4.0 out of 5 stars Balanced Sequence for the Experienced Practitioner, October 17, 2003

Don't be put off by the title - foremost this CD set offers a well-rounded flow of asanas that are complemented by the chanting at the end of the second CD. Jai Uttal's music is ideal accompaniment. Rea has, as usual, designed the tracks to be accessible for different needs - length of time, type of practice, time of day, etc. I especially apprecite the gems of poetry (Hafiz) and thought (Upanishads) she has interspersed with her instruction. Altogether a worthwhile purchase!

Shiva Rhea successfully delivers again with this voice-guided yoga work-out. Intense enough to work up a sweat, but also flexible enough to accomodate both intermediate and advanced practicers. I also enjoyed the background music that is played throughout. You will definitely need to be familiar with yoga postures and their names in order to benefit from this CD. It's best to start off doing yoga with a live instructor anyway. If you are intermediate to advanced, this is a nice rounded out practice that you can do at home. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The next step for the person who knows sun salutation, September 27, 2002

This review is from: Yoga Chant (Audio CD)

Shiva Rea teaches at Sacred Movement in Santa Monica and does workshops around the country. After attending her workshop I needed a more regular experience of her enthusiasm, presence, and serious wisdom. While this CD is more a reminder of the experience than the experience, you'll still work hard and then find deep peace. The chanting / Om part unexpectedly opened my chest and allowed for my breath to really vibrate deep in my chest while doing asanas. Very cool.
