As a certified yoga therapist, I am elated to have such an amazing tool at my finger tips. Yoga Therapeutics Pro will allow me to continue to exceed my clients needs by serving as a resource to verify or gain additional information about conditions that my clients are faced with. As a yoga teacher trainer this tool will be a wonderful resource for the trainees in my yoga teacher training yoga programs. Thanks for centralizing such valuable information!

I am thrilled about Yoga Therapeutics Pro. When a student lets me know about a health condition right before class, I have information at my fingertips to ensure they can practice safely; and when I am looking for inspiration for my practice or the next class I teach, I can scroll through the categories. And with this app, my yoga therapy clients are empowered to experiment with new poses safely and effectively. Well done!
