A.M. Yoga for Beginners
"The morning is a precious time," says the narrator of A.M. Yoga for Beginners. "Just as the sun rises and falls, so do our natural rhythms. The morning is perfect time to open our bodies and center our minds." This 20-minute yoga practice with supple instructor Rodney Yee is the perfect way to start your day by energizing your body and calming your mind. Filmed on the beach at Maui at sunrise, the video starts with a 4-minute Conscious Relaxation focusing on breathing, then glides into a 14-minute series of yoga poses that are simultaneously relaxing and energizing. It ends with a 2-minute seated Guided Meditation to center your body and mind. Yee's instruction is detailed and gentle. The video is beautifully filmed: you watch the waves roll in as Yee demonstrates yoga poses on a sandy beach. The yoga practice awakens and stretches your muscles gently, leaving you balanced and focused. "Yoga is the foundation of my day," says Yee. "A few minutes in the morning will help give meaning to your day." --Joan Price P.M. Yoga for Beginners
"The evening is the perfect time to calmly transition between being active and being quiet," says Patricia Walden, instructor of P.M. Yoga for Beginners. "One of the greatest gifts yoga has to offer is deep relaxation." This 20-minute program is designed to balance, calm, and revitalize you at the end of the day. It starts with centering poses: gentle stretches bringing awareness and quiet to your senses. Next are standing poses to release tension, increase circulation, expand the lungs, and help you breathe more deeply. Next, forward bends cool the body and bring quiet to the nervous system. The final restorative poses are so relaxing that you may fall asleep. Walden tells you not only how to do the poses, but what you should feel, and how to quiet your body and your mind. Instruction is soothing and explicit. Although this video is aimed at beginners, seldom are modifications given for the less flexible novice, so if any pose causes discomfort or seems impossible, don't push beyond your personal comfort level. The video was filmed on the windswept sands of Death Valley. --Joan Price |

Any one can do this! |

The am yoga portion of the dvd is the best way I have found to start my day. It really loosens up the back, legs, and hips! At the same time, it helps relieve stress and worry. A peacefulness follows that lasts long after the workout. Thank you, Rodney Yee and everyone who helped make it! I've been doing this for a long time and hope to continue for a long time to come! |

Writing in English, Instruction in French - Can't Return It! |
|
I had to open this dvd (cover in English) and select play on a menu written in English to find out that ALL of the verbal instructions were being given in French. Now that I've opened it, I can't return it per Americancivilwar policy! I'm sure it's a good dvd and would love to find out but I'm not willing to take the risk of buying another one at full price when it could be as useless as the first. I don't speak the French language. (By the way, it's not anything that can be changed on the menu - my only option was to select French subtitles!) I think I deserve a refund. |

Good short yoga videos |
|
These videos are great for exactly what they say they are, AM and PM yoga. If you're too busy to do a full hour yoga video these videos are great because you will actually do them. I often have the intention of doing one of my Bryan Kest Power Yoga videos but by the end of the day feel too worn out. You won't get a great work out from AM PM yoga like the Power Yoga videos but they will make you feel a lot better than just watching TV before you go to bed. |
