Customer Rating:      Summary: too fast paced, not for beginners Comment: I wanted to increase my flexibility since I have not practiced for some time. I found this fast pace not helpful since, you hardly get enought time to go deeply into any stretch before starting the next one. I was just trying to keep up the whole time, my form was aweful, and I did not feel like I got a very good stretch.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good combination of challenge and stretching/relaxation Comment: Good for when I need some stress relief but don't want a completely easy and only relaxing practice. This DVD is challenging and quick, as it is power yoga after all, but yet at the same time it allows you to really work on your flexibility and calm your nervous system.
I enjoyed it very much, and must say that I felt AWESOME afterwards. I had been stressed prior, and I was happy-go-lucky and feeling great by the time this workout was over. It wasn't as challenging as his other two short power yoga workouts (Stamina and Strength) but I very much enjoyed it and will make it a regular in my practice. And I did notice my muscles were weak afterwards even though I didn't think it was super hard, so I think that's good! If you aren't flexible at all, however, you might want to start with an easier workout before trying this one.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Rodney Yee Flexibility DVD Comment: This is a nicely done 25 minute all around yoga practice dvd done in the vinyasa style and is suitable for students who have had some yoga instruction or are beginning/intermediate.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great for beginners Comment: This is a very well made DVD. The setting is beautiful and the demeanor of the instructor is very pleasing. However, with the Title "Power Yoga" I purchased it with the expectation it was a more advanced yoga workout. Actually it is for beginners. Although the poses are basic, the transitions from pose to pose are quick and I found it to be frustrating to follow since I prefer advanced poses being held for a longer period of time.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Workout! Comment: I have many yoga dvds, but this one is my favorite. Its the only practice that I have no problem doing over and over again. It's nice and short, but still challenging. I have been working on my flexibility for years, but with this work out i really feel more flexible.
