5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, January 12, 2003

Nikki (San Francisco) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Yoga 4 Fertility [VHS] (VHS Tape)

A friend of mine knew that my husband and I are trying to conceive, so she bought this video for me as a gift.

I cannot express how much I LOVE this video. It is wonderful. I've been doing yoga little over a year and I rank in the intermediate range. I found the video to be clear, peaceful, and interesting. Brenda Strong is a beautiful woman, she has a very kind voice that guides you though the workout and the setting is out in a garden with birds chirping in the background. The moves that are done are very loving to the body and help increase energy around the reproductive areas.

This video is slow paced, effective, loving, and very feminine. I would highly recommend it to any woman.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great yoga video but with two notes of caution, January 23, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Yoga 4 Fertility [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a great yoga video, with thorough and clear instructions for the poses along with reminders throughout the session to focus on your breath. I've been going to yoga classes for only a few months, and I would say that even a complete beginner can handle these exercises just by watching the video once before trying to follow along.

Unfortunately, the meditation/relaxation section was ruined for me by the fact that you're told to pause the video and relax for 5 or 10 minutes. There's no guidance for staying focused during that time or knowing when the time is up, and having to think about it necessarily detracts from your ability to relax.

Also, if you're actually dealing with infertility and tend to get emotional about it, you might be better off with a regular yoga video. The first time I did the routine happened to be a bad day for me for infertility-related reasons, and the video was a reminder of my problem that made me feel worse, not better. I have since tried it again and enjoyed it, but only when I've been in a strong and positive frame of mind. Many, if not most, of the poses in the video are pretty common and can be found in other videos, along with the relaxation element. If, on the other hand, you're looking specifically for the aspects of massage, channeling energy, and the mind-body connection focusing on the reproductive areas, this video is for you, but only if you're in the frame of mind to embrace them positively.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this tape - Brenda Strong is a wonderful teacher, March 9, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Yoga 4 Fertility [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I love traditional astanga yoga classes (fast pace, lots of flowing movement), so when I first ordered the tape, I was worried it would be too slow or too navel gazing. I love it. Brenda Strong is clear and positive without being treacly or too touchy-feely. She emphasizes breath and self-awareness, which some more fitness-guru types dabbling in yoga sometimes skip. Her instructions and demonstrations are easy to follow, and her manner is reassuring and firm. My friends who are yoga instructors reinforce that she's focusing on the right exercises to strengthen the reproductive organs.

I can't recommend this enough
