| Love ItI love how this shows me how to do things since I am not really flexible and I am new to yoga.
It has three sections that teach you the moves, including some that add extra assistance and changes to do them, plus ones with some less help, though which keep things in mind - that I am new to yoga and need to develop.
Then there are longer routines to put it together. The shorter routines to start I really appreciated, they were good time wise to learn without pushing too hard.
Great For BeginnersAs the title of this mentions, it is yoga for inflexible people, which is just what I was looking for. There are some poses that use things to help you, for instance there are two that use a chair for support if you want extra support or help when bending so you do not have to bend very far.
When you are getting better with things, you do not need to use the chair or other things and everything is pretty much around the house, such as books if you want to use yoga blocks.
She works you through with different poses to work on all parts of your body to really understand how yoga works with you and I am able to do more of the things easier after a couple of months of using this 2-4 times a week.
favabeanThis dvd is for real real beginners. It uses a chair for a lot of the poses. Not challenging at all.
Great Yoga DVDSomeone mentioned I should try yoga, but I was a bit unsure as to whether I would like yoga or be able to do it. A couple of classes had not been a good experience for me to understand what was going on or performing the poses. But I tried this DVD and it does exactly what the title says, teaches yoga to help those who are inflexible.
Clear guidance with modifications to start you off then adding more things later on. The use of the chair was helpful (though there was a typo on one selection on the menu, which is the only thing I found wrong.)
Maggie teaches well. After the first couple of routines I really felt good and felt I could learn yoga, which was something I was not sure of after taking a couple of classes locally.
Overall that makes for a great DVD.
Doesn't feel/sound like real yogaI have just started getting into yoga. As a beginner I thought this DVD would be great, especially considering the number of 5 star reviews raving about it here on Amazon. I have taken yoga class for a few weeks, a very beginner level just once a week and done 1 other Yoga DVD. That certainly does not make me a Yogi yet, but the other DVD and class have poses that look the same and explanations that are similar. This DVD was so strange!
Menu- The menu said with a chair, and after doing the routine, realized I never touched a chair.
Poses- The poses were slightly unclear in her description, and she uses different names than other videos. After doing a strange sideways half lunge, she then called it Warrior 2. It was nothing like Warrior 2!
All in all....I am very disappointed in this video and am going to hope to get rid of it.
Product DescriptionOne of the great gifts of yoga is improved flexibility. Research has shown that improving flexibility and doing yoga helps you feel younger, healthier and lead a more active life style.
The yoga postures developed thousands of years ago were not created for people who are already flexible, but rather to help inflexible people become more flexible. Yoga videos, even those designed for beginners, may be too difficult for some people that lack flexibility. Essential Yoga for Inflexible People helps anyone, no matter how inflexible, experience all of the amazing physical and mental benefits of yoga.
These proven & effective routines will help anyone increase flexibility and strength while developing a calm, serene mind. Proper form is emphasized through these slower paced, flowing routines. This stunning and beautiful DVD was shot at one of the most majestic, tranquil beaches in the world, Half-Moon Bay, Antigua!
Over 10, easy-to-follow customized routines allow you to progress at your own pace. This special, easy to use system allows you to find the routine that is just right for your needs.
