Easy to navigate. Great app

### 5/5 — Daily Habit

*2026-07-30, version 10.200.2*

Classical Stretch leave me feeling energized and at the same time calm. There is no comparison. I highly recommend trying this- it is great for all ages. I am 64 and have been doing these exercises for the past 20 years- i feel great when i do them- uptight when I miss one.

### 3/5 — So-so

*2026-07-29, version 10.200.2*

I wish it kept track of your workouts and shared data with Apple Watch.

### 5/5 — I use the platform and I’m able to do a different workout every day to suit my needs… Love, Love !!

### 5/5 — You Will Feel Amazing!

*2026-07-29, version 10.200.2*

I love these workouts. I mostly do classical stretch. Every time they make you feel good. Plus my quads are so strong from tai chi pliés. It gets rid of any aches or stiffness!

### 5/5 — Diane DeCastro lavender fields

*2026-07-22, version 10.200.2*

I am six years into using your training videos and in January 2026 I discovered a workout with Diane deCastro in the lavender fields and I can’t stop doing this workout and I recently discovered that my hip pain is gone. I struggled with hip pain for two years and Dianne’s video eliminated it. I love love love her video and I hope that by writing this review, somebody can send this information to her.
Sign me, still A Fan from Florida!

### 5/5 — Life saver

*2026-07-22, version 10.200.2*

I discovered eccentrics two years ago. I was a very bad car accident and wasn’t able to do simple tasks, now I’m a whole new person. I tell everybody I meet about eccentrics. I’m 61 years old and I’m in the best shape I’ve been in years many many years.

### 5/5 — Freedom to exercise anywhere!

*2026-07-19, version 10.200.2*

So happy to have the Essentrics app! Makes it easy to do my workouts in any room of the house and on vacation!

### 4/5 — Excellent!

*2026-07-18*

Très bons exercices à faire le matin! Pour bien commencer notre journée  ! Il y en a une variété de tutoriels.

### 5/5 — Self care at home

*2026-07-17, version 10.200.2*

I started doing the Essentrics program with Classical Stretch on PBS almost 8 years ago, but finding the streaming service really increased the motivation and enjoyment of my exercise program; I have more variety to choose from and can tailor the workout to the time available. I especially like the series for the different ages and I loved choosing from the other decades to see if I can keep up!
Stress relief and flexibility have been the 2 most notable benefits for me, and I really appreciate both!

### 5/5 — Justine

*2026-07-11, version 10.200.2*

Start slow and easy, practice daily and be amazed. The Essentrics method is my go to program for overall mobility. As I age and increase the variety of sports and recreational activities I do, this program supports me and enables me to enjoy these things without fear of hurting myself. 
As a professional I endorse this method and encourage my clients to adopt a daily practice.

### 5/5 — My Go-to for workouts

*2026-07-09, version 10.200.2*

I absolutely love how I feel on this exercise program! It leaves you feeling energized, not drained, moves lymph, works every muscle in your body, improves posture, strength, and mobility. I’m always telling my friends about it. Just hoping they put together a Conditioning for Equestrians routine because it is so needed. ;)

### 5/5 — Inspiring and it works!!!

*2026-07-09, version 10.200.2*

I started Essentrics at age 70, I am currently at the 6 month mark. I have gained 1 inch back in height, yes that’s right and we checked and double checked. One full inch. I love listening to Miranda, she explains everything and she inspires me. Dedicate a little time each day for you and your well being, you will see and feel the difference.

### 5/5 — Best monthly payment I make

*2026-07-08*

I have followed classical stretch for over over 15 years, attended one of Miranda’s clinics and have been streaming since it was available. Plans were to drop it when home and only use when traveling but as it turns out I stream all year long, doing an Essentrics video or two several times a week especially when I have an issue on one part of an aging body (73). My husband has thrown his back out several times and bemoaned not being able to play golf. Putting him on an Essentrics back regime had him back on the links in days rather than weeks. I have turned several women golfers on to your back help, one of whom lives in Canada in the summer and found a class to attend.
So with this dedicated use of your program you can imagine my excitement when the email today announced the new program with some live classes. Cheers to you all for helping us through this difficult period for our countries and the world! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Workouts!

*2026-07-06*

I was introduced to Essentrics by a friend who had a client near 80, owing her health and vibrancy to Essentrics back in 2013. I thought, being 47 that if she can be feeling great in her 80s, I can as well! I immediately bought Miranda’s book- Aging Backwards 🇨🇦 and then started purchasing some of her DVDs. I did not have access to the PBS channel in my province. I started slowly and did various levels over the years. With ETV it has made it so much simpler to be engaged and consistent with my stretching and I can do them daily knowing I can choose the length, level, type, and instructor very quickly! I am enjoying the LIVE classes and the Challenges! 

I even convinced my friend, who first told me about her client (but never did Essentrics herself!!!)to do Essentrics and sign up for ETV - now we do the classes together most days via FaceTime as she lives in BC and I live in Ontario!!! We absolutely love being motivated together while doing our stretches!! 
Love all the instructors-of course I have my favorites 😉and exercises!! 
Thank you! 
Merci!! 
♥️♥️🇨🇦♥️♥️

### 5/5 — I actually look forward to working out every day!!

*2026-07-06, version 10.200.2*

Been a member since Oct! I love it so much! Hardly ever miss a day. Something I can actually stick to without risking hurting myself etc. I feel taller, definitely better posture and more toned. An idea - it would be so fun if the app could give us a quarterly report. Like this is how many classes you took, your favorite class this Q, how many minutes you worked out, compared to last Q etc. just an idea. Oura ring sends a quarterly review of all your health data - it’s fun to try to get higher scores each semester etc. maybe there is already a way to find this within the app. Grateful for this program!!

### 5/5 — Review

*2026-07-01, version 10.200.2*

I’m 79 and do one of the Essentic workouts first thing every day.  
Keeps me moving!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-06-30, version 10.200.2*

Love essentrics and my day isn’t complete without it.

### 5/5 — System and Workouts

*2026-06-30, version 10.200.2*

This is more than you think. I had done Chi Gong before and experienced the surprising perspiration when you don’t feel like you’re taxing your body yet here comes a sweat. This isn’t going to cause a sweat like a walk on a hot day or a jog but
What it does is generate heat and energy. I’ve just finished the second week and the perspiration kicked in after a few workouts the more I figured out about recruiting the muscles. When I finish a session I do feel energized and calm, not spent. If you’ve done Tai Chi, Chi Gong, or Pilates, you know what I mean. This also takes just enough concentration to pull my mind out of what might worry me and that is part of these effects, I think.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very difficult to cancel subscription

*2025-10-25, version 9.303.1*

the exercise program is great but nearly impossible to cancel subscription. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS APP!!

### 1/5 — Worst app EVER

*2025-08-27, version 9.100.1*

You pay a subscription and CANNOT access it. Highway robbery. That’s what it is

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2025-08-12, version 9.100.1*

I cannot find how to cancel my subscription. They have you going from one format to another with no help whatsoever!   Furious.

### 1/5 — Difficult to cancel

*2025-05-21, version 9.100.1*

The videos are great, but when you decide you wanna cancel, you can’t do it on the app and I can’t figure out how to do it online. I am very frustrated.

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2025-04-02, version 8.801.1*

I cannot find how to cancel my subscription. They have you going from one format to another with no help whatsoever!   Furious.

### 1/5 — Something is wrong

*2025-03-12, version 8.801.1*

I paid for one month of the app and got the two weeks trial free for a total of six weeks. But, I got an automatic renewal just past the two week time period. So I basically missed out of four weeks on a paid subscription. I can’t find any way to submit my question outside of a review. Dang it.

### 1/5 — Poorly set up hard to use app

*2025-01-30, version 8.801.1*

While classes themselves are clearly helpful… The site itself is very un user-friendly and poorly organized. I was interested in back pain relief videos. First, I searched under back pain. It brought up 100 or so videos with back pain mixed in with all the others so you had to search class by class . Finally, I found a 10 day class with Miranda, but there were only four days available AND with no indication of the order of the days !! So I'm paying for this site and I get four of the 10 days and the only way to know which day is where is to start the video and hear it announced verbally. 

Sooo I started searching for customer service and there is no email, phone number, chat or anything to give them any feedback or to request help that I could find. To me all of this is pretty surprising and falls far short of what I would expect for a service like this.

### 1/5 — Be careful of customer service

*2024-12-30, version 8.801.1*

Miranda is excellent, however not all the videos are same quality. However, beware the customer service. Sage, at Customer Service phone line, says you were billed incorrectly and will fix it and carefully confirms your email & phone, yet never contacts you back. Vimeo, per website email, never reads your emails, but constantly responds from overseas with repetitive, nonhelpful messages which ignore your questions. Canadian taxes have skyrocketed. A big mess.

### 2/5 — What happened to all the different teachers?

*2026-06-15, version 10.200.2*

I feel like it’s just mainly Alexa, Sarah and Ellen. What happened to Lauren, Julia  and Jenny and even Gail I haven’t seen for a long time

### 2/5 — Hassle

*2025-11-08, version 9.303.1*

Frustrated you cannot manage your account from the app.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-08-27*

I do Essentrics every morning. Loving the app and how it’s organized all the programs and workouts.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-08-16*

J’adore!

### 5/5 — Such a great program for any age!

*2026-08-13*

I have been doing this program since before I retired in 2017! It is the only program that I could consistently work with. Very few pieces of equipment; I don’t even get dressed before doing my daily routine! Some weeks are better than others as far as my consistency but I always aim for 5 workouts a week. I am now 71 and participate in other physical activities; mainly horseback riding which requires strength, flexibility and stamina. I ALWAYS feel refreshed after even the simplest 23 workout with Essentrics! Just love the program!!

### 5/5 — Everyone should be doing these exercises

*2026-08-11, version 10.200.2*

My wife and I found the Aging Backwards program a couple of years ago on PBS. We ordered the DVD collection and signed up for the Essentrics TV membership shortly afterwards. It has been a game changer for both of us. We have much better flexibility than we did before starting the program and our fitness has improved significantly. Among my peers, I feel like I am years younger in ability and mobility. We tell everyone about the program and hope that they follow through but to our dismay most don’t. Anyone can do this and should do this. These routines literally turn back the clock and stave of the inevitable stiffness and weakness of aging. I am 70 and feel like I have the flexibility and strength I had in my 50’s again. You have to stick with it but the rewards are worth the time and effort.

### 5/5 — Love Essentrics

*2026-08-11, version 10.200.2*

It’s the best fit for me and I have done many exercise programs in my 75 years. I love that it doesn’t involve expensive equipment or a big time commitment. I feel Miranda is an expert in her field and her philosophy is sound. Exercise every day to try to keep in shape and use the entire body to keep it balanced and flexible. Thank you!!! I’m so happy I found your program. I plan to keep doing it as long as possible!! I recommend it to everyone that I can!  I’m adding to my review.  I’m now 78 and still try to do it every day and still skiing black and double black diamonds and I love this program.  I know that it has worked for me.  Thank you.  I saw Miranda on PBS and I’m so glad I did! 👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2026-08-10, version 10.200.2*

Lat year I was paralyzed with chronic pain arthritis with no inflammation. My 74 year old body was frozen. After seeing Essentrics on PBS, I bought a subscription and have done a workout (sometimes two!) every day for 12 months. My pain is gone and my mobility is improved beyond where it was before I was struck with the arthritis. I am totally grateful for this technique which I wish everyone my age would do. Miranda is a perfect mentor to anyone over 65, and her teaching and encouragement is like a gift each day. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Traded yoga for this

*2026-08-08, version 10.200.2*

I love this program. It’s helping me heal from chronic neck and shoulder pain. This workout is an essential part of my daily routine. I use to practice yoga but this has taken its place and I find it’s so much more rewarding. Thank you. I would like to know more about becoming a teacher of this.

### 5/5 — Essentrics Stream
