“Very inspiring and motivating. Just starting, so like your style and encouragement. Thanks”

— JindyAnn A.

“This was such a challenge! Short and sweet, will do often when I have 5 minutes.”

— Rene R.

“Just started (no pun intended, haha) with the first workout. Coming from being an ex-athletic person and a now totally sedentary human that needs to lose 100lbs, has janky knees, and feels pain daily just by being, let alone exercising, I'm grateful for this level of beginning. I'm a super busy mom in the middle of an intense 6 month bootcamp (of the educational kind) and have been really down and embarrassed at what poor shape I'm in. Going to the gym is a personal hurdle I'm not ready for. I've had this subscription for a long time but never used it. I just tailored my home office to be able to turn my computer monitor so it faces the space of the room vs. my office chair easily, put one of our dining room chairs in that space, and am committing to including "Start Moving" as a part of my personal commitment to myself of losing 100lbs in 1 year. I'm excited to feel good in my body again, and StartMoving is going to help me get there. This is the first workout routine that feels DOABLE for me by being gentle enough for a ROSH (Recovering Overly Sedentary Human)and set in small pieces of time that I will grow as my habit/routine becomes established. And I'm not embarrassed! I love Kaisa's positive vibe and inclusive attitude. I also appreciated the (paraphrasing) "Now, if you hear some snap, crackle, and popping - that is totally normal and fine as long as you're not having pain with it", because I have a LOT of that noise going on! Today is Day One of my journey, I'm happy to have this program to help me... START.”

— Alissa A.

“I love Rachel. I mean seriously. She’s so encouraging, as all the coaches - truly awesome workout. Giving me a great boost of energy!”

— Stella C.

“This is amazing! It’s so helpful when coming back from an injury or really anytime! Yes, it’s labelled as a start level, but it’s for all levels! Thank you Kaisa and team! Love it!”

— Mamie S.

“The wrist and ankle stretching was great. Lots of unusual and effective positions and stretches -- just as I've come to expect from Start Move and Just Move. Maybe add in a class on address carpal tunnel syndrome? I'd love that!”

— Juhi K.

“nice”

— Bree S.

“This was very energizing. I”

— Dawn M.

“I love this subscription service! For someone who used to be very active and then have not been this is a great place to start. You can ease yourself back into moving without the risk of hurting yourself or "that all or nothing mentality" that a lot of other workout programs support. This is great for beginners or those that haven't been active in some time.”

— Amanda P.

“Yea Me! So excited. So glad you are starting us off in small increments. I’m building a new life style and slow but steady is the way yo go.”

— Lisa C.

“Just started with this app and have found many short workouts that make working out feel do-able! Taking it in small bits always helps me get back to moving. Thanks for taking the "overwhelm" factor out of getting started!”

— Jenny D.

“Great stretching exercises!”

— Priscilla B.

“Great stretch,”

— Rosemarie R.

“Great pace for a beginner. This was great to begin my day!”

— LaToya O.

“That was a quick fun way to get my heart rate up in a small amount of time, all while at my desk at work!! Perfect.”

— Rosalie C.

“Liked the workout but tired of the instructor saying "team".”

— Susan D.

“I haven’t worked out in a long long time and this was a challenge but felt so good. Looking forward to the next. Thank you.”

— Lilian T.

“Excellent! I've had 5 surgeries on my breast area due to cancer, I went thru physical therapy in 2016-2017. I've lapsed in my exercizing since then. This short, extremely effective exercise is exactly what I need! I purchased the 5-10 minute exercieses for the year, and intend to use these every day! Thank you for these!”

— Catherine P.

“I'm a personal trainer who had lost her mojo. Between a cross-country move I was sad to make and an injury that meant I may need a hip replacement, I felt stiff, old, in pain, and just sort of lost. I had followed Kaisa for a while and knew I respected her approach to fitness, so I decided that while I was not training others and working to slowly heal my own body, I would give her programs a try. It's made a world of difference! I quickly switched from a one-month payment to a yearlong subscription, and soon after that, my husband even began his own movement routine with her programs as well. It's not even been two months, and I'm so happy to say that I feel night-and-day different! Kaisa's gentle but smart mobility routines are a testament to the power of what the *right* kind of movement can do - while exercise can't magically heal my hip, I'm no longer seeking out doctors for an immediate surgery. And while it's true that sometimes people need the help of a good therapist and medication, exercise truly can go so far in adding to one's positive mental state: today I feel stronger, more in control, and hopeful towards the future. My joints are certainly happier, and I am, too. Thank you, Kaisa, for your positivity, your affirmations, your unabashed inclusiveness, and your really intelligent fitness programming. It is just what I need at this moment in time!”

— Niki T.

“Fantastic and doable for someone with substantial chronic neck pain.”

— Alyssa B.

“I just started so far it is good, check back later with me. :-)”

— Dawn D.

“At almost 50, this is the first workout system that has EVER stuck for me. I love how easy it is to follow along and as I get fit I can push myself to make the same workouts more difficult. Thanks so much Kaisa for helping me get fit!!”

— Kelli B.

“so far, so good. Hope to really get a lot from it! the first time was great... to be continued...”

— Rose S.

“I was very doubtful that 5 minutes sitting would make the slightest difference. But how wrong was I!!! I felt an immediate mood shift and my body was fired up to do a workout. Thanks Kaisa, you're awesome.”

— Lesha S.

“This is the perfect place to start if you need to get moving again after long stretches of inactivity. Helps my flexibility and my life-long back issues without feeling like the same old reps. I have been a very satisfied customer of JustMove for well over a year, and the Start series is just one more reason to love it.”

— Elizabeth W.

“I'm 49 years old, and relatively healthy, but completely out of shape. The videos are just enough to push my mobility, which feels like the starting point to everything else. I like the bite sized 5 minute chunks--easier to motivate myself to do "just one" (and sometimes two.) So far so good!”

— Terri C.

“I really like the instructors. There is no judgement about this being a 5 minute workout, just praise for doing it. The exercises feel good! Highly recommend.”

— Lori A.

“Yay! What a great way to start moving again❤️”

— Jan B.

“Very nice stretching!”

— Marca K.

“Thank you all for focusing a series on Sciatica and back pain. I just started this program a few weeks ago in combination with physical therapy & dry needling. Natalie's chair classes have been my first focus. Her cheery personality, clear explanations, and demos help motivate me to keep building a morning stretch routine (I am NOT a morning person). This series of stretches have helped decrease my sciatica and pain significantly. I plan to work through this entire program and incorporate it into my life. Thank you.”

— Carol Ann W.

“I work on a computer all day and this first workout really made a difference because I could feel it opening up my shoulders. Looking forward to more!”

— Candice K.

“Just beginning this and thank you! She is wonderful and so clear!!”

— Denise T.

“OMG! Thank you! Finally a work out program truly designed for the people who have trouble moving. I used to be very fit and did ALL the sports. Then I came down with an autoimmune disorder and no matter how much I WANTED to move, it simply wasn't happening. The constant pain, the muscles that didn't cooperate, and the inability to recover after even a little bit of exercise was absolutely demoralising. Most programs for 'beginners' started at a level far beyond what I was capable of and that was so frustrating and demoralising. This program is designed for those of us who are struggling to move at all, for whatever reason. It got me moving again and hopefully it will keep me moving.”

— Cynthia B.

“I actually enjoyed yoga. This is a good pace and good lead instructions. I want this to be a daily practice for me.”

— Cheryl S.

“This subscription was totally worth the purchase. After only a week, it's already been so helpful to get myself moving and active again. I love that there are short videos for specific movements and longer, more intense workouts. Its varied and interesting. I also really appreciate there are a variety of instructors and styles.”

— Rachel M.

“Meraviglioso”

— Raffaella O.

“Perfect quick morning stretch!”

— Sara C.

“This is just right! From a completely sedentary day to 5 minutes of stretching is do-able. I felt so good that I did a second 5 minute workout and I am about to do a third 5 minute workout. I am so glad Ijoined!”

— Diane B.

“Great workout for your hip❤️❤️ 10 👍”

— Marie G.

“Nice way to ease into a workout!”

— Lucy W.

“Great seated 5 minute cardio workout! I will be adding this one to my favorites. Because of mobility issues at the moment I am having to do seated chair exercises. This one, along with the rest of the Start Moving program, is terrific for those just starting out or just returning to exercise after a long pause. Thanks Kaisa for another great series of workouts!”

— Dana A.

“I needed this. Thanks”

— Diane L.

“Great five minute Routine !”

— Andreas H.

“I just saw a doctor because of pain in my arm that I have not been able to shake or run off. Got physical therapy prescribed which is all booked out and hard to come by. Turns out that starting over with the 30 min mobility is all I needed to unblock whatever kept my arm in pain. I hope this time I will for real stick to your routines Kaisa, so grateful for them! <3”

— Leonie S.

“The only reason I gave less than 5 stars is because it is difficult to find where I left off. Would greatly appreciate an app. That being said, I have searched for a long time to find a true beginner's work out. Thank you for "getting" it. I have been sedentary for so long that I have forgotten anything I knew and this is wonderful. Again, thank you.”

— Melissa E.

“Honestly have tried so many “beginner” and “low impact” workouts over the years, only to find them too complicated to follow along with & end up discouraged and abandoning it completely. As an overweight person, frequently getting down on the floor & many other aspects of traditional routines just aren’t feasible right at the start. This program was completely different & gave me the motivation to keep at it, even leaving me wanting to redo or explore extra workouts later in the day to get some more activity. Everyone says to start small & take baby steps, finally found a program that actually lives up to that advice. Highly recommend for anyone that has zero workout experience, struggle with keeping up with the “traditional” workouts out there, and just looking to get moving”

— Jennifer S.

“The workouts are deceptively easy but I could tell a difference in my range of motion after the first workout.”

— Lisa N.

“Kaisa, Thank goodness for you! I love this program, and I love how accessible it is. I am a toddler mom and my body doesn’t respond to movement the way it once did. Your program makes me feel that’s ok, and that I can take it slow and don’t have to be in pain! So excited to continue on this journey.”

— Megan D.

“Great start for a beginner! Kaisa is so very encouraging and easy to follow. Positive way to start my day I’m a stress-free way!”

— DeAnna C.

“Great way to get back into movement when arthritis has taken over your knees.”

— Sandy B.

“I have completed this week by doing class1 ,2 & 3 two times each. A great feeling !”

— Betti N.

“Excellent opening week with a knee surgery recovery. Thank you for this.”

— Glenna P.

“I love every single training, I am always looking forward to move with Kaisa. At the end I always feel empowered and stronger.”

— Maryse L.

“Cool”

— Emmanuel M.

“Awesome beginners workout. I was hesitant to purchase as have tried other beginner workouts that where too advanced for me. This one rocks and instructions are great !”

— Anne Marie R.

“I’m loving the videos and your teaching style! Thank you!!”

— Diana H.

“Came here from Barre 3 after a back injury left me unable to complete even the modified workouts. Love that is truly for beginners. Look forward to more workouts!”

— Kristen P.

“I was someone who was in great shape prepandemic. Due to a shoulder injury, followed by a back injury, followed by depression, I gained a lot of weight and had difficulty exercising. I admit that my ego didn't like starting over but it was the best decision I could have made. The exercises start slowly and each day builds up a little more. Kaisa explains each move thoroughly and is so encouraging! I'm finally optimistic that with a little patience I'll get my prepandemic fitness level back.”

— Debra L.

“This was a pretty good place to start, although slightly misleading as I thought there would be good chair work outs from the ad (I have a very reconstructed ankle) and it’s just the 1st 10 minute workout and then quickly into stuff like jogging in place which can be very painful when your ankle is full of pins. Not as mobility friendly as I was hoping. I also found that my belly and chest got in the way a few times, and Kaisa doesn’t really seem to realize going in and out of a downward dog when you have a body like mine isn’t possible. My body just doesn’t fold that way because my chest gets in the way (when bring my hips down) or my belly hits my thighs (when folding down). Something to consider for us bigger ladies, since that seems to be the target audience. I do really like the team mentality and not being told to “just push through the pain” like CrossFit. I’ll keep going but it could definitely be improved for people with mobility problems or larger bodies.”

— Jessica H.

“I’m under went a double mastectomy in November 2021 and have had 2 additional surgeries since. I’ve had limited range of motion from the surgeries and also general muscle loss of months of chemotherapy. I’m not really a beginner with workouts but I know I need to take things slow. My body is out of shape from treatments and surgeries. This Program is just what I need to get back into the swing of things. I love it!”

— Gabriella M.

“I really enjoy the Start workouts. When starting other beginner workouts, I noticed that I often overdid it or pushed myself too hard or they weren't beginner enough and I would end up hurting myself and not be able to exercise for a while after that. I love that these workouts are truly designed for people who are not in shape. I love how encouraging the trainers are and how proud of myself I am after I complete a workout, even if I couldn't do all of the exercises. I appreciate that Kaisa stresses that just showing up is a big deal and I couldn't agree more! The shame i've felt over not sticking to exercise routines has often made me never want to return, but shame has no place here and that's why I come back.”

— Rachel A.

“This program is helping me so much, also love it when you email afterwards it helps me keep going! Thank you for doing this the floor and up and down movement is not something some of us can do.”

— Gabrielle H.

“Yes!!! Just what I needed to feel good about starting back up! Been "sitting" through most of Covid and the further I got away from fitness the more daunting it was to start thinking about getting back to it. Knowing I would be super frustrated if I just tried to jump back into what I used to do ... and then give up (speaking from experience 🥴) ... I knew I had to tackle this differently. - Today was day 1 for me and I feel a tingle in my muscles I haven't felt for a long time and I love it!! Add on to that, Kaisa's energy and supportive spirit and I can't wait for tomorrow! (I did do the first 3 sessions today ... because for me day 1 and 2 were great reminders and warm up ... but I was ready for a little more movement (prob because Kaisa eased me into it so nicely and I was feeling confident)... and day 3 was the perfect level of challenge for someone like me). Thank you! ... I haven't felt this positive about working out in 2 years!”

— Carol P.

“It was enjoyable. I was not able to do some of the moves yet I did what I could and kept moving. Looking forward to the next group.”

— Susan C.

“Im really loving this! Its at the right pace for me as a beginner!”

— Kimberly A.

“I'm using this challenge to slow down and reconnect with my body, even as a trainer. I feels great to be a student again - to remind myself that we are always students of our own bodies as we go through life. This first week, going slowly some of the movements were challenging, but I felt like Kaisa was right there with me. Giving modifications, which was super helpful and I was able to complete even with chronic injury and pain. Looking forward to the rest of it. <3”

— Jay-Anne B.

“Easy enough to not feel overwhelming, yet challenging enough to not be boring.”

— Milissa C.

“I really appreciate that you understand what it means to start moving after prolonged inactivity and/or injury. Many programs say they are for beginners, but they mean normally active, healthy, and usually young, beginners. It can be very discouraging to not be able to keep up with something labeled as being for beginners, but your program started from the VERY beginning, and that was very welcome.”

— karli s.

“I didn't do all of last week but wanted to get a quick workout done. I am BUSHED! That was just right!”

— SHARRON M.

“The perfect way to return to fitness! I look forward to working out with you every morning. So glad I decided to give it a try. Thank you.”

— Susan W.

“I just love the slow build up during the start program. I thought using the chair would feel like I’m cheating, don’t be fooled. I can already feel and see a difference. Looking forward to week 2. Oh and I love the chair planks, you can really feel that one!”

— Alìson A.

“Really helpful for me since other than walking, I have been stuck at my desk at work for the past 2 years. This is very helpful for the person who is very out of shape and needs to completely reset their body. I am so glad I signed up for this program!”

— Catherine W.

“Very helpful, very easy to follow and set up perfectly for a person who has not exercised in a while. Very grateful for this program.”

— Nancy M.

“I am qualified PT and a few years ago I become unwell. And I got progressively worse with joint ache and pain, fatigue, RLS, PEM etc. I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, enthesitis and Fibromyalgia. This was soul destroying for me. To go from deadlifting 130kg and climbing mountains to struggling to walk around the block with out needing a nap. To take my body back to basics when I know it has been capable of so much more has been a challenge, but this programme so far has been encouraging and the restart I needed.”

— Taylor G.

“Love it! I used to be so active when I was younger. Then I had a couple of kids. Using this workout so far has ignited my excitement for being active not only for me but for my family! I can't wait to keep moving!”

— Jillian M.

“I love this program! I’m coming back to working out after some health issues, and the careful instruction and encouragement in this program are just what I need.”

— Freedom J.

“I am so thankful for this program! It has been years since I had been active. The START program is just what I need!”

— Barbara A.

“This review is mostly just for Kaisa-- I'm in my mid-twenties and am a former athlete. After years of dormancy in the athletic world, I was stunned and embarrassed when beginning a workout class and being entirely unable to keep up in any way. I felt like my body had failed me. Or more like I failed my body...I was extremely sore, getting injured, unable to perform, and needed to take it so slow when starting. Not only do I love this program, but mostly love YOU. You have the upbeat and "go-getter" personality of the other trainers out there, but none of the shaming. Other trainers may not outwardly shame you, but strongly urge you with "Don't quit! You've got this! Push yourself! Know no boundaries!" And while some of us need that, many of us feel out of our league, embarrassed, ashamed, and silly and then easily give up. You have the presence and the words that say "You are here. You showed up for yourself. Whatever you can do, do. Don't hurt yourself. Listen to your body. You will get there eventually. This is a process. Slow and steady wins the race. You're on no ones time line but your own." And I LOVE that. I'm kinder to myself because of you. You have changed my view on exercise and movement and I can't thank you enough. Much love xxoo”

— Brynn E.

“I love this foundation series! Able to complete it, and the challenge softly builds. I am more confident in my ability to move my body!”

— Carol L.

“Love the exercises, doable yet challenging. I enjoy feeling strong again.”

— Diana L.

“very easy to follow keeps me motivated”

— Julia S.

“Hi Kaisa, I have just joined the full-year subscription. My husband Philip, is a newer cancer patient and has only just now been able to exercise as we navigate this difficult journey. We are both doing the newest mini mobility challenge. I am so impressed with his motivation and consistency right now. So much of it has to do with your enthusiasm and uplifting manner. While we are working out together, I let YOU do all the talking! Penny PS: I have been a personal trainer and group instructor for 34years!”

— Penny M.

“Enjoy the ease of movements and the reminders it’s not about being perfect but listening to our bodies”

— MONICA M.

“This is just the right pace as I'm trying to increase my movement and mobility. I'm 65 and have been sedentary since the COVID lock down, complicated by severe anemia that impacted my breathing and stamina. I haven't had the muscle strength in my legs to start walking. This program, along with the Mini Movement Challenge are helping to build my motivation since they are "short and sweet" and I can make it through each session.”

— Gay T.

“Really appreciate the thorough instructions, the pace and the high fives!”

— Barb H.

“This is exactly what I needed to get active again after falling off the "Taking Care of Me Wagon" for far too long!! I'm recovering from an achiles tendon injury and needed to start with the basics and this is just that. Moving my body again feels amazing. I already feel more limber and just happier in my body. I have more energy every day and I'm looking forward to what's ahead on this journey!”

— Jodi G.

“Love the stretches”

— Nanette R.

“Completed week 1 of the programme after over a year of inactivity and it feels good to be guided back into it safely as I was a bit lost until as to how to get back into working out. Easy to follow and well explained! Looking forward to the next 3 weeks!”

— Pauline L.

“Three down and loving it!”

— Julie P.

“Love it. I've always struggled with exercise & after treatment for breast cancer, chemo & surgery I have felt very unmotivated & really scared to move a lot. A friend suggested Kaisa & I have to say I have enjoyed it so far. I've just been taking it slow, but that is the great thing about classes online. Kaisa is so encouraging. I have to say I do feel better after each session, even if it's just a short one. Thank you Kaisa & team. Best wishes from Kate. Sydney Australia.”

— Kate B.

“A great foundational workout that will allow me to steadily build on form and movement. I can say that I know I will stick with this...”

— Alissa H.

“I feel awesome and I am so proud of myself. The exercises, the foundations, are a great way to get back in shape. The workouts are not overwhelming and I'm actually looking forward to week 2.”

— Francoise S.

“I am thankful for this workout program. I have always worked out; mostly HIIT, weight training, and yoga. After contracting COVID this past January, I lost all of my muscle and strength and it has been so difficult getting back into fitness. So I decided to get this program to ease my post-COVID body back into working out again and so far so good. It's been very frustrating not being able to jump back into my normal workout routine, but I'm learning to be patient in dealing with this long-term recovery.”

— Naomi W.

“So far so good!”

— Marjorie B.

“These workouts are amazing for a beginner! We look forward to each one! Jennifer & Lynn”

— Jennifer H.

“These are by far the best workouts I have ever attempted. I am coming out of a long illness and needed to start moving but everything I tried was too difficult and discouraging. I have been able to complete these workouts and feel a sense of accomplishment. I can't wait to see where this takes me.”

— Charlotte A.

“I really line the moves but because of knee problems, it is very difficult for me to do the plank… any alternative ? Thanks a lot for making me move again !”

— Nicole B.

“It's fantastic! I'm enjoying the pace -:it's what I can keep up with for the moment. The way the exercises are explained step by step is great and also that there are different options given if you are unable to do it. Very pleased to have signed up!”

— Lara T.

“This program is exactly what I needed. So many “beginner” programs have left me hurt and frustrated. This program starts off just as slow as advertised. I have bad lower back problems and so far so good! Thank you!”

— Becky S.

“Exactly what I needed to get moving again. And because it is very manageable both in time and level of difficulty, I just do it without having to negotiate with myself. And I love the deconstructed movement to learn the proper form from the beginning. Looking forward to progressing within this platform.”

— France L.

“A good slow pace but challenging”

— M D.

“Loving these workouts with Kaisa - just the right balance of strength, cardio and stretch. Can't wait to see what's coming up next! :)”

— Erica G.

“I have been looking for the right program to get back into fitness and increase my mobility after losing all balance and flexibility. I have yet to figure out what is wrong with me, but a program that allows me to use a chair/walker/wall while still helping me improve has been invaluable. I wake up every morning excited to do my routine and it's amazing having the long and short videos to choose from depending on how much time I have. I look forward to graduating to more routines!”

— Brandy H.

“Completed first day ... I feel amazing ... Love it!”

— Denna G.

“I got hooked on Day 1. After trying various methods of exercise and losing weight, I had given up. Every "beginners" level was way more difficult for someone trying to go back to the basics of movement and form. The START Bundle and Kaisa's genuinely cheery disposition and warmth has forever changed my relationship with my body. THANK YOU!”

— Sofia F.

“These are exactly what I need right now. These workouts are well-planned, and leave me feeling more open, stronger, and happy in my body. The pacing is deliberate, and I especially appreciate Kaisa's pointers about form, breathing, and appreciating my body. I wondered whether I should purchase this for a couple of weeks, and I am so glad I did. Kaisa is such a positive presence in my days! Feeling very grateful for her and her work.”

— Trica P.

“Love, love, love it! I had lost a lot of movement over the last lockdown and felt like I'd aged 10 years. Moving mojo is defo back! It's only been a week but I feel so much better, cannot wait to see where this takes me! Just wish I'd taken up the offer for access to the whole programme 🙈”

— Samantha H.

“Love it! Very simple stretches that get me feeling ready for the day!”

— Paul S.

“I am hooked on stretching right now, the short sitting stretching session is so handy and I use it few times during my work day! Have checked couple of other sessions, and will expand into them the coming week. Thanks a bundle for doing this exercise sessions!!! Love you Kaisa! :)”

— Paty J.

“I'm loving this program so far! I feel so great after I'm done. I didn't realize how much working from home has messed with my body! I will definitely purchase more of the programs.”

— Melinda C.

“I am in the third year of recovery from frozen shoulders, (first one then the other) and with the lack of mobility which was only compounded by Covid, I have been basically trapped in my home not moving and stuck at a computer or on the sofa. I LOVE the Start Mobility program. It’s exactly what someone like me, who is recovering from injury or an extended period of immobility needs. With the multi-level workouts, the program is easy to customize to meet whatever you’re level or situation is. I cannot recommend it enough for people who are looking to improve their mobility and health.”

— Christine L.

“This is a great workout to start my morning! Stretches everything, works large muscle groups gently and focuses my breath. It is the first thing I do before I even leave my bedroom. It also motivates me to walk or do my weights after breakfast. No floor work is great because of my periphery nerve damage I cannot get on my knees or lower limbs easily.”

— Leslie H.

“You inspire me to move this beautiful body again. Thank You!”

— Frances R.

“This program is AMAZING. I have been overweight my whole life, but also worked out my whole life. I have always been from the 'no pain-no gain/ go hard or go home/take no prisoners' school of exercise. But between COVID and being 53 years old, I just couldn't get up the energy to exercise AND I couldn't find that killer instinct that I usually have. A friend suggested this and I scoffed at the idea of a starting/beginners workout. I was being so silly!!! Honestly, it is perfect. And I really do feel proud when I finish each workout. For anyone having trouble motivating themselves to do something....try this. I promise you, you will love it. And you will love Kasia. She is easy going, supportive and positive. I am looking forward to working out with her for a long, long time. :)”

— Anna H.

“I am enjoying the 10 minute version right now. I have been down with nerve damage in my legs for 2 years and everything else atrophied while we tried to solve it. These stretches have helped me feel like I’m able to at least work out again. Thank you!”

— Emily G.

“Thank you for the achievable exercises. I am in my early seventies and for the past 7 years have been going through treatment for breast cancer in both boobs, having had a mastectomy in one side. Not much exercise done during that time and I have now been diagnosed with arthritis in all my major joints. I have your start programme: brilliant especially combining it with specific exercises for feet and hands. I'm looking forward to moving up to the next level. Once again thank you.”

— Delma H.

“Thank you. I have not moved properly for quite awhile. One session in and my neck and back pain have greatly improved. I am looking forward to the other classes in the bundle.”

— Krista M.

“I kept seeing Kaisa on Instagram and as a former yoga teacher liked the idea of incorporating mobility into all aspects of movement. I've been dealing with a series of injuries and health issues for the past 2-3 years and my weight and general health have suffered. After doing the Start Bundle for a week, I genuinely felt a difference, even after the very first session. I had severe vertigo for a month and a half and am still unable to do a lot of yoga poses so using the chair made such a huge difference. I feel less pain in my joints and did not have much soreness after trying the Start Strength video. That's always a deterrent to starting a new program - knowing the impending soreness from starting a new fitness routine. I'm really pleased with this program and looking forward to continuing.”

— Julie S.

“Hi This workshop it is perfect to start out with. I am not that limber but can do this. I also love the chair one I can do at my desk. Really excited about doing this regularly”

— Bernie M.

“I really like this program. I've been looking for you Kaia! Your energy is great and your understanding is so positive. I have a wee bit of arthritis in my left hip, lower back pain from surgery I had over 10 years ago and I get cramps in my calves and feet and sometimes that is extremely painful. I find the stretching is helping tremendously. You are awesome. I look forward to more mobility and strength every day. Thank you for this program.”

— Jeanie O.

“Glad I started with “Start!” I didn’t realize how much I have tightened up in the past year. This has been absolutely the BEST way to get back into MOVING through a complete range of motion. An unexpected side bonus has been the release of Emotional Stress through pushing through the “pain” of the beginning stages of full movement again. Thank you, Kaisa.”

— Barb K.

“This has been wonderful for me. Dealing with some physical limitations that I can't have remedied until after the pandemic and this has been the one workout program I've been able to handle. Looking forward to your other programs once I'm back to normal! Thank you for creating this!”

— Heidi W.

“Thank you so much, Kaisa! I’ve been struggling for years with frozen shoulder syndrome on both sides, and tried any- and everything to get some mobility back. Your start mobility programme is gentle enough for me to manage the exercises (with minor adjustments) and feel good about accomplishing a training routine. But even more so, it fills me with hope! After just five days of doing it once a day, my shoulders are more mobile and my spine rotates better than in years. Who knows where I’ll be in a year?! 🤩🤩”

— Maria B.

“Hey Kaisa, I wanted to thank you so much for this start program. I am overweight and after two births in 2 years... I am bit flexible ať all and dont have much time for myself with those two running around. I ve been trying yoga and pilates for beginners... But it was still too much for mě and frustrating... But with your program I finally found out something I am able to do, I find time almost everyday for ať least a short version and even after oné week I can see (even if it is slight) improvement. So thank you very much, I Will defibitely srick to start bundle so far, but Hope in time, I Will be able to advance further. You are the Best!”

— Michaela K.

“In the pre-Covid times I was a bit of a gym rat. I had a regular schedule which was actually ramping up and then the pandemic hit. A body sculptor who I had followed online for awhile released a pretty intense home workout program which I purchased thinking I would be able to keep up my fitness goals despite the lockdown. That VERY QUICKLY fell by the wayside. Fast forward 10+ months of a sedentary lifestyle and I've lost the tone around my abs and gained a little weight in the midsection, but worse than that, I got stiff to the point that simply moving was becoming uncomfortable and I now have plantar fasciitis in my left foot, ugh. I'm not really sure how Kaisa came across my radar (probably via Oxygen Mag) but I had started following her on Facebook and when her birthday special came up and I took a peek at her programs and was instantly captivated by the super basic Start Mobility program. Here was something I could do to get my body used to moving again. I had been feeling like I needed to start from scratch and START Mobility was exactly what I needed. I bought the Mobility bundle and committed to doing a week of the START program while also incorporating the 5 minute chair exercises during my work day. I was excited to wake up to that good sore feeling again, that meant something was happening and my body was responding, the plantar fasciitis is even starting to ease up a little. HOORAY!! My first week passed and over the weekend I moved up to Mobility One and just yesterday did one of the free videos called Dynamic Dumbbell which only required one dumbbell. I was nearly in tears because I had not lifted a weight in so long and I was able to enjoy and complete that workout despite struggling a little. I think frome here I'll be fluctuating between START and Mobility One for the next couple of weeks before kicking it up to the other programs in the series. I am just so grateful for Kaisa, I love her gentle low pressure attitude toward the viewers abilities and I am so glad to have found her program to get me back into the habit of moving my body again. Thank you, Kaisa!”

— Lisa R.

“I LOVE the mobility workouts!! My knees and hips have never been happier! I also appreciate the chair routines - I’d love to see more of those.”

— Laura G.

“These exercises are helping me stretch out my very stiff left side. I understand that these movements will prepare us for the actual exercise moves in the coming mobility series. I have not practiced every day as I am a bit sore but will continue with these movements until I master them easily. Kaisa is always encouraging and is a great cheerleader. I feel supported and enjoy working out along side her.”

— Chantal B.

“I’m really enjoying the videos. I was in a car wreck years ago. I already had 2 major surgeries and now awaiting another major hip and leg surgery. I’m limited in mobility but I needed to keep moving. These videos are meeting where I’m at. I enjoy feeling the blood flow. One day I hope to move up in Kaisa’s video series. Thank you!”

— Jodi O.

“Thank you so much for this amazing start! I can't believe how much I couldn't wait to do this again! I'm in Awwwwwww, awe. LOL & I'm starting to feel like "Me" again. Please keep this coming. I Love, love, luv how you have long and short versions for All of us. Please, maybe add a "slower" vers. along with Kaisa version for some of that footwork, gi”

— Rekeena R.

“Great way to initiate my mornings!! I’m very out of shape and am encouraged by your program to snap out of my comfort zone and stretch this body! It’s amazing how good I feel afterwards. Brilliant concept!”

— Sharon R.

“Since my meniscus tear and unsuccessful surgery I've struggled with exercise. Love that this program stresses injury prevention. These videos don't make me feel like I'll ever be skinny. They make me feel like I might actually get strong. That to me is the ultimate goal.”

— Stacey b.

“So far this has been great! I’m one week in and while it feels easy( I am sometimes prone to pushing through), I appreciate that although gentle i definitely feels it the next day no am dealing with a knee injury and committed to a slow gentle rehab, so I’m feeling grateful for this at this time. Looking forward to building my kaisafit library as I continue to heal.”

— Sue C.

“I love this video! I’ve been fairly sedentary for maybe years. These movements feel so good and it’s so gentle. it does get me breathing and my heart rate up a little bit. I feel safe to push or not push my body based on how I’m feeling at the time. I’ve been at it just a week and felt improved range of motion just the second and third time through the video. I’ve been doing the 30 min version and I want to start adding in the 10 min one just before bed because these movements actually relax my body and tire me out.”

— Suzie P.

“im a teacher n 40 . gosh online classes n my back n neck is so damn painful , having say that we still have to go to school to do other work like arranging tables chair, books ... so when i come acros to this mobility online , i purchased . it so helpful . ive been practising it regurlary now . muh love !!”

— alliya k.

“Hi Kansa, I have enjoyed the mobility work while seeing you in the videos. I’ll admit my shoulder and lower back pain is limiting my range of motion. Either way I am going to continue working through it with hopes it will get better. Any recommendations for shoulder and lower back specific work would be greatly appreciate it. Thank you! Raul”

— Raúl L.

“One week in and I love it! I don’t need any fancy equipment, and I can get a quick session in while dinner is in the oven or, since I’m working from home, during a work break. Thank you for helping me kickstart my efforts to get healthy!”

— Lisa D.

“Thank you so much Kaisa for giving me the tools to START. I’d been searching forever to find the right program, and I’ve finally found it. Beyond thankful. You’re awesome !!!!!”

— Carolyn G.

“I'm really, really pleased with this bundle. Very well done presentation. I like the short and long versions and your moves are just what I need to get my body back in motion! Thank you for all the hard work in creating this program.”

— Linda L.

“I am 58 years old, a bit overweight and my exercise has consisted of walking, so not super fit nor flexible. I have both the START Mobility and START Fit and loved them! I am able to complete the workouts, felt good during and after. So happy! Thanks!”

— Catriona M.

“I have been doing this workout on rotation, mobility, strength, and sweat, nearly every day. With days that it feels too much doing an alternate activity like bike riding, (short distances) and walking with my daughter. This routine is easy to learn and while it's hard work it doesn't feel like it until you're done. I suffer from fibromyalgia so I have to be careful how I work out and for how long. This feels so doable! Thank you.”

— Donna T.

“I usually do not leave reviews, but so far, I think this program is excellent. I've been looking for a good mobility program, and after a few sessions of Start Mobility, I do feel a little looser. I enjoy the pace, the exercises and Kaisa's upbeat personality and great smile! So, if you're looking for a gentle yet thorough mobility program, you've found it here!”

— Abbe S.

“sorry not going to rate this as not fair to you at this time, I'm sure this will get better for me, I had both Knee replacements a year ago, and having shoulders issues, so things ar rough for me right now.”

— Loretta L.

“This program is Perfect!! Just what I needed to make a new start in my health journey. I've been working from home since last March do to the pandemic and haven't been working out or moving as much. This is a great way to get started. I noticed that when I do this mobility workout I feel so much better throughout my day.”

— Krystle T.

“Like so many fitness “products” I had seen KaisaFit on Instagram for a long time but was doubtful it could do what it said. I finally did a little research on it to find that at a minimum Kaisa is a real person and it’s a legitimate program. The price is so reasonable I decided to try it. For the first time in nearly a year I did not take ibuprofen before going to bed last night to be able to sleep. I’d been having deep hip pain since the summer, and two knee injuries that, along with COVID, have limited my activity level to the point where I’ve gone backward on my fitness. I’m a cyclist, but a “plus” size person so other body weight programs don’t work for me, and traditional yoga does not work for my knees. This program has absolutely improved how my hips, knees, and overall body felt from the first 10 minute mobility video. I look forward to continuing at the start level as my knee heals, moving up as my body allows. I hope this will have me back on my bike by the time warm temps show up.”

— Sarah B.

“I love this and intend to keep going- will be ready for the next step soon, I think!”

— Deidre L.

“Love this bundle! Cardio and strong work up a good sweat, but are very gentle! Mobility gives a great stretch and some balance work. I'm really enjoying the program this far!”

— Katie V.

“I have mild arthritis in the mid toracic area, causing me back pain, including sciatic nerve pain that on times i take my whole right side in numb sensation or pain (depending on the day). I love working out and sometimes because of it i dont even know how to start, because sometimes its just worst after! 😟 Anyway i started doing mobility for a whole week! And i can tell you i feel i can move know😃 i have even started working out this week! Love it! And going to keep doing it, the long on the days im not very busy and the short version when im busy! I absolutely recommend!👍”

— Yvette A.

“I've had a long period of inactivity plus rehab from shoulder surgery. I chose the bundle because I like to have options. I've started with the mobility section and have really enjoyed it.”

— Kirsten V.

“Thank you for making me move after 4 years of sedentary office chair life! I will keep going :)”

— Itzel V.

“I purchased the Mobility bundle on a whim and am only in a week of START Mobility and WOW. In a short amount of time, I'm waking up with reduced pain levels and moving around more freely, sleeping deeper and general speaking, more energy. I had expected this to be a long journey and am FLOORED with the quick progress. Highly recommended!”

— Raina S.

“I just love everything of it, and so happy to be part of this "Team", as you call us. I'm soon gonna buy other programs. The fact that they are all downloadable makes it easier to follow them (my only TV is in my living room, where I have enough space to workout). Thank you!”

— Valeria R.

“it has me finally moving and jump starting doing something for myself. I let 2020 to get to me and bring me down and my mobility really suffered. Thank you, i love that you have a ten minute and a 30 minute course, this way when i feel a bit more mobile i will be able to do the 30 minutes. I just started it on saturday so this is actually my first week!”

— Guillermina M.

“I did one of the start series 6 days this week. I want to let you know how much I appreciate it and you, Kaisa. I am starting to exercise after almost a year and the start series is helping me wake up my muscles and allow me to get more motion and strength without injury. I normally would try to pick up where i was the last time i worked out, which inevitably ended in pain. I love seeing my body remember its own strength and look forward to seeing what else is possible. Thank you. Keep going.”

— Kara W.

“This is an excellent video to use in any stage of fitness. I love using it first thing in the morning to loosen up before I start the day, or treat it as a dynamic warmup video. It’s also the perfect video for days when my body is too exhausted to do a full workout - the 10 minute video is the perfect amount of movement for a true day off.”

— Reilly K.

“Kaisa, this is absolutely beautiful and fantastic workout! I love that you really point out the importance of going slow and being nice and gentle to out body. Thank you!”

— Ajda P.

“I've been in recovery for an eating disorder and have consequentially gained a lot of weight, lost a lot of my strength and mobility. I loved this workout and could instantly tell how this was gearing up for a more fluid yoga-esque practice. I'm so excited by the modifications as I can actually feel accomplishe, "yay, I did exactly what the instructor said," instead of defeated - "I'll never be able to do what they're doing." Thanks for making this and for creating such thoughtful and empowering modifications. ♥♥♥”

— Melissa J.

“I have been in bed with Covid and getting moving again feels so good. After being sick this is a perfect place to start back up. Tried short first and today did the long one. Had to take a break! Sickness sucks! But did the whole thing and feel good about it.”

— Natalie K.

“Nice slow start. Great workout for getting in touch with my body's do's and don't's. Awesome prep for Mobility One!”

— Kia S.

“Love it!”

— Jodi S.

“After two years (OMG) of not working out, and a double joint replacement over the summer, I needed something to just get me started! Kaisa is so personable, and her instructions and demonstrations are crystal clear. I have some limitations - no running, jumping, or hopping - but I already know how to substitute if needed. So far I'm enjoying the program, just kind of embarrassed how out of shape I am. I have a tendency to 'go hard' and end up giving up because I can't meet my own expectations. I don't feel that so far, instead, I'm happy to be moving again and setting goals to keep going.”

— Sharon B.

“Completed first Start Mobility! Loved it!! At 59 its a perfect fit for me! I'm looking forward to feeling my progress.”

— Deborah G.

“This Start program is invaluable and means the world to me! Thank you!! This is the only workout series that makes me feel safe, comfortable, strong, and confident as I continue in recovery from some major back issues and return to movement and exercise. Progress is obvious - I see it and feel it. The narrative is positive, helpful, and encouraging. I can imagine -- in the next few months -- being ready to move to the next level bundle.”

— Kirstin L.

“Totally Fantastic ! Keeps me going on any day.”

— Jodie H.

“I got this, thinking I'd probably only use it on injury days. All the Mobility movements are targeted and gentle, and . But GUESS WHAT? Last week I had emergency abdominal surgery, and as soon as the MD says okay, I'm going to start doing START Mobility. I've done them all before, and I think they are going to be perfect for my post-surgery body. SO so glad Kaisa came up with this set of movements.”

— Jennifer H.

“Wow! I have quite a few of your mobility programs, but thought I would purchase this one as well, hoping to show it to my mother (she is 76). I just did the workout myself, and I have to say I love it for myself!!!! I know it's intended for beginners, but ANYONE can get amazing mobility and stretches in these movements using the wall and chair. I'm excited to add this into my mobility routine, esp on those days when I feel extra stiff. Thank you so much for all you do, Kaisa!!”

— Alison W.

“I found your ad on Facebook and decided to invest. I started the 10 min workout last week. I moved to the 30 min workout today and LOVED IT! I had my right hip replaced and the left hip is a bit tight but I was able to move through this. I will continue this workout for 5 days and move to Mobility One. I can already feel the benefit of the daily stretching on my body. I don't feel achy or moody. I feel refreshed and ready to go. Thank you Kaisa!!! Deborah D”

— Deborah D.

“Fantastic! I love it, thanks so much.”

— Wendy H.

“As I get older, I am 65, I have noticed stiffness and pain in my right hip. Doing these exercises is making me feel more flexible.”

— Sandy W.

“I got sars-cov-2 back in March (aka coronavirus, COVID-19, the Rona) and since then I have struggled. Before getting sick I would run 3 miles and do HIIT without complications, ran a half marathon the year before and have been struggling with my breathing and fatigue to get back in shape. Starting slow with these workouts has been amazing, hopefully this plus my new respiratory meds will have me back in the groove. I sweat in these workouts and have sore muscles the next day but is slow enough it’s letting me catch my breath. Thank you Kaisa! ICU nurse here and since getting sick my job has been much harder so hopefully this will improve my mobility and endurance.”

— Morgan P.

“I absolutely love it, and can feel myself getting stronger and more mobile each day. My husband has started doing it with me, which makes it even more fun. We love how you explain each movement as we go along, and especially reminding us to breathe !! Thank you 😊”

— Kindra B.

“Easy to follow and right amount so that I can do it everyday. Thank you.”

— Sumiko F.

“It's been a pandemic-length of time since I've done any exercise to speak of besides walking and I've got to admit that the thought of starting up is intimidating to me. This first week, I was able to watch the welcome videos and get my head around the idea of exercising again. I'll start some actual movement next week but i appreciate that the program is just meeting me where I am, without any judgment, and getting ready to take me on a journey. Thank you.”

— Amy G.

“I have a lot of arthritis, but I am feeling less pain and am able to move better and it has only been a week. Loving this!”

— Angela D.

“If you have leg injuries this is an awesome place to start.”

— Jackie G.

“Kaisa has such a clear and nice way to train with her! The only reason why I’m not giving 5 stars is because between some of the excersises there isn’t much time. So if you want to follow her you must have a big mat that you don’t have to turn in order to see the video and do the excersise without losing a part of the instruction. I loved loved loved the ending! It made me feel really appreciated and proud.”

— Nyanda v.

“Love this!! Kaisa goes at exactly the right pace with exactly the right amount of instruction. So easy to start at whatever ability you are at!”

— Cindy H.

“Just what I needed to loosen up my body. Still stiff in a lot of places. I always feel more energetic also.”

— Cornelius W.

“I have always been very active but the menopause has had a negative impact on my body and for the last few years have really struggled with aches and pains. The start mobility is for me basic moves but have felt the benefits from a gentle approach to fitness and stretches for my tired body. This is the way forward for me now”

— Diane T.

“I have recently completed weeks of physical therapy for whiplash. The desk exercises are going to be invaluable to maintaining my mobility. They are a great addition to my routine.”

— Kara P.

“Have been mentally scheduling exercise sessions but never seem to be motivated enough to get started. Start mobility gives me that extra drive, it is awesome. Fell in love with the first session that I just had to go and purchase the remaining two. My body feels like it is made from a cloud. Light and nice. Even got my dad to join me. It's a must have. Looking forward to purchasing the others next year.”

— Desene C.

“The video and workout is awesome just wonder if there are plans to expand to mobile application or enhancing where the video can be accessed? Are there plans to make the workout videos downloadable? This would be a tremendous asset for those of use who travel”

— Emilton R.

“After being in car accidents & not taking care of myself its feels amazing to be moving my body. Thank you Kaisa for the great program. I look forward to trying the others ones after some time👏🏼”

— Amori D.

“Was super skeptical to start. Have lots of hip shoulder back issues and wasn’t sure about a video program. Tried it and n a whim and within a week I had upgraded to the full access package. The mobility workout is such a great place to start. I love that there is a short and long version plus a chair version that’s only five minutes. I’m insanely busy at work and seated most of the day. This gives me the chance to click on the video and get some movement. Feeling more limber already. Felt super motivated by this workout”

— Holly G.

“I purchased your "start" package yesterday. I have been having a terrible fibromyalgia flareup for the last few days and everything is killing me. I tend to do the worst possible thing when I am in agony---I get into bed and don't move for several days at a time. I could hardly move this morning but I'd promised myself I would try the short start mobility video (13 min) anyways. I did it and have to say, I feel so much looser and less sore now. I know this feeling will wear off later in the day, but I have decided that when I start feeling extremely stiff, I will do a short video again. I find most exercise videos to be too difficult on the really bad pain days, but this one was just right!!! Thank you Kaisa for creating a routine that is great for those of us with decreased mobility!!!!! I am also very lucky to have the president of the Canadian Pain Society as my pain doctor and will be showing him your videos.”

— Nicola D.

“Fifty-ache plus years old and needing to compensate for a desk job so I thought I'd try Kaisa Fit. Start Mobility is very gentle on cranky knees. A bare week in and balancing is getting better, so's the mobility. I do the 30 minute one daily, and can feel it working my abs, as well loosening up hips, neck and shoulders. I love Kaisa's cheerful and encouraging style and enjoy being a member of The Team. Very happy I bought this program!”

— Keera F.

“It feels so good to be moving with confidence again! I can do this! Thank you for making this easy to achieve, yet so rewarding. MG”

— Marlyn G.

“Thank you very much, I’m enjoying the beginner mobility workouts a lot. Looking forward to getting into more of your programs as my mobility improves.”

— Rhonda H.

“I love the this workout routine... it really helps with my limbs not feeling stiff or sticky... if that makes sense? i use it the short workout as a warm up. I will be looking into purchasing the other workouts”

— Teresa C.

“This is exactly what I needed to get going and give my body that needed initial boost of energy to dive back into my fitness. Thank you so much, Kaisa!”

— Mira K.

“This has been a great place for me to start..no pun intended! While I try to live an active lifestyle, I have to honestly say this type of activity has not been a part of it. What an eye opener it has been. I have discovered I am not very flexible at all. I have loved the process of learning different ways to move my body but most importantly, how to care for my body! Thank you!!”

— Felicia R.

“I'm used to doing exercises, Tai Chi, yoga, physio exercises, but after some surgeries and recently a slipped disc with severe sciatica, AND hypermobile joints, I must admit I became weary of exercise as everything I seemed to do made me feel worse in one way or another. I am 60. I have stuck to the ten minute start mobility routine, alongside a few other trusted exercises, and the improvement in a few days has been considerable. The first day was hard, painful. Day three, it was already easy. And I feel stronger in the day, moving about in general. I think I might be getting my body back. And that's just with the ten minutes I will stick to until I feel totally comfortable to do more. I tried Pilates, but it made me so much worse, it was too much too soon for me. Kaisafit feels right to me, I know I can adjust it to suit my needs perfectly.”

— Gisela G.

“I have been doing the long version of the start program (stretching) for about 2 weeks. I am a 68 yr old woman who has been moderately active all my life including walking my golden retriever 2 to 3 times a day for about 40 min at each outing. However I have become quite stiff in the last 2 years due to too much sitting between dog walks. What I have noticed since starting the program is that my gait has improved, my ability to shoulder check when driving or bike riding has improved, my walking speed is faster with little or no discomfort, posture has improved and I just feel better. Thanks for being in my fb feeds, etc and thank you for providing this program. The instructions are clear and simple and for me the tempo is great. I'm looking forward to starting the other programs soon to further improve my fitness level. Thank you Kaisa!”

— Jillian W.

“GOOD!!!!!”

— Juan A.

“I just started mobility training along side my regular work out. This has been a great warm up for my regular workout. I find that I am better prepared to workout with weights and even Hiit after doing the start mobility 10 min workout. I have been doing the longer version (30 min) twice a week and the short version 4 times a week as a warm up. I love it.”

— Andrea D.

“I love kaisa fit! So far it has really helped in my mobility again. I am on and off of exercising and this time it has been awhile, so start mobility is great for those starting back again! Thanks! I would like to see some food plans on weight loss if at all possible, I started this program so I can get moving again but I also need to lose a bit of weight! It would be really nice to see something geared towards those that need to lose, I would definitely buy it! Thanks again, keep up the good work!”

— Charmaine J.

“This workout is fabulous. I love the body positivity of it, the encouragement, and the focus on functional movement. Thank you for distinguishing yourself from the punishing bs of the rest of the fitness industry! This is accessible, useful, invigorating stuff.”

— Emily L.

“I love this program. It is an excellent starting point to get movement without being too strenuous.”

— Jen B.

“I bought this program because at 54 with a sedentary job, I know I'm not as flexible as I'd like to be. Sure enough after even just 6 days I can feel my flexibility starting to return. And I find myself incorporating some of the stretches into my work day when I'm stuck at my desk. Kaisa's video's are fun even when challenging, and I love that they don't have generic music in the background. I'm still in the "Start Mobility" package and look forward to all the "Mobility" video's.”

— Nico S.

“The START Mobility 10mins is great for morning stretch routine!”

— Mélinda B.

“I am 62 and pretty deconditioned, having been sedentary for several years. I had a fall about 6 months ago in tore my bicep. I’ve been in a decent amount of pain since. I’ve just started the starter exercises and am already seeing good improvement in my range of motion and pain! I will continue this low stress movement until I feel stronger, but I can’t wait to advance. I love the way my body feels after doing this program.”

— Denise G.

“Loving this. Feel improvement even after one week. Could personally benefit with even more hip opening movements”

— Carolyn S.

“I'm not overly flexible due to having arthritis. I found all the stretches easy to do and didn't feel pain or seize up like I have during other kinds of exercise. I highly recommend this for anyone who is time poor or trying to get back into exercise.”

— Ellen G.

“I was so nervous because it had been a while since I did any exercises but this program is building my confidence really I do it daily. I feel empowered and I hope in time I will move to 30 minutes Thank you”

— Besky N.

“I haven't worked out in a while, so I was concerned about mobility and endurance loss. I thought this program would be a great way to slowly get back into movement. I was right! Only a few days in & I already see a significant difference. I will definitely purchase the other programs.”

— Lauren R.

“I have been wanting your program for a long time. But was afraid because i havent moved in a long time. With "Start" it has given me the opportunity to warm the body. I hope within 2 weeks I'll be able to move to one to "Mobility"”

— Kathleen Q.

“The moves are fairly easy and a great start. After this week, I have seen a huge improvement in my mobility and flexibility.”

— Trish P.

“I did the 30 minute start mobility program. It was great and I felt looser and more flexible afterwards. One caution: balancing all my weight on the chair with two hands (for the precursor exercise to down dog) caused the chair to flip down and I landed hard on my knees. Best to push the chair up against the wall.”

— VALERIE D.

“Just started my 30 minutes mobility today . Felt great .. thought I was walking on an old wooden floor from all the creaks and noises from my body . But looking forward to day two . Thank you Kaisa for putting this together .”

— Charles L.

“Wow - what a great way to start to return movement and flexibility to my body. Kaisa’s “let’s do this!” attitude and real words of encouragement are just the ticket. I’m using the 10-minute video this week and am so excited to move on to the 30-minute version. Thank you for this gift!”

— Carol H.

“Brilliant! Thankyou so much. It’s made me realise how tight my body is and how much I need this every day. I’m 42 and have done weight training in the past and never flexed or stretched properly and an paying for it in my body now. Never, ever too late to start this and begin my mobility journey. Thank you Kaisa!”

— Melanie L.

“I love it and I look foreword to it everyday! It’s the highlight of my day!”

— Diana S.

“After just one week of using START Mobility, I have noticed a huge difference in the activities I do daily. The movements are approachable and easy to follow. It has been worth every second.”

— Chelsea S.

“I have been dealing with lower back, hip and knee issues for the past couple of years accepting this is as good as it’s going to get. Limited mobility, weight gain and niggling pain. But after discovering this program, I am moving again and feeling so good about myself, it’s changed my whole outlook on everything. You are so encouraging and motivating - it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thank you so very much, Kaisa!”

— Rachel K.

“I'm a 52 year old woman and was intimidated about getting back into working out after a couple of months of doing nothing. My joints, especially hips, felt stiff, and my knees hurt. I was SO HAPPY to use the 10 minute video a few times because the amount of time felt doable. The moves provided a great stretch and did not need more strength than I have. That helped me feel brave enough to try the 30 minute video a couple of days ago, and I've now done that twice. Again, great full-body stretch and not intimidating. I wake up feeling more limber and happier! I'm planning to step it up soon and try other videos. Thank you so much!”

— Nishma B.

“I think this program is awesome I'm glad I got it!!! It's only been 1 week and I haven't worked out for a 2 years due to studying and now I'm getting better at the movements, I even do it at work with Co workers so they love it too☺️ keep it up!!”

— Kaihoe a.

“This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for to increase my range of motion. I love the free videos from Kaisa and the strong example she sets, but at 51–with a few sedentary months behind me at the moment—I wasn’t ready for most videos yet. This one feels so good! I really appreciate the effort to reach fans like me.”

— Julie H.

“I just did the 10 min and 5 min stretch sessions. I feel like she knows me and what my body needs. I am 60, and my work has me in front of a computer for hours a day. I have avoided exercise due to an ankle injury and some arthritis in my knee. The wall stretch gives me hope that I may be able to work up to a real workout again. So grateful for her gentle encouragement and “no judging” of my miserable fitness level.”

— Peg M.

“This is exactly what I was looking for, I sit a lot on my job for the first half of the day then have to get up and run around. I am stiff and as I’ve gotten older I’ve gotten slower. These movements challenge and stretch me and I’m looking into purchasing additional programs. I really like Kaisas communication with the movements and instructions. I need instructions until I get the hang of things. Thank you -”

— Elise B.

“I like her energy, her instruction and her grace (she allows me). This is a great warm up for my golf and tennis-- I'm 57 with history of frozen shoulder, VERY tight facia and very tight muscles. I dislike yoga as I can't do 75% of the flexibility moves and gravity pulls too harshly during yoga (even with props)-- this is ideal! Thanks!”

— Janet M.

“Good I like it and do the class every morning.”

— Robin B.

“Excelente”

— Liney W.

“Thanks so much for the short sessions - I have had a very busy week at work but I managed to fit these in between meetings.”

— Calinda B.

“It’s a perfect place to start!”

— Rebecca S.

“Loving mobility start that i am doing with a friend on zoom as still on lockdown in Melbourne. But we have done it 4 times this week now so wondering what we should do next as 2 mature ladies?!”

— Claire B.

“This was go great. I’ve been having muscle problems and tightness for the longest and just by doing these few moves and learning how to breathe helped me so much in just this one week. 💪🏽💪🏽”

— Dionne E.

“I recently had a really rough pregnancy that ended in pregnancy loss. After months of sickness and exhaustion, I feel extremely deconditioned and disconnected from my body. On top of grief, this is a recipe for shame and feeling betrayed. START mobility is helping me wake up each day and feel my body again as I recover. Thank you.”

— Moriah F.

“I only had time to complete one class last week, but I am already hooked! I am really excited to make it part of my daily routine!”

— Bonita W.

“This was good. I really needed the upper body stretches. My upper body is a mess from sitting all day long. Thank you.”

— Sandra R.

“Amazing. no regrets. I feel completely energized and in tune with my body after doing these exercises. This has given me the confidence I needed to pursue a more active and healthy lifestyle, Thank you Kaisa.”

— Sandra B.

“There is nothing better for ME than Kaisa Fit workouts. I have them all, I follow the instagram account to mix it up, and between this and my daily walk, I feel at the top of my game. I am your biggest fan in MEXICO !!!”

— CARLA L.

“I’m 54 years old and am feeling stiff and creaky. I was nervous about starting (yet another) program. I have purchased 3 others (not Kaisa’s) and done them exactly once each, as they felt like too much for me. I love love love the Start Mobility program! It really feels like dipping my toe into fitness without getting overwhelmed. It’s pretty easy- but that is helping me build the exercise habit. I never dread doing it. I am confident I can build up to her other programs. I also love her presentation style- so calm and friendly and reassuring- she’s not all amped up and annoying. Thanks so much for these beautiful videos!”

— Leslie B.

“Belle façon de récupérer de la mobilité et de se préparer pour les programmes suivants!”

— Pascale P.

“Just started with Start Mobility. I have really bad knees (arthritis, bilat cruciate tears, past surgeries and a knee that subluxes every time I try to squat) Having a stretching workout that doesn’t rely as heavily on squats or kneeling is a godsend. It makes me feel more limber for the rest of the day. Thanks so much.”

— Chryssi P.

“I'm an elder woman with a total hip replacement. Kaisa's mobility videos looked fun - but were intimidating too. I decided to try them anyway. She added a knee-friendly option and I'm HOOKED. I have been using the videos daily and I'm surprised by how much better I feel, the improvement in range of motion, and the spillover into other activities. My walks are better, my sense of balance is better, even my workdays at a desk seem easier. I feel excited to know I have the confidence and strength to hike and bike again. Thank You!”

— Lisaana O.

“I just started Mobility Start this week and I really like it. I started to feel pain in my hips from not enough movement (remote work and not enough outdoor time). I like that the movements are slow and controlled and just enough of a challenge that I don't feel like I want to quit. In fact, I've done workouts every morning since I purchased the bundle. I think I'll be able to graduate to one of the other programs and keep up with it eventually. Thank you, Kaisafit!”

— Myra F.

“Very doable and encourages you to participate on regular basis. Felt invigorated after workout”

— Linda Z.

“This was an amazing addition to your already amazing program! I have been doing your mobility one program but this Start mobility is great for when you are a little sore or maybe pushed too hard the day before.”

— Keturah w.

“I am very satisfied with Mobility Start. I am a dispatcher and sit a lot. I’ve added your program to my workouts. It has helped me build confidence and stretched out my stiff muscles. As a beginner I do what I can and I know the more I do it the progress will follow. Thank you!”

— Trinette W.

“I love the 30 minute session. It has helped my back and hips so much in just one week.”

— Kathy F.

“I have been fighting an uphill battle to get my body back in shape. Every program that I have tried leaves me feeling deflated and demotivated because the exercises and moves are just too hard for me, or the instructor just moves too quickly for me to keep up. When I saw the ad for Mobility Start, it seemed suited to someone like me. I bought it, and I have to say that I'm happily surprised! Even I can do the moves!! I'm not as flexible or strong as I would like to be, but Mobility Start has me believing in my ability to get there eventually! Maybe I will even graduate myself to Mobility One some day! Thank you, Kaisa, for creating programs for all levels of ability and seeing the capability in all of us!”

— Candice S.

“Really great for every level. Especially fantastic if you have any joint issues.”

— Meagan N.

“Man! This program came right on time. I had bought a Mobility package and was about to give up on it and request a refund when this program was announced. With arthritis in both knees and my left thumb, floor exercises are just plain hard on me. This program is a standing and sitting program, which is perfect for me. It is so energizing. Now I have a program that will help me work my way up. Thanks!”

— RON F.

“It’s been about a week since I have started the mobility program and I already feel a world of difference with my body.”

— Victoria H.

“Thank you Kaisa!!! I have my 68 year old mother using the start mobility program and she loves it. The instructions are great and the speed is not too fast!!! And of course I Love all of the other mobility programs for myself. I will catch up to your speed and stretch varations very soon!!!! I really needed this.....EXCITED AND THANKFUL!!! T. P. from Atlanta”

— LaTonya P.

“So happy I bought this. You have to start somewhere! I love the instructors vibe!!”

— Sheila w.

“Great great great workout. I am 3 months post knee surgery and it's definitely helping me to slowly regain mobility and flexibility in my knee”

— cheera s.

“I am so glad I finally hit the purchase button on this after seeing it come up on my Instagram feed numerous times! I’ve only done one ten minute one and just finished the 30 min one and feel so free! I have all kinds of lower back, sciatica, and knee issues and every time I get back into my fitness routine and journey (I used to be a personal trainer), I get injured and am out for 2-4 weeks at a time. And it is very discouraging! I have been contemplating doing more mobility training and really believe this will help and ENHANCE my journey!! You are lovely and calming and I am grateful for this!! I plan to do the 10-minute one every morning with my 10-year old son and the 30 minute sometime before bed. Thank you! Thank you!”

— Hagir E.

“I love this program! I get enough of a cardio workout in my daily routines, but have neglected stretching for a long time and have the stiffness to show for it. After a few days of this workout, I can honestly say that I feel the difference and it feels great! I will definitely be expanding my kaisafit library. Thank-you so much Kaisa!”

— Ellen C.

“Thank you Kaisa! This has been a Godsend! I’ve struggled with motivation and mobility for a while now and you make it possible for me to start again with ease. You are so personable and easy to follow. Thank you for representing the real women in the world. You look so healthy. -Grateful”

— Verlette S.

“This is the best way to start moving! The specific movements are easy to pick up on and gently get you started. I am really enjoying this program!”

— Karin M.

“SO GRATEFUL for this programme. I'm doing it with my 15 year old daughter who has shortened Achilles tendons, and I'm recovering from surgery myself. We feel....GOOD! Plus our spirits are uplifted being part of the TEAM! YAY! Thank you so much!”

— Rebecca C.

“Day 1 of Start Mobility. I was surprised how much of a workout the 10 min video was for me. I loved the stretches - gentle but effective. The reminder that it shouldn't cause pain and mobility will improve is important. I'm 59 yrs old and this is a perfect way to begin to move my body that has been stiff since COVID began in March. As I work from home, the Start Mobility is a great way to stretch during the day. Thank you, Kaisa!”

— Catherine G.

“Wow, you keep coming up with new and easy ways to get a great stretch and movement. I have been doing mobility 1 and mobility strength for months now and thought starting mobility may be good for warm ups before other training.... I was blown away with how much I felt the stretch. Also I could see how my alignment was different on each side and how great I felt afterwards.”

— Gary S.

“After just a few days I feel my shoulders, hip and spine changing already. I have a desk job and my shoulders in particular are loving these releases! There are no gimmicks here, just moves that feel natural and good.”

— Andrea V.

“Thank you for this Kaisa! I’ve recently had a total hip replacement and also have osteoarthritis in my back, so have really struggled finding workouts which are gentle enough and don’t require getting on the floor (I can get done but can’t get up due to the pain it causes my knees!) I also work long hours so I’m super stiff from sitting all day. These workouts are perfect to keep me mobile!!”

— Caroline B.

“Thank you so much! I can do this! I have multiple rheumatic conditions and I need to move to keep me healthy. I tried the mobility 1 and smart mobility. I finally found something I can do without pain or being out of commission for the rest of the week. Kaisa you are great to follow your energy and encourage is just right maybe I can move through the series and gain some strength and loss some weigh So far so good. AudA.”

— Audrey N.

“The new Start Mobility series is exactly what I've been looking for, for YEARS! I have serious problems with kneeling, and the new videos focused on sitting or standing positions is an absolute answer to my prayers. Thank you so much for this.”

— Mike M.

“Thank you for creating this and including it in the mobility bundle! I have fibromyalgia and can do this on a hard day (i.e. brain fog & soul-crushing fatigue), but would probably not even attempt the other videos. Today I did the short version right after a walk for a little extra movement/giving my upper body a break too.”

— JENNIFER E.

“Just did the first short 10 minute START mobility. Perfect for people like me that do workout but are stiff as a frozen, dead body.I did this after my 20 minute walk and jog on the treadmill and my weights for today (strict press and deadlifts) I look forward to continue this and moving onto more advanced videos. Thank you so much for doing this beginner-beginner series!!!”
