My best stretch ever was when I touched the ground with my middle finger. At 29 years old I could touch the ground with the palm of my hand after three weeks stretching with this video. I'm amazed with myself hahaha. Thank you very much.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Great work!!

[@phuongphan-hu1hx]

Hi Cathy, Where is your class located?

[@vicky248123]

It's not an exageration to say that this is changing my life. I deal with a lot of neck and back pain along my spine. I find foward folds to be difficult but nourishing. Not only does your practice allow me to focus on length of my body but now I'm doing it correctly!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Wow thank you so much for this comment and I’m delighted to hear it’s helping you🙌🏽🫶🏽

[@mavisisbatcave]

As someone who is not flexible at all this video has helped me so much! I could barely bend over before finding this video and after 1 practice i see a significant difference! After a few weeks im sure ill be able to acheive my forward fold with this video.. Thank you so much

[@WoodRabbit75]

I can touch my toes. I have done this video every day for a month straight and what a difference. Well done.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Wow I’m so happy to hear that 🙌🏽

[@roanholley-hime3275]

wow... you really are great at teaching this... everything a person needs to know to perform any aspect of each move; you tell them what to look for and aim for... just fantastic

[@user-cu5hv1rf9n]

i've been coming back to this class regularly, but once my bends are easier, i'll then explore a few more of your videos!

[@kairasingh8084]

You are the best yoga teacher on youtube!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Oh wow!! That means so much thank you!!

[@Nomsa81]

Enjoying the practice 🙏🏽

[@dir3w0lf]

Holy hamstring stretch! Great video, you’re a great instructor.

[@Ellebelle615]

Great video!! Thank you!! 🙏

[@brendao649]

Love this

[@kajalmangukia]

Thank you so much 🙏 God bless you 🙏

[@rushrushrush]

That posterior/anterior tilt tip at 5:30 is a game changer. Such a useful thing I never thought about and it's crazy how much closer your chest gets to your knees compared to when I just bend over and am still in posterior tilt. Thanks so much for the video/tips. Subscribed and going to check out the rest of your videos.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thank you for the feedback! It's great to hear what was the most useful part!

[@bradparmar4728]

Yes agree , Good Tip n pose. But at 6:58( rocking Torso in that bent position is Not good for the Back!- injury prone; Unless ur cores n Back are slready strong!)

[@janegarnham]

echo whay you say subscribeing too

[@deepakhandique9187]

Thank you So much 🙏😊

[@apcv1025]

This is the BEST video I’ve watch for forward folding! Thank you so much for sharing! I’ll keep doing it everyday!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thank you so much! I'm glad it's useful!

[@MsLeenabeena]

I'm late to the party but I definitely notice the difference in the way I walk and I was able to sit and fold my legs closer to my inner thigh. That you cathy

[@user-fz1rd6wl5e]

Thanks, very useful for an Iyengar yoga practioner

[@aminasagadatova8147]

This was great, thank you so much! One question that I have for years in my mind: how to engage quadriceps muscles? How would you explain it in a wonderful way of yours? Thanks!

[@rayanderson3894]

Thanks Cathy, a significant improvement with just a few visits to the video, it is indeed one of the most informative which I have seen! Many thanks!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Wow glad to hear you're feeling results! Thanks for practicing!

[@lizavietamalashevich699]

Thank you very much, Cathy))

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thanks for watching!

[@kenwhite4091]

Really enjoyed this. I have really tight hamstrings and hips so this felt good.

[@John-D.]

THANK YOU 🙏☯️ THIS helps with AIKIDO

[@patrickgeorges6042]

Very specific and useful pointers. I really like that class and I’ll stick to it!

[@patrickgeorges6042]

I can apply it to rockvlimbing

[@terryflanagan7249]

Wonderful! This is what I need. I do silver sneakers and our current instructor does some of these moves. I’ve been having hip issues and the doctors are anxious to cut, but I think I just need to stretch. I’ve tried shots and got some relief but I’m getting better results with yoga. Signed; reformed skeptic.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

I’m glad this is helpful! I’m posting a similar class coming soon!

🎄Merry Christmas Cathy !!! 🎄

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

You too!

[@fake6294]

I followed your instructions as good as I could. My knees had to be bend, but afterwards my legs felt different in a relaxed way. I wonder how it will feel after some more repetitions. 😊

[@AyurvedaLifeSchool]

Great practice. Creative and covered all the strength and stretch I needed today.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@patrickdonkor6903]

Thank you so much 🙏🏾✌🏿♥️

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thank you for watching!

[@user-su6zt2of2p]

Never felt so comfortable and uncomfortable at the same time.💞 Thanks a lot. I just got my full forward fold with this tutorial

[@YogaSkip]

Great Flow!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thanks so much!

[@thelmasbar]

This dovetails with my Bikram practice.❤

[@bigbattenberg]

Researching a lot these past few weeks because of lumbago. Last time was 3 years ago and again this time it came completely out of the blue. I'm 50, male, very fit and thin. I have found out that I am very limited in tilting the pelvis forward, looks to be a main area for general attention from now on. Would you happen to have any tips on lumbago? Thanks. Great channel btw, keep up the good work. I like how you keep talking to relaxed in any position.

[@gayatris4169]

Merry Christmas Cathy... Great flow... my hamstrings thanking u 😊

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Thank you! Merry Christmas to you too! I plan to upload a holiday flow to my channel this holiday so stay tuned!

[@johntan2501]

I have hamstring for a week now. This video and tip suggestions are very difficult because I’m not flexible. If you’re flexible excellent suggestions.

[@tomsooty8328]

She showed you beginner version with a belt.

[@prathanapardesi3243]

Is this for all ages? I am 55 years old and have done only basic yoga. I am fascinated by this. But I think I have missed the bus. Can I try these or is it a bad idea. Kindly guide me please.

[@comaofbowls84]

I need to improve hamstring/lower back flexibility but it’s difficult because of a curvature I have in my upper spine, so forward folding can reinforce my bad posture. What are some work arounds for this?

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

I have 2 videos on this channel that are deep shoulder stretches for backbends that have a lot of stretches that will help you! Supported fish pose is one of them!

[@rashmirao4647]

Can I do this when I am still trying to heal my diastasis recti ? I have one finger gap right now .

[@AdvkainatKamboh-wt3sc]

[@dorajoyner5550]

I've struggled for a while with low back pain on my right side. After therapy not working I've gravitated towards yoga. Do you have or can add some workouts focused on that. Thanks

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

I'm sorry to hear that. I made a practice along called yoga for backspin that is perfect for you!

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

I just posted another yoga for low back pain video. Hope you're feeling better!

[@DacoRoo]

I just got through doing physical therapy for pain I had in my right lower back for over a year. If you still have it, try looking up exercises for lower back. Pelvic tilt, bridge pose, swimmer (superman), dead bug, bird dog are all moves I did in pt. Make sure to engage your abs and keep your pelvis in a neutral position for all of them.

[@user-ee3xv8wn9h]

Does the stretch last over time without exercising too often?

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

Flexibility does take consistency!

[@silverseven7105]

05:33 👋👋🌹💋💋💋 🎄Merry Christmas Cathy !!! 🎄

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

You too!!

[@RLXSOUNDS101]

Yoga is not just about flexibility; it's also about focus and relaxation. I feel so much better after each session. Do you have a similar experience?

[@staylorbug3278]

Hi there, a couple of yrs ago I started to slur with my words & say or try to talk but my mom had to rush me to the hospital. Then while there the nurses & doctors had given me a couple of tests. Then a couple days or weeks later the doctor diagnosed me with a ( TIA) transient iscemic attack. It's where I have an inch gap on my right front side of my brain which my doctor told me to take a baby aspirin for the rest of my life & I'm only in my 40's

[@sanjayraj.s9972]

What is the name of that band like she is using...!!

[@perspectivecycle7089]

Shouldnt be called "Yoga for Flexibility"......should be called "Torture for Flexibility" ^^

[@Thepianobird]

i loved every part except, namaste..... jk. not jk😉

[@zxsw85]

Can’t do any of this stuff

[@jonathancayten4154]

Like the laliepop how many links does it take you to pop

[@MartiinCarrillo]

Thank you for this 🙏🏻Forward folding is my biggest struggle. It feels nice even though my hamstrings are not that flexible. I hope I can improve it.

[@CathyMadeoYoga]

This will be a game changer for you!
