5.0 out of 5 stars Lilias is Back, August 14, 2006

This review is from: Lilias! AM & PM Yoga Workouts for Seniors (DVD)

I watched Lilias when she first was on TV in the early 70's. It was my first experience of yoga. She was great then, even pretty sexy. This was motivating as I thought then if I did these poses, I'd be more "hot" like Lilias. Once I did the yoga though, it wasn't just about being sexy, it was about feeling wonderful.

Now she's created a DVD for people with limited capacity re balance and strength. I would say the average person in their 60's or 70's, who had no yoga experience, would be happy with this. I must add I have only watched the first part-morning yoga. As it was not challenging for me, I haven't watched the rest yet. However, my husband who is 61 and has some coordination and balance problems, and no yoga experience, did the first part with me and really enjoyed it, as did I. Lilias just radiates happiness and you can hardly not enjoy it even if the poses are modified. She makes it really slow and easy and gives hints and clues of how to enjoy it no matter where you're starting from. Just by being there and doing the asanas with you, she shows you how it feels when life is wonderful and how the yoga experience, done often and with concentration, helps you to find that.

She's still the cute looking girl, now aged like all of us, but genuinely in love with life and yoga. If you're feeling down, this experience will lift you up and keep you there for days. Lilias's tenderness, joy, and love cannot be ignored. Thanks, Lilias, from the bottom of my heart. You are the angel of our boomer generation.

This review is from: Lilias! AM & PM Yoga Workouts for Seniors (DVD)

I am not a senior but very inflexible and a yoga novice so I decided to start with this DVD. Lilias is a joy to watch. There is a morning session (more energizing) and an evening session (aimed more toward destressing and relaxing). I think almost anyone would be able to do these stretches and easy yoga moves.
Lilias does tend to talk a lot when explaining the moves, which is very helpful when you are just learning them but not once you are familiar with the DVD and waiting for her to move on. What would be great is if this DVD had two versions of the session on it - one which went slow with a lot of explanation and another version which just flowed from move to move.
Despite that, I would still highly recommend this DVD. It will familiarize you with yoga and, when you are ready, you can always move on to a more challenging one. As for me, I enjoy Lilias' calming and happy personality so much that I have stayed with this one for now.
