Most used instructors/series of 2023

[AnMrsDe]

I thought it'd be fun once again to tally up our most used instructor(s) in 2023. I pretty much used my same instructors from '22 but may have changed in # of days. Good to see stretch/mobility is my main genre again this year.

1) Mady Morrison -168
2) Cathe Friedrich - 144
3) Walks/TM - 134; 396 miles
4) Yard Work/Shovel Max - 82; 7,032 min. (117.2 hours!! SM only contributed 2x...we hardly had any snow)
5) Julia Reppel - 64
6) Yvette Fit - 54
7) Five Parks Yoga - 42
8) Michelle Briehler - 23
9) Heather Robertson - 11
10) Tiff & Dan - 11
11) KCM - 9
12) Michelle Goldstein - 8
13) Charlie Follows - 6
14) Caroline Jordan - 5
15) Mari Winsor - 4
16) Olivia Lawson - 4
17) Travis Eliot - 4
18) Juice & Toya - 2

+ Various YT instructors 1x - 11


TOTAL WORKOUT MINUTES = 35,132 (beat out the last 3 years! Devotions are included in this total as well).

Tallying each month made this a WHOLE LOT easier to tally for the year!!! Thanks again, Char!

I don’t count walks of less than an hour, or non- media workouts less than 15 minutes. This year, my teacher Kim Smarr created some video programs; some were quite short (eg 5 minutes/day) so I made a new rule that videos under 10 minutes don’t count. This is just my Top Ten… I had 43 total instructors, 19 live and 24 video-only.


1. Kimberlea Smarr (local yoga teacher), 134 (live classes and videos over 10 minutes)
2. Cathe Friedrich, 56
3. Jessica Smith, 30
4. Gilad, 29
5. John Espinosa (local yoga teacher), 27 (live and livestream classes)
6. Caroline Girvan, 26
7. My own yoga (over 15 minutes), 20
8. Ravi & Ana, 13
9. YogaCandi (on YouTube), 12
10. Rodney Yee, 11

Thanks for posting this annual round-up.

Tracy Steen was a new discovery late in the year for me. I enjoy and expect to try more of her weight and PHA-type routines in 2024. If you're interested:

I didn’t keep numbers last year, but I will this year!

Last year, my mainstays:
Strength: Kaleigh Cohen
Stretch: Breathe & Flow, Run Better with Ash
Pilates: Go Chloe Pilates
Cardio: walking, rowing (through 5 seasons of Supernatural)

[Rivercat]

I don't have exact numbers, but a quick flip through my notes shows:

-Lauren Brooks SUAT
-Jessica Valent Pilates
-Senior Shape With Lauren
-Zuzka Light ZCUT Kettlebells

I plan to continue with the kettlebell/Pilates mix this year as it seemed to be a good combo for me.

I didn’t count either, but my two most used instructors were Cathe and Chris Dorner. I mixed in some others as well, but those two were my favorites!

[firmiewannabe]

I didn't count mine but really appreciate the details that some of you keep for your workouts!! great job!!

Jessica Smith would get my top spot. I bought her AAP access in June of 2023 and had fun playing with all of the workouts.

the FIRM took a lesser amount of my time...I think I got a bit burned out on them so decided to take a break. I thought that Cathe would be more used since I bought her STS 2 but didn't love it so I didn't reach for it very often.
