This is awesome. Does this mean we can access these on Hulu?

Wow. Never have never heard anything about these.

When I select where to watch it says not available for streaming.

Would love to see these.

I have a good friend whose mom had some of these workouts on VHS. I have never seen any of them on PBS or VHS. I have everything CS/Ess on dvd from Season 5 and on.

[BunnyHop]

The locations sound amazing.

I think I have heard that they had production quality issues, so they didn't make the cut for dvd release. Oh, and maybe there were some music rights issues??

Seasons 4 and 5 are rocky enough, IMO.

They should take a look with an eye to reworking them in light of what has been learned as the method has grown. Reshoots, yeah??

I doubt that they will film outside of Canada again. They are really happy with how well Season 14 has been received and found amazing locations without having to travel outside the country. Pretty sure that the plan is to continue with Canadian locations.

I do know that their focus is streaming. There are no live events (training or retreats) planned for 2022.

I'm just happy they're still going. Such good stuff.

I agree. And I like the outside Canadian views. I wouldn’t mind having those seasons 1-3 though.

[anetta]

Yes I am glad they have the streaming too.

I am lucky enough to have Season 4 on dvd.
