[@chicamathis923]

I have lost 3.4lbs sents i have started thank you you have inspired me to keep going Thank you so much

[@Fightmasteryoga]

That is awesome. Keep up the good work.

[@rebeccasullivan5284]

I've only just found this channel. I've been in a bad way with my back and really wanted to give yoga another try but my previous experiences were so negative and felt like I was an outsider to the cult. Lesley has a beautiful way of connecting with you and accepting all you can and can't do. I am gutted to learn that this beautiful lady is no longer with us. I send all my best wishes to her family and loved ones. I am grateful to still have the opportunity to know even just a part of this beautiful person.

[@lennyzimmermann3114]

I've never done yoga regularly, and lately have been putting more care into my physical and spiritual health. I started doing these videos on my lunch break every day before eating and have found they help me clear my head and warm up my body. I'm already noticing such a difference and feel so guided by your instruction. I always feel I'm too hard on myself when doing yoga, and in these videos you always comment at the right times when I'm starting to get into my head about my form or ability.

[@brittanydedieu1016]

I skeptically started doing your yoga classes to help my mental health. To my surprise, they help me more than I could have ever imagined. I'm only starting 'day 8' but have been doing these first 7 for about 3 weeks- practicing and trying to do the poses correctly. It's incredible how much it quiets the mind and to boot, it makes my body feel stretched and relaxed too. The way you teach is so accessible to all body types which was my ultimate 'yoga fear' when I first started - that my body type wasn't meant for yoga. Your classes though quiet all those negative thoughts and allow me to acknowledge and appreciate what my mind and body can do together. Thank you for posting these Lesley.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Brittany De Dieu I'm so, so happy that you're joining us! I'm especially happy that your seeing benefits to your mind and body. I just used this quote for our newest video, "...the mind is the cause of both bondage and liberation. If the mind is sick and sad, the whole body gets sick, and all is finished. So first, you must give medicine to the mind. Mind medicine: that is yoga." -Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. I'm really so thrilled that you're joining us. Yoga needs to be accessible to every type of body because we all need relief from those negative thoughts...myself included. xoxo

[@lydiabeumer4038]

I never realized how much yoga would help with my anxiety! Only one week and I've been able to better control it! Thank you Leslie!! Your 30 day challenge is awesome!!

[@thatrandomandy]

I’ve never done yoga and tried other beginner challenges and it was really desmotivating cause I couldn’t do the things they asked.. with your videos I can feel how I’m slowly improving. Thank you so very much!

[@myra0841]

I started this workout in tears after realizing yet another thing I'm no longer capable of doing since being diagnosed with brain cancer. Afterwards, I'm clam and collected again. I've never been a yoga person and disregarded all the friends and family and even my neuro-oncologist telling me to try it. I made a New Years resolution to do yoga every day this year, and it was the best decision I could've made. The second best was starting with your program (after 2 days of a different program that just moved too fast for me). From the bottom of the hole in my head where the tumor used to be, thank you so much for your videos!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

That’s so awesome. After this program you can try the new yoga for beginners 30 day program I have. 😊

[@missolona]

Today is my 7 day class and I could not be more happy! Yoga is helping me a lot!! You did an amazing job with these 30 day classes! Your voice is so sweet! Thank you from Italy

[@gracebyrnes]

I'm learning so much more from your classes than I ever have in any other yoga classes! Your teaching style is fantastic. Thank you!!

[@angelinasenevirathne5515]

Today I completed my first week. feeling awesome. Thank you Leslie, you are awesome. Sending you and everyone positive good vibrations :)

[@remmy4678]

Done with the first week. Thank you so much. I now find myself correcting my posture while I work which helps with the tensions that normally causes pain. Amazing after only 1 weeks 15 minutes work-outs. Thanks namaste 🙏

[@1203jjt]

After a death of someone close to me in August, I spent the past 10 months in a state of depression. Only recently do I feel like I'm starting to come out of it some, and this is due in part to your videos. Thank you, and a donation has been made.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+1203jjt I am so, so sorry for your loss. It takes a long time to heal. I'm sure there will be good days and bad days. I'm so glad that you decided to take care of yourself and practice yoga with us. We will be here for you and you can leave messages anytime. Thank you very much for your generous donation. Please join our mailing list at fightmasteryoga.com We're going to start a FaceBook group soon so that our members can connect with each other. I would love for you to be part of it.

[@bwswannabeyours]

Absolutely love this challenge ! I started yoga a couple of years ago but then stopped because I moved out and this year, I wanted to get to it and you're helping a lot. I only have a request : could you give more spoken instructions about when to inhale or exhale and when to change position ? It is hard to watch the video and do the exercise at the same time. Thank you so much for the amazing video

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+mel thank you for your suggestion! I'll try to remember to add more breath cues. Thank you so much!! :-)

[@bwswannabeyours]

Thank you :) You're awesome !

[@scatolabox]

+mel I agree with you! Thank you for this lesson!

[@rkymntfx8991]

Starting a new chapter in life, and want to bring mindfulness, yoga, and reconnecting with the world around me into the forefront of this new chapter. Glad to have found your videos, as they're the first steps on my journey in this new chapter of life.

[@maceyfaithriley]

dang today was so hard for some reason, but i just finished and i feel so accomplished and so much better then i did before. i’m glad that even if it’s only day 6, i’m keeping up with it because this series has seriously been so amazing and inclusive especially for us who have never done yoga!

[@sarahzottl4940]

It has taken me more than a week to finish the first seven days but I will definitely be continuing. Great videos.

[@oxoxchinaxoxo]

This has been such a helpful tool for my pain management!

[@Jerrypetrelli]

Shoutout to the people that are doing this during lockdown pt2 and well done for getting this far!! its helping to alleviate some of the stress

[@nagem1D]

People from my MMA class are doing your yoga to help with their training, I’ve fallen in love with this and it’s nice to see guys doing it as well.

[@LotteBillie]

I really like the sound of your voice. I skipped a day, but I will continue where I left off. Instead of giving up. I feel more relaxed trough out the day.

[@rebeccaelizabeth8573]

This is exactly what I needed in my life. I just made it to day 7, thank you for these videos!

[@Thebibi8]

I like this class because it allows me to pick up single parts of the vinyasas we regularly do in other videos and to master them with the breath! Thank you lovely Lesley ❤️🙏

[@dbarth77]

My family and I enjoy the beginners yoga every night around 8. It tends to help everybody unwind and I can say that in the last 7 videos we have ALL slept better. As a PTA I do alot of lifting and shiffting patients all day long and until I started doing your yoga I was waking up every morning with a terrible contraction iin my cervicle spine with a intense headache. My boys who are 6 and 10 try to participate and they even sleep better and my wife who is 32 has had decreased complaints of leg and back pain. So thank you and keep making good videos.

[@emariad]

I’m soooooo glad I found your channel! I’m plus size and yoga has always been something I wanted to try, however, I’ve always been ashamed to go to a class because I have not done it and also being self conscious about my weight. Always felt I needed to be smaller to do yoga. This beginners challenge is absolutely perfect for ANYONE beginning no matter size. I just completed day 7 and can already see a difference in my body, flexibility, and strength in just a week. Thank you Lesley and fam!!!!

[@haggisreflux]

Your yoga for beginners playlist is the first I have ever practiced. It is definitely more challenging than I expected and I am loving every minute of it. The mental boost I get from the practice is amazing!! I'm looking forward to advancing and seeing the changes to my body and mind.

[@lemonyfrosting]

Didnt expect myself to get this far! i am almost never consistent with whatever i do, haha. however, i feel super light and stretched out after every workout and i just cant help but to continue! its an amazing feeling!hopefully I'll come out of this challenge feeling stronger. thanks lesley!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+lemonyfrosting Yay! I'm so happy to hear that you're doing it! Great work!

[@olgasaraiva9847]

Loving this! I wanted to get into yoga, but coulnt afford lessons, and i couldnt find any youtube classes that really captured my attention.. Yours did! Thank you !

[@Michi.Keeper]

I love this. I feel that my body and my mind crave for yoga every day. It's so soothing. Yoga makes a huge difference in my life. Thank you for your videos!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

I'm so happy to hear that Silvette! Thank you! xx

[@BBR2006.]

Leslie, I am on day seven and I have really grown fond of yoga because of you. I am a powerlifter/bodybuilder and have never like stretching. Until recently I’ve started getting aches, pains, tingles and I’ve worked on being better at stretching however that was not enough. I haven’t had a good experience in yoga classes so I went in search of beginner yoga on KZbin. I am so THANKFUL for you and your videos. I can already feel the difference in my body since starting this challenge.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

So glad we found each other ❤️

[@kbikegirl1]

Thanks to you, Leslie, I just finished a whole week of a home practice. I've been doing yoga, in a class, for over 10 years, but never have done a home practice, too. Woo Hoo! I did it! Here's to many more times on the mat, in my home, with you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

YAY!!! Welcome to our channel! I'm so thrilled that you're joining us. Thank you!

[@charolevistamissbodi2464]

Thank You God 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️

[@Fauna-gt5ii]

it's amazing to see so much progress in my movement capacity after such a short time of your videos! Thank you Lesley, bless 💖

[@east01coast]

This is my second time attempting it and I finally made it a whole week I am so proud of myself. Thank you for your videos!

[@rosesmith000]

one of many favorites in this series of beginners videos! Thank you!!

[@caoimhelenihan2792]

This is my second 30 day challenge absolutely loving it. Thank you

[@BriellaFendi]

I love your teachings on day 7 & I am very impressed with my journey it has put me in a more positive and peaceful mindset ... no more back pain ! Thank you so much 😊

[@gabrielakoodziej4887]

I am absolutely in love with your classes and your voice as well

[@Fightmasteryoga]

you're so sweet, thank you Gabriela!

[@angelinasenevirathne5515]

I agree, such a soothing voice

[@dalemita]

Leslie THANK YOU SO MUCH! this challenge is great for beginners, it's been a week, but I already feel an improvement in my day to day. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@pheonixsamurai]

I have only been doing this for one week. When I first started I could not sit upright with my legs crossed due to lower back tightness. Today I finally got there!! Thanks for all you do!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+pheonixsamurai Wow! That's so awesome! I'm really happy to hear that you're noticing improvement in your posture already. Keep up the good work! :-)

[@esrakarca3758]

Thank you Leslie, I am really loving your classes. I'm so glad my friend Doug suggested your program when I told him I wanted to start yoga. Wıth anyone else, I may not have enjoyed it so much. But thanks to you I am hooked! I plan on going on to the 90 day challenge after this is done!

[@missylovestroy]

Love love love these 30 days videos . I had stopped doing yoga for a while and this is getting me back into it again . I also like the fact that they don't go too long so I definitely have time to fit them in each day . Thank you from Australia xxx

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Maureen Jessica Mary So happy to hear you're getting back on your mat. :)

[@Captain.AmericaV1]

First week done, thank you 🙏🙏 I'll be doing the thirty day twice before moving on to more advanced, it will help prepare me and give me more practice.

[@atleynavanale9467]

Committing to a regular workout routine has always been difficult for me, but this program is so convenient and easy to follow - I have so much fun! I missed two days due to a cold, but I was able to jump back in and continue where I left off. Flexibility has always been challenging, and I can see a difference in my downward dog already! Thank you, I'm loving these videos and plan on doing the 90 day challenge after this one!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Atley Oldenburg I'm so happy to hear that this is helping you develop a regular practice! That's wonderful!! xoxo

[@nailingbencher9292]

Thank you for excellent lesson, love it ,,,

[@kellycole7305]

I was almost sure I would have to quit early on (like day 3 lol), but I am very happy to have made it through a week.

[@marienazjakova1818]

I have an Adaptive shortening muscles in my legs and I could never push myself to do the training, even if I know I must to. But with Your classes it's so satisfying and peaceful and I'm beginning to like and learn about yoga more and more. Thank You!

[@joseantoniosalinasvega7956]

Nice and soft practice i enjoyed a lot, my body felt warm and relaxed, thanks for sharing Lesley, namaste.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+jose antonio salinas vega Thank you!! Namaste!

[@rosiebill2817]

I don't normally stick to set work outs or just work outs. but I already have noticed changes in the base of my back. thank you x

[@Fightmasteryoga]

😊

[@abbiesamson8485]

I am going to be honest, today I really wanted to just sit on the couch and take a nap but I am glad I took the time to do this video. Thanks for this. Pushing myself to go get on the mat and have just a few minutes really helped.

[@morczification]

Thank you, this is changing my life for the better. I am becoming more flexible, my health is improving and my mind is becoming more focused on the present moment. Namaste.

[@susanbegghalbert6668]

Wooh! It's getting challenging! I definitely broke out a sweat in this one! Loving this but feeling like I want to redo weeks 5, 6 and 7 before proceeding. Thank you SO much for this!

[@saadiamalik9366]

Hi Leslie. I have completed my first week and excited for the whole 30 day challenge. Thank you so so so much. 🙏

[@Fightmasteryoga]

🙏

[@AdirondackRuby]

I missed yesterday, so I did 6 & 7 back to back today...wow...I got so sweaty! But I enjoyed it, so I think from now on, I will repeat the previous days practice before doing that days.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+RubyLovesRocket Awesome! I'm glad that you were able to keep going! xx

[@natachanolasco2058]

really enjoying this. been trying to start learning yoga for a couple of years now and never found a video that didn't make feel ultimately pooped by the end. these videos are just whats needed for someone who's not used to bending their body!

[@Dazzlemebeautifully]

Finished day 7 ! I really think this is helping with my postpartum depression . Thank you so much !

I really love these classes Lesley, great addition to YogaFix 90 classes.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Zsuzsanna Benkó thank you!! you're so sweet!! :-)

[@charolevistamissbodi2464]

This is my 7th day and I am very proud of myself 🙏🏽💪🏽👍🏽 thanks for sharing this video 🙏🏽🧘🏽‍♀️

[@JennyAndTheBoys]

Lesley! You are amazing and beautiful and so knowledgeable ! Thank you for this 30 day series! My full moon intention (resolution) was to do yoga everyday and your videos are hands down the best! Thank you X1000000! See you tomorrow!

[@VampJapgirl231]

I know this was posted over a year ago so chances are that no one will see this comment but this series has been so good for me. In January I hurt my back and was unable to exercise for about 5 weeks in total but this is really helping me to get back into it and start each morning feeling good! Thank you!

[@natalieharper974]

I've started doing this with my regular workout routine and I am loving it! I hope some day to be able to do a handstand lol. Thank you for your lessons!

[@madisonturner4785]

Really loving free yoga lessons, I really enjoy yoga but haven't ever known exactly how to habitually start. Thank you so much!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Madison Turner That's so awesome! I'm glad that you're creating a healthy yoga habit!

[@rahultempnew]

Thanks a lot for posting the awesome yoga sessions! I started them a week ago and sticking to them, been doing a lot of video gaming and realized was addicted to it. Sitting long hours caused pain in my chest bones and now I am trying to get over addiction and put myself more towards spiritual practices. The pain is little bit reduced, I hope with regular practice it will go away. Thanks a lot again!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+rahul sharma I'm so glad that you caught the gaming addiction before it caused any real damage!! I'm really glad that the pain is reducing. I do think it will continue to get better. Great work!

[@synchroslot]

I just completed my first full week of yoga and have loved every minute of it. Thank you for providing such a great intro class free of charge! I am excited to continue my yoga journey with you and hope to support you as much as I can.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Jana MacLeod That's awesome! I'm so happy to hear that you're joining us! xx

[@pogofig]

Thank you for your video series. I am starting over with self-care and this is a wonderful program to help me with my goal to learn and practice yoga. I have problems with my lower back and I am finding some support and relief as I move through your beginners' challenge. Thanks for your generous spirit and positive energy, and for leading your viewers through this progression slowly and surely. I'm looking forward to completing this challenge and moving on to your others.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you so much! I'm really glad that you're enjoying the series!! :-)

[@verushckacizzelle7403]

Thank you very much. I’m on day 7 now and I’m extremely 😊. Thank you for the word of encouragement for having reached a week. I feel very motivated. Wonderful blessings to you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@vickiel4]

I am so grateful to you for doing this 30 day challenge. I have interested my two friends in yoga now and we're all doing this challenge. Keep up the loving positivity

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Victoria Legge I'm so grateful that you're doing it too!!! Thank you for inviting your friends...it's always so nice to motivate each other.

[@jeanetteseymour6859]

Nice! Balancing on left easier than right, thank you so much, Namaste

[@AAndrews2177]

LOVE these videos! As I continue my journey with mental illness, I am so thankful to have video series like these to help ground myself and be more mindful throughout my day. Thank you very much, I can see myself becoming a full fledged "Yogi"

[@borzoskaa]

I love it! I love the diversity of the curses, it always feels like something new and it's really what I need right now after work. It's so nice to shut out everything else and do yoga! Thanks a lot, may you be happy and blessed.

[@xTriviaLuvs]

Since I am played off work for another month due to the virus i have started this challenge. Its just difficult enough to be challenging but easy enough I want to keep going!

[@Corinnx]

Dear Lesley, I want to say that I like your classes very much! Thank you so much for your motivation, your quotes and your positive way of living yoga! I completed just the first week and it is really fine!

[@xfiteyedoc]

7 days complete. I've already told others about you and this wonderful program. Thank you again :)

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+xfiteyedoc Awesome! Keep up the good work and thank you SO MUCH for telling others about it!! :-)

[@andrearuiz2549]

Leslie Its been amazing, just one week and my poses and flexibility have improved a lot. Thanks for sharing your practice and guiding mine lots of love

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Andrea “lacometita” Ruiz oh so happy to hear that! xoxox

[@StuieHunter]

Thank you so much for these videos. I've been having problems with my back and hips for a long while and these sessions give me relief while strengthening those areas. You've given me a lifeline to eventually get back playing soccer, which I love :)

[@cinnyspiceOnInstagram]

I love your classes so much! I just finished day 7, you start out slow and you let us keep it at our own pace! I feel so refreshed after these. Thank you so much for posting these!✌🏻❤️

[@py8043]

This is the first time I'm doing yoga and I finished my first week today! I missed yesterday and did this morning and day 7 just now, outside at 10pm and still 23° Cl. I got sooo super sweaty :D It got really fast for me, but I'm trying my best! Thank you very much!

[@Managamasplymiad]

Excellent! Love that quote about yoga with choosing where to place your attention!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Joyfulmomof6 Wonderful! I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it!!

[@patriciamadigan5366]

This was wonderful, especially how the last few days all "build up" to come together slowly into a beginner vinyasa flow practice. My only wish would be to have more breathing clues, but other than that I love this "challenge" so far!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

❤️

[@awakenotwoke6930]

I’m day 7 in & I love it. I will definitely follow & support you. Great job. Feels great.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

So glad you're getting into yoga Jay :)

[@НастяСамарина-з1й]

Feeling so good and waiting for next day to to new one.Thank you for this amazing lessons!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Настя Самарина that's so wonderful. You're doing great!

[@nailingbencher9292]

Thanks for keeping posting the best yoga. ❤

[@lucase.rosadomartinez4346]

Gracias practiced with my son ARRG

[@jerialotuslove8703]

Thank you so much for giving me a chance to gently reintroduce myself into yoga after having a baby six months ago and gaing wayyyy to much weight. This is really helping my body and self-esteem come back to a new level. Much peace and honor to you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

I'm so happy to hear that you're getting back to yoga! We mom's need yoga a lot!! Don't beat yourself up about weight gain, I gained 60 pounds with Indy (my oldest) and 50 with Stone...and I felt really good about myself for only gaining 50 the second time! Keep loving yourself, practicing and remembering that you're so much more than a number on the scale. You're a beautiful mommy! xx

[@jerialotuslove8703]

Fightmaster Yoga Wow you are so sweet!!! Thank you so much. I think I almost gained close to 100 LBS with Lotus (exaggerating I'm sure) but close. I really appreciate your encouragement. Day 8 was really tough but I'm so determined that I'm about to re-do it this evening. Thank you again!!!

[@masonhoying764]

What a great practice to return to with this virus madness! My goal is to break my 67 day streak.. last time, I did the beginners, then went to 90 day challenge

[@aebliss]

Thank you so much for uploading these! A week in I already feel very different like I already feel less of the tension I used to always have in my muscles and the breathing technique really calms me down. Thank you again and see you on day 8!

[@pumpkinspice1999]

for me it's going wonderful! Thank you for doing this Leslie! You're truly an amazing person and the best teacher!

[@BDaniPhotography]

A week in to (re)starting this program, I can see those little signs of progress like being able to go deeper into a pose or hold it for longer.

[@dmnmd08]

Hi. I know this video is 4years old. But I just stumbled into it. I enjoy your video, and love hearing the sanskrit names. I just finished my first week and I feel good. I look forward everyday for the next video. 🙂

[@cozierjames613]

Thank you for a great first week! I started doing this during quarantine after a long time not exercising (had a baby a year ago) and it feels so good to return to yoga. If you are still answering questions on older videos, do you have any suggestions for yoga poses to help heal diastasis recti? Thank you!

[@marineO3]

Thank you for this amazing challenge ! So happy to finally discover yoga and practice it every day !

[@Crakka78]

Thanks for this!!! This has done wonders for me physically and especially mentally. I really appreciate it.

[@amandabeniamin3198]

You're absolutely amazing at this. Such a good job!! I am loving this challenge and how considerate you are with these lessons

[@sarahhill1492]

When doing downward dog and you say press into the base of your hands is this the heal of the palm?

[@lesleysetchim8111]

I am loving this series to ease me back into yoga after my back injury. Thank you. Also, what are some essential yoga books you recommend for beginners who aspire to be teachers?
