don't feel bad if you don't like essentrics. I don't know how many times I have bought/sold DVDs and even recorded the PBS workout. I just don't like it and don't plan on doing or trying it anymore.
I do like Sahra over Miranda but each time I have tried it just doesn't feel right so I figure I will stick to my own stretching and yoga. |

I think part of the reason that I struggle to like, much less love, Classical Stretch is when I hear the word "stretch", I think relaxing and very low effort - like floor stretching. Classical Stretch is not that, and thus is a disappointment to me, every time.

If you don't like the method, that's ok. Don't do it. The goal is to move daily. There are plenty of workouts I just hate and no matter how many times I give it a go again, in the end I still don't jive with. Like DCW said, the best workout is the one you'll love and do.

I bought the Aging Backwards set that was on sale at QVC. I don’t love the workouts, but I’m sold because already the pain in my hip is gone that had me tossing and turning at night. Also, I was really surprised at how the time flew by while doing these even though I wasn’t particularly having fun.

I love Miranda's quirkiness. I have to say that one of her moves eased my knee pain. It is the Sumo plies.
