Very gentle. I will need more neck stretches, but liked this video.

Gentle movements for increasing flexibility and strength with the back (and core, too, a bit). Thank you for this class!

I love the stretches in this class. The only thing is that she often holds right side a lot longer than left side. Since I am using this class as some rehab, I just switch which one I start with to even it out. I feel so yummy when I am done!

The description of who this class will help was spot on. Fantastic class. Better than physical therapy for me.

I was having some difficult back spasming and this was a great break and stretch in the middle of the work day. This will become a regular!

This really worked for back and hip pain relief. Simple but very effective movements to get familiar with.

this yoga practice was, by far, my go to and favorite yoga practice in the free classes section. I have chronic back problems, and have had since I was a teenager, and some of the poses just felt so wonderful! Unfortunately, just within the past two weeks or so this video is no longer available for free. Although it s under the listing "free classes". I suppose that if this isn t a mistake, and it really is a paid for class now, I will buy it.

Nice slow interesting class. Stretches and strengtheners. A little different from the usual back exercises. Thank you, Kristin.

I think this class is geared toward beginners and those who need help targeting their back muscles for strength and stretching. Based on the description I was hoping for exclusive back/hips/hampering stretching since I exercise frequently, and I certainly work my back muscles enough the strengthening poses here were not needed. Five stars anyway because Kristen always teaches an amazing class and I just feel calmer afterwards. However the description could be more clear I think.

Yay! What a lovely class for the back. I struggle with a really tight right QL. I will add this into my rotation with two other classes here on YDL that I really love. Thank you, Kristin!

Have been slowly coming out of back pain with spasms. Today was my first day on the mat in over 3 weeks. This was a gentle re-awakening. Kristen’s classes are alway well instructed with great intention. Thanks.

This is a lovely practice for anyone who experiences any kind of back pain. I practice this a few times each week and my back feels so much better in a short time! Can you please make a longer class for back pain for days when I have more time? Namaste!

I am a huge fan of Kristin’s classes, especially the Yoga For Back Pain. It has helped me not only feel better but understand why my lower back and hips feel SO stiff and tight. I learned more in this class. The use of the block while legs in tabletop is my new favorite. This was challenging but is so effective!

This practice was lovely. It is a perfect low key sequence that gradually releases the muscle chains that tend to cause back pain when not stretched sufficiently. It is a perfect gentle, evening practice with lovely instruction, scenery, and soothing music.
