Editorial Reviews

Richard Freeman has achieved international acclaim for his graceful mastery of the Ashtanga form of yoga. Richard has practiced and taught yoga ssince 1968. With over nine years of intensive study in Asia, he brings a unique synthesis of meditative disciplines to light.

In the Intermediate Series DVD, Richard builds on the alignment and internal skills taught in his Primary Series video. The Intermediate Series is a continuous dynamic flow of nearly 70 postures which specifically give access to the central axis of the body.

As the Primary Series is grounding, strengthening and calming, so the Intermediate Series is opening, exhilarating and awakening. Their combined effect is that the mind can enter meditation with both brilliance and calmness.

**Caution: The exercises in this video are part of a progressive series. Students should have mastered the Primary Series of Ashtanga Yoga before attempting the Intermediate Series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga w/ Richard Freeman: Ashtanga Intermediate Series DVD, April 19, 2006

This review is from: Yoga w/ Richard Freeman: Ashtanga Intermediate Series DVD (DVD)

This dvd is intermediate in the ashtanga yoga tradition of six series: Primary, Intermediate, and Advanced A, B, C, and D.

It doesn't mean intermediate as in the next step from beginner. This is an Ashtanga Vinyase Yoga video in the form that is taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Advanced, February 6, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Yoga w/ Richard Freeman: Ashtanga Intermediate Series DVD (DVD)

I chose this DVD because I know I'm not a true beginner, but boy,oh boy, this is a trully advanced level of yoga. Advanced as in advanced/expert in the yoga world. Freeman teaches and shows all of the most difficult poses and postures that you could ever hope to find. In comparison to this DVD, I'm a beginner, but in comparison to the people I take power yoga with, I'm definately intermediate. Freeman calls this DVD intermediate, which I really think is misleading.
