Customer comments on this selection.
 I love this DVD!
Cyndi Lee is one of my favorite instructors and I own most of the products that OM has created. She is a sweet and playful instructor that has created a great blend of yoga that almost anyone can do. There are modifications for some of the more challenging poses in the series which can be very helpful to a beginner. DVD contains some fun extras too - a tour of OM, an intro by Cyndi where she goes through a yoga sequence, shorter class options, etc. Overall, I think this would be a good addition to anyone's yoga collection.
 OM Yoga
This is not a beginner yoga dvd. There is not enough instruction on how to do each pose or proper breathing techniques. She rarely smiles! I would not recommend this video.
 Great Asana, Cyndi Needs to Shut Up
Overall, this is a great Asana with challenging pose sequences.
A few gripes:
1. The instructor (Cyndi) will not shut up for 5 seconds! It's hard to get into the poses when she is constatly speaking (often times not about yoga at all).
2.It gets old. There is really only one class on the DVD and it gets old fast.
Amazing!
I am not a certified yoga instructor/group fitness instructor/personal trainer, but about to graduate with my B.S in Exercise Science. I love this video b/c it is safe workout while still preserving the integrity of yoga. I don't recommend it for your first yoga video since it is a vinyasa flow style (Sean Corne is a great beginner workout), but if you have taken a few classes or done a few yoga dvds this a amazing. As a fitness instructor I urge people to ask their dr. before doing any exercise especially the backbends, headstands, and inversions. I is always better to take one live class with a certified/degreed instructor to make sure your form is correct, I urge this with any type of workout.
Relaxing and consistently interesting
I have purchased several yoga DVDs in the past, but always found myself bored after only a few viewings. This yoga routine is much different than the others in that it consistently engages you in your movement and thoughts at an effective pace. The meditation segments are great on those days that I need to relax but am feeling a little too lazy to go through the whole yoga routine. David Nichtern is great at explaining the history of each exercise and puts in simple words the difficult concepts that are usually associated with deep meditation. Aside from these positives, the music CD that comes inside the DVD is nice to have around, even in the car, to take a mental break whenever it's convenient. It helps me to remember the methods David teaches in his segment and get right back into the swing of things. I'm very pleased with my purchase and feel this is one of the best meditation/yoga combination DVDs ive seen.
