Customer Rating:      Summary: Good for Sciatica Comment: I first borrowed this DVD from my local library and I had to wait b/c it was on hold. The fact that I waited as long as I did to try this out was proof that it was popular and guess why, IT WORKS! I bought the DVD b/c I didn't want to have to wait for it to become available again at the library. I've been suffering from sciatica for about 2 months, and Rodney Yee's DVDs are about the only thing that I have done that has yielded such fast & painless results. He REALLY helped me. I am still on the mend, but I feel MUCH BETTER after I do this sequence. It is very gentle and do-able for someone who is still in a bit of discomfort and trying to heal. The first two segments are comparatively more active, the third is mostly relaxing postures (btw, you will need a giant bolster or pillow for max comfort/effect). Its about an hour long, so I only get to it once or twice a week, I guess I could just do one of the 3 - 20 minute segments, but I tend to opt for a quick morning stretch with the AM yoga sessions (either his "AM & PM yoga" or "AM yoga for your week"). It's hard not like Rodney Yee - he's so mellow and easy to follow. You do have to figure out the breathing most of the time b/c he kinda assumes you know when to inhale & when to exhale so it might be confusing for a beginner, but other than that, I love his work! I plan to incorporate Rodney Yee into my day for a very long time - even after I am all healed up!

Customer Rating:      Summary: Not as easy on the back as I had hoped. Comment: I love Rodney Yee. I have many many of his videos, from A.M. and P.M. Yoga with Patricia Walden to his Yoga Burn video....with some Flow Series in between. But I don't have all the props needed for this video..perhaps if i had a Yoga Bolster I would give it a higher review. So this may be my problem versus anything Rodney Yee did. My back hurt afterwards. Maybe I was using muscles that don't get used often enough. For whatever reason, I was a bit displeased and haven't used it since.
I recommend buying all the props that are required for the video.
I will probably eventually buy a bolster and try this video again.
I love Rodney Yee and will keep buying his videos. The man is 50 or was last year....and is extremely hot, but even more than that he has a pleasant voice, good cuing, and is thorough with his instructions. He is also very very experienced and he really knows what he is doing.
Rodney Yee and Patrica Walden make up for most of my yoga DVD collection...and they are better than other videos I have tried with the exception of "Yoga conditioning for Weight Loss" by Suzanne Deason. Her video is very high quality also. I'm not very good with words, but what I am trying to say is that I put Suzanne Deason in the same category with Rodney Yee and Patricia Walden.
I have an extensive DVD collection. And I highly recommend any video done by Yee, Walden, or Deason.
Namaste,

Customer Rating:      Summary: Back Care Yoga Comment: Back Care Yoga by Rodney Yee.... We started with the AM yoga by Rodney Yee and have found it helpful in control FM pain and wanted something more challenging with some back help. We have been doing the AM yoga three mornings a week and the Back Care twice a week and find it helpful. I do not think we could have started doing the Back Care more often than this and we feel we have found a good balance with this regiment. We are a group of retired women that are using these Yoga exercises and so far we have not done the PM Yoga as it seems we do not have trouble relaxing and feel these two videos have helped with relaxation. Thanks for good products and excellent service. Doris
Customer Rating:      Summary: Encouraging Comment: I like Rodney Yee so when I developed back pain I ordered this DVD. For my specific problem there are a few too many poses that aggravate my spine, but if you just want to strenghthen and build up your back, I think it is ideal. There is also a section of Rodney and an MD talking about caring for one's back on a daily basis-like how to sit in a chair properly. Good solid advice. There is a section of "restorative" poses that relax the tired back. You will need a bolster pillow and a blanket you can fold under you. Even though I am not ready to do all the postures, it still has encouraging advice and some good yoga practice.
