 Good start to the day March 11, 2010
Gene C. Curtiss Jr. (minot, nd USA)
I was looking for just a little something to get the day started. This fits the bill. For me the challenge is enough for the early morning and with 5 different sessions it keeps things fresh enough for the whole week.
A Little Bit Challenging, Feel-Good Yoga February 24, 2010
Ann Marie Lombardo (USA)
Solid set of yoga routines, each concentrating on one specific area or purpose. Rodney Yee sets a pace that is just right, and constantly reminds one to breathe.
 Not for me. February 19, 2010

I've been practicing yoga on and off for about five years now, and have used some of Rodney Yee's DVD's before. I just didn't care for this one. I didn't like the Grand Canyon setting, I didn't really like the music, and in my opinion, the stretches and poses were a little intense for a "right-out-of-bed" workout. It left me feeling stiff instead of limber and relaxed, and it was more difficult than I thought it would be. This is probably my fault for not going with something labeled BEGINNER or GENTLE POSES, but be ye warned: if you're looking for a gentler, more meditative start to the day, this is probably not for you.
Best purchase I have made in years February 18, 2010
CATHY Eckers (Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin)
I'm almost 54 and it seems everything is going to heck on my body causing me a lot of pain. I have been doing it every weekday morning for five months. I can't believe how much better I feel from doing this video. Mr. Yee's video is also great because his verbal instructions are such that you don't have to watch it much to follow along. I would highly recommend this.
Awesome -- Compliments Core Cross Train January 28, 2010

This is my hands-down favorite DVD, but it does have one flaw. Fortunately, I've just found Yoga - Core Cross Train, which addresses the missing element of "AM Yoga for Your Week."
AM Yoga contains five short workouts (around 25 minutes) suitable to do at home in the morning before you go to work. This is the only reliable time I have to exercise, and I simply don't have time for a 60 to 90 minute workout. Each of the five workouts focuses on one aspect of flexiblity, and each contains a secondary emphasis on strength using isometric exercises. The first is standing poses (for overall flexibility and balance), the second is forward bends (flexbility in your hamstrings and back), the third is for flexibility in the hips, the fourth is backbends to open your shoulders & upper back & chest, and the fifth is twists (looser movement).
Taken together, these five workouts are almost (oh-so-close) to being ballanced. But after doing these AM Yoga workouts most mornings for about 6-months (yes, really!), I noticed that while most of my body felt better and more flexible, my upper back still felt relatively tense and inflexible and often tense by the end of the day. Intermediate workouts (e.g., focusing on the plow or headstand) focus on the right area, but there is a large jump in flexibility from AM Yoga to a headstand. The missing element is present in Yoga - Core Cross Train. I highly recommend getting that DVD to compliment this one.
