(Great CD for my yoga classes!) 『With over 40 songs and sound meditation moments just on the first CD of Namaste! this set gave me lots of tools and ideas to work with for teaching my yoga classes. For example, I found the song "Being Present" to be a good lead in for meditation practice with children and even with adults in my classes. I have played "Being Present" as a listening meditation to center my students at the beginning of class. It makes a great introduction to seated meditation focusing on the breath. I have also played "Being Present" at the end of yoga class as encouragement for my students to continue noticing times during the day when they are "being present" while engaged in day to day activities. Listening to "Being Present" has helped my students find easy and fun ways to focus on meditation practices. It's been an instant "hit".

(Fabulous Teaching Resource) 『Namaste! is an amazing education tool for children and adults to learn and practice together the beautiful art of yoga. A great resource for teachers who want to integrate songs and movement into classroom use and teach their students a fun yet physically and mentally rich practice.
There are so many original songs in this collection. In fact, there are so many tracks! Songs, guided meditations, guided postures - this is a rich resource for inspiration and teaching. Plus, the booklet is a treasure trove of information. All the lyrics are included, with suggestions for using the songs with specific poses and parent/teacher notes that give more in depth background into the yoga perspective.
For those new to yoga the parent/teacher notes are a helpful background, and can deepen your understanding of the purpose behind the yoga exercises.
For those that already practice yoga, the liner notes are helpful in seeing the yogic context that these songs and meditations are based in.
For yoga teachers and classroom teachers the liner notes provide useful tips for integrating the songs into their teaching or even creating their own songs for classroom use.
In addition to basic information on specific yogic breathing practices, including details on belly breath and 3 part breath, the parent/teacher notes also include information on: the role of affirmation songs and nada yoga, mindfulness meditation, managing stress, gratitude, guided imagery and cultivating inner peace.
I was so impressed with the collection on Namaste! that we decided to carry it in the shop in our yoga studio. It's an excellent resource for our teachers that work with children. And our yoga students find that Namaste! is a fun ways to share yoga with the children in their lives. 』

I highly reccomend it for anyone!』
(A Great Buy for Kids and Adults Alike) 『I bought "Namaste!" upon a recommendation by a friend, and boy have the CDs exceeded my expectations! We have listened to the CDs in the car during trips (we have three boys) and listen to them at home as well.
The tunes are catchy, the boys pick them up and hum them when they are doing their chores (so maybe I used this music to "focus" the boys during their chores). Many of the "ditties" are good for introducing new poses or transitioning into something new (even in every day activities). For a novice yoga family, this music collection is fun, positive, and inspiring.』 『NAMASTE! Songs, Yoga&Meditations for Young Yogis!

Just add this one to the list, these are much longer selections however so if you don't like a certain track -- then 1 third of the cd is not usefull to you, but I think you will like all of them! - Jim
Ps.. The Serenity CD is my fave.. so far!』
(Perfect for craniosacral work) 『This cd is perfect for craniosacral work. After a craniosacral session I left this cd in my player and did a few massages. My clients got off the table like zombies! They all commented on the music and said they were more relaxed and enjoyed the massage more than normal. Highly recommended!』
(Slow World by Liquid Mind) 『This is an excellent music CD for deep relaxation, massage, acupuncture treatments, yoga, meditation, or getting the baby to sleep. It maintains a consistent "zoney" quality from beginning to end with no tempo change, no surprises. The instrument is a synthesized keyboard and the chord progressions take long gradual steps up and down. That's it.』
(Really good stuff) 『I use this CD to put yself to sleep at night, after a horrible day. Never fails to relax me, and put my mind at rest. Thanks, Chuck!』
(Bradycardia) 『A follow up to Liquid Mind #1; Ambience Minimus (which is a wonderful CD). Slow World follows the same tonal layered formula of #1, but is benign and energyless. It's linear evolution is similar, but it's field of space is shallow. Leaving the listener bored. I agree with "spotlight reviewer" Mr. King. It will put you to sleep. But thats not what good ambient music is intended for. The intent of a good slow book is not to put you to sleep, but rather to give you something to dwell upon. Ambient music also gives you a field allowing your consciousness to wander.』 『Slow Worldis the second album of deep relaxation music by Liquid Mind, the name used by Los Angeles composer&songwriter Chuck Wild for his series of very slow stress relief music albums. My Liquid Mind albums seem to have an immediate "slowing down" effect onlisteners, and may help people get to sleep, or to calm down after a tension-filled day. uninterrupted relaxation, the ideal companion for those working long hours at computers terminals who suffer from the effects of stress. The music of Liquid Mind is great music to massage to, great music to create to, great music to go to sleep by, great music for those intimate moments with one you love. This functional and peaceful album is also used by parents to quiet hyperactive children, and to assist themselves in going back to sleep in the middle of a difficult night.』

Yoga For The Young At Heart
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Truly Yoga for Everyone!) 『I have owned this recording (first in VHS which we wore out, now in DVD) for many years. It is the only one of its kind that we all can do without giving up in frustration. I own many others, but have learned that when the routine starts out with the instructor in Lotus position, you might as well give up. And even though Susan Winter Ward is pictured in the Lotus position, there's none of that on the actual video. Her instructions are clear and motivating, her participants are real people who despite their age put my 29-year-old daughter to shame, and the routine is easily adapted to your individual level but still very effective. Never once do you feel like you might as well give up because you'll never get there. This is truly the very best for 'the rest of us'. If you are the typical office dweller and are trying to increase your flexibility and learn to deal with the stresses of daily life, buy this video no matter what your age!!』
(disappointed--) 『I purchased this video based on the all the favorable reviews and, as an older beginner, I am quite disappointed by it. There are no modifications shown for the poses and, although there are older people participating in the class, they are all able to do everything with no problem. This is discouraging. It does not show how to modify the poses using props of any kind. I am still looking for a video that shows more variation.』
(Not just for older folks!) 『This is one of the best yoga videos I've ever used. I originally bought this for my 85 year old mother (I'm 45) and liked it so well I got one for myself. It's a nice, slow, relaxing session that targets virtually every part of the body with nice easy stretching. I would also recommend Kripalu Yoga Dynamic by Stephen Cope. Young at Heart is a much shorter session which is nice when there's not a lot of time. The Kripalu tape is a much longer - about 90 minutes.』
(Great video.) 『I'm new at this and I find this video"do-able". I am not flexibility at all but I hope to improve in time. This video gets you breathing and moving, and I find myself looking forward to this 45 minute workout. It doesn't ask you to do anything crazy. You'll feel better.』
(Great for beginners of any age.) 『My wife and I are in our thirties and have never done yoga of any kind before. Both of us want to gain more flexibility and strength. We envy the the flexibility of some of th seniors in the video regardless thier age. We have tried other yoga videos from our local and library but keep coming back to this one.』 『Yoga for the Young at Heart introduces older adults to accessible yoga. Through yoga, you can create health, strength, flexibility, and a sense of inner serenity.
Especially for seniors and less flexible beginners over 50, these gentle stretching exercises inspire and support increased vitality, strength and flexibility. This "flowing yoga" class links the poses together in a continuous sequence that allows the student to access poses gently and naturally.
An encouraging class of students ranging in age from 45 to 82 will inspire you! In a soothing voice, Susan guides the class with specific directions for moving in and out of the poses, as well as controlled breathing. Relaxing music accompanies the class and sets the mood for this motivational video to inspire beginning yoga students to achieve a stronger body and more peaceful mind.』
IPhone 3G used's review (Balance Ball Fitness- Upper Body) 『I like this program a lot. It is a challenge, but doable. I would recommend getting the lower body workout as well.』
(Good for shoulder back area) 『I've had this video for two weeks and I can already see some definition in the sholder region and especially behind my upper arm. I like the yoga style of this video as well of the relaxing effect afterwards. This isn't an energizer but it does work. If you are looking for a video that tones the bicep/tricep area I would suggest against this one.』
(Great workout!) 『After the first time doing this, my arms and upper body were sore for 2 days! This tape works muscles I didn't even know I had. Suzanne's yoga syle of exercise is very relaxing too. After the workout, you'll feel refreshed and energized. Pair this tape with another BalanceBall workout, and you'll have a great hour of exercise.』
(Very effective) 『Another great Deason workout. Really challenges those upper body muscles. Great for the arms, back, abs, etc.』
(A Wonderful&Creative Idea on Workout!) 『It combines yoga&pilates by using just a ball which in turn is loved by my 5-month old boy. It's creative&helps create awareness in movements. Unlike weight-training, this ball-exercise is more interesting&efficient. Bravo!』 『Yoga and Pilates instructor Suzanne Deason combines moves inspired by both disciplines and adds the extra balance challenges of a stability ball in this 40-minute video. The exercises target the chest, arms, shoulders, back, and abdominals, with special attention to the core postural muscles. (Whenever you're balancing on the ball, you're working your abdominals and back together with the other muscles you're targeting.)
You'll need a BalanceBall or other stability ball for this workout. Deason shows you first how to use and feel comfortable with it, then she progresses through a selection of exercises: ball squeezes with the forearms for the chest, upper-body lifts from a draped-over position for the back, pushups (legs are on the ball, hands on the floor, midbody in the air, abs tightly contracted), and more. You'll feel long, lean, and strong after this workout.
Deason is a soft-voiced, patient instructor, explaining clearly and demonstrating beautifully. The scene is a wood deck overlooking a woods and stream. Quiet music plays in the background.--Joan Price』
IPhone 3G used's review (Disappointed) 『The Amazon review above states =Newcomers and out-of-practice participants will find an informative and approachable program in the 30-minute beginner's form=. I beg to differ. Never have I been so disappointed from an Amazon purchase and misled from the overwhelmingly chipper reviews. I found the tape frustrating, lacking clear instructions or enough "variations" of the poses for people who aren't contortionists. You indeed need to watch the tape a few times to even attempt to keep up with the pace. Unless you really are comfortable with yoga for a few years, I say try another tape. I'm going right now to sell mine online. I hope someone buys it.』
(David Swenson, a true yoga master) 『This is a pleasant video, David Swenson has a voice that is easy to listen to, and the setting is pretty. This is a good video if you do not have time to work out. All three workouts consist of a lot of sun salutations and basic stretches, so if you are looking for more variety in poses, or are an advanced student, you would be better to get the advanced series by David. If you are new to yoga, this is a good video, although it may be a good idea to get a book and learn sun salutations, as not much detail was given on this pose sequence. Ashtanga yoga is truly the ultimate workout, benefitting cardio and strength as well as flexibility. It is a true eastern yoga form, based on Raja yoga. Unlike Bikram "hot" yoga, a western creation, you do not need to turn up the temperature in the room. Your body generates its own heat,during the exercise, so you are loose and flexible, ready to stretch. You will feel incredibly energized and feel the pain ease from tired muscles within just 15 minutes!』
(Outstanding Introduction to Yoga) 『I have been practicing yoga for the last four years. My first experience with yoga came via a video by Rodney Yee. Soon afterward, I purchased"The Practice Manual"(a book by David Swenson). I was amazed at the depth and accuracy of the asanas in"The Practice Manual". As a result, I eventually purchased this video (actually, I have it on DVD, but Amazon doesn't currently carry the DVD).
Mr. Swenson introduces the video by admitting that most people don't have 1.5 hours per day to practice yoga (which is what the full Primary Series of Ashtanga Yoga demands). Over the years, he has adapted many of the asanas from the Primary Series into shorter 15, 30, and 45 minute sessions. I have practiced each of the varying sessions on the video, and I find them all useful for what they are.
If I simply don't have much time, the 15 minute session helps abate the guilt of not doing any exercise in a given day. I sometimes choose the 30 minute workout in the morning because I don't have the energy to perform some of the more demanding asanas (postures) that the 45 minute workout requires. I practice the 45 minute routine when I'm ready for a more serious workout. Sometimes I mix up the different routines for a two-a-day workout.
The instruction is clear and concise. Alternate postures are provided so that your practice can grow at your pace. I have particular interest in the alternate positions because my shoulders aren't very flexible. Through steady practice, I've been able to achieve the more difficult postures because of the less demanding"alternate"postures that are provided on the video. It's quite satisfying to finally touch hands together in Marichyasana A.
Most importantly, this video provides a window to a more involved yoga practice. The 45 minute workout is a great introduction to the Primary Series (a.k.a. First Series), which is another video by Swenson (and also the main subject of his"The Practice Manual"book). I can easily recommend this video because of the benefits I've experienced through its use.』
(Good for beginner) 『I am a beginner who has tried yoga before but never made the commitment to keep it up. The 15 minute workout is just right for me to get started. And the relaxation portion caps it off. David Swenson does not talk too much and all that he says is relevent to the routine so you don't get sick of listening to this tape over and over. His voice is soothing and soft. I am working my way up to the longer routines. If this is available on dvd it would be easier to switch from one routine to another.』
(Fabulous!) 『I ordered this video about a year and a half ago, and it sat on my shelf until rather recently. Now I remembered why I bought it. And boy, am I sorry that I let the thing languish on my shelf. I've been using the 30 minute workout in the morning, and the 45 minute session when I get home from work, and I don't think I can get sick of it. David Swenson's voice is so calming, and he provides just the right encouragement. I really like the breath cues, and the emphasis on"it's YOUR practice, do only what you can do, but don't be afraid to challenge yourself". I find myself losing all sense of time and easily moving into a meditative state when I do this tape. Which is basically the point of yoga. The tape is that good. I prefer Swenson's presentation over Richard Freeman's. While Freeman has his strengths as a teacher, something about Swenson just clicks with me. Maybe it's because he lets you stay in the pose a bit longer, to really feel it. Although the tape is great for those beginning to study Ashtanga and for people who consider themselves"advanced"when it comes to flexibility, I would not recommend this tape to the beginning yogi/yogini, unless you have a lot of natural pretzel in you.』 『Yoga Short Formsdelivers three distinct workouts geared toward a variety of fitness levels. Each set is centered on the Ashtanga method and is masterfully taught by David Swenson. "Short form" is an accurate way to describe these quick and effective lessons. Swenson kicks off this session with a 15-minute quickie set that even the busiest practitioner can schedule. If you are crunched for time this to-the-point training will provide deep-breathing exercises and limbering movements in a concise layout. These postures are not at an introductory level, and first-timers may want to preview the beginner set before tackling this one. Newcomers and out-of-practice participants will find an informative and approachable program in the 30-minute beginner's form. Proper terminology, alignment, and breathing are taught with great attention to body awareness. Participants who have graduated from the basics of yoga will find a comfort zone within the 45-minute session designed for intermediates. Although this session is formatted for the moderate practitioner, the advanced student will find an outstanding workout here. Deeper stretches and more difficult postures comprise this sweat-inducing set. Ten minutes of deep relaxation close out this program. Keep in mind that all participants will need a mat or towel, remember that a warm-up before beginning deep poses will aid in pliability and reduce injury. Swenson's true abilities are articulated throughout this video, and his calm and poise only add to the overall experience. This format provides a workout that can produce both strength and stamina for the frequent participant without a huge time commitment.--Olivia Voigts』

I have done the first 3 at least a dozen times each, and was going to move to new ones. I was a bit disappointed in that the Yoga Quick Fixes is very similar to some of the other 2 DVDs - Fat Free Yoga - and I was really looking for new moves. I admit I have only done 25 minutes into the DVD......still, Kundalini by Ana and Ravi is the best home practice.』
(You will be pleased with your purchase) 『This is a great DVD. It has something for everyone. The main warm up is one of my favorites. Ravi and Ana provide great voice overs and perfect timing. My only problem is that once I put the dvd in the player , I often want to do the entire dvd instead of 1 or 2 segments!! It is certainly a keeper~ being a 2 year Kundalini yogi, I feel it has poses that everyone beginner to advanced can do! Edited to add: I did the So Long Sciatica set for 40 days in a row. I improved tremendously at being able to sit with one leg on top of the other and bending forward. It is a great set for opening your hips.』
(Kundalini Yoga is like Prozac on a disk!) 『I discovered Kundalini Yoga about a year ago. I went with a friend to a class after work one evening. I have been hooked ever since. I don't have the time to go to classes every day, but I knew I had to find a way to make Kundalini Yoga a daily commitment. I discoverd Ana and Ravi! I have almost all of their DVD's now! I particularly like Yoga Quick Fixes because I can make my practice as long or as short as I want. The only thing I would change about it is for it to have the matrix, it makes it so much easier to customize and maximize my time.
The first hour of my day is devoted to Kundalini Yoga. I rise just before dawn and spend at least thirty minutes on myself before I leave for my job as a therapist in the Jail. The calm I feel when I have finished my practice stays with me throughout the day and has helped me deal with many difficult situations at work. It has become more to me than just exercise,its about being in touch with my mind, body and spirit, and feeling that peace first thing in the morning. Whenever I need a quick pick-me-up. I do breath of fire, my mind clears, and I can focus again. So Darshan Chakra Kria, is my favorite breathing exercise. When I started I could only manage about two sets, now I am up to eight! and I can do the whole sixteen counts!
When I get home, I belly dance, and I have noticed that my movements are much more fluid. My sciatica has gone! my posture has improved, my A1C count is down, and I feel ALIVE! Everyone should be exposed to this healing artform! Thank you Ana and Ravi, for making these DVD's accessible and affordable. That first hour of the day between waking and Dawn is my favorite hour of the day! "May the long time sun shine upon you, may ALL love surround you, and the pure light within you, guide your way on! Satnam.』
(Another Great One!!) 『This one is just as amazing as all the others, but it has the added bonus of giving you quick and effective workouts! For those of us who sometimes find ourselves short on time, this is a must have!!!』
(Excellent Kundalini Video-- A Must Have for Yogis of All Levels!!!) 『This video is great because it breaks the workouts into manageable pieces. Try to fit a small 5-25 minute workout into your day when you first wake up or get home from work in the evening and begin to experience an amazing difference in your life!! The video also contains segments that concentrate on specific issues such as anxiety or depression which is nice. There are over 3 hours of mini-sets to choose from!!!
Ana&Ravi are sincere in their instructor and extremely knowledgeable. You will find yourself transformed after a few short sessions. A+ review from a satisfied customer!

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Great Controlled Power) 『I am enjoying this DVD. It is great Power Yoga without quick movements. Instead you move into each pose and really get into each pose and what it is doing. Although it is not quick, you still feel the workout and power of the pose. I have taken some of the quicker moving power yoga courses, but had found them too fast moving when I started and really like the slower controlled power on this DVD.
It has helped improve my yoga practice, including being able to work into some of the faster power yoga practices I previouosly could not do, and if you are looking for something that is powerful but not quick, this is a good option. The instructor's really provides great guidance and I am now working through the Intermediate section, which is a very good workout so far.』
(Good but not power) 『This is an excellent dvd, don't get me wrong. However, I wouldn't go as far as to call it "Power" Yoga. Sure, it could be an introduction into power yoga, but if you're looking for a little bit quicker flow and a good yoga "workout" this might not be it. But, at the same time the dvd is excellent at explaining the postures and proper alignment of the postures. I also recommendTAMARA'S YOGA FUSION』
(Yummm!) 『This is a great yoga vid! It is packed with options for all levels. Clearly demonstrated and explained at a nice pace. Lots of floor work though, not for the weak wristed.』
(Power And Strength) 『As others have noted this DVD is not a fast power yoga workout. It is a slower version in order to focus on really getting into poses and developing technique.
But though it is slower it is still a very good workout. There is a wide range of routines and poses with easier/shorter workouts and modified poses for beginners which increases in the intermediate section and is really extended in the challenging section - The beginning level has 8 routines ranging from 15 Minutes to 80 Minutes, the Intermediate level has 8 routines from 15 Minutes to an hour and 40 minutes, and the Challenging level has 8 routines from 15 Minutes to 2 Hours.
The model, Jason, has excellant form and the instructor, Barbara, is wonderful, her voice is soothing and the music is relaxing. Not the fanciest set, but it does not detract from the instruction.
If you are looking for a fast paced power yoga video this DVD is not for you. If you are looking for something different or are beginning and need to grow into good technique while developing strength, then by all means pick this DVD up. It is full of power in its own way.』

I couldn't even watch all the way through the programs. I watch first, so I can preview before I do the dvd.
