I have been making some short videos for my clients to follow along with at home. Feedback has been ALL positive, as many of them/you are using/viewing & exercising along with them regularly! While, it may be necessary to move some furniture around 'for now' as I have had to; I find that it's a great way to spend 30 mins every day! Sending all of you my most sincere best wishes at at getting through these tough times! Sally |
