Yoga Lovers in Benin thank Yoga Journal
This series is absolutely amazing! Challenging to say the least! Last summer I accepted a job in the Republic of Benin (where I currently reside), afraid I wouldn't be able to find a yoga class upon my arrival, I puchased the series as a "back-up" plan. Unfortunately, though there is a lot of interest in yoga here, there are no teachers. Hence, this series has no only increased my interest, practice and love of yoga, but has also exposed yoga to good number of my Beninese friends. Now, I only wish Yoga Journal would translate the tapes into French, as I still have difficulty translating the advice and guidance Patricia Walden gives while in upward bow!

Perfect for home use
I live in an area where live yoga instruction is hard to find. I attend class once weekly and do the videos during the week at home. Each video has at least two work-outs, so you will have lots of variety if you rotate the tapes into your routine...I'm trying to say that you won't be bored as you would if watching an exercise tape at home day after day.

The instruction is clear and the poses are filmed from a couple of angles to help with clarity. I still recommend attending a class at least once a week so you can have your poses checked and corrected, if necessary.

I am getting away from aerobic type exercise and doing more yoga; I never thought I'd stay in shape through these slow concentrated movements, but you really do get an excellent workout and I normally feel much more challenged during a yoga session that I would in a gym. And I do break a sweat.

Every pose is shown in beginners modification. Be sure to view the tapes once before performing otherwise you will find yourself rewinding and pausing and interrupting a good yoga session.

Enjoy.!

Well put together, and excellent value for the money
For beginners through to intermediate yoga practitioners, these tapes offer clear instruction plus challenge. They are Iyengar based,and very precise. I like the fact that the tapes often have two workouts on them, offering me good value for my money. The tapes offer everything from Flexibility, Meditation, Relaxation, Strength, Energy and Beginner instruction. Be sure to have lots of blankets and a long belt handy. This is by far the best yoga tape purchase I have ever made.

These videos are great for anyone, from beginners to experts
These videos are great for anyone, from beginners to experts! The insturction is easy to fallow and safe. Each tape teaches you how to modify the poses if you are not able to do them yet. The scenic backgrounds and calmimg music are a great addition! I would recommend these videos to anyone interested in Yoga practice.
