Great for Beginners September 14, 2009 Staying Young (New Jersey) I bought this DVD because my abs needed toning, and I needed something that wouldn't be too strenuos yet would still be a beneficial workout. I am over 60 and not terribly flexible. Other abs workouts that I've tried were too difficult for me. Rodney Yee is so explicit in his instruction, and his voice is so soothing that I can do these exercises with my eyes closed. At the end of the DVD I feel both productive in helping to tone my abs and relaxed at the same time. Plus, I notice that my flexiblity is increasing. I have to modify some of the poses to suit my physical limitations, but I still notice an improvement in the way I feel and the way my clothes fit.
I enjoy this DVD so much that I bought another Rodney Yee DVD and plan to buy more, just for variety.
AN AB WORKOUT WITHOUT CRUNCHES August 10, 2009 J Bug (British Columbia, Canada) This workout although only 26 minutes long has basic yet progressively harder exercises and I definitely felt it working my abs by the end. Beginners shouldn't have any problems with this flowing sequence of poses and as usual Rodney's voice instruction is flawless. I think what I liked the most about ABS YOGA is that this is an Abdominal workout without crunches and I appreciated learning some different moves to help combat the muffin top.
Filmed in Death Valley National Park, the backdrop here is a beautiful desert setting. And although I recognized the ambient music from several other Yee DVD's, its pleasant enough and doesn't distract.
Beginning in a seated position the first part of this workout concentrates on breathing exercises then moves onto your hands and knees for Cat Pose and finally to your back where most of the workout is performed. With repetitions of knees to chest, head to knees and slowly lowering and raising your legs, you begin to feel the burn. Then Rodney leads us through side twists and several Half and Full Boat Poses which get progressively more difficult as does the burn. Towards the end we stand for Mountain Pose and Foreword Bend before sitting again into Staff and Cobblers Pose. The relaxation segment is short but well done and you'll come away feeling tighter and relaxed.
I believe this might be a good introduction to yoga for first timers, giving you a taste of the breathing and energy without overwhelming you with too many traditional yoga poses. And for those who do a regular yoga practice this is a great workout that you will definitely feel in your abs the next day. Namaste.
yoga dvd August 7, 2009 Country Gal (Illinois) Great product for those serious about getting back in shape.
Not for someone excessively over weight.
Subtle abdominal routine June 18, 2009 Amanda K. Reid (Seoul, Korea) I thoroughly enjoyed this DVD. After practicing twice per week, my core was noticably stronger. I also felt a stronger connection to my core. The moves are subtle and soothing, not the actions I would have associated with core strengthening. Now I have incorporated these movements when I do my "traditional" abdominal work-outs.
My only complaint: I wish the DVD had multiple workouts, not just one twenty minute segment.

I love Rodney Yee,but this was the only abs yoga tape out there when I made the purchase. I really wish I hadn't because it is very slow paced and not intense. This is really just for Beginners. Don't buy unless this is your first time ever working out.
