Power Yoga - Flexibility

I got this one based on others recommendations. I did not like it at the beginning because I am beginner and I am not familiar with the yoga jargons. This workout is very fast pace. If I looked at the TV, I did not have enough time to follow him. I got frustrated and only did a couple poses then gave it up. I picked it up after a few month I read a post saying I had to preview this dvd and get familiar with the flows then do it. This time I really enjoy it. After I finished all the routine first time, I felt really nice stretch and relax in my body. I felt sore in the next few days. Now I try to do it every day. I can see my flexibility increase.

The title for Beginner might sound misleading. But even you are a beginner, if you preview it you will be able to follow it and get a very nice workout from it.

I would give this dvd a A

I bought this dvd because Rodney Yee is so highly recommended by others...even this dvd comes with praise by most viewers. However, this dvd is for "beginners" and doesn't come with any instruction about the poses or any "teaching" section. Rodney begins quickly and the dvd is very fast-paced---as if the viewer is a yoga expert and the routine a basic one. I would appreciate the workout if there was a preview section of the poses...or if Rodney would simply tell us what is coming up next. Not good for beginners.

I have several Rodney Yee DVDs and this is one of my favorites. I am 52 years old and, although I have always exercised and been active, I have never been very flexible. This one is perfect for warming up your body and challenging it just enough so that you safely increase your flexiblility. I have been doing yoga videos for over 4 years starting with Rodney's AM/PM. I have recommended Rodney's " Back Care Yoga" to my contemporaries as a good starting video and am now recommending this one as the next step. I love his calm voice, the serene locations and (with this one expecially) the relaxing meditative endings.
