you found it have a different quality of connection than the non-live recordings. These are the kinds of questions I'm exploring with this new platform. šŸ’œ

Hi Laura! Glad you enjoyed this live class. Sounds like a really serious knee injury you're recovering from. I know you're normally a very active person so I'm sure it must be challenging. Thanks for posting your question here. I'm thinking of how to best approach your outer hips and hip flexors. First, for outer hips: the four posture variations that I cover in this class are basically we've you've got to work with, plus propping and adjusting those in creative ways. I know you are an experienced practitioner, and it sounds like you may already be going as you should while listening to your body, not over-doing it, and moving intelligently. For injured joints, stretching is important, but strengthening is equally important - not just for the muscles but to stimulate the healing process in the bones and fascia. (And of course it's very important to work with the guidance of a doctor or PT who has access to your medical images and records, unlike me). For the hip flexors and sartorius, check out the new class I've posted called Yin Yoga for Inflexible Hips, particularly the last posture – modified half saddle – which I think might be a doable version for you to try. Knees and hips go hand-in-hand so in general that yin class for inflexible hips you'll see many of the same modifications that I'd make for a student with limited/injured knees. My thoughts are with you has you continue to heal and recover. šŸ’œšŸ™šŸ’™

Yes this one can be repeated as many times as needed to strengthen the thighs. Great to hear that you're slowly absorbing the yang practices into your routine! šŸ’œ
