Editorial Reviews

³You¹re going to feel amazing and get stronger and challenge yourself and move and breathe ... all the juicy stuff the physical practice has to offer, but this will also move you past the physical. Spirit is what makes yoga an artistic expression that¹s unique to you.² ‹ from the Body and Beyond bonus interview with Seane Corn As sincere and heartfelt as Seane herself in embracing Spirit and all it can mean for each of us, Session Two in the Vinyasa Flow series takes you another step beyond the physical. Pick up the pace in this more challenging yet still technically precise practice and continue to increase your strength, flexibility and understanding of the vinyasa framework. This practice will deepen the connection between the fluid movements, each breath you take and an increasing peace of mind in your life. It will create a place you can go to feel a comfortable, personal connection with both your body and your own sense of Spirit. Includes two complete program & practice options: Instructional Sessions: A rich learning tool ‹ with two options to keep up with your skill progression and schedule. Long Form (85 minutes) includes more of the detailed, unscripted live-audio explanation and demonstration that make Seane¹s home-practice programs a learning experience as rich and intimate as a one-to-one class. Includes modified Sun Salutations A and B, standing poses, backbends, twists, reflection, meditation and savasana. Short Form (40 minutes) omits some preparatory poses and commentary for a more fluid, continuous practice. Breath Session: For progressing skill levels and refining vinyasa breathing technique.

5.0 out of 5 stars Slow Flow with an Iyengar twist, February 2, 2005

This review is from: Seane Corn: Vinyasa Flow Yoga - The Body And Beyond, Session Two (DVD)

This DVD was great if you want a slower flowing yoga DVD. I think this DVD is good for just about anybody familiar with yoga, and how to use yoga blocks. Seane starts off slowly with meditation, breathing exercises, and then slowly starts going into the actual postures. The postures themselves were not difficult for advanced beginner and up practioners. However, Seane goes through these postures slowly enough where you will start to feel different parts of your body open up. Seane pays a fair amount of attention to alignment (moreso than I am use to seeing in a Vinyasa Flow type DVD). She takes her time getting into and out of the postures and this where I feel anyone can benefit from this DVD.

If you are the type of person looking for a Vinyasa Flow DVD to make you move, sweat, drop a few pounds, or want very challenging postures, then this probably is not the DVD for you. I would suggest Shiva Rae's Yoga Shakti DVD which has something for almost every skill level, except maybe the truly gifted and advanced yogis/yoginis out there (the arm balances she does are almost all intermediate to advanced). However, if you want to really focus on the alignment and feeling of some of the more basic postures, and you are looking for something slower than the average flow yoga DVD, then this is a home run.

This review is from: Seane Corn: Vinyasa Flow Yoga - The Body And Beyond, Session Two (DVD)

In disk one, Seane Corn teaches in a simple stage alone with beautiful muted music. Some have complained she talks too much, but it's all about the pose, getting in/out, what to watch out for, how to place all body parts (I learned new info even after 4 years & 30 yoga dvds.) Her speaking while moving (not narrating) wasn't hurried or stressed in my opinion at all. I think with all her info it helped me to be more present & not let my mind wander to daily worries. I do like when the yoga teacher speaks since it reminds me to be aware of where my body is & what I am doing.
This DVD contained the usual sun salutations (plank, lunges, upward dog, cobra, downward dog) & triangle, side angle, warrior 1 & 2, child's pose, twisted triangle, butterfly, seated leg stretching just like her first DVD, but also twisted side angle pose, chair/powerful pose, locust, bridge, boat, lotus, alternate standing 1 leg to knee to really stretch the hamstrings, 1 legged stand, wide legged forward bends, twisted indian pose for back, twisted sage pose, bharadvaja's twist & lower back common stretches & ones I've never seen before that worked for me better then others since I'm very flexible, were great & a few I can't remember.

In disk 2 there are 2 sessions.
There is the short form of 40 min that includes most of these poses (sun salutations, lunges, triangle, side angle, lunges, bridge, wide-legged fwd bend, twisted sage pose, etc.) where she guides you WITH TALKING (not narrating overlay) like the first one ending with a 3 min corpse pose.
The second one is an hour & 15 min, but it just music & her slow, deep, perfect breathing.

I will definitely be using this in the future to make sure I keep my posture correct which I realize my form was already sloppy by using this disc.

5.0 out of 5 stars True Essence of Vinyasa, January 24, 2005

By 

Yogini Therapeutic - See all my reviews

This review is from: Seane Corn: Vinyasa Flow Yoga - The Body And Beyond, Session Two (DVD)

This vinyasa practice is wonderfully appropriate for beginner-advanced practitioners. Seane uses clear and precise language to convey the true essence of hatha vinyasa yoga. The postures included in the practice are beginner to intermediate, however even the most advanced practitioner can appreciate the quality of teaching and "spirit" guiding in this DVD. Most videos on the market focus soley on the physical aspect of practice, but Seane takes it a step further. After the student has mastered the verbally led practice, Seane leads us with a second practice, the silent one, where she gives us the ability to understand and feel yoga happening inside of us. This is where the practice really begins. If you are looking to advance your practice to the next emotional level, choose this one.
