Yoga For Every Body (With Over 35 Routines)

I'm a yoga beginner and this is the second DVD I've used. I like the really clear instruction. I'm new to yoga and not that flexible yet., but there is lots on this DVD that I can do now, and a lot more that I will work my up to. Definitely worth the price. This one will last me a long time.

I have attended class with a very thorough teacher so I found this very easy to follow, having had that experience. Nothing substitutes a good teacher, but this comes close. Pleasant background music.

I gave up on yoga when I couldn't work a class into my schedule on a regular basis. I've bought a few DVDs and this is the first one I've stuck with. I can find a workout no matter how much time I have to put in that day, or what I feel like. There's so much to choose from. This isn't the standard 2-4 routines of 30 minutes. It's good instruction and a great home practice yoga video

I used the 'beginner' section. Still moved too fast without explanation for moves. Teacher's voice I found to have a rather annoying timbre.
The exercises didn't really seem to flow smoothly. I didn't like the apparent structure of the different levels. It appears that each exercise was individually taped, then, depending on the level of exercise,the pre-taped exercises were shuffled around and inserted. Basically they were all the same exercises only pared and chopped and repositioned.
It appeared to me that the 'close-ups' of some moves could have been videotaped in a way that didn't feature the demonstrators crotch. I found some of those shots to be very unpleasing to view.

I wouldn't have bought this DVD had I been able to preview it. It really wasn't what I was looking for. I still prefer the Rodney Yee Yoga series the best. They are shot in nicer venues with pretty scenery. The music is much more conducive to the exercise of yoga for me. The explanations and flow is much more enjoyable in the Rodney Yee series than this one. Yoga for everybody seemed like it shot by the same people that make health films for high school.

If you only purchase one Yoga DVD, this is the one to buy. No matter what mood you're in, or how you're feeling physically, there is a workout for you on this DVD. There are workouts to wake you up and workouts to relax you. There are workouts to boost your mood and to de-stress...and they work! The menu includes the title of each workout, the purpose, the skill level and the length. Whether you have 15 minutes or 75 minutes, whether you are a beginner or expert, you will find what you are looking for. A must own for any yogi!
