Yoga For Beginners

I am getting back into shape and doing wlaking, jogging some carido and other things.

Added Yoga to the mix becuase I tried it once awhile ago and never got back to a class.

This DVD has helped me start on the yoga workouts. Good instruction and I like it.

I am new to yoga and really enjoy this DVD. Easy to understand and follow with instruction at a pace I could do, plus reassurances and details which helped alot as I got better at yoga. Extremely well done DVD.

This is an excellent DVD for the beginner. And, just because it says beginner doesn't mean it should be TOO easy! Yoga SHOULD be about challenge. Challenge of the mind, body and spirit. If there was no challenge, how could you learn anything. I would recommend this dvd to any new student. We always have choices of what postures we can and seriously cannot do. TAMARA'S YOGA FUSION

I had taken some yoga classes at the gym before but sometimes it was too challenging. Barbara takes you through a good pace with room for progression, so this DVD can last you a long time before moving on to something more advanced. The poses are challenging but not impossible, making me feel motivated to keep using this DVD. I like how you can choose the workouts to last from 20-70 minutes, so I can choose which one to do depending on how much time I have. You can target your exercises for specific parts of your body, like hamstrings, or choose a type of workout like the energizing one or quiet evening one. This was a well designed beginners program. No excessive distracting comments, no embarassing looking poses that you wouldn't want to do in front of other people, tips on checking your posture, etc. I would highly recommend this -- no wonder it's the best selling yoga DVD on Amazon.

I rotate among several beginning yoga classes and several DVDs/tapes, and I like Benagh's Yoga for Beginners best. I especially recommend this DVD if you intend to exercise before work. She has a soothing voice, the ocean views are lovely, and the degree of difficulty is appropriate. She also is the most articulate of the instructors I've experienced--she explains details of body position that others overlook, yet she seems to speak relatively little -- you really can get absorbed in the practice.
