Some great teachers, buggy app

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).

I love Glo!

Glo is amazing! I have a yoga studio membership and I will not renew it and just stick to Glo. I’m so glad I found this app. I’ve been enjoying the lectures, yoga classes, mindfulness. I’ve tried yoga international and alo moves but Glo is different. It has more variety, more yoga classes that I like. I find myself finishing all the classes I start vs in alo and YI where I found myself changing mid-classes and can’t find classes that I like. The lectures by Annie Carpenter are gold. I like a lot of the yoga teachers already and I haven’t even tried all of them yet! I am very excited about this and how I can use it at home, when I go camping/ on vacation.

Thank you so much for creating this app and offering so much! I will be a long-term member for sure! And thank you for the 2 month free trial. It’s been amazing experience!

I love glo

grat app for high quality yoga classes (I recomend Kia Miller)

Great content, but tech is glitchy and it’s a bit expensive.

I love Glo and have used it off and on since 2015. It is one of the few platforms that gives the feel of a real yoga class. I love how expansive the content has become— it has meditation, qigong, pilates and more. I don’t think I would have tried these different exercises if not for Glo.

There are some issues with the service— the cost is prohibitively high (I really wish they offered student discounts) and it can be hard to afford consistently. I know you can save a bit subscribing for the whole year, but it’s still a bit too high for many people’s budgets.

I’ve also noticed that my account is not updated across platforms. For example, if I do a yoga class on the Roku app, it is not recognized in the Glo app on my phone. This isn’t a deal breaker, but it’s kind of annoying, because it’s hard to keep track of reaching my practice goals.

Essential to my life

I’ve been subscribing to Glo for nearly ten years I think , I cancelled once trying to save money but missed it too much! A huge range of classes and instructors, of incredibly high quality. For me, living in the sticks and having an unpredictable work schedule, getting to a live yoga class is difficult, and Glo gets me doing yoga most days . I really love it , and it works for me . If you are motivated and dedicated, I think the classes are as good as real life classes, without the risk of making a huge effort then being disappointed because you don’t like the class / teacher / etc.
In summary, an amazing resource, pricey but so worth it. Keep going Glo I love you !

12 years of awesomeness

I have been using Glo for 12 years now. The quality of teachers/ practice and responsiveness of the platform to evolving and introducing new content keep me dedicated. I have gone on to further my YT qualifications with some of these awesome humans and developed a integral Pilates practice as a result of the diverse options here. Bottom line - it continues to be excellent value for the quality and variety. Stay super Glo!

Nourishment anytime anywhere

Glo has been my place of nourishment when everything else fell away! My favourite teacher is Felicia Tomasko (yoga). I love her groundedness and presence. I would love to see some new content from her ;)

I haven’t gone back into a class since I started using Glo. (About 3years ago) I love that I can focus on me and practice in my own time.

Thank you!!!

Dishonest

I’m a yogi and I was really disappointed. Glo made it really easy to subscribe and really opaque to unsubscribe. This is dishonest. I subscribed thru my phone. But when the trial period ended there was no notification for charging me. And to unsubscribe I had to access glo thru a browser. There was no way within the app to discontinue. No receipt email to locate your instructions. I found the info to unsubscribe on Reddit. Thumbs down.
