- I've been getting lots of questions about yoga for hamstrings so this video is all about hamstring flexibility and creating a full body experience. Find ease as we increase flexibility and stability in the backs of the legs and stretch the full body.
This sequence is also great for stretching and supporting the back and relieving tension in the neck. Build awareness of the sit bone to heel connection and how to integrate breath to find what feels good and enjoy your practice!

It's been about 7 months. Yoga nearly every day. I just touched the ground with both heels in straight-legged downward dog for the first time :')
I've been doing yoga for YEARS and still can't do that! But I'm getting a little closer every day. Congratulations! I'm so excited for you.
I too finally can touch my heels down after 7.5 months!it’s so exciting
Such a wonderful feeling I am so happy for you :)
I love to see your 'older' videos and your present day videos, your journey has helped millions and millions of people. Each video carrying so much awareness, knowledge, care, wisdom, playfulness, and insight- you're truly a form of abundance in my life, Adriene! A great gift to everyone!
I’m not kidding when I say, that’s the exact same thing I said when I started the video! I’m happy to see that I’m not the only person that thinks that and appreciates her journey in making and following our own! Namaste friend🙏❤️💫

I've a beaten up body. 25 years of forestry. I haven't looked after myself. I started yoga a month ago and identified my hamstrings as my main problem. This video is a diamond. Ill be using it weekly for some time. Thank you so much.
25 years of... forestry?
@@ipercalisse579 yup
You helped this damaged, frayed combat veteran begin to heal. Thank you.
Thank you for your service. I hope you have continued your journey to recovery.
Thank you for your service to this beautiful country (Canadian 🍁 immigrant here). You're a true hero 🙏
This is what makes Adriene so good 😂🤟

Yes, she's is so popular and famous, there are plenty of stretching methods for beginners but there are also important rules to follow to see quick results and avoid picking up strains while going about it, I am an ex-dancer and I've been practicing the splits and teaching stretch for over 20 yrs you're welcome to try out my "learn to stretch" video tutorials once you're done here
Good morning from Germany, beautiful people 🙏🌈 it‘s my birthday and I‘m bringing all my hopes and my trust onto my mat today, letting go of my past last year. Sending out love to you 💛
Happy Birthday!! 😃 Have a wonderful day ❤️
happy birthday from Melbourne,Australia!
Happy birthday from Sydney and best wishes for the coming year.
Joyeux anniversaire ! 🥐
Feliz cumpleaños!!! :)
Wow, with hamstrings being the slowest area on my body to respond to daily practice, how is it I have never done this sequence before? Simply lovely. The hamstrings feel less tight, and I even found a use for the long, red pizza box ribbons they use here. Not just for saving and bundling items up! Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. Found some emotional release as well. Makes sense as I have hurt these hamstrings in the past rushing about stressed.
I definitely have to work this one in at least once a week. I can sense the hamstrings will benefit greatly.
Process day 7. 276 days in a row.
Hi William, I used to do this sequence when recovering from my injury last year. It really worked! I'm glad we're doing it again today. I will visit this more regularly too 🙏
What even are pizza box ribbons?? I've never heard that before! :D Great to hear that you had a good time :))
@@johannafrog2684 The ribbon is put on the box in such a way that you can easily carry your pizza home.
@@astridlim5512 Someone at work even said I looked taller, lol.
Hi William. I've been enjoying spotting your comments on all the videos from the calendars of the last few months. 😊
I found that Yoga for Cyclists - day 24 of Expand (June 2021) - had a similar benefit for me, just excellent stretches for the lower body including the hamstrings! Couldn't believe I hadn't tried that one before. These calendars are great for exploring more of the YWA catalogue than I normally might!
Girl, you classes give me peace. Thank you.
You can also have a string 🧞♀️🧞♀️🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️💁🏼♀️🙅🏿♀️🤱🏻🤰🏽
Lex Luther!! Oh Adriene, you are so present. Your humor and humility are a joy to behold. Thank you for these live practices that allow you to shine through to all of us. Namaste
I just loved the Lex Luther comment so well too. So 80’s Superman movie 🍿 of you Adrienne!!!
Comment: When you say book, I look for a book with the same thickness as the block. Realization: The exercise was a bit harder to do with a 4 kg book about physics.
Great practice! Keep up the good work.
Erik Wilson haha I just did the same thing! I put 4 books together to make a block thickness and realized I only needed one book and even that was too heavy. Off to buy a yoga block tomorrow me thinks !!
Hahahahahhaha so funny
I had a box set with all seven of the Narnia books, which was probably a terrible idea.
Yup. Shakespeare's Collected Plays. At least it was paperback, but still
😂I'm dead!
I really enjoyed this video. It gives a good stretch but does it safely and gently and provides a full body balance in the postures provided.
Fastest 23 minutes ever! My hamstrings feel AMAZING after this video. They were so tight when I started the video. Now they are stretched and strengthened. Thank you, Adriene!!
Yessss!!!! Hi Sarah!
🙋🏻♀️ World’s tightest hamstrings here! I am definitely saving this video! So many wonderful exercises 🙏🏼
"Different strokes for different folks," I was waiting for the hey-o! 🤣 My hamstrings feel tense nearly 100% of the time and are my main motivation motivation for getting on my mat daily. This practice felt INCREDIBLE! After the first 10 minutes my hamstrings felt the least tight I remember them feeling in a looong time. Thank you, Adriene!
Practicing Day 7 on July 7th, 2021. 🎈🎂🎁☺️
Namaste. 🙏🏻
Yes, I did this super stretchy sequence for the legs again ! Very interesting 🤔 I’m not sure if this is good or bad for your sciatica Laura, so be cautious 🤞😯 I think tomorrow’s practice is a full body workout but 21 mins should be manageable for this senior yogi 😉 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💕
I just started doing yoga recently after I bought a yoga kit online, I've been doing the 30 day challenge I'm on day 26. After my practice today I decide to play a bit after and work on my hammies. At the end of this video, I can finally do down ward facing dog with my heels on the floor. It's amazing watching my progress I was so tight when I started and now I can see my body unfolding. Thank you so much for sharing with us!!
Wow after reading your comment I tried doing downward dog and both heels on the floor, no problems! I'm so confused!!
@@zaynabseedat i feel!! Its like the two poses to do a splits trick like idk why its so easy but im not complainin
Thanks for this! I often avoid hamstring stretches because they’re just so tight I get frustrated and don’t always even feel a stretch because my joints are so tight. This was manageable I will come back to it again and again
I’ve been practicing for over a decade now and this was one of the hardest videos of yours that I have done! I kept having to remind myself to breathe. Wow guess my hamstrings are tighter than I thought! Thanks, Adriene!
I like the way Adriene walks us through the practice and reminds us to be gentle and kind to our bodies 🙏🧘♀️💕
I’ve never enjoyed yoga….until my daughter introduced me to your videos. I feel good inside and physically during and after your sessions. What a lovely heart you have.
I have been talking about doing Yoga for so long now, i just didn't feel too comfortable joining the Mums at the local school on a Monday night.
In preparation for running the London Marathon on April 23rd, you're videos have help to give me a sense of peace in my preparation and have helped me to stretch up before, after and in between my running.
Thank you so very much Adriene for these videos, they are just brilliant and so are you ! xx
After this video, I finally touched my toes for the first time in my life!
After how many sessions ?
Good Morning , Fellow Travelers of the Mat , And Thank you for your company today on the mat . I am looking forward to joining you all tomorrows on the mat . Enjoy your day 🧘🏿♂️🖖🏿
A long stretch with Adriene is the best! Into the library it goes. Thank you YwA!
really enjoy this as its different kind of flow. very nice and gentle process :) Namaste to all practising from SG
Back at you from Korea!
@@williamb7275 Wow, wonderful! Was going to visit S. Korea in winter of 2020 but covid. oh well. Fighting ;)
Everyone's here talking about their hamstrings but i have to talk about how much it helped relieve lower back pain, especially the runners stretch felt so good! I'm rejuvenated,thank you :')
While I have diificulties with my body and accepting it as it is, watching and practicing your videos tought me SO much about loving and respecting it.. it's like therapy - it really DOES feel good, or better - every time a little bit - thank you so much, Adriene!
I seriously neeed this hamstring stretch. I love how these practices make me more focused and present. Thank you. Namaste xo
Adriene, I don't even know where to start. Words could never completely express my gratitude to you. Yoga has made my life so much better, and it is all because of you. You have given me the courage to find what feels good and you always make me smile. You are such an inspiration to me. Thank you so much! Namaste.
Oh, thank you. I love this channel and this exchange. I am so grateful for it. So thank you my friend! Lets rock it out! Namaste.
This felt amazing 😍 I've been working my legs pretty hard lately and this was just what they needed 🙏🏻
Love doing yoga with you Adriene, and this sequence was much needed because my hamstrings are REALLY tight, so I am gonna work on it and in time I am sure they get more flexible!
Very nice, gentle ,and effective. This video is the epitome of adriene. Hilarious with her puns and quips throughout. Makes me smile! Thank you for a wonderful start to my day. Going strong everyday since Breathe (January 2021)!
I have had tight hamstrings for forever. That second down dog really felt different. I think I may have to return often and see what amazing changes my body has in store for me when I work carefully and kindly and target my weaker areas. Thank you.
I love this excercise as I have weak hammies. As I have a terrible memory and am so Bob on computers I went to the poundshop and bought one of those spiral notebooks with coloured dividers in. Now I can look in it and see if I want a gentle excercise, work on my abs, a tough work out or as in my book the sweaty section etc., etc. makes it easy to find the one I want to do that day. I also put how long the excercise is and also what benefits and thoughts I had on it at the time. I also make a point of looking through your videos and try new ones but just some days I think "well not feeling 100% so what can I do that I know will benefit me?" So I can just open my book and go to the relevant section and off I go. 😀
Yay, 5 million subscribers! 👏 Thank you for your dedication to this community and for making everyone's life a little bit brighter 💛
Yay 10 million suscribers! In just 2 years! Thats amazing!🧘🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Four years after doing this one originally and that dressing gown tie is still doing the job! 😂
Was about to comment the SAME!! Upcycle is MY JAM 😂
Hahaha ditto!!
Same!
i have the tightest poor hammies in the world which are really giving me grief. this is super helpful and a can feel little changes and me legs are getting super strong. thank you adriene for getting this dumpling to get off her bum and spending time for herself. since your 30 day program my anxiety has decreased nd my confidence and positivity has just been amazing. thanks 😊
This is fantastic. I could feel a difference already in the second Down-Dog--I was looking less like a dude in a really unorthodox football stance than ever. I'm going to be Captain Bent-Knees (with the power to modify ALL THE POSES) for a while yet, but it feels awesome to see a little progress here and there.
Yessss. Amen Kyle! Amen.
Kyle S. I can relate, i remember one time last week where i could do a 'perfect' down dog after doing multiple sets that day. very next day - back to normal. i look forward to getting this stuff down though.
+Yoga With Adriene hello down word facing dog my lower back seem to arch were yours is flat . what's wrong with my back and how do I fix it please
IDidintUploadNoVDOs keep practicing and bend your knees my friend. Everything slowly and make sure you breathe😉
This is a follow on from yesterday’s Runners Yoga and excellent for the runners in my family who can all benefit, one in particular who recently had hamstring trouble. He will thank you for that Adriene ! After this practice I can really feel the effect and just know it will improve my downward dog. See you tomorrow for Heart Chakra, with love, 🧘🏼♀️🤗👍🏻💞namaste 🙏
hey adriene can i just say i have had such severe pain in my hammies that i couldnt walk and after doing this practice i just feel renewed and a sense of ease i have been craving my the heavens always watch over you you truly are a healer!
AMAZING!!! This was an incredible stretch for my hamstrings. The last one I couldn't find my block or a book so I just used a sturdy cardboard box and the shake I had while holding and resisting was insane. I did not expect that at all with just a stretch, but it felt great. I have right hip issues and this felt wonderful for that area too. I will definitely be coming back to this video for targeting that area. Thank you as always Adriene!
I discovered your videos a few months back and been practicing with them almost every day. I want to thank you and let you know it's fun to noticing how you yourself have changed through time
Been doing one video of yours a day for a week now. My body feels so good and I'm able to sleep like a child every night. Thanks for that!
Francis Leibowitz Yes! The power of yoga! Strikes again! Love it. Thanks for sharing Francis! Enjoy your practice as it grows1
Yoga With Adriene Indeed! And it helps to have a cute girl to look at for motivation. :)
Do you have any tips on sessions that could be good for increased focus?
I have exams coming up and it would be nice to refresh my mind once in a while.
All the best!
I don't usually comment on these things. I wanted to share that your videos have provided me a way back to yoga after breast cancer, and during. You had classes that didn't require me to put weight on my upper body. And now that I am able to move slowly back into practice, I am finding your energy and peace astonishing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I have the tightest hammies in the history of mankind, but this video has slowly but surely helped them to loosen. Now for the hip flexors...Why is it every time I go to do most poses, I get cramping in my hip flexors?! Adriene, would you consider making a video for those of us who have hip flexors that talk to us? Thank you for all that you do!! I really look forward to you coming into my home every morning for almost a year now! Love you!
Thanks for this video adriene - I always tend to suffer with the shakiness you talk about when doing hamstring stretches so thanks for mentioning it, I thought it was just me!
You are not aloneeeee! :)
Process day 7, I saved this video since it has really beneficial stretches for legs.I have knee problem so by strenghtening the hamstring, there will be less stress on knee cartillage! Thank you Adriene🥰
Thank you Adriene. I had a lower back injury last year and this video has given me such relief. I’m also doing the dedicate 30 days for a second time. Your channel has changed my health for the better. Thank you so much. Please send my love to Benji also.
I am doing my Yoga Teacher Training at the moment and this video is gold.
A video without Benji and some time ago ;-) Namaste!!
Thank you! You really understand beginners with tight hamstrings - thank you for explaining the adjustments I can make and where I should feel it stretching, rather than only showing the perfect pose!
Training for my first half-marathon, and this was exactly what I needed. So used to lifting weights, running is KILLING my knees and hamstrings. Thank you Adriene!
I love your videos for so many reasons! First of all this particular one felt so amazing - just 20 minutes and my body feels almost brand new! Second of all, i really appreciate how you make sure we don't feel like we should look a certain way, and that our different levels are respected. And thirdly, you clearly really enjoy what you're doing and have a lot of fun with it - no need to be perfect.
This video is super helpful for me. I'm a complete newb and new to yoga, and my hamstrings have always been super tight - even since I was young I was never able to touch my toes.
I love how easy you make and how you throw in what new people might experience and ways to make it work for you. In the past I've been reluctant to do videos or join lessons because everyone else is better and I sometimes feel like there's a prerequisite level of flexibility needed.
Your videos make it easy for me to understand, follow, know what I'm feeling for, and understand why and how and what.
111111111/10 thank you
I play sand volleyball 4x a week - yoga and volleyball are both huge passions of mine! But I found in my personal yoga practice that nothing was quite releasing my hamstrings - and they have been SO tight from volleyball as of late!! I finally found that release today and feel like I can walk again (haha) after doing this video! Thank you so much (,:
This video made me realize that a lot of the pain I suffer from comes from not supporting myself on my heels but in other. Parts of the foot instead. Its been eye opening in my process of healing my body. Thank you Adrienne
This routine helped my decrease the pain of my hamstring injury!!! This video is perfect for those with a hamstring injury
Ooh yes Adriene, I’m thinking this is for all those cyclists and runners in my family ( just achieved greatness in the Edinburgh Marathon 👍🏻) and for me too. This senior yogi doesn’t think much about hamstrings and this was proved by all my shaking and wobbling in my practice but it was fun and afterwards my legs can still feel their workout. Soooo good, must repeat ! See you tomorrow on the mat, nearing the end of OPEN ! 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💞
I reaaaally have to do this often ! My hamstrings are so tense, especially my calves, this part of my body is absolutely not flexible ! And as I'm a runner, my legs are more unflexible than ever. Thank you Adriene, it's so good to see you again :) Namaste !
This video has helped me grow my ham-strengths significantly. Thanks Adriene!
Love coming back to older videos to find they still help with key areas
I revisited this particular yoga exercise once again, this time for recovery. You see I run (really it's just a jog for I am not fast at all) and my DNA doesn't really support this activity. My left hamstring has been mildly complaining for a couple of weeks. When is starts yelling at me I usually slow my pace even to a walk if I have to. Well I decided to do sprints yesterday. My first sprint was slow, the next sprint I sped it up... feeling pretty good I kept at it. On the fifth sprint I decided to slow it down a little and lengthen my stride to stretch my hamstrings. Thanks to Adriene, I have checklists for all my exercises. :) Well as my left leg reached out midway through this cycle, my leg buckled and I went tumbling on the roadway. Ugh... this is like my 6th or 7th fall in my running life. My right knee is scraped up and my right wrist is a little sore. As to the hamstring, I think the injury is actually in the gluteus maximus...maybe it where the hamstring connects or joins the gluteus maximus at the sit-bones (Hey Adriene! :)
This yoga exercise was for me today awesome today. I couldn't stretch my left leg as far as my right and I certainly gave total respect to my injury, I certainly didn't want to worsen it's condition.I actually feel better afterwards. Now onto the wrist exercise. Be careful out there people. Much love to all.
196/365 of 2021✅ I started going for walks (6km) everyday to complement yoga with some cardio, so my legs enjoyed this practice very very much . Thanks Adriene. Thanks everyone 🙏
Now this is one of my favorite YWA practices, cause recently I've dicovered that my body just loves deep stretching, so thank you and the crew for this beautifully designed sequence!💟🌱
I never thought I would find this so difficult. I tried twice and ended up not completing. And I have been doing YWA for past 8 months. A humbling reminder that life on the mat is continually a learning experience
Currently in France hiking, this has saved my life as I’m so stiff after hard walks in very warm temperatures. I love that I’m still discovering helpful videos in your archives ❤
I did this last night and it really worked. I'd just started doing pilates three days ago. On the first and second days I was crying at how hard the workouts were, especially since i can't keep my legs straight and shaking all the time. It was so frustrating. But after doing this last night, this morning's workout was surprisingly easier than before. I can straighten my legs better, the shaking minimized. Thank you. You're an angel.
Love that I laughed out loud with you ("I can't wait until I get Hamstrinks")! Laughter Yoga is the best!
Really nice! I was feeling tight in my hamstrings so I'll be working on them with these exercises. Namaste!!!
It's so rainy here today, so free rain-sounds and fresh air as I do this practice :-)
Thank you for this practice, Adriene! Namasté
I was searching for days to find some stretches for *real beginners* - the way you do and explain these exercises is sooo great, since you don't make your viewers feel that they are not "able enough" to do this stuff right...
*Thanks a lot for that!!!*
How did you know I really needed this stretch class? It was wonderful. Thank you.
I needed this so much!! After overworking my legs few days ago this really helped to loosen up all the muscles and tendons- you brought light into all those dark spaces!!
SayItHowIWould Yesssssss!
love the video! You always make me laugh too which I love! Some yoga videos are so serious - which is great too sometimes - but I like having fun while I do yoga since I am so new to it, so I really appreciate your sense of humour! Thanks for all your hard work!!
A great stretch at bedtime! Thank you Adriene xx
I love this one. I've done it a few times and my legs always feel great afterward!
I love when you remind ys to smile in the practices! Thank you!
Been doing this for two months at least 2x a week. While I become more flexible in the body, I do so too with the mind. Grateful for you Adrienne, youre an angel
Young Adriene... you rock! As always, helpful and entertaining! I love your little moments of joyful oopsies... you bring laughter when you share your guidance. Feeling better. Thank you xxx❤
Bless your beautiful soul🥲 I have fibromyalgia and I can’t describe the pain.. all your videos are my literal salvation 🥹✨❤️
Adriene, thank you so much! I have been having terrible back pain, and had almost resigned it to "just getting old." Then a friend shared Yoga Camp with me. I feel so much better! Better than I have in years. I can't thank you enough for helping me learn how to safely move and heal my body.
I practiced his video in 2023 still really really helpful and releasing tension in my hams
Also I really enjoy your older views as well as the new ones love you Adrian❤
Thanks to India for giving the wonderful yoga and Pranayama to the world. It has been an integral part of Indian hindu culture for thousands of years.
Walked 24 km definitely needed this today 🙌
Adriene, you are so fun! And I appreciate the block behind the hamstring technique-thanks.
Great session, Adriene~!!!! Thank you so much! We hope your mother is well~!!!
Thanks, Adriene. Once again your video hits the mark for me. I will be back again and again for this one. My runner legs truly need this stretching! You're amazing!
You are the amazing one! Practice and enJOY! Namaste
Day 7 of PROCESS!!! I'm finally caught up from the 4th of July weekend! I can't wait to see what tomorrow's video will bring! (Though I'm being it'll be intense if the title is anything to go by hahaha!)
Thank you for your videos!! I have back problems and your hamstring, hip, and low back videos have helped me so much !!
To close the eyes in tree pose: feels like making a concious effort to focus more on the feelings of the standing foot (and less on the drishti) makes the transition easier. Not easy, but easier.
Happy 6th year anniversary on this video Adriene!
I have really tight hamstrings and I will continue to come back to this. Thank you for your gentle playful process. 💗🙏🏼
This felt especially good today. Wow, my hamstrings are really, really tight. I only recently realized just how tight. I've done this video many times before but, today, there was new awareness. Good awareness. I'm going to try to do this one, at least, once a week in the new year. Along with my other daily sequences. Happy New Year, YogaWithAdriene family!
This video make me happy yoga and my body proporsional. Bye my Scoliosis.Thanks Andriene 🙏🥰
My hammies are quite flexible but your advise to be kind is so wise - after all my hammies are connected and those other parts aren't necessarily so flexible! Thank you Adriene xx Namaste 💟💟
I shouldn't have worried about the discomfort in my hammies and quads after all the Zumba and walking. All I needed was a daily dose of Adrienne! Forever grateful!
I've been suffering with what I think is a torn hamstring for at least 3 months. I rested it and it never got better. After 3 months of getting intense pain in my right buttock running all the way down to my calf, I elevated my leg whilst I got my motorbike tested for 30 minutes and found I could move my leg with less pain briefly, but woke up still struggling to put my socks on the next morning. I thought I had done the tear from stretching too far on a cold muscle, but then realised that resting hadn't fixed it, and that I had to stretch to fix it. I then remembered that my stretching routine had started with Yoga with Adriene videos, and so I looked up this video specifically. I have found such vast improvements from following doing this exercise routine every day. I sometimes do it twice, or I do this, and then a different video for sciatica, etc. I now know it in my head, so I can go outside and do it too! It's making a massive positive difference to my life, it was getting so frustrating after months with no improvements and consistent chronic and shooting pain. Thank you Adriene! I'll keep myself dedicated, with my improved movement and quality of life as motivation!
Thank you very much, for not only teaching is yoga, but as well for being real while doing it. Your lessons and personality are always a pleasure.
I swear, yoga is the answer to most of my questions, getting rid of my all my body's annoying weaknesses! Thank you, Adriene!
