5.0 out of 5 stars Beware: A different style of yoga, but great!!!, October 10, 2000

This review is from: Kundalini Yoga with Gurmukh [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Don't even buy this video if you don't know about Kundalini yoga. You will be disappointed. This video does not contain your traditional yoga postures like downward dog, warrior, or triangle. However, if you are willing to try something new and wonderful this may be for you. This video is more spiritual than most other videos, and contains some unusual exercises. You will find yourself doing some leg lifts, flapping your arms, twisting, punching the air, and doing pelvic rolls (just to name a few). It does have some components of calesthinics-type exercise, but is all designed around the style of Kundalini yoga. The music and scenery are lovely, it's set in a rainforest-type outdoor area. The teacher, Gurmukh, is very mellow and has a style different than most western yoga instructors. She uses a very relaxing and sing-song voice. This video also contains a relaxation and meditation session at the end, accompanied with a gong. I love this tape, for something different than my usual yoga practice. If you're willing to try something new, you might love it too. It's not for everyone, so you may want to read up on Kundalini yoga first.

5.0 out of 5 stars best yoga tape I've ever done, October 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Kundalini Yoga with Gurmukh [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I didn't know much about Kundalini yoga before I bought this video, but had heard about the instructor, so I was curious.

The video was not only beautiful to look at(I could actually just watch this video and listen to the music) but the workout was great. It was relaxing and invigorating by turns. The teacher was fun and I liked her sense of humor and her soothing voice.

I don't understand what the viewer from Boulder Colorado was talking about, this video looks beautiful and is a unique yoga experience that makes you feel really relaxed at the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect complement to your muscle and bone yoga practice, October 14, 2000

This review is from: Kundalini Yoga with Gurmukh [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Having practiced yoga now for 6 years, I was ready to learn a different approach to complement my yoga teacher's hatha/Iyengar method of practice. The concept pf kundalini - awakening the energy within you through movement and breath - seemed like a good choice. This video is a fantastic primer into the world of kundalini. It connects you with one of the foundations of any yoga practice, BREATHING. Using rhythmic and sometimes energetically rapid breathing, you learn to connect to the energy within you that can take you yoga practice to a new level. Everyone who is serious about their yoga, should expereince this tape. It is well taught, both visually and vocally. It is aerobic - so don't expect a mellow experience in yoga. Great for waking up in the morning, getting the energy going and revitalizing yourself when you feel low on fuel. This tape will definitely become part of my permanent practice. Namaste Gurmukh!
