5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga At It's Best, August 4, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Raquel: Total Beauty and Fitness [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I became an instant fan of this video at the age of eight when my mother brought it home. I spent that entire summer doing yoga poses with Raquel. The tape was later lost and in the last few years I have found myself desparate to find a copy. Out of all the yoga taped that I have tried this one is the best. It contains a wide variety of poses and plenty of tips on safety and form. Plus, the tape doesn't rush you through the workout. I have grown tired of tapes that only last for 45 minutes and force you in and out of poses too quickly. With Total Beauty and Fitness, you can work at your own pace without constantly having to hit pause. The tape is wonderful in itself, but there is also the added incentive of how wonderful Ms. Welch has aged over the years. If her exercise methods have anything to do with it, I'll have whatshe's having.

5.0 out of 5 stars Total Beauty & FItness, November 4, 2002
By Lyn8070 (Stoneham, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Raquel: Total Beauty and Fitness [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Bought this tape (& book) in the 80's when I started Ballroom Dance competitions, and loved it. It really helped me to stretch, balance, focus and concentrate. Still have both tape & book - - do tape only occasionally b/c of the 80 minute time commitment. Learned a lot from the book about nutrition and health. Raquel may be beautiful to look at, but she is strong and flexible and really pushes you to do your best throughout the tape. You won't want to whimp out by not doing your best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Guidance for good health, July 20, 2002
By Juliana Greco (Lakewood, CO, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Raquel: Total Beauty and Fitness [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The video (and book) highlight benefits from Hatha Yoga and good eating and living habits that can be derived whilst living in a stress-prone world. With humbleness and wit, Ms. Welch guides the viewer/reader through an alternative way to fortify and strengthen the body, improve flexibility, and, soothe the mind. The excercises are isometric by nature and provide the fastest turnaround I've seen in any type of excercise regime (including triathlon training, aerobics teaching, weight-lifting and so forth).
Really wish publishers would re-launch this work again as it is timeless and effective as compared to other tools marketed since that promise to do the same but don't.
Ms. Welsh is inspirational in her postures and the tranquility she conveys throughout this work.
