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 can do, but you will really feel the burn. Segment 3: No Impact Aerobics really gets your circulation moving.

 Absolutely boring, August 29, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
How to say, very boring. Not sure if it even deserves at star. There seemed only a few work-outs on the DVD and it consisted mainly of repeating them ad nauseam. Perhaps being a college athlete this is not for me? When I found this DVD I was excited thinking it was a yoga work-out, instead I wouldn't even use it to warm-up. Seriously, I didn't even break a sweat. All-in-all, I would recommend this to the elderly and go back to my Pilates for Indie Rockers. A work-out that makes the sweat rain.
 Great exercises but poor audio August 27, 2008

The sessions in this DVD are very good but the audio is extremely poor. At times it was difficult to hear the narrarator over the breathing exercises.
A Perfect DVD August 24, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This DVD is perfect for when you only have 25 minutes to exercise. It will get you energized fast and get your metabolism revved up. This is great for the days when you can't make it to the gym. In fact, I've been going to the gym less than before because I actually prefer this workout. It's something I look forward to doing everyday.
The time just flies by August 24, 2008

The time just flies by, and I get a buzz from this Yoga.
The first time I did Ravi and Ana's DVD's I was a bit afraid, particularly of the breath of fire. This DVD made it seem like a natural way to breath. They do the breathing out loud so there is no confusion how you should be breathing.
I would recommend their "Kundalini Yoga for Beginners and Beyond" for the demonstration of the breath primer, though this "Fat Free" DVD is in my opinion more suited for beginners. I recommend BOTH to start with. "Fat Free for beginners & Beyond is, in my opinion, a must-have. I started with the "Kundalini Yoga for Beginners & Beyond", and "A Journey Through the Chakras". The latter is such a masterpiece as well. I read a review that it was worth the struggle to get through the exercises as best as possible. I've done that, and it has paid off.
I now have great arms, waist, hips, and thighs -- especially thighs. I can do the duration of most of the exercises, depending on the day. I have all of their DVD's except "Am PM". "The Warrior Workout" is the most challenging for me. I love it now; it is my favorite workout for days I want to be challenged.
I went to a gym for awhile, and I could not find classes that could compare with these at all. At a Yoga studio I went to, the floor is hard, and the direction is without as much inspiration. Ana does her Yoga on a little rug.
I like "Beauty Body", and "Dance the Chakras", and "Bliss Hips" for light to medium days as well.
The music on their DVD's is more and more superior over the years. I am smitten. I play the music in my car.
Back to the one I am reviewing, "Fat Free Yoga for Beginners & Beyond", there is everything from cardio to glands to cleanse. Of course there is a bit of meditation after exertions, so it does not go too fast. As usual, Ravi's verbal skills are apparent as he instructs with wisdom and clarity. Ana is the perfect, and happy model as she demonstrates the exercises in a lovely set with her and Ravi in voice over with that incredible music.
The time just flies by. There are some difficult moves that I cannot do properly, but I use props. I use blocks, pillows, and a strap occasionally. I am 53 years old with curvature of the spine, and this Yoga has helped my back!
This is great value for the money, especially when purchased from CHAKRA44 seller. It is worth a trip to http:www.raviana.com to see what Ana and Ravi have there about nutrition and fitness. Join their email newsletter, and receive great info every month.
Good mind & body workout August 21, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I've used this dvd twice, and I quite like it. Although its not an high impact workout I still find some of the poses quite challenging. The breath of fire can be quite difficult for someone new to Kundalini yoga, but it works. After the workout I feel very calm and full of energy at the same time. As for the fat burning part- I think thats working too but at a slower pace. For a complete mind and body workout, this dvd deserves 5 stars.
