Very good DVD for beginnersNov 16, 2008
Pro:
- cheap way to try yoga (much cheaper that classes). You just need the DVD, a mat (I bought it at a sport store for 25$), 2-3 pillows or blanckets.
- 10 routines; 15 minutes the shortests, 45 minutes the longest, you don't need to spent 2 hours as you have to when you take a class outside.
- No pre-scheduled classes. You can do it any time of the day. At your own pace (I do it when I wake up in the morning)
- Benefits:
If you do it after you wake up in the morning, you just start the day in a more "positive" state of mind.
You can feel your back posture improves. You will naturally put more attention on your posture day time.
You feel a more flexible body, less sense of "heavy legs" or "thight muscles" or similar.
My lower back pain I had before starting yoga, is gone. (I work in front of a computer 8 hours or more a day...)
Cons:
- yeah, sometimes the "voice" talks too much but... remember, is a beginner DVD: better too many words (explaining what you are doing, how to do it, words of caution...) then too few words
- A real good teacher corrects your mistakes better during the exercises
How I use it:
In the morning I run the "wake up the spine" routine (35 mins) or "get up and go" (15 minutes), depending how much time I have. Almost every day.
In the evening:
Mainly the "Good night sleep", rarely the "unwind muscles tension". (both around 20 mins). Every other evening(more or less).
Yes, it will be the first thing I'll suggest to someone that tells me... "I have some back pain bothering me"
Excellent yoga routineNov 02, 2008
This is an excellent yoga DVD. The teacher demonstrates the poses well and is thorough with her instructions. I like the format of the DVD - it has many different routines with varying lengths and difficulty. This is definitely a great DVD for beginners. Also, each pose has its own track so if there's one you want to skip, it's easy to do so. Overall, I highly recommend this DVD!
 Calming way to get into YogaSep 29, 2008
It is an amazing and calming way to start and finish my day. The section with the Dalai Lama is wonderful!!!!
Yoga for the Sign of the Times!Sep 13, 2008
I would actualy recommend this dvd for the person on the go... the professional that travels, the stay home mom, the college student... why? Because there are plenty of short segments to choose from AND it's not just a work out it can be spiritualy moving as well. This dvd is a quick inspiration that releases your body and opens your heart and mind. TAMARA'S YOGA FUSION
For Day & NightAug 29, 2008
I purchased this and Yoga Beginners earlier this year and it was a very worthwhile purchase. This DVD has alot of routines:
AM Routines
Get Up and Go
Sun Salutation Centering
Breath Work
Gentle Wake Up
Extended Morning
Wake Up the Spine
PM Routines
Short Rest
Breath Work
Unwinding Muscle Tension
Good Nights Sleep
Energizing Evening
The AM routines are more "energetic" while the PM routines tend towards more relaxation, as one would expect, though I will use routines at different times during the day, the Short Rest is great for when I need a break.
Barbara is a great teacher and between the DVDs I have gotten I am progressing in my yoga practice.
