Great video! July 28, 2010 tipton7 I love this video because you get good, deep stretches as well as cardio in one workout. If you have never done yoga, the instructions are clear enough for you to follow and one of the instructors does modified versions of each exercise. If you have done lots of yoga, you will still get a good workout.
Awesome-sweaty-slimming! June 26, 2010 Amazonian (west chester, pa United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Love this video. I have defined my arms and abs especially. I workout with it at least 2-3 days a week. Everytime I use it, im engaged and focused. The switching between standing poses(slow burn) and cardio moving makes it so that it is strenth and cardio.
I would rate this as a intermediate to high intermediate level yoga(but not advanced). When first did this video I had to use modfications(showing in video) or break at certain points, but dont get discouraged. I think that after 2 weeks, I was pushing through and feelng good.
Another reviewer gave this a 1 star because it wasnt a mind/body style. To that I would argue that any yoga is mind/body. Its your time with your body, breath, and your strength in building your power. This happens to be a slimming class which is moving, not still meditation. I wouldnt punish the video for being what it is. If you want meditation, this isnt for you. If you want strength and definition and weightloss- this is your video. Good luck. Namaste.
I was hoping for more June 4, 2010 S. Kang I bought a special from the actual Yogaworks studio in Orange County. I was hoping to find a similar routine I can do at home, so I decided to buy this dvd. It's easier than the level 1 classes I have done at Yogaworks studio, but it's not bad. But I wish it was a little more challenging. I use to feel sore after the actual studio workouts, but I don't feel that way after this dvd. However, I add this dvd to my workouts once in a while to give it more variety.
The best routine I have found! May 18, 2010 Dominique R. Scalia I love this video. I did it initially through my cable company's on-demand service, and as soon as it was over I immediately got on Amazon and ordered the DVD. I do this almost every day now and it is fantastic! Cardio has always been difficult for me to stick with, but with this routine I am so focused on my breath and alignment that I barely notice the physical exertion until I'm finished and covered with sweat. Probably not ideal for someone who is very new to yoga, as you move through poses very quickly during the cardio sequences. But, for someone with a bit of experience with the basic poses, this is a fantastic work-out.
Will not center you as real yoga does May 4, 2010 joderboder (Colorado) 6 out of 14 found this review helpful
This is yoga as a workout, not yoga as a mind, body & soul centering practice. She alternates between cardio, using vinyasa flow moves, then switches to stretching poses. It is not appropriate if you are aiming for the process that calms the mind, aligns the body and enlightens the soul. Her voice is in a mode of a cheerleader, of a 'you can do it' actor. She elongates a word every few, like streeeetttch it out, reeeeaaaach it up. It gets annoying. Her voice is also very FAR from a calming, soothing meditation voice of many yoga masters. The meditation phase was a joke. There are very little hatha yoga stretches in here as well.
Choose this dvd if you want a work out that involves stretching. Do not choose it if you think you will get the full benefits of yoga. I give her credit, she knows the sanskrit words for each move and she does match the breathing with the move. But I do yoga 7 days a week for a different reason. This dvd will never be played again.
