1. Gentle Fitness not only feels good, but is wonderful for keeping a very mature body toned, flexible, and strong. Review by Margaret

   For many years now, you have come into my home to lead me, first via tape, then via CD, through your wonderful series of movements/exercises. I'm writing because I want you to know that all these years later I still look forward to regularly joining you for that quiet and curiously relaxing time of focused attention on breathing and movement, and to thank you.
   
   I originally found Gentle Fitness on a visit to Mayo Clinic, and couldn't resist buying it. It looked like it would be a pleasure to use, and I felt confident that the moves involved would be "correct" and efficient. I was always active as a youngster, and as an adult participated in various classes (e.g. yoga and aerobic dancing), and worked out at home with everything from the old Canadian Air Force exercises to a stationary bike and treadmill.
   
   When I started to use the tape, I found your instruction incorporated every move I'd ever learned from my limited experience with physical therapy, plus, I suspected, just about any others I might encounter down the road. I enjoyed your class so much from the very beginning, and felt it calming as well as an amazingly good workout. I initially used it on alternate days with a treadmill workout followed by a light weight routine. Later I had some issues with my legs, especially knees, and my gratitude for your class increased mightily. I used it every day for quite awhile as my sole workout. When sufficient healing had taken place, I replaced the previous treadmill/weight routine for a stationary, recumbent bike/weight routine every other day.
   
   Gentle Fitness not only feels good, but is wonderful for keeping a very mature body toned, flexible, and strong. It also helps one stand tall, sit straight, and b-r-e-a-t-h-e deeply (which feels especially good to someone with asthma). It also helps one stand tall, sit straight, and b-r-e-a-t-h-e deeply (which feels especially good to someone with asthma). I always look forward to your easy-flowing, quiet class, and just don't get tired of it. I really wouldn't want to try to do without Gentle Fitness, and have a spare tape and disk on hand, just in case.
   
   Best wishes, and many thanks. You have made a big difference in my life. (Posted on 8/19/09)

2. It has filled an extremely important void for me to live a positive life with hope. Review by I.A.

   Thank you with all of my heart for your video. It has filled an extremely important void for me to live a positive life with hope. My body had weakened so much over the years that I feared for my health physically and emotionally. In knowing that there was something I could do about it, but did not have the means was extremely frustrating. THANK YOU! (Posted on 8/19/09)

3. You and everyone on the video are an inspiration to me. Review by Stef

   I had brain cancer and have suffered many unwelcome side-effects. When I received the video I was only able to do part one. Now, 2 months later, I can do almost the entire video! I want to thank you for enabling me to finally partake of an exercise program. I feel so good about myself and optimistic that I can take a proactive role in continuing my recovery. You and everyone on the video are an inspiration to me.
