5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Denise Austin Yoga Routine. One of her best yet!, January 20, 2008

This review is from: Denise Austin: Yoga Body Burn (DVD)

I love Denise Austin's routines. She is so upbeat and her workouts are fun! You should have some knowledge of yoga beforehand as this really is NOT an instructional DVD. Denise packs a lot of great yoga postures into a short amount of time, yet she holds the poses for a good amount of time and really doesn't seem rushed.

A reviewer said she does not cue well, but I think it's just fine: you should have some knowledge of yoga already and know about the positioning of your body in specific poses. Once you get used to the routine it is really easy to follow and quite fun!

You get 4 routines on the DVD and it's great because with the menus you can mix and match in any order you like. The first one is the longest and called Total Yoga Toning. It includes standing postures, most vinyasa style (lots of flow and movement). I especially like the next three: Legs, Abs, and Stretch; each one is approx. 10 minutes for a great quick 30 min yoga session. Some of the postures can be a bit of a challenge; this is much more traditional than I've seen from Denise in previous DVDs. The set is beautiful, bright orange blue water fall in the background.

This is not hard core yoga, but a lovely easy practice that will definitely brighten and start your day right. If you like Denise's other DVD, you will like this one. (If you don't like her voice, upbeat attitude, cueing, etc., you will probably not like this one either.) You can mute her voice and just have music, although I don't see the benefit of this option since you would have to constantly look up to follow along. (A choice of no music would be nice then I could add my own, but that option is not available on this DVD.)

Please check my other reviews on Amazon for other great yoga practices, Namaste'

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor instruction, January 1, 2008

This is a slightly more advanced workout than we usually get from Denise. I was surprised to see her do The Crow, for instance. However, I have to give her low marks for her cueing on this workout. This is a pet peeve of many who exercise with her, but I usually don't mind her cheery babble. This one's pretty bad that way, though. As she does so infuriatingly on her TV shows, she puts you in a position where you can't see the TV, then says something like "Put your hands right here." Right where? While I'm doing a free workout on Lifetime, I don't mind. When I've bought a DVD which should have had more planning (perhaps a script?), I expect more. While I liked the workout, I found myself getting mad by the time she put me in Corpse Pose and told me to clear my mind.

If you've never done yoga before, don't start here -- it moves too fast (at an aerobic pace), and Denise will have you thoroughly confused. (Beginners -- try the excellent Yoga Zone DVDs.) You'd never know it by this review, but I'm actually a fan of Denise's. Her recent Hit The Spot Pilates is one of my all-time favorites. I'm just disappointed that after all her years as a fitness instructor, she's still so bad at cueing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga was fine, May 21, 2008

I really liked this. I have never done yoga before in my life and this was pretty good for me..a beginner. None of those crazy yoga stances or positions..but very basic and great for stretching...as well as working on strengthening muscles. It's very calm and relaxed. I enjoyed it doing this..great for beginners.
