This review is from: Prenatal Yoga with Mimi Solaire (DVD)

This prenatal yoga video was enjoyable-they even had a cheesy thing at the end where there are pictures of babies floating out of the sky while twinkle twinkle little stars plays which my family enjoyed.

My favorite two sections were the flow section (basically floor and standing poses along with modified sun salutations) and the strengthening section. I liked that you could choose chapters and it wasn't almost 2 hours long like some of the other videos. It also didn't require any props.

This video isn't high on the difficulty rating but was enjoybale to do

I have 4 pre-natal yoga DVD and I choose to do this one most of the time, my back is much better, it is really a pity that it is not as popular as the shiva rea pre-natal dvd, I found it after searching a researching a lot. For anyone looking for a gentle but very effective yoga practice I highly recommend this dvd.

5.0 out of 5 stars All Stages - All Levels, April 25, 2007

This review is from: Prenatal Yoga with Mimi Solaire (DVD)

I really enjoyed this prenatal yoga video. The best part of it is that all of the poses and stretches are "safe" for any stage of your pregnancy and your level of your practice. Mimi introduces modified downward dog and other modified inversions, so even if you are not an advanced practitioner you can still perform them, avoiding vena cava syndrome. My favorite modification is the sun salutations towards the end of the "flow" section. The "strengthening" section takes you through more core poses to help you relieve stress, relieve tight backs, and reach a calm state-of-mind in a gentle and calming way. Another nice thing about Mimi's video is that throughout her practice she is narrating the class explaining the benefits of each pose. Very enjoyable and great to do with other members of you family even if they are not pregnant =)
