This is the first yoga tape that I've ever done. The workout was challenging, and, yes, truly relaxing. After all the stretching, my body felt less tense. Wai Lana is a very serene instructor; her voice is calm and soothing as she guides you through the poses. I'm not very flexible, and I found the poses manageable. The only part I wasn't crazy about was the musical meditation at the end. I found it more distracting than relaxing. I recommend this video and plan on using it again.

I absolutely love Wai Lana's Relaxation Video. There is something soothing about her voice both in her instruction and singing that makes me look forward to my yoga session with her everyday. The breathtaking scenery, music, beautiful outfits along with Wai Lana's personality makes this video unlike any I've seen before. The poses are not too difficult but I still feel like I've had a good workout when I'm finished, making my body feel great and definitely less stressed. I will highly recommend this video to anyone taking up the practice of yoga.

This DVD is less strenuous than something like Baron Baptiste or Brian Kest. It moves along though and you aren't just sitting there meditating. There are some different moves in this DVD like bicycling your legs and side leg lifts that seemed strange to me in a yoga practice but when I did them I found that they really relaxed my back and hips. There wasn't much sitting in a pose and holding it--instead you did active things like rolling up and down, or rolling back into a kind of halfway plow pose and then opening your legs into a "v" while you are up there. Wai Lana has a heavy accent but I could still understand her for the most part. At first I thought she is silly with her bright outfits and singing but then I started really liking her because she has such a happy expression on her face and she gives off such good energy. You won't be stretched out and exhausted like at the end of a power yoga workout but instead a feeling of calm and happiness comes over you. I recommend this for a nice change of pace.

I have never had a stretch/workout like this, where I felt it all over my body the next day. Wai Lana works your body like nothing before. Relaxation? I think so. When you get over the soreness of the newly and impeccably stretched mucsles and limbs you will feel like a new person and will want to preserve this video forever. No part of your pbody is left out. It is that amazing.

This yoga tape really works for me. I use it to unwind and relax after a long day at the office. I find the tape is very convenient to use in the comfort of my living room. Wai Lana's instructions on this tape are very clear and the flow is not so fast that it is hard to keep up, like on some yoga videos by different people. I really like the all the ocean backgrounds and find the music meditation at the end very peaceful. I would recommend this tape to anyone who wants to do yoga.
