Customer Rating:      Summary: Not a great gift Comment: It may be a good product but it did not go over well as a gift.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Yoga DVD Comment: This DVD is a great 30 minute workout. Advanced yoga poses in the middle of the workout that will take time achieving if beginner, but overall an excellent workout.
Customer Rating:      Summary: good yoga... Comment: bad music. I think the exercises would work great but the crappy new age music is a little bit annoying.
Customer Rating:      Summary: For beginners yes; but a great work-out Comment: This ends up being a quick 20-25 minute work-out. I do it in the morning before I head off to work because it's quick and relatively easy. I have used the AM and PM Yoga series as well and those are great too. This workout I find provides a great base for building and toning muscles in your arms. I do lift weights, and exercise regularly- including yoga. The day after doing this DVD, I always notice that my arms feel like they've been worked the same way they would be had I been lifting weights. That is a great news considering the additional benefits provided from yoga that you don't get from regular weight-training.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Power Yoga for Martial Artists Comment: I enjoy this DVD. I bought it some time ago at a Barnes and Noble, and have used occasionally. Then when I finally decided to fully lose weight and get back into martial arts (which I have done for about 13 years now) I needed something that would help with my conditioning. This dvd helps with that, I will go running and then come back and do the strength rountine every other day and then on the other days go for a bike ride and do the flexibility routine. It has since helped with both my overall body strength and flexibility and losing weight (I have now lost 40lbs since February 2007).
As a martial artist these routines are great for contributing to a whole body power that you need in sparring and general fitness. I was doing weightlifting as well, but I think that the Power Yoga is enough. Also I like the fact that these exercises are short (appx 20min for each) because I work full-time and go to school full-time.
I would recommend that if you are completely new to yoga, that you first attend a few classes in person first. This way you can get a hands on instruction so that you learn the postures properly. I have been to a few myself, and try to go to one or two every now and then.
