I'm back... again after chemo and radiation and recovery. Your workouts are the best at getting me moving, encouraging me and getting my body strength again. Thank you, Rachel

This was a treat! I love stretching, sit a lot, so I added this to today’s 20min standing session on the October week 2 playlist for 30 minutes of delightful movement!💪🏻🤗 thanks for all you do!

Not morning here but I wanted to squeeze in a quick workout on New Year's Eve to prepare to get 2023 off on the right foot (so to speak)! This was perfect. Very grateful to you, Rachel, for all you do. Sending love to you and your family.

have been following your sessions for 2 years as I gradually recover from several health setbacks. WOW you have had sessions for every level of ability and stamina. The ability to follow arm stretches has been gradual and enhance recovery. Balance is my next target and trust you have a sequence of sessions to assist me in reaching my goal. You integrate each muscle group at a pace that is restorative. Many thanks and kudos to you Rachel.
