The best beginner yoga DVDMarch 30, 2009 Mark Twain(USA) 75 out of 75 found this review helpful
I purchased several yoga DVDs designed for beginners and/or inflexible people, and this one is by far the best. The pose section leads you through about 10 key poses, providing clear guidance on how to do them properly, and noting common mistakes. Going through this section a couple of times is very useful, and a good workout in and of itself. The additional two workout provided on the DVD are GREAT, and give you several options for voice-over narration--detailed instruction when you are still learning, more low-key or inspirational voice-overs once you've got it down. Get this DVD before getting any others.
When the title is accurateApril 21, 2009 C. J. White(Los Angeles) 24 out of 25 found this review helpful
This is one case in which the title does not mislead. If you don't have much background in yoga and need to have all the various postures explained in some detail, this is the DVD for you. Even if you do have some experience with yoga, they will take you back to the basics where you might need a little correction here and there. Also, on the disc Rodney Yee and his partner take you through the steps of two yoga workouts that will lead you in the end to a wonderful feeling of relaxation.
Exactly what I was looking forMay 9, 2009 K. Tarbrake(NY, USA) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I purchased 3 different "beginner" DVDs on Amazon to try. I am somewhat familiar with Yoga but haven't practiced it in years, and was never that advanced to begin with. I was worried that some of the DVD's would be too easy or too complicated for me. This was perfect. (Incidentally, the one I really didn't like was "Yoga for Every Body" which somehow managed to be both too easy (not challenging physically) and too complicated (using Hindu terminology and a lot of props) This DVD, on the other hand, was great becasue it was simple and straightforward, while being physically challenging at the same time (easy poses to customize to your level of fitness, too) I only wish it were longer. I will purchase more of the Gaiam DVDs with Rodney Yee
Rodney Yee's Yoga for BeginnersFebruary 3, 2009 Linda A. Abbott(CT USA) 27 out of 33 found this review helpful
Excellent program for beginners (and those of us over age 65). Relaxing format with good information. I will likely order more Yee tapes in the future.
Perfect for beginners!June 25, 2009 HRH, Queen of Anxiety(Worryworthing, Proper) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I love this video! The pose tutorial is wonderful, and you can tell that Rodney and Colleen want their students to do the poses properly so that they can get the full benefits of yoga. Both the practices can be done by beginners, but as with any and all forms of exercise, if you have an aliment such as arthritis, you should take care not to push yourself into something that may hurt you. If you are not really flexible, well then patient, common-sense use of this practice will get you there. After I did both of the practices, I felt renewed, balanced and firmly planted on the earth. I was really tired when I started, and by the time I completed the programs, I was able to take on the rest of the day with gusto!
Yoga rocks, and this is a rockin' way to start your practice! :O)
