SIT AND BE FIT program is practical, effective and inspiring. It repeatedly
makes the point that our bodies are our most precious possession. It is highly
recommended.”–Walter M. Bortz II, M.D., Clinical Associate Professor of
Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine “Your SIT AND BE FIT videos
have brought the importance of exercise to the geriatric and less mobile
population with significant benefit. I can strongly endorse these videos.”–

“I accidentally came to discover the Sit and Be Fit exercise program and it
has proved to be one of the best things that has happened for my health and
well-being. I have been struggling with a debilitating neck and shoulder
injury for the past three years and after just a month-and-a-half of doing the
Sit and Be Fit exercises I have regained almost my full range of motion in my
right arm. I have also found that the rest of my body is getting stronger and
more flexible and that my posture has really improved. And, all those small
but annoying aches and pains are virtually gone.” –Mauilea P. “I discovered
your show 2 years ago. I want to tell you YOU ARE WONDERFUL. Your demeanor,
your hair, your cheerful smile every day. The exercises are just right for me.
Your constant admonitions to go only to your own range of motion so we don’t
feel bad if we can’t go as high as you. I love your show and it is helping me
to stay healthy and mobile. I tell all my friends about it. You are doing a
wonderful public service for us old and retired people who can’t get out much.
May God bless you. Keep up the good work.” –Mrs. Dorothy P. “I accidentally
