I'm 71 and started yoga at age 45 - began stretch classes with Riverszen about 5 years ago. I had a friend from Laos who passed away a couple years ago and I attended her Buddhist funeral. Part of the service required us to kneel for an extended period of time. When we could stand, I popped right up without thinking. My friend's daughters who were in their 40's and 50's asked "Can you help me up." After we were all standing, one of the daughters turned to the other and said, "We just had an old lady help us up." Thank you daily stretching for keeping me strong and independent.
