So I use Essentrics/CS and T-Tapp for posture work (and I know what you think of T-Tapp, and Teresa), BUT I follow a chiropractor on YouTube who, in addition to being some lovely eyecandy, has some posture work:

I love this idea. I keep telling myself that I need to do some type of posture work daily. I try, but don't always succeed. I have all my posture routines of differing lengths on word documents. I rotate through them depending on how much time I have. Whenever I find a good one that I like, I add it to the list.
Oh, and I love CS/Essentrics. I've been trying to do at least one routine every day. This from a book written by a former model. She was a model back in the 1950's or so. "Someone once told me to stand as if I wore a beautiful jewel that I wanted to show off at my bosom, and I think perhaps it is the best advice that I can pass on to you." Quote:
The Adam Fields channel looks interesting. Thanks for sharing. Here are some of my shortest posture moves/routines - all under 8 minutes, I believe. 3-Minute Killer Back Toning Workout | POP Pilates Song Challenge! 5 MIN ARMS & UPPER BACK | BETTER POSTURE NOW!| Michelle Wilson 5 Min IMPROVE YOUR POSTURE | Daily Exercises + No Equipment 5 Minute Toned Arm WORKOUT For Women Over 50 - No Equipment 5 min Yoga for Shoulder Flexibility and Pain Relief 7 MIN Waist Thinners | Essentrics Chest Opener - Best exercise for improving round shoulders Hold your arms up in a “V” shape, either sitting or standing, press back with arms (not arching your back), pull shoulder blades together. Hold your arms in a “W” shape- elbows bent and palms facing forward, either sitting or standing, press back with arms (not arching your back), pull shoulder blades together. Pretty much anything by Lee Holden/Qi Gong - especially his short routines in the 30-Day Challenge! Day 3 in the 30-Day Challenge is one that I made a note of, as well as: Qigong For Energy and Vitality Lee Holden in Yosemite 2016 Improve Posture, Stretch Your Spine, Breathe Better!

Negin, etc. - Thanks for the suggestions! I'll check them out.
Jessica Smith has a "Posture Walk" on one of her DVDs. Also, a YouTube routine: Posture Correction Exercises I like Janice Novak's DVD and book. Here are some low-res clips: Posture, Get It Straight! Demeris - you'd be surprised at how many T-Tapp videos I own! I like her walking workouts. Some of her moves and instructions are good. Others hurt my back and I avoid them. I've tried CS/Essentrics a few times. I didn't like them. Even more boring than Pilates. I saw an Oprah show many years ago about posture. They secretly filmed the studio audience waiting to see the show. Then, after the guest presented posture tips, they filmed them again. It was stunning how better posture made many of them look younger (and slimmer!).
