I’ve been on Yoga Glo since I was pregnant with my first child. I can’t say enough good things about this platform. And I’ve really tested out many of the different styles. In fact, I now advocate that Yoga is for EVERYBODY and try to educate about the different styles of yoga and ways to learn how to modify. This is a very different experience than when you take yoga at a resort or on a cruise and they try to contort and force you into positions. I think that turns most people off of Yoga. Yoga Glo is helping to educate people who are new to yoga and satisfy whatever your Yoga needs are for the more advanced practitioner. For me, it’s a no-brainer that you can choose on demand whenever you have time and filter based on duration, style, Teacher. It’s so much better than trying to carve out time to practice at a specific time with other people where you have to drive to and from. On demand is really the only way I can have a yoga practice as a young working mother. I’m sure others can relate.I need to shout out to my teachers I’ve had for over a decade that I’ve never met-Felicia Tomasko, Stephanie, and Tiffany. You’ve helped me far more than you can ever realize through pregnancy, postpartum, now my next life stage in perimenopause and everything in between. You’ve anchored me and helped me get through six surgeries on my knees, along with severe anxiety and depression. I have so much gratitude for you and this platform.

Seriously. As a person who lives with depression, anxiety, and addiction, YogaGlo has had a significant and lasting effect on my body, mind and spirit. On the days when I can’t even get out of bed, there is a meditation or breathing exercise. When I manage get up, but I’m tired and anxious, I can use the filters to narrow down my search to fit what I need. Coming home from the gym, a bike ride or a hike, I can find recovery and restorative classes that fit the time I have. Whether I’m sore, energized, grieving, struggling in sobriety, tensed, stressed, sad, angry, grateful, motived, have an hour or 15 minutes, in need or strength training, tutorials, or spiritual healing, YogaGlo is always right beside me. There is such a wealth of knowledge, intention, customization, and variation in types of yogic practices as well as professionally trained teachers. I have been using YogaGlo for about 4 years now and am very pleased with the app for my iPhone or iPad. I seriously can not recommend this app and program enough. The membership is very reasonably priced for how many options are available, especially when you consider you would be paying near or more than the monthly fee for JUST ONE yoga class at a studio or gym. I hope you find what you need or realize you already had it. Love.

Like another reviewer from about 5 years ago, I really appreciate the depth of Jason Crandell’s knowledge, especially the quality of his teaching, and his sharing of the evolution of his practice. But the iOS app and AppleTV apps aren’t perfect to say the least. After just finishing a class on the AppleTV app, I tried to use the “gratitude” button to signal appreciation to the instructor, but the app raised an error message saying that I needed to watch at least 5 minutes of the class before clicking “gratitude”. So I tried opening the app on my iPhone, and going to my class history. There was the class I had just finished, so I tried leaving “gratitude” there — no dice — same error message about needing to watch at least 5 minutes of the class. Which, again, is unbelievable since I’d just finished the class and there it was in my class history. The reason for such a low star rating for the app, though, is that clicking on both the “Support” and “Contact Us” menu items in the iOS app resulted in a completely blank screen with the only option being to return to the app menu. Other menu items in the same submenu (such as “Legal Terms”) did display the intended text, though. No way to contact the app developers or get support in the app? Definitely reason for a negative review (for the app and company, not for the quality of the instructors).

YogaGlo is amazing, but forget the app itself — it’s really all about the instructors!! I have been using the website for 6+ years and I go back to the same classes again and again. I have been to many gyms around the country and also done other yoga online, and really and truly nothing compares. Jo Tastula is incredible and hands down my favorite. I have paid more than $15 a class or $60/mo for teachers who don’t even compare to Jo as far as spiritual and yoga teachings go; she is undoubtedly one of the best in the country. So I really don’t care about all the other bells and whistles about the app; take just one of Jo’s classes and you will have already gotten your money’s worth. I also love the other teachers, some of whom travel the country appearing at yoga festivals every year (so we’re not talking fitness freaks who just got their certification to earn a couple extra bucks — these folks live, eat and breathe yoga), and the wonderful meditations by David Harshada Wagner are fantastic. So worth it!!
