DVD Power Yoga - Total Body Workout
Power yoga "demands your attention," says instructor Rodney Yee. He leads a challenging, constantly progressing series of poses, one flowing into the next, integrating breath, movement, tension, and relaxation. The poses include Sun Salutation, standing poses, forward bends, back bends, twists, and arm balances. The first poses are fairly easy, and with each repetition of the series, Yee adds on more difficult movements, extending the series without pausing. You're encouraged to do as much of the series that fits your level, up to the entire 65-minute workout if you're an experienced yoga practitioner. Although you can begin at any level, some familiarity with yoga is recommended. The Hawaiian setting is gorgeous and inspiring. This is an excellent yoga workout that you can grow with, adding on more as you get stronger. --Joan Price
Many people wrote great reviews, I can only add that there are no chapters in the menu, but you can FFw by chapter during play. The music was too classical music music (mostly piano) for my taste. I found his teaching to be well done & the poses held at a moderate pace, not too long to get bored, but not to short that you have to move on to the next move before you even complete the pose.

The effect of Power Yoga on your body is amazing!
Prior to this DVD, my only exposure to Yoga was Rodney Yee's AM Yoga DVD which was good for calming the mind and relaxation but I needed something more. I've been using this DVD for about 3 weeks and I've already seen amazing results. Specifically, I have seen the following improvements:
1) Flexibility - Very much improved. Jump right out of bed in the morning with no tightness or creaking muscles.
2) Strength - I'm amazed at how you strenghten your core, chest, shoulders, back and legs. I have only been to the gym once in 3 weeks but my muscle tone has improved. This workout strenghtens EVERY part of your body.
3) Focus and Concentration - The poses in this DVD, especially Warrior 2, test your ability to focus and concentrate. I have definitely improved in this area by doing the poses.
4) Posture - Allows you to achieve and maintain a proper posture
5) Breathing - This workout improves breathing ability and really makes you feel great after a workout.
6) Improves recovery time after playing sports
7) Releases anxiety and tension
After seeing these benefits after only 3 weeks, I imagine that I will continue working out to this DVD well into the future. I strongly encourage you to buy this DVD! You'll love the results!
Yoga for Strength
Combining the ancient with the modern, instructor Rodney Yee aims to give a total body workout with this through and calming yoga program. This is a good one. There was variety which is welcome. The floor work was different by moving from one stretch to another rather quickly but it makes you feel loosened up, strengthened and relaxed.I would encourage everyone to add this to their collection as it would actually be a good DVD to take on holiday or on a travel.
Anyone wanting to get in shape like the stars need go no further than Bryan Kest's home-video workouts. Kest teaches wildly popular yoga classes in Santa Monica, California--so popular that stars like Rhea Perlman, David Duchovny, and Elisabeth Shue willingly sweat alongside the hoi polloi in Kest's packed, ancient loft studio. If you don't happen to be in the neighborhood, not to worry: Kest's yoga videos are nearly as good as being there. Volume 1, Energize, is a beginner-level class that nonetheless is smartly designed to provide challenges for all levels of users. Kest's Jersey-boy voice at first seems in contrast to the serene environment and inner-peace objectives, but it gradually becomes soothing and hypnotic in its own right. Stretches and strengthening moves are... More Info about this DVD DVD Release Date: Released the 11 May 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

Comprehensive but user-friendly, reasonably challenging but accessible to a variety of levels, Yoga Shakti is inarguably one of the best yoga products on the market--no small achievement when one considers just how many of them there are. Instructor-creator Shiva Rea, a California-based yogi of considerable international renown, specializes in vinyasa yoga (a vinyasa is essentially a series of flowing, connected poses, incorporating breath and movement and cultivating heat, strength, flexibility, and balance). Four complete practices are presented, ranging in length from 42 to 85 minutes and including Basic Flow (for beginners), two more vigorous Solar Flow sequences, and a Lunar Flow sequence falling somewhere in the middle in terms of degree of difficulty; familiar...
