Description The chakra system represents the complete spectrum of the human experience. Through Kundalini Yoga's special blend of breathing, movement, stretching, meditation, and chanting, you'll shine like the sun! This comprehensive, 90 min. complete body/mind/spirit workout offers exercises and meditative techniques for each of these energy centers, as well as, inspired commentary to help assess where your blocks are and how to transform them. For instance, the Navel Center or Manipura Chakra (Wheel of Many Jewels) supplies energy which helps us sustain intent. The Heart Center or Anahata Chakra relates to compassion, expanded horizons, and going beyond, as in put your heart into it. This DVD is for all levels and conveniently chaptered to help you vary your workout or focus on those segments most relevant to the issues pending in your life. 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 also features great music by Tom Carden.

a fantastic Kundalini experience August 11, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This past weekend I fell back in love with this set; from start to finish it really covers all the bases in terms of a great opening breath meditation, two amazing sets that can be done as one long class or separately if you like, and closing with wonderful meditation as always.
Some of the earlier videos I love but find the music or sound quality to be a bit distracting, but from this batch of vids on they've all been so damn good! Great cues, wonderful information about the chakra system as you do your work and I have to confess I am a big fan of any set that includes the Kundalini Lotus position (holding your big toe and raising your legs in front of you in a V position as you balance on your tailbone).
This is a set that's thorough but not exhausting, so I was even able to do this in addition to my daily sadhana set without feeling like it was too much.
And the 7 Wave Sat Nams at the end...pure heaven.
So many times I've popped this one in thinking I'd just do one of the two sets or skip the meditations in the interest of time or because I was feeling lazy but I always get swept up in the amazing feeling of climbing that ladder of lights...and what a gorgeous visual analogy that is!
FYI- There is also a shorter chakra set on the beginning of Dance the Chakras, that covers you from bottom to top in about 30 minutes, if you'd like a complimentary class option for days when you'd like to climb that ladder but don't have the time and don't want to choose one or the other of these sets. I find that shorter set to be a great morning class for overall energizing, grounding and awakening.
Keep in mind that you will learn some valuable things as you go along, such as what each chakra relates to, how imbalances or blocks might manifest and what exercises you can do at any time to heal those issues on your own. Very empowering.
Overall, I'd say this is among their finest DVDs, in terms of content, comments, music and the choice of meditations and sets.

Ladder of Lights - Fire of Awareness June 8, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a very subtle DVD yet it is priceless for people which seek balance, clarity, to enhance awareness and bring peace to their life. Unlike physical exercises these benefits are accumulative and build up over time - even after two years I feel that it opens gradually new levels. For anyone going through a time of transformation, test or is stuck in an emotional past this will support you noon else could. More than words I recommend to experience these exercise for those who a curious (even though I would first recommend one of the other DVD's of Ravi&Ana). Really give it a go for 3 weeks (best every day) or better a months & see for yourself! This experience will speak for itself. For those on a spiritual path of any kind this is a priceless tool to connect outer and inner nature and definitely support you path.
This will work you Head to Toe! May 20, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This starts with warmups, then you stand for Chakra 1 and do some leg strengthening(such as Archer Pose which is Warrior Pose Kundalini style, and Tree Pose with the balance on one leg at a time). Then you do Crow Pose which is squatting with Breath of Fire. Then you start Chakra 2 which focuses on opening the hip area. Then Chakra 3 involves some great core work that will get your abs burning. Chakra 4, and up ,involves opening up the upper back and chest and gives great arm work. I really love the way Kundalini Yoga combines movement and the breath to help you release into the pose and clear up energy blocks in the body. The first time I did the entire thing I felt I had a breakthrough in my life. I had a buzz for literally days. I have almost every one of the Ana & Ravi programs and I love every one of them. This one, like all the others, can be broken up into sets if you don't have time for the whole program. This is my Sunday workout. Highly recommended!
A Wonderful Journey May 20, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This has everything you could ever want from a yoga DVD and more. It's a great physical workout, plus it takes your progressively through the energy centers up the spine to work through blocks relating to your life. So, in one DVD you're getting fitness, life guidance, and spiritual uplift. Each time I do this I feel that something profound has happened on every level. This DVD also has great music and great commentary. It's a bit challenging but it gives you something to work towards. If you're reading this and still on the fence by all means go for it!
