Shelley Nicole, thank you so much for this series. It truly is gentle yet challenging for those of us over 65. Your voice is a soothing guide.

I’m 65 and never felt so in tune with my body since doing Shelley’s yoga. My balance has improved so much. I’m more flexible. Recently, I stumbled on an uneven path and righted my balance and didn’t fall. I know it’s because of these classes. ❤

I love Shelley's voice, it is so soothing. This is my go-to set of yoga poses when I haven't been able to do anything for awhile. God bless you, Shelley ❤

Thank you so much Shelley. I started to follow this programme during lockdown and worried it might be a bit late for me (I’m 70) but it’s great. I’m not the fittest person but I no longer wake with stiffness in my back and aches and pains. I’m sure it’s due to the gentle exercises and stretching. So glad I started even at my advanced age !

I just love your videos. I love the sound of your voice and the instructions are so easy, you say just the right amount of words and the poses are just what I love. The length is perfect. Gone are the days when I want to go to a class of 90 mins. Instead, I can do these videos often as it is only 30 mins. of a complete life-sustaining routine. Beautiful teaching thank you.

I LOVE Shelley. Shelley 's classes have given me the ones I've been looking for. With my gym closed due to covid, Shelley has been my instructor.

Love your videos. You need to make volume 3. I love the fact that you narrated it separately. It's less distracting than narrating as you are doing the practice.

So glad I found your gentle yoga. Helps to relax the pain in my body and my mind.

I discovered yoga in 1965 with the publishing of Jess Stern's "Yoga, Youth and Reincarnation." Loved it. Through the years I stopped doing it. At 67 I found myself stiffening, experiencing pain in my hips and shoulders and loosing my sense of balance. Your gentle yoga classes guided by your lovely voice have returned me to a mental and physical condition that I thought I would never experience again at my age. Thank you, Shelley Susan LaRosa

I can't get enough of this. Looked everywhere to little avail for videos going slow and easy, so I can learn and concentrate without having to worry about being "left behind" by the teacher. And suddenly, there you were! Found you! The Mat Project is extra special and I practice with your videos - and concentrate - every night. Thank you for understanding our needs. :)

It's a real nice feeling, pratising every morning the Mat Project Vol. 2, knowing that, we are several hundreds all over the World to come to the class ! :-) ... Such a wide room, we would need to gather !

I am 59 yrs young and I started with a chair yoga class offered in my community. I am so glad to have found your Mat Project yoga for seniors. I am currently doing vol.1 and just included vol,2. Yoga is helping me improve my flexibility, Increase my muscle strength which helps with the aches and pains of maturity. Looking forward to more yoga videos from you and yes the idea of a DVD is great.

FINALLY an adult-friendly instructor!!! I love Shelley's voice, the soft music and the total body workout!!! Will look for you often!

Yes, love your voice and your approach and I love how you walk me through my breathing. I'm a breast cancer survivor and I'm getting back into yoga. You're a wonderful instructor offering gentle and supportive guidance. You definitely need to make a DVD!

Thank you Shelly for such a restorative yoga session. I so appreciate your approach during this Corona Isolation period. Thank you.

I just discovered yoga at 61. I loved the first video, this one I have trouble with because the music is louder than your voice. I'd love to see you remake it with better sound. In order to hear the instructions, I have to turn it up so loud the background music is distracting. But I do love your classes. You have such a smooth inspiring voice. I'm going to end up skipping this one and move on to number 3. Hoping after a year I can master it !

Hi Shelley, I am so glad you now have a Volume II. Thank you much and many Blessings!

Please do more gentle yoga videos, they are wonderful!

so pleased to receive your yoga lessons, the instructions are beautifully guided along with heavenly background music and nature scenery. I'm encouraged to return to yoga beginners practice listening to you. Namaste, truly grateful for this thank you

For the first time, I can DO yoga. I do other physical exercise regularly, and never thought I was flexible for yoga. I was amazed that I could complete this, your narration added instead of talking while yoga-ing, it just can't get any better!

Shelly, both 1 & 2 have helped me invite YOGA back into my life. They are gentle and easy to follow. THANKS so much. I come to my outside office daily to work as an online instructor and freelance writer. At 3pm, I shut down and go to the mat!

I found you when I started chemotherapy 3 1/2 years ago and you got me through it. You are my favorite yoga teacher and I still go back to your sessions - even now at 78 years and cancer free. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

You are amazing! I love how you walk us through step by step without pausing or interrupting the flow of movements. I literally started yoga four days ago with your help from day 1. And I am in love. Now I need to find a mat because I can see myself in this for the long haul. Xoxo

Thank you so much Shelley for these wonderful gentle yoga videos. I discovered them this year and am finding them very helpful. You have a lovely voice and beautiful flow as you guide us through the poses.

Finally! I have found what I've been looking for. I am battling an autoimmune disease and have been struggling to find an exercise routine that I can handle without getting nauseous. To be honest it hurts my pride a bit as I used to be extremely fit and flexible. But baby steps and perseverance should help me regain my strength. Thank you so much for these videos.

So glad I found you. You have a lovely soothing voice and you beautifully and simply direct us without distracting chitchat so we can stay immersed in the experience. The practice really flows. Thank you.

Shelley, I lLOVE your classes, your voice is calm and reassuring. Thank you!

Thank you for adding another yoga video, Shelley. Really love them and you!!

Yay! Another yoga video by Shelley. Thanks!

thank you for sharing this... I have MS and alot of balance issues ..... I feel the need to get back to yoga but have to go very slow and gentle .... video 1 & 2 are about all I can manage now but it feels soooo good .. Namaste

I'm hoping there will be a Gentle volume 4. I love alternating the 3 different classes. Thank you for giving me a strong healthy body at 69 years old.

Absolutely lovely yoga! Calm and sensitive, perfect for older people, like me! 🥰 Thank you 🌺

Thank you, lovely practice, and nicely paced. I am returning back to yoga after recovering from an injury, and this was perfect. Namaste.

I love Shelly's classes,.all three !!!,...i do one each day...feels great ,.Thanks so much!!

These classes are exactly what I’ve been looking for. They’re just what I need for where my practice is at this season of my life. In this particular video, I found the music overpowered your voice and I had a hard time hearing your instruction, although I really like the style of a separate narration. Thank you.

Thank you, my first attempt at yoga! Very gentle and doable for someone who is very stiff. Will definitely be back for more.

I really enjoy the Mat Project Yoga instructor, Shelly. There are so many others here that feel the same way. I really hope to see more of your videos as they really help me in my new journey to yoga.

Love your class...I am 64 and have had 2 hip replacements and it is perfect ...thankyou

I LOVE the first vol. for beginners and seniors and I love the concept of Vol. 2. However I thought it was too fast. I am older and don't do strenuous yoga with any regularity. But I do gentle yoga and our instructor gives us more time with the breathing and stretching of each pose.

Always wonderful to come back to this. Thank you.

Thank you, this class is fantastic. I love how you filmed it outdoors, and the birds make a terrific addition.

Yea! Great to see another class Shelley!

Thank you. After many years I can go back to yoga with you.

I love your Yoga videos. I hope you will continue making more. They are so well done and perfect for my needs. Your alternate poses are also very helpful. Thank you Sandy Danner

Love this. I practiced fairly seriously about five years ago, but have been fighting chronic illnesses for awhile. This video and the first one are helping me find my body again and accept it for what it can do.

Thank you Nicole, you’re what I need just now

As a senior, I truly enjoyed this video. The green background was very pleasant. My only suggestion is to turn down the sound some, so that I can hear the words being spoken. Thank you!

This was wonderful. Thank you. The outdoor setting and the music add so much to the experience.

You do a great job Shelley. Thank you!💛

This is my favorite yoga lady. I just love this gal and her voice. I would totally buy a dvd of her lessons. Would love a full series!

Im so glad you have a new one!!!!! Yay!!!

this is great! love your vdeos Shelley Nicole makes it easy to follow. i use vol. 1, 2, and 3 switching day to day.

My favorite yoga video!! Can't get enough. Exactly what I've been looking for. Your voice is soothing. Thank you very much. Hope there's more videos to come. 💖

Love all your videos! Perfect stretches at a perfect pace.

Love this series! Great guidance and progression of skills!! I hae been looking at yoga sites and this is the best for me.

The whole family now doing your routine. Our two older teens enjoying it with us. Feeling stronger and more balanced with each session. I would love to have a safe but serious neck routine If you are short on ideas. Thanks for your videos!

Your first class was great--just what I was looking for. I'm at a writer's retreat spending too much time on my tush and starting to get the regular aches and pains. So good to be able to go on-line and find you, similar to the gentle class I take in LA. Thank you SO much!

I never get tired of this! You are the best! Love the music!!

THANK YOU, SHELLY .YOUR YOGA PRACTICE IS A LOVELY COMBINATION OF POSES. I ENJOY IT MANY MORNINGS.

Love it. I can follow you really well, I appreciate you sharing with us. Just your voice itself is relaxing.

After 2 years of practice of the first one, I was able to complete this one

Love this practice ! Need more with YOU

Hi Shelly. So happy you are back!!! Susan

This is one of the best yoga videos I have ever seen online. You and I teach very similarly. I’ m a 74 year old Black yoga teacher so it is so refreshing to see you teaching. I am also impressed with the Mat Project. I would certainly be volunteering if I lived in your area.

This is so good for me. My mind wanders sometimes but I am able to follow you. Thank you.

Great classes. I have taken 1,2 and 3. You do a fantastic job of guiding.

I recently found your videos and I'm in love. I thoroughly enjoy practicing with you and hope that you put out more!

Did anyone notice the bunny on the ground behind her in the opening few minutes?? Loved that! Added a little something extra to the serene quality of the video. Like so many others I found this to be the perfect yoga sequence for beginners and older folks or returning students. I am 53 years young and have been doing yoga on and off since my late teens. I started watching " Lilias yoga and you " on public television in the 1970's when it wasn't cool to do yoga. As someone who is trying to come back to yoga once again this was perfect! Like others that have posted here, I too found the sound quality a little poor. However once you follow the routine a few times you get the routine down. Also loved volume 1. Haven't watched vol. 3 yet, but I expect great things! excellent work keep it up! Namaste🍃

Thank you so much Shelley ! I just discovered these wunderfull videos. You encourag me to go on learning to practice Yoga although I'm a aged Person. The best I can do in pandemic times. You are great !

I'd done something to a ligament so this practice is great. Love Shelley's voice. I'd just suggest holding poses more time. Many thanks for this practice!

You are a beautiful teacher Thanks and blessings

Thank you , you have given me the strength to start yoga🥰

Thank you so much for these wonderful videos, it was exactly what I was looking for in a yoga routine...........love it!

Wonderful flowing practice. Thank you!

Thank you Shelley, I love Volume II and III in your zen voice!!

Excellent all around, gentle stretching and Shiva sinah.

You need to seriously make a DVD!!! Love ur practice! I would love to have thus on DVD! .

Thank you! Been looking forward to more of your videos.

We need a dvd!!! (Thank you so much for doing this)! While I love the work outs as they are, I would also love to be able to have a 45 min workout....

nice and relaxing.and the best thing is that unlike most videos it is actually doable

Thank you so much for a great teaching video. I love Vol. 1 as well

i loved this class so much, thank you

I just discovered your videos I love them thank you for posting them

loved these 3 volumes

I just found your videos and I think you are awesome! I just enjoy them so much.

So HAPPY you are back! Namaste!

Just beginning yoga

Such a lovely practice!

I have done your volume 1 video. Will definitely do this. It is sad to see you haven't done anymore videos. Lot of videos, even though it says for beginners it definitely is not. I can finally do a yoga video without a lot of difficulty. Wish you would do more.

Really enjoyed your video. Instructions were perfect. I felt great at the end of the workout! Thank you 😊

This was perfect! Thank you.

Another great class. Thank you

I love your videos, they are so relaxing, please keep it up! Stay Blessed

Thanks so much for this! Love it.

I have been searching for a beginner yoga flow and most of the teachers just talk too much. You do it absolutely right! Thank you so much. I hope you make more!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Wonderful.Thank you .🙏🏻

I loved Volume 1...but, doing Vol 2 is difficult because the voice track is so hard to hear over the awful spooky ambient noise. I wish it just had Shelley Nicole's lovely warm soothing voice and none of the "spiritual massage" muzak.

Love this thank you !
