5.0 out of 5 stars
Easy-to-follow, great, gentle work-out, January 3, 2002
A terrific way to tune into your new baby, this tape is a combination work-out, relaxation and meditation without a lot of new age incense-burning. The work-out is complete without being exhausting and after finishing, you feel energized and calm. Rocki is a wonderful teacher and goes through each pose slowly enough to be able to follow easily. The women are real-looking pregnant women, not stick-figure models, which is certainly nicer to look at when you're pregnant. I loved the section when you focus on your baby - talk about early bonding!

Best Pregnancy Yoga Tape I've Found, October 1, 2003
By A Customer
I have five pregnancy yoga tapes, and this is my favorite. It mixes some traditional yoga poses in with some especially designed for pregnancy. It contains kegel exercises, and some pilates-style leg lifts. The first 1/2 of the tape is floorwork/poses (downward dog, squats, leg lifts), and then it moves on to standing work (tree pose, spinal twists, more squats). The video ends with some stretching and relaxation. Rocki has a very calming voice, and doesn't talk too much during the workout. Not only will you feel more energized after this video, but you will feel like you got a workout in too. You will get a little cardio benefit from it, as well as stretching and relaxation.

Highly recommended!, July 23, 2004
This review is from: Rocki's Prenatal Yoga (DVD)
I did this workout throughout my whole pregnancy and I'm totally convinced that's why I bounced back so quickly. It kept me in shape (well, you know what I mean-everything's relative when you're hugely pregnant)and kept me feeling great while I was pregnant. My husband could tell the days I didn't work out because I didn't have the same energy as when I did yoga.
The sequences are thorough-kind of easy when you're barely pregnant and tough when you're full term. The stretching and breathing alone is worth its weight in gold for me. I love the meditation Rocki does, too. It's nice but not too "new agey" for me.
Best of all for me, I just had my baby 3 weeks ago and went back to doing this tape a few days ago-and felt good. I hope Rocki puts out a postnatal workout-I bet it would be great. I did her Labor Prep tapes and we loved them. They really helped my husband and I work together when I was in labor.
This workout is terrific and I really recommend it. Fit Pregnancy and LA Magazine say it's the best prenatal yoga class, so I'm in good company. I couldn't have gotten through my pregnancy without it.
