 Excellant And Effective February 24, 2010
L. Remondet
I had used some DVDs the during my first pregnancy, and though they were okay, sometimes they were a bit difficult and did not seem to be geared as much to help me. This time I purchased this one since it is designed to help with various issues.
It is extremely well thought out and taught, I never felt like I was moving too quickly or felt uncomfortable or unsafe and it really helps with issues such as bloating. There are exercises for all three trimesters with different models who are obviously in each trimester themselves.
I gave a friend of mine my copy when she started having back pain in her third trimester and she found it very helpful when she did the exercises. She was a bit unsure at first, but then was very appreciative. The set is basic, and there are props used to help maintain proper positions and support, though many of the things you have around the house anyway. The use of bolster pillows is also great and comfortable.
If you are looking for a hard core workout during your pregnancy, this is not for that. If you want to feel better, then it is is perfect, though there are some gentle general workouts also to use in addition to the ones for specific problems.
Nicely done.
 Didn't like this DVD February 3, 2010

I only used this twice during my pregnancy. First of all you need other equipment such as blocks and bands that don't come with the dvd. Second, it goes waaaay too slow, even for a preggo! The instructor isn't pregnant, which to me would have made more sense. I'd feel more like "Hey, she's pregnant and she can do this so I can too." I didn't like this dvd at all. But to be fair, I didn't really give it much of a chance. I preferred the Prenatal Pilates DVD's much more and used them frequently.
 I am watching the same DVD as these other people February 1, 2010

I ordered this DVD based on reviews by other people only to find that this is the worst possible DVD I have ever seen in my life. 6 minutes into the basic workout I had only done two poses. It isn't a routine either like most yoga workouts, it shows one pose for a few minutes and then ends that scene and goes to a completely different post. None of them flow together. One may be standing and the next one on the floor. I could not even believe what I was seeing. The next thing is that it's an older woman doing it. I was maybe expecting a pregnant person. The setting is horrible. It's in some estate looking home with a fire place and a baby grand piano in the background. I would not buy this dvd for any reason. You will get nothing out of it other than being totally bored. I don't see how anyone could make it through this dvd. Do not believe the other reviews or you will be totally disappointed unless you are looking for something to call a work out that is anything but that.
Big Disappointment January 17, 2010

I was soooooooooooooo disappointed with this DVD. I used Shiva Rea in my first pregnancy and thought I'd try something different. What a waste this was. There are excessive props needed as well as a good a amount of free wall space, which I don't have. The postitions do not change smoothly. Instead the film is edited to cut to a new pose in which the model person magicaly reappears in a totally different postition with a different mat angle and different props. This was just too cumbersome for me, especially as changing positions grows more difficult with my growing belly. I kept trying this DVD but would grow so irritated with the changing angles that I could never get through a whole practice set. Save your money, get the Shiva Rea DVD instead.
not for anyone who has any physical fitness or has practiced yoga December 19, 2009

This is perhaps the worst prenatal workout I have ever done. It seemed so promising but it is not for anyone who is looking to actually practice yoga.
I was unable to get through any of the workouts because I was so bored. I feel as if this would be a great workout for a woman in her late 90's who has decided to try yoga for the first time in her life. I have yet to find a good prenatal yoga workout dvd but two that are all OK are Crunch Yoga Mama & Prenatal Pilates with Lizbeth Garcia.
