(Fabulous yoga DVD!!)
『I tried a Denise Austin yoga video a few years back and loathed it. I had no intention of trying yoga again until ankle pain forced me to try some type of non-weigh-bearing exercise. Despite my hesitancy, the wonderful reviews for Fat Free Yoga encouraged me to try the DVD.

I fell in love with this DVD from the first workout! I can hardly believe that I actually look forward to doing the yoga routine daily. I've only been using it for about two weeks but already my posture has improved, as well as my balance and flexibility.

My favorite part is the relaxation and meditation after each exercise. Ana demonstrates each movement so it is easy to follow. Ravi gives excellent instruction so that once you've viewed the DVD a few times you can do it without even watching the screen -- which is helpful because many of the exercises are done with your eyes closed! Ravi's voice is so soothing and I always feel both invigorated and relaxed after a workout.

The matrix feature is wonderful because you can choose your favorite segments in the order you choose, or just play one or two if time is an issue. I think the No Impact Aerobics and the Deep Relaxation segments are my favorites.

If you've been reluctant to try yoga, I encourage you to try this video. You'll probably find yourself falling in love with yoga and purchasing more of Ravi and Ana's DVD's like I have!』


(Give it a try-you won't regret it)
『If you are new to kundalini yoga give this one a try. This is the one I started with and I've been hooked ever since. Fat Free Yoga has changed my life. Kundalini yoga is whole different type of yoga-much different than the hatha yoga I was used to. It's very challenging, yet I feel so relaxed after I'm done. I feel loosened up from head to toe. It has really loosened up my spine and improved my posture. I feel like my sinuses clear up after all the breath of fire and I can breathe more deeply. My body literally hums for the rest of the day and I have so much energy.

The four 20 min segments are great if you want to shorten it up or if you are short on time but I find that even if I only plan to do one or two of them I almost always end up doing the whole thing. Once I start I just don't want to stop. The time flies by!

I have all but two of Ravi&Ana's workouts and this is one of my favorites as well as Yoga Bliss Hips, A Journey through the Chakras&Navel Power. So if you don't own this one already, get it now!』


(Be still my inner critic! This DVD is fantastic!)
『I was excited when I read so many positive reviews about this DVD, and am happy to say that they are all right! I have never loved a Yoga program like this one. I even find myself doing some of the moves in my office for a quick pick-me-up. I also bought the Yoga Bliss Hips and like that one very much too!



(Best workouts I have ever done! Works Mind Body and Soul)
『I initially bought Fat Free Yoga for my mom who is in her mid 50's. My sister's and I have been encouraging her for years to walk, exercise, to do SOMETHING, but to no avail she just wasn't motivated to keep up with any of it. From day ONE, she loved the low impact workouts. And I did too!

I am not a novice to working out having done the whole gym scene, classes, running, etc and nothing has ever made such an effective and dramatic difference in my mind and body. I can see it in my mom too; she is actually EXCITED to work out!!! We are calmer, more focused, and overall happier! It goes without saying that we went ahead and got 2 more of Ana and Ravi's DVD's - Dance the Chakras, and Warrior Workout.

In only about 2 months time, we have lost weight and inches. Even if you don't see an immediate difference in your body, there will be an immediate difference in your mind and soul - you WILL FEEL FANTASTIC. I highly recommend this DVD to ANYONE, at any age!! Best $20 I have ever spent. : )』


(GREAT FOR ANY WEIGHT)
『I live with a yoga teacher and have a collection of about 50 different videos. This is one of the most played videos I have. I really like all of Ravi and Ana's videos. The videos are easy to follow because Ravi instructs while Ana demonstrates. Like many of Ravi's videos, this video is divided up into 4 seventeen minute sessions(note I have the older video tape version). The video is designed so that people can do any where from 1 to 4 sessions. I like the convenience of being able to do 1 or 2 sessions on mornings when I am in a rush. I find that this tape will energize me for the rest of the day. Each session provides an opportunity to enjoy a total body workout including meditation and breathing.』
NOW WITH THE ALL NEW DESIGN YOUR OWN WORKOUT MATRIX MENU OPTIONExperience Kundalini Yoga's sophisticated approach to effortless conditioning. Breathe, move, stretch, relax, meditate, celebrate! Boost your metabolism. Slim down, tone and feel inspired. These workouts and meditations will help you optimize your glandular system, bring emotional healing, reduce problem areas, and help you attain your personal ideal. This conveniently chaptered 90 min. DVD offers four 20 min. workouts (plus two meditations) to help you reshape your body and your life! This DVD starts with a breathing exercise for energizing and to curb impulsive habit patterns. Then the first segment Start Your Engines, features exercises to boost metabolism. Our favorite is the cardio warm-up called 'Ravi Rolls' with the breath of fire. The Fight Fire w/Fire segment focuses on abdominal strengthening and toning. These are exercises anyone cando, but you will really feel the burn. Segment 3: No Impact Aerobics really gets your circulation moving. You haven't lived until you've tried Frog Pose and Piston Pose! Your Life is in Your Own Glands will optimize hormonal balance. The two meditations on this DVD are for calming and emotional healing. The soothing Breath Meditation w/Hands Like a Teapot is more relaxing than a day at the spa! This DVD is for all levels. Modifications are given so that everyone can always participate. Long time yogis will find much new material to add to their yoga repertoire. This DVD features an inspired musical score by Tom Carden.』

(wonderful yoga)
『Great yoga workout. A good amount of time spent in downward dog pose so if you don't like blood rushing to your head, don't get it. Otherwise, great workout.』

(Rodney Yee is truly a yoga genius...)
『I can not do all of this video as of yet...but even just the first 20 minutes challenge me and make me sweat... I am still about 30 pounds overweight and I need to develop more strength. This video is great for helping me lose weight and build strength. I like the pace of this video...not too fast...not too slow. I have many DVDs by Rodney Yee and I will continue to purchase his videos.

Hey I have some on my wishlist if you wanna buy me one! lol

Jennifer Cothrine』


(Great workout, great instructor)
『I had been doing Kundalini Yoga for several months and a co-worker suggested I try a Rodney Yee DVD. Boy am I glad I did. The instruction is clear and consise. The movements are slow and challenging. I feel completely stretched and relaxed after completing this workout. I do this one every 3rd day. I combine this workout with Kundalini Yoga w/Raviana and Brian Kest's Power Yoga Series. Combining these workouts and a low-carb diet plan I have successfully lost more than 40 lbs. and changed the way my body looks and feels. I walk straighter and with more confidence. No more backaches, I sleep like a baby.Kundalini Yoga for Beginners&Beyond NEW!

(Good workout)
『This is a good longer workout that I use if I'm limited on time but still want a workout that will make me sweat and be good for strength. I recommend it if some of the other power yoga DVDs are a little too fast-paced for you. This is a little easier to follow. One thing to mention, though, get ready for a lot of downward dog. Yee really likes that pose in this video and you'll be spending quite a bit of time in it.』

(On the fence)
『I'll have to use it more to give a better review, but so far I do like it although its very challenging for a beginner like myself.』
『Power yoga "demands your attention," says instructor Rodney Yee. He leads a challenging, constantly progressing series of poses, one flowing into the next, integrating breath, movement, tension, and relaxation. The poses include Sun Salutation, standing poses, forward bends, back bends, twists, and arm balances. The first poses are fairly easy, and with each repetition of the series, Yee adds on more difficult movements, extending the series without pausing. You're encouraged to do as much of the series that fits your level, up to the entire 65-minute workout if you're an experienced yoga practitioner. Although you can begin at any level, some familiarity with yoga is recommended. The Hawaiian setting is gorgeous and inspiring. This is an excellent yoga workout that you can grow with, adding on more as you get stronger.--Joan Price

(Yoga Mat Review)
『I'm slightly disappointed with this. My hands tend to get sweaty and slip while in certain yoga positions (down dog, etc.), and I had hoped this mat would alleviate that, but it doesn't. My hands and bare feet slip on this too. I wear weight lifting gloves now to prevent slipping. I still use the mat as it helps to somewhat cushion my body and my lower back, but would not purchase another like it. It may work better on a bare floor than on carpet. There are 2 of these in a local recreation center where I also workout and they are fine there.』

(Good Mat with Good Price)
『This mat is much more than the money I paid. thick enough and no slip. smell isn't so terrible as the other people said. I would go a wider one next time.』

(Good Padding, but not Perfect)
『The thickness of this mat is good for everyday use and is thin enough to take with you. There was very little "plastic" smell, but it isn't quite as sticky as I would like.』

(very nice mat)
『This is a very nice yoga mat. nice color, sticky enough so my feet don't slip, and works well with my new yoga dvds.』

(Much better than a towel!!!)
『This item has done wonders for my yoga workouts at home. Until I got this pad, I was using a blanket or a towel; this beats them both.』

(This company does not deserve anyone to buy from them!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
『They are not shipping the item when they are supossed to .... I've been waiting for a yoga mat 25 days ... and they are not even answering my emails or my return my money ....』

(very bad customer service)
『I purchased this ball with the recommended mini air pump from the vendor Sissel recently. The mini air pump is a piece of junk --- came with no instruction at all, and a needle that can not be fitted to the pump. The ball looks bad as well --- well as you cannot use the pump as they advertised, you have to use a straw to inflate it.
I'm so disappointed with these products that I want to return them -- however, I was told by the C.R. that I'm not going to be refunded for the freight cost ($6.49) and I have to ship it back out of my own pocket --- and you can imagine how cheap the company is. Better just go to some local sports store and buy a better pilates ball.』


(ABS OF STEEL)
『great product, i use it to do my sit ups, and it takes the pain out of your back. Just lock your feet into something, or put on some ankle weights, and you get a great workout. almost got my 6 pack』

(Great Workout Tool)
『This item makes doing abdominal workouts (crunches, etc.) almost fun. I love it. I have seen almost instant results, and I usually consider the areas it works to be hopeless problem areas. I must admit to the caveat that I have a yogalates instructor now, and she is the one who showed me how to use it.』

(Pilates Ball, just OK)
『The ball works as it is supposed to and it is certainly cheaper than the Bender Ball. Kind of silly how you have to blow it up with a straw( I used a pump from other balance balls) and it always deflates a little when you place the pin. Actually, a children's plastic ball that you buy at the supermarket works just as well and costs a whole lot less.』
『The Sissel Pilates Mini Ball is a sure way to tone your abs and inner thighs as well as increase your flexibility, strength and endurance! The Sissel Pilates Mini Ball is also a wonderful tool for adding focus&energy to your workouts. It is also suitable for relaxation and deep relaxation, for abdominal muscle training and neck massages. It can also be used as supporting cushion, when it is partially inflated. The Sissel Pilates Mini Ball is easy to inflate by gently blowing into the inflation straw (included). Please note color not exactly as shown.』

(One of my favorite yoga DVDs of all time!)
『I've been using this DVD for over a year and I still love it! The "matrix" system allows for endlessly new practices. If one day I feel I need to do some forward bends, I'll throw them in, or if I want to work on shoulder stand, I simply select that portion! It's fantastic! If I'm feeling energetic, I simply love the "Dancing Warriors."

The setting is lovely, and the background music is PERFECT. This DVD changed the way I did yoga. As someone who has practiced with this DVD for over a year - I can say confidently, you WILL enjoy this practice.

I would call myself a beginner-intermediate, and I'm not sure if this would be good for a beginner. Although, Shiva does provide cues for modified poses through-out and there is a "Basic" level to follow for those not familiar with flow yoga.

I would give this DVD 10 stars if I could.』

(Tibetan Wind Chimes)
『The chimes were beautiful. The wood was unsanded and missing some paint. The seller provided prompt mailing.』

(Great for a windy location)
『In reponse to the rater below, you asked about a design that is more breeze-sensitive. What I have found is that you need traditional chimes (with a wide clapper sorrounded by tubes). These are quite sensitive to the slightest breeze which is good if you don't have much wind in your area. By contrast, I live in a windy area and have come to avoid chimes with a wide clapper in the middle. I look for chimes with a ball-shaped clapper or no clapper at all, which make a light, pleasant sound even in strong breezes.』

(beautiful but. . .)
『This is a beautiful windchime. My wife loved it when I gave it to her. We put it up outside and waited to hear the wind-blown music. Even though there was a breeze, we didn't hear anything. Our bamboo windchime was making its usual clunking noises, but nothing from the new one. I have since heard it, but it practically takes a gale to get the sounds. By the way it does makes beautiful music in the wind. If someone has suggestions for making a windchime more sensitive to the elements I'd be glad to know. Or is the secret to buy ones made from very light weight materials.』

(Great Gift Idea!)
『My mother received this windchime for Christmas, and it's lovely and at a great price!』

(Time to Chime)
『I was very attracted to this particular wind chime when I saw it on Amazon. Once I received it, I was even more pleased. The unique Tibetan style is eye-catching and the details are nice. It makes a soothing, cavernous sound. Very nice item. I adore it.』

(I have found happiness with the Zen Alarm Clock)
『First, bought the "Dawn Simulator" alarm clock, but didn't like the way it worked -- the light was annoying and didn't really rouse me, and the beeper at the end was awful. Then I bought the "Peaceful Progression Wake Up Clock", but it was so ugly I had to send it back. Finally, I bought the "Zen Alarm Clock" and have now found happiness. The clock works great, sounds great, and looks great. This is the last alarm clock I will ever need. I highly recommend this thoughtful and ingenious product.』

(Superb, inspiring)
『I own a yoga studio and teach several times a week. I use the Digital Zen Alarm clock to start and end my classes. My students appreciate the chime reverberating through the classroom.

I also have one at home that I use for an alarm clock. It gives you energy, makes you want to get up and dance and twirl around with your hands over your head. My old alarm clock made me cringe every time it went off in the morning. I highly recommend this clock to anyone. Once you hear it for yourself you will be glad you bought it. This is an amazing device.


(Tried and true!)
『Echoing many of the sentiments already stated, I think this clock is a brilliant idea. The chiming sound doesn't scare me to death in the morning and my dog doesn't go crazy like he did when I had the torturous buzzing clock. I love the Zen Alarm Clock!』

(Zen Alarm Clock has become a morning companion that I would loathe to do without)
『The Digital Zen-clock really is a product unlike any other. It has become a morning companion that I would now be loathe to do without. The sweet "ding" of the clock's chime-bell is easy on my nervous system. It coaxes me out of bed, gently persuading my neurons to begin firing in the conscious mode. Even the "feel" of the clock is soothing, I like to rub my hands against the rich, solid walnut woodgrain. This is one electronic device that eschews the main steam mentality that seeks to make everything out of cheap and nasty plastic. The Zen-clock is a oasis of progressive taste is sea of corporate mediocrity.


(A Truly Lovely Morning Experience...)
『This clock is truly divine...I love it! It has a ten minute wake up regime...where the chimes continue to get more frequent and urgent. I like the sound of the chime; it is like a little bird whistling at my window.

This little clock is worth its weight in gold. Aside from the excellent sound of the clock the instruction manual was well written. I also called the customer service folks at Now&Zen (the manufactures of the Zen Clock) and they sent me a new ac adapter because I had left mine in Germany when I took my clock on a trip to visit my grandmother.

This is a great alarm clock!

『Wake to the gentle Tibetan bell-like chimes of our best-selling alarm clock and start your day more renewed and refreshed. Use the countdown or timer for your meditation or yoga practice. Adjustable volume control. Uses two AA batteries (not included) or AC adapter. Case in maple (light) or walnut (dark). When open, 9"L x 2 1/4"W x 3 3/4"H. 2 lbs. Imported.』

『Yoga For Beginners I Have two disk lower back that are bad. I have been three DR's no help and then went to a rheumatism and she send me to a real Back Dr and he stated if I do the surgery there is a 40% you will be worst. But, this DVD has helped my core back to be not in pain. I'm 5'7" and 135# and 53 years or age. If I can not have a surgery I'm better off. So, good for me and good for the DVD and Barbara Benagh for helping me thru the pain. And of course finding the the right Doctors to treat the pain and encourage me to do core back exercise to help my pain. Quess what it helped and do yourself the same.』

(Nice Beginner Program)
『This is my first yoga DVD and so far I don't think I could have made a better choice.

The length of the routines in the Getting Started section are all about 20-30 minutes. The instruction is really clear and the routines move at a comfortable pace. After about 3 weeks of using this DVD twice a week for about a half hour I started finding that that my body is able to do a little more each time and it's starting to really come together for me.

Remember to not skip the interview. You'll get some great info about the instructors approach and about yoga in general.』


(Very Nice)
『I borrowed a few videos from my sister. This was one I liked enough to get my own copy. I've enjoyed the variety of routines it offers. Different lengths and focusing on different things like hips, backbends, strength and others. This is a very nicely done video. Good, clear instruction, lots of variety and a lovely beach setting.』

(Men Do Yoga)
『My wife has been trying to get me to do yoga. I'm not the yoga type I told her I'd try a couple of her DVDs and see what I thought. I'll admit it, I was wrong about yoga. Half an hour in and I was hooked by how it made me feel. I started slowly, twice a week and have been sticking to it now for 4 months or so. Wish I'd listened to her earlier because I can see the added flexibility and different kind of conditioning really started helping me in my golf game, softball and other things like that.』

(I'm hooked on yoga now!)
『I wanted to give yoga a try for help in flexibility,so I purchased this DVD, and it has far exceeded my expectations. I think it will help me with flexibility( I've only had it a week),but it has helped me, surprisingly enough, in relaxing. I think the mental health benefits will outweigh the physical benefits for me. One routine in particular, "a gentle unwind" has been just wonderful. In fact, I've just ordered Barbara's "Yoga for Stress Relief" because this routine came from that DVD. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants physical activity that is truly relaxing and calming.』
『Yoga instructor Barbara Benagh has practiced and taught yoga for nearly 35 years. She discovered yoga while living in England and began teaching there. She moved to Boston and opened The Yoga Studio on Beacon Hill in 1980.

In addition to her local classes Barbara teaches yoga seminars throughout the US and internationally. She is a regular contributor of articles to Yoga Journal magazine.

(Good product, with caveats- updated: would give 5 stars)
『If you have perfect feet, bet these would be great...however.....most of us don't. I have some misshaped /hammer type toes (due to narrow shoes purchased when younger), and it's almost impossible to get the outside two toes into the forms. Perhaps this will get better with time, but if you have toes that aren't straight....might be dicey.

However, I really bought these because I wanted to stretch the other three (medial) toes, which do fit into the forms, and I think they will work well for this purpose.
(Can't say anything about the 'yoga' aspects about these- I just knew that the foam forms used for pedicures were insufficient, and I needed something more substantive.)
Specifically: I had joint replacement surgery on the ball of my foot (big toe), and it's resulted in crowding between the big toe and 'first toe', resulting in the formation of a corn on the sole of the foot (due to the lateral compression between the toes combined with normal vertical weight bearing in that area of my foot).

The forms do successfully stretch the space between these toes, and my foot does feel better- after ~ 2-3 uses. I paid<$7 for these at Walmart, so it does pay to shop around.

Takehome: Shop around for best price, be realistic about these (if you don't have perfect feet, don't expect them to fit perfectly), but they might be a useful, inexpensive tool to increase flexibility for the foot and toes.

Update- Applying a SMALL amount of lotion really helps to encourage stubborn toes into the forms. (not too much else they'll be too slippery and won't hold traction)

I've used these consistently for ~ 1 week, and honestly believe that they're saving me a trip to the podiatrist&have headed off the formation of a nasty corn in a bad location (ball of foot between great toe and nearest lateral toe). Best of all, my feet don't hurt as much, and seem to be improving with time.
System is not letting me increase the star rating, but I'd give them 5 stars at this point.』


(not bad for the price)
『it looks like the real version would be softer on the feet, these are a little hard - don't try to walk around with them but they do work. they are a little big but you can push them down onto your toes and they will stay.』

(Not as good as the brand name)
『I purchased the brand name first and was very happy with it. If you have bunions, etc. this help your foot. I've lost my Yoga toes and decided to purchase the cheaper version. The cheaper one are not as flexible and uncomfortable. I will buy again the brand name.』

(As I sit with them on, not moving my toes at all and watch them slip off...)
『I think, well there went ten bucks down the drain. I was going to return them but since I wore them I thought not. I have some ball of the foot and toe issues of late and saw the "real yoga toes" on a search and decided to save $25. Can't imagine the real ones being worth that much. Perhaps they are. I am using these "cheap"er ones now and do see some minor benefit from the idea. It's just that they keep sliding off. I am reaching down often to get back on. Perhaps my toes are too small. My husband laughed when he saw them on me and said "boy, did they see you coming"! LOL Well, try this... I remembered I had some pedicure toe seperator sponge things... low and behold... THEY STAY PUT!!! WOW! Who would have thunk for a dollar and 99cents you could get same effect! I suggest to try that first.』

(Wonderful! Just as good as the expensive ones!)
『I bought these instead of the expensive ones. I was really interested to see if these really worked, but I really didn't want to spend $35-$50 on the "real" ones. I figured the $10 plus shipping was worth the experiment. They do take some time to get used to ( about a week) and if you put some lotion on the toes that are sometimes difficult to insert into the holes (the smallest of my toes) then they work just fine. Lube up your big toe though, and they do slip a little. Gradually increasing the time that you wear them does help with the discomfort, even wearing them for 10 minutes, and them taking them off for 30 min to an hour and then back on for 10 minutes works great for me. Worth the money!』

Set of two,one size fits all.』

How are these DVDs different from other yoga DVDs?

I was drawn to working with Bodywisdommedia because they produce DVDs they are interactive. Rather than a "one size fits all" single routine that is typical of most products, these DVDs offer choice, allowing the user to customize and change their yoga practice to suit their needs. No two persons are the same so the ability to change your practice - easing shoulder tension one day and an invigorating morning wake up the next - come as close as possible to allowing you to address your individual needs at home. Not only do people have different physical needs, but they have different time constraints as well. If you have only 20 minutes, there is a practice for you but there are longer practices as well (some as long as 90 minutes) that address the total body/mind connection. The sheer number of yoga sequences offered on each of these DVDs is a first. They are incredibly comprehensive.

How were you able to get the Dalai Lama involved?

This project dovetailed perfectly with the Dalai Lama's message that modern stress is one of the greatest obstacles to our mental happiness and physical wellbeing. Because we are long-time sincere practitioners, having a 30-minute lecture of the Dalai Lama teaching how to meditate on theYoga for Stress ReliefDVD was a perfect fit. Bodywisdommedia also has a broader relationship with the Office of Tibet and are releasing historic lectures with "A Path to Happiness" being the first one.

How will potential buyers of these DVDs know which one is right for them?

The titles are very indicative of what appears on the DVD and therefore a good guide. I really enjoyed makingYoga for Stress Reliefbecause it is incredibly relevant. We strove to make the sequences accessible to as many people as possible, whether they are a beginner or long time practitioner.Yoga for Beginnersis a great, non-threatening place to get started and includes lots of sound technique developed over my 30 years as a yoga teacher.Power Yoga for Every Bodyis a bit more challenging taking you from the beginning level and gradually progressing to much more demanding routines.』
