Thanks to Dana Brown's delightful Step Into Liquid, the surfing scene in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, should get a healthy boost. That's because Brown, in the tradition of his father, filmmaker Bruce Brown (The Endless Summer), has captured dazzling images of surfers riding curls in some of the world's most exotic--and sometimes unlikely--places. Besides the action on Lake Michigan, Brown leads us to Costa Rica, where the sport's senior elite (including Summer star Robert August) prove they still have the moves, and Oahu's North Shore, where the legendary Pipeline inspires this quote: "It's so scary, maybe you die a little." Most entertaining is a segment in County Donegal, where the American Malloy brothers startle the locals and meet their Irish counterparts on the grayest... Learn More

After wreaking havoc on my body playing rugby (followed by a long and sedentary period of recuperation!) I found myself a few pounds too heavy, itching to get off the couch, and looking for a solid, low-impact way to get back in shape. A bit of reading up and asking around led me to a choice of either yoga or pilates. Most other forms of activity were stamped with a big no no from my physical therapist.
I'll have to admit, I wasn't expecting much. Highly skeptical is a good way to put it. I've usually been more of a fan of the high-impact adrenaline-laden competitive sport sort of fitness. Any form of "mat stuff" just seemed boring. Fifteen dollars a class was just out of the question (and slightly ridiculous) so I started looking into DVDs and books. I tried yoga, but I found...

Finally the long awaited updated Fat Free Yoga! And it was worth the wait. It will take me awhile before I can do the entire DVD. Right now I just do one of the four 20 minute sets and it is enough. I am hoping it will help me drop the 15 pounds that my doctor has recomended that I loose.
I have just been diagnosed with pre-diabetes and needed to start an exercise program. This DVD seems to be the right one.
I am so happy I found Ravi & Ana and am on Amazon right now to buy their Beginners and Beyond DVD. More Info About This DVD Director(s): Ana Brett - Ravi Singh DVD Release Date: Released the 20 September 2005 Usually ships in 1 to 2 weeks

As in other reviews, we've tried a number of other videos and DVD's on dance lessons. We found this one particulary helpful as it shows a good balance between the leaders and followers part. We took 6 private lessons before we found this DVD and thought this was a better value. We are looking for more advanced videos now.

If you have only read "The Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson and want to see and know more about the fair you will be happy with this documentary. If you have read many books about the fair and taken advantage of all the resources at the Paul V. Galvin Library Digital History Collection online you may find yourself wanting more.
The focus of this documentary was mostly a tour of the fair. In recent books on the fair there seems to be either a "horray for progress/wasn't the fair pretty?" or a "damn American imperialism, racism, and sexism" route. The tone of this documentary was neutral/celebratory as it largely omitted discussion of racism and sexism (with only a few passing mentions). There were photos I hadn't seen before, and the narration (Gene Wilder) was...

I'm a retired fellow and took up Salsa dancing because it was supposed to be the new Ballroom-what all the young ladies like to do these days. But I wanted to look like I could dance without having to put in all the years of formal training or paying for a bunch of classes. I'm a pretty quick study so this DVD was ideal for me. I'm no Fred Astaire but I think I'll handle myself pretty well on the Salsa dance floor once I get there.

"Thanks for changing my life! It all began a few weeks ago when my girlfriend showed me this DVD.
When my husband is out of town on business I often stay with my girlfriend and her husband. A few weeks ago while there on an overnight visit, her husband was also out of town so my girlfriend and I got into some girl-talk. After a few glasses of wine she said she wanted to show me a DVD that one of her girlfriend had shown her. When I wondered aloud as to whether it really worked, she said, "You better believe it does!" When I then said, "You mean your husband has done this to you?" She said, "No, he doesn't know anything about this yet, my girlfriend did me. It was the best orgasm I've ever had. They call it "doing" and I'm telling you it really works." I couldn't believe...
