Editorial Reviews

Yoga Journal, February, 2000

Farmer is a great joy to watch... I don't usually get too excited over the videos I review, but this one is special, and it gets my highest recommendation.

Product Description

In more than three decades of teaching yoga around the world, Angela Farmer has developed a unique approach that helps us reconnect with the Feminine within and unfold its creative, life-affirming potential. Her teaching has been guided by intensive personal exploration that returns us to the very source of yoga: those deeply felt streams of life that long to pour freely through each of us.

The Feminine Unfolding offers a window into Angela's teaching, through interviews, worskhop highlights and individual yoga flows. Angela tells the story of her own journey through yoga and explores key themes that have shaped her own practice -- including moving from the belly, feeling into the back body, rooting into the surrounding space and breathing in a way that supports movement, expression and growth.

For Angela, yoga poses are meant to be explorations that launch us on a path of inner discovery. Angela asks each of us to listen deeply inside to our own authentic way of moving, breathing and living, so that we can open to life's profoundest feelings of vitality, empowerment and ease.

5.0 out of 5 stars There has never been a yoga video like this before..., November 9, 2000

This review is from: The Feminine Unfolding: An Exploration of Yoga with Angela Farmer [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Yoga master Angela Farmer has gone to places to which few have been. But with her amazing teaching, she does beckon an ever-increasing group of students to follow. Most yoga classes in the US are obsessed with fitness, form, and fashion. The equilateralness of your triangle and the narrowness of your thighs is seen as a proxy for enlightenment in too many classes. Angela Farmer has been to the land of perfect yoga and returned. What she discovered, as she hacked a path through jungles unexplored by teachers of "approved" yoga, was the fundamental connection between her body and the rest of the universe. This shows itself as an amazing FLOW in her asanas, that doesn't go according to some prescribed pattern, but rather the ripples in her soul. Those who have studied with her have seen their bodies free of internal muscular stress for the first time in their lives, as Angela encourages them to move to music they've never been willing to listen to. This amazing video shows the result, as Angela and her students show the real yoga; union of mind, body, and spirit. It is a transformative experience.

For a graphical view of this teaching, check out also Angela Farmer's partner Victor Van Kooten's books titled Inside Out.
