yoga-conditioning for weight loss.......2007-11-25

The worst buy ever... even a 90 year old granny can do better than what is shown.. unbelievable rubbish, this DVD is a waste of time and money full of blabla and silly slow music and ridiculous backgrounds... forget it

One of the Best.......2007-04-27

I've got a few yoga DVDs, and this is one I go back to all the time.

Don't know about you, but I'm not terribly fit, or a stick, and that was one of the reasons I got this DVD over others. One of the best things about it is that there are four levels of workout, which one can work through depending on flexibility/ fitness/ how you feel that day. This makes it a fitness DVD with great potential to grow with you as you improve. Plus there are additional tips you can access to improve your practice throughout the DVD.

Suzanne Deason is a very good instructor, she talks through the postures with care and attention, but without being annoying or doing that terrible 'look at me and how supple and fit I am' thing that many fitness DVDs do. Nor is it simply an excuse to wear pretty yoga clothes and look at the scenery as so many are. It's practical and achievable, focusing on mind-body connection to bring well-being as as much as fitness, which is very important for those of us who see gyms, aerobics and treadmills as mechanical processes which don't help us to want to get fit. This is a practice you will want to do, because of the sense of relaxation and being in the body which it leaves one with.

Great for beginners and intermediate.......2006-08-01

This DVD shows you 4 difficulty levels so you are able to use it from absolute beginner to intermediate. I found the routine challenging at first, but not so difficult that I didn't continue. Moving from the full modifications to the other levels can make a big difference in how challenging the program is for you.

I enjoy Suzanne Deason as an instructor, she's easy to listen too and not at all annoying.

Great dvd!

Good, but... .......2006-07-07

In pure yoga terms, this is the best programme I've seen. It is 'yoga' based rather than 'exercise' based, and pays due heed to the mind/body aspect of yoga. If I have reservations, they are a) the DVD offers only one program, where others offer two or three, so boredom isn't a problem, and b) there's a slight break in the recording in one section on my DVD, which obviously spoils concentration.

For those new to the practice of yoga, this is an excellent introduction. Suzanne Deason's delivery is quiet and understated. She doesn't draw attention to herself the way other presenters do, which means you find yourself concentrating on the yoga itself, rather than any idiosyncrasies she might display.

fantastic. Try it out!.......2006-03-07

This DVD is one of my favorite. It was the first yoga practice I brought. You can choose between four different levels of workout. The full practice is done by Susan Deason herself (she is really very supple. I hope that when I have practiced for as many years as her I am half as good) and the basic level is done by another lady who modifies the poses so basically that it is suitable for all to do and still recieve great benefits. The other two levels just fit in between and are modified accordingly. I should like to point out that the only 'skinny' one is Susan herself. The other ladies doing the practice have 'problem areas' and/ or tight hips etc proving that we all start somewhere and can still be profficient at this activity even if we are not as tucked in as much as we would like.

I think that this practice would be good for anyone, not just those who wish to loose weight. Begginers would find it very useful.
