  • Dang, Jenny, this presentation is as comforting as if June Cleaver herself was the host! Very well done 👏 video , even more important, useful indeed! Bravo!

    I do most of these stretches when I am on my exercise bike each day. They take 14 minutes out of the hour that I am paddling. I'm 90 years old.
  • This is doable... I suffer with chronic pain, due to arthritis. Everyday is a challenge, but gotta keep moving!!!
  • @user-zl4xs9wm9c
    I have started to do this while my coffee cools. Great start to my day
  • Breathing really helped me. Concentrating on improving daily.

    I began doing these several weeks ago and find them easy and quick to help get my day started; or, as a beginning to more strenuous cardio programs...thank you Silver Sneakers!
  • I have a lot of shoulder pain and I knew exercise would help but I just didn’t do it. Just sat with the heating pad. I ran across your video this morning and did the exercises with you and WOW! My shoulder doesn’t hurt! I can’t believe it! I will be back. Thank you!
  • This is right for me in so many ways!! Absolutely love the teacher!! I am a fan and a student!!!!!
  • @pamaylmer8190
    I love how you say right and left and we can mirror.😊. I get confused when some instructors don't mirror their commands, but do the opposite.
  • @sojourner842

  • @rosebarnes4307

    I like to see seniors in good shape giving wellness classes on work outs & stretches. Then I know it's not a do now, repent at leisure!? In our youth much can be done, & over-done, that one then pays for in their senior years. Exercise is important, but we must be stable and able to exercise through out our lives. Thank you for the work out!! I'm in2 wellness BIG time, and always ready for a sensible work out or stretch. Namaste & Ushta-te!!
  • I did these last night when I couldn't sleep! It helped me relax. Thank you, I'll have to try it again tonight!
