This link will take you to the page where the trailer can be viewed; from here you can buy the program too. Let's see if we can crash Vimeo's servers!

Now available on the Stretch Therapy website as part of the Stretch Therapy Mastery Course.

This the thread to discuss everything to do with this program.

The PDF, showing end positions and giving the key Cues, can be downloaded here:

[Kit_L]

Please advise if there are any problems with the download, too. Cheers, and please wait until tomorrow to tell friends about this. We will be publicising on FB and YT tomorrow, too.

[mlaen]

Had to stay up until it was released, time for bed now No problems with the purchase/download!

[Andrew Mann]

Woops. Sorry for the FB like. I wasn't thinking!! It's now unliked.....until tomorrow lol

[[DW]]

Yeeee'hah!

[Richard Hamilton]

This is excellent! I watched the lot and it's time for bed now! Image and sound quality is fantastic. Thanks to you all for putting this together, I'll be working through it tomorrow

[Kit_L]

We sorted out a lot of production problems as we went along; the later programs are even better in this regard. Only the people involved can understand the huge amount of work involved. So far, the income is exactly $33! I would have done them anyway; as a body of knowledge, this does not exist anywhere else and we needed it.

[Anders]

Thanks Kit! I just bought a copy. Is the download episode by episode or is there a way to download everything (88 mins) in one file?

[Kit_L]

@ Anders: I honestly don't know the answer to that.

Five mins later: we just tested: once you pay, all eps become downloadable, and they don't expire, after you "Buy all". So download them as you want them. And finding an exercises or function is much easier organised this way, too (otherwise you'd have to scrub though 88 mins of video).

"Buy all" enables the downloading of all eps., and it looks as though that's the way Vimeo set it up (and we uploaded episode by episode, too). Should help Vimeo's back end, too (less chance of crashing the servers, I would think)

There appears to be a bug (or it's a "design feature!) that any "Watch Now" buttons alongside a ep. only plays the trailer, not the episode. This might be hard-wired into their back end; I will check and report back when I know.

... okay, i just want to say, Blessings to the international dateline. i thought this was going to be released on wednesday and its still tuesday in PR !!!!

#timetraveler

[Kit_L]

That cracked me up, but it's a potential problem, too. Clearly we will need to keep this special price for 48 hours, not 24. OK; now I know, and that's what I will do. Thanks for letting me know.

[Craig]

sorry in advance to everyone who has to watch me be inappropriately manipulated by Kit

[Keilani Gutierrez]

oh, i have absolutely no issue with it, i just thought it was the biggest surprise that i forgot about the internaional dateline. you all are in the future. like pioneers. do you think this is what has allowed you to advance stretching to the level you have?

[Anders]

Keilani, I think you got it. Kit et al are stretching masters from the future living in the present, sharing their wisdom with insight. It all makes sense now. And thank you, Kit :-)

[MT Nordic]

Super, and I agree, a nice surprise a day early for us in the western hemisphere! Thanks for all the work it took for you and your crew, Kit. Cheers,

[Sol Amarpreet]

Bought it. Looking for your future work and spreading it as bst as I can

[Sol Amarpreet]

Kit should I do these on the day I do my Foundation Single Leg Squat work for best benefit or how so? ANd what about the forum where we discuss programming. Thanks

[Adurst]

Congrats...I'll wait to buy...so you can have my full $10...you deserve it

[Kit_L]

@ Sol:

ANd what about the forum where we discuss programming. Thanks

See first post above:

"This is the thread to discuss everything to do with this program."

[agmemon10]

As a whole, I think this is great. I tried some of the moves, and the benefits of the stretches definitely extend beyond just being able to squat. Video is great -- the multiple angles really help. Many of the moves, I've never seen or even heard of

If we want to get really anal-retentive about it, then at some points the audio goes a little "soft", but you can still definitely hear what is being said. Overall, this product is, IMO, leaps and bounds ahead of any other program I've purchased online. And as far as stretching programs go -- well, there really is no competition. Really fantastic work guys

I would have done them anyway; as a body of knowledge, this does not exist anywhere else and we needed it.

Thanks Kit; that's why we all love you so much

[mtruelove]

Purchased!

Brilliant stuff as usual.

[terje]

This is great stuff Kit, really well made.

The beginning position of the L3 boxing the compass stretch seems to pinpoint the problem I have with my hips that I spoke of in the butterfly stretch thread a couple of weeks ago. In the beginning position of the L3 I feel all the restriction in my hips laterally, not in the adductors, but in the abductors or rotators. Is this common? Any tips on that?

BTW I feel something similar in the standing knee lift when I try to lift the knee out as much as I can.

[Tris]

sorry in advance to everyone who has to watch me be inappropriately manipulated by Kit

"sorry"? You mean "you're welcome"?

Is the download episode by episode or is there a way to download everything (88 mins) in one file?

I don't think Vimeo lets you download a "series" in one hit unfortunately.

I set up a directory on my HD and individually saved each episode into it. I then manually gave each episode a rolling number so the folder displays each file in the order of the series:

[JoachimG]

Beat me too it Tris, I was gonna recommend the same. This is absolutely magnificent, can't wait to buy it and go through it later at hime. How long will the entire sequence take, was it 1,5 hours?
