I love this DVD! Rodney Yee DVD's from Gaiam have become some of my favorite practices. You really need to know a bit about yoga (like the warrior series) before you do this practice. There are no detailed instructions, so I think it would be disappointing for a beginner.
I loved the flow of this practice. Yes, the sun salutations are a bit fast, but is okay since this warms you up for the floor stretches to follow. He holds you in downward facing dog to rest, but I think the pace is perfect to warm you up quickly. It is a short workout of only 30 min., but perfect for those days when I don't have a lot of time. You will definitely get the flexibility on the floor postures after the warm up.
I use Rodney's "Power Yoga Total Body" which I love too, but it is 1 hour. This practice is very similar, but 1/2 the time. You really can't go wrong on this one for $7 on Amazon.
It is beautifully filmed in Joshua Tree which brings back memories for me of rock climbing in the 70's...

I have several Rodney Yee DVDs and this is one of my favorites. I am 52 years old and, although I have always exercised and been active, I have never been very flexible. This one is perfect for warming up your body and challenging it just enough so that you safely increase your flexiblility. I have been doing yoga videos for over 4 years starting with Rodney's AM/PM. I have recommended Rodney's " Back Care Yoga" to my contemporaries as a good starting video and am now recommending this one as the next step. I love his calm voice, the serene locations and (with this one expecially) the relaxing meditative endings.

I can completely and without reservation, recommend this DVD. I suffer from chronic neck & shoulder tension and when I do not do this program two or three times a week, I am in agony. I am not the most flexible person in the world, but after consistent use, I feel "looser". I am also in love with Rodney's gentle voice and careful instruction to "breathe" in all the right places where I usually find myself holding my breath, as well as "soft eyes" which when I first heard it found myself release my eyes which had crept up my forehead! While I understand a lot of customer's concern that he assumes you know a lot of the positions, if you just watch the program once or twice, at least with this particular DVD, you should be fine.

Beginner Beware!
The yoga postures in this DVD are incredibly rushed. Unless one is already very familiar with the poses by name and technique, it's very difficult to follow. Read more

I'm not new to Yoga...this moves too quickly
The poses are good but not one of them is held long enough. Yoga really shouldn't be done in 20minutes anyway. Read more

Good basic workout
Good basic yoga workout. Helps to know the basics of yoga eg upward/downward dog, the rest is easy to pick up.
Would recommend if after a workout to improve basic flexibility.

This tape is great for flexibility. Our gym cancelled yoga for the summer and the instructor recommended Rodney Yee DVDs. Read more

Not that great, but pretty good for a short workout
This workout is great if you don't have a lot of time. Otherwise it feels rushed, and I don't get as much out of it as other DVDs I have. Read more
