Customer Reviews
OK for complete beginners, but infuriatingly slow
For the complete beginner, this DVD is good for a while. However, after a few workouts, it feels infuriatingly slow. Once you know the set up for each pose, it is annoying having to go through it each time you use the DVD. I would not recommend this DVD if you're already familiar with the basics of Yoga, or if you're looking for something a bit more motivating.
annoying
If you find happy cheery patronising americans annoying; do not buy this DVD. i have not even managed to go throught the entire DVD once as the woman is so annoying.
OK for beginners
I bought this as an alternative workout to my Pilates Workout for Dummies (which is excellent), which is why I put this in the category of being simply OK. As a beginning you require your trainer to explain the position and the motion of the breathing before you assemble into a pose and not during set-up and this is the biggest downside for me; starting out your barely able to hold the poses and at this point she is still yet to advise what you are to do!
All in all this is not a bad DVD, but the pace is slow and I do not find this is not a recurring workout to engage in on the basis of the direction and excessive talking.
I am in the process of looking for a new yoga DVD that I can use day-to-day, any suggestions?
