The program that YogaU developed with Tom Myers is exceptional, and I am grateful that the access to this material is unending. Since the program released, I have gone back to rewatch many of the videos, and content continues to add to my skills and understanding. Starting next week my daily commute increases significantly, so I went back to download the PDFs to reference and the audio files to listen to while I am on the road.
Please let all that care at YogaU that you offer an exceptional resource to the yoga community, and I love being able to access your content, ESPECIALLY this program with Tom.
