Summary: no longer intimidated by yoga
Comment: I rented this DVD from my library about a week ago. I'd always wanted to try yoga and although I'm in pretty good shape, I'm not that flexible so yoga intimidated me. Within 2 days of working with the DVD I knew that I had to buy my own copy off of Amazon! (BTW I just paid for regular shipping, but the DVD arrived in a day and a half. Nice!)
I loved the sheer variety of routines on this DVD. They are split up into two levels, "as you get started" and "as you progress". Only a week into it, I'm still finding the "as you get started" routines very challenging but not impossible. I think that there's enough on this DVD to keep me interested and learning new things for at least a year or two! If you're like me and you've never tried yoga, let me tell you that during the excercise you will work hard (like any good excercise) but after completing one of Barbara Benagh's yoga routines I find that my breathing is deep and slow, and feel like I've just had a full-body massage (QUITE unlike any excercise I've ever done!!!)
Her instructions are so clear that it's easy to follow along. She's challenging but very encouraging, making sure that you don't feel bad if you can't get into a particular pose, and offering you other easier options if you need them. She somehow offers lots of information while using very few words, this helps to keep her instrucions understandable to the novice.
I also want to add that I wanted to learn yoga without all of the "emptying your mind" new-agey type of stuff, and this DVD definately lets me accomplish that. I believe in freedom of religion and I don't look down on yogis who practice the way that they wish, and likewise as a Christian I felt that my beliefs were respected in this DVD. I just want to excercise, not change religions, and Yoga for Beginners allows me to do that.

Summary: Yoga For Me
Comment: I had tried a couple of classes but this was easier for me to learn with since I was able to learn at my own pace at home and review sections easily to work with them.
The instruction and the details that are provided realy helped me along in learning the poses and I am now feeling comfortable in doing the basic routines. I am starting to work through more of longer routines and making some progress. I am very satisfied in what I have learned so far.
The interview is very worthwhile to watch. It helped answer questions for me in getting a basic understanding of what to expect over time in using the DVD and in yoga in general. Barbara was able to make me, as a beginner, feel comfortable with her words.
Overall a very good DVD.

Summary: Good Part Of What I Am Doing
Comment: I am getting back into shape and doing wlaking, jogging some carido and other things.
Added Yoga to the mix becuase I tried it once awhile ago and never got back to a class.
This DVD has helped me start on the yoga workouts. Good instruction and I like it.
