Product Description: "You don't need to be thin, young, and a contortionist to do this program," says instructor Peggy Cappy. Yoga for the Rest of Us is a yoga practice for people who might be inflexible, out of shape, or feeling aches and pains. Cappy presents three 20-minute routines that work separately or together. Part 1 is a series of warm-up seated stretches. Part 2 presents standing poses, holding a chair if needed. Part 3 is a flowing series of Sun Salutations, building stamina, and again using a chair if necessary, followed by relaxation. Public television yoga instructor Cappy teaches gently and quietly, accompanied by demonstrators of various ages and conditions. Recommended for people who thought that yoga was beyond them because of age, medical conditions, or fitness level, especially those with functional challenges, such as not being able to bend down or reach for a top shelf. --Joan Price

Customer Reviews
Finally a yoga I can do
If you are looking for challenging yoga with tough moves, this is not for you. I have back problems and am very inflexible. I've tried other "beginner" yoga dvd's and they were still too hard and did not explain the poses well.
Peggy Cappy's dvd goes through the moves at a good pace, she explains the moves perfectly and has variations if you can't bend or get into full positions. I felt great after the workout, my body was so relaxed and muscles got a good stretch. I plan on getting all her dvd's. Glad I found her on PBS channel.

Gave Me the Confidence to Begin Yoga
This is a wonderful tape for the older person, the beginner, or for those who are reluctant to begin Yoga. Watching the older people master the yoga moves is definitely a confidence builder for anyone. Start with this and move on to a more advanced program if you so desire.

All that it was advertised
Not being familar with yoga, the teacher (Peggy Cappy) on the tape was very clear and calm in her instruction which I liked. In fact I bought several more yoga tapes by her.

Yoga for the Rest of Us With Peggy Cappy
"Yoga for the Rest of Us with Peggy Cappy" is a total waste of money. It has very little content and is mostly about the author. I would not recommend this item to anyone. In fact Amazon should consider pulling the item from its files.

Great for beginners
This is a great video for beginners because it is easy to follow and her explanations of the poses are very clear. It shows with and without modifications. The only prop she uses is a chair.
