Summary: Powerful Hour and More!
Comment: I am very excited to finally be able to take Sadie's amazing yoga classes with me where ever I go. She is the very best kind of yoga teacher: one that combines clear, direct instruction with a powerful, centering flow practice and at the same time brings to the program a grace, gentleness and spiritual grounding that exemplifies what yoga is all about: balance, strength, and love.
As someone who has bought a bunch of yoga DVD's over the years, and practiced with innumerable teachers, I can honestly say that I think Sadie, and this DVD, is the best of the best. For me personally, the best yoga practice is one where I can combine aspects of a meditation/centering practice with a good, old-fashioned workout.
What makes Sadie's DVD--and her approach to yoga--special, is that even though she makes you work hard--building fire and fierceness (as she would say)--she doesn't forget the essential purpose of yoga: to get centered, grounded, and peaceful. With this DVD, I can bring the joy and sweat of an in-person session with Sadie to my hotel room, my friend's house...everywhere! Yeah, Sadie, you rock!
Oh...and to the woman who was having difficulty with finding the different short cuts on the DVD, make sure you learn how to use your DVD remote/buttons properly before you give up on the DVD. I've struggled a bit with other yoga DVD's in the same way, but found that it was usually my ineptitude with the remote/DVD player that was the problem, not the yoga. Sometimes DVD players are the culprit!

Summary: Smooth and Graceful
Comment: Taking Sadie's classes in New York is one of my key tools in navigating a very high pressure life. What I have always appreciated about her teachings is her cool blend of physiological athleticism and grace in presentation. This DVD is the next best thing to being there. Sadie's elegant combinations of poses and movements are in a format that is smooth and easy to follow. I feel like I get a great workout and as at the last OM in her classes, you feel a sense of accomplishment and a strong belief in your own ability to move through, beyond and conquer anything.

Summary: abysmal
Comment: had high hopes for this after reading the reviews but massively disappointed.Couldn't access any of the 20 min sections just mat work & against the wall.E mailed Sadie re this got no reply.There is hardly any instruction about what you;re supposed to be doing & i found myself craning my neck to see.would return it but i live in the uk & would cost more to send back.

Summary: Wake Up Call
Comment: This is a great dvd to wake up to in the morning --better than coffee (and I love a latte!). Its segments make it the perfect practice before work. On weekdays I practice the mat sequence, which is really effective at strengthening and toning core and limbs. On weekends I attempt the wall poses, which are challenging. Sadie is very encouraging, and with her positive approach and insightful experience, I've been able to advance far. A really great way to start the day and make home practice a habit.

Summary: Enjoyable practice, right amount of challenge
Comment: I bought this DVD after waching the free videos accessible through Sadies website. I've been practicing yoga from dvd's for just over a year. This dvd gives me everything I want from my practice- poses that are challenging but do-able (still breathing but definitely feeling like your getting a workout), narrators voice is easy to listen to (doesnt become annoying after 10 or more times watching). I used the beginners commentary the first time and found the advice useful. I'll be honest and say that I'm pretty comfortable with the first 40 minutes but I have to work up a little courage for the wall section- but I'm confident I'll get there in the end and Im happy there's something here that pushes the boundaries a bit more! I have been trying to convince my less yoga minded family to give this a go because I think they'd enjoy it without getting bored. Well worth the money- i feel fitter and stronger.

You'll feel a whole body transformation in just one hour with this top New York City Instructor's revolutionary approach to the poses! Using your core strength as part of every posture, as you move and flow around this stable center generates heat, burns tons of calories, and gives you more strength, length, and tone in much less time than many other styles. Try it, and sculpt yourself into the next, greatest version of yourself, body mind and heart by doing more...from your Core!
