5 out of 5 stars Thank Goodness for Abby!   January 28, 2010

I got my DVD's just a few days ago, and I must say a HEAVYWEIGHT thanks to Abby. I used to do yoga when I was younger and loved the way it made me feel, more balanced and lighter. I have done 3 international moves and had 2 boys, not to mention my husband deployed to Afghanistan twice, and have put on a ton of weight in the last 8 years. I still wanted to get back into yoga. I tried a few videos and classes unsuccessfully because of my weight, I thought they were physically impossible... Abby proved me wrong! With something called the belly well Abby proved there is no excuse for not doing a pose. However this is no lightweight yoga. She really kicked my but on some of the poses, and I loved it!! Doing day two was easier and so on. The other thing that I love is the format of the DVD is so that you can custom build your class based on the amount of time and energy you have. She also shows modifications for people that have a hard time getting on the floor or cannot get there at all. Some of the reviews say that she is really chatty... well she is teaching something and goes into detail explaining it... once you have the moves down you could turn the sound off and turn on some music or better yet, pass the DVD on to a friend and help them start their yoga practice. I however wouldn't call her "chatty" I find her voice calming and encouraging. Thanks so much Abby for what you do... Namaste

5 out of 5 stars Great Yoga for larger sizes   September 25, 2009

The video is wonderful and very informative. I think this is a great yoga video for someone larger, less flexable and stiff.

This DVD had inspired me to get up off the couch and do something for myself. I am easing myself into it and am already noticing an increase in flexibility and well being. Thank you Abby for this wonderful and inspiring DVD. Keep them coming! Leslie, Walled Lake, Michigan


5 out of 5 stars surprisingly difficult for a....   March 25, 2009

The routines on this dvd are harder than ones on another yoga dvd for "normal sized" people at the beginner level! I just started doing yoga again after a break of 6 years, and I have been very sedentary during that time. This dvd kicks my butt! It's done by an instructor who is more than just plus size, so no matter how fat you think you are, the forms are demonstrated in a way that takes this into account. If I weren't in such poor shape, I would have a much easier time of it, so it will last me a while! It was a very good purchase!
