 Avoid this DVD September 8, 2008

I do not recommend this DVD (it is already in my garbage). Just to take one example, the soundtrack is a disaster (peepy voice, the music does not invite to relaxion or focus, quite the contrary actually...). The rest is as disappointing...
Power yoga with emphasis on back exercises September 4, 2008

I really like the flow in this dvd, and the sequences are really good. Note, this is not a restorative practice, this is power yoga with some emphasis on back exercises. I don't think this is a good workout for people with acute back pain. I have chronic back pain for a year now due to an injury. I don't think I could have done this dvd 6 months ago. My pain right now is chronic but not intense, so I could do the practice and It felt good. However, even though I really like the workout, I didn't enjoy the instructor's voice that much. She seems to be a nice lady, but sometimes I got very distracted by her voice. But overall is a nice power yoga practice.
 too many sun salutations and too peppy voice March 21, 2008

I would have liked the dvd better if there had been less repetiton of sun salutations and there would have been more back opening work/back bends. Plus her voice is like a cheerleader on meth. It really is not that bad, but compared to the soothing voices of other yoga teachers, her voice can get distracting. It said in her background that she had had many years of dance training, and so I thought maybe she would be like Rodney Yee; she is not. If you want a dvd that will open your back and hips with an excellent teacher, I would recommend Yoga for Stress Relief with Barbara Benagh. That dvd has a variety of routines and the instructor is very knowledgeable. It is excellent. This dvd is not a bad dvd, but if Nolan had added some more posses, turned down her voice, and did some more back work, I would have liked the dvd more.

This is a great workout for the back and hips. This past autumn I fell and hurt my lower back. The fall left me with less mobility and I woke up every morning with soreness and tightness; also I was sore and tight if I sat too long. After doing this workout for about 3 wks or so I was back to my normal, mobile, pain-free self. This workout helped rebuild the area and helped me regain my flexibility. Bear in mind, I was in good shape to begin with, I've been practicing yoga for 7 years and I did allow myself time to heal after my fall. You'll want to speak with your doctor before you start any kind of excercise after an injury. If your physician says OK to yoga, this one is an excellent choice!
For people in average to above average physical condition July 5, 2007

This is a routine for people who are in good health and know the basics of yoga positions. It will help relieve daily stresses on the lower back while strengthing areas that are weak.
