Yoga for Weight Loss (Deluxe 3 DVD set with over 35 routines)

Very good routines, but not really 35 different ones. Some are mix and match, counting as different routines when they are just longer or shorter by adding or deleting some segments. However, there are plenty of options. The cuing is excellent if you are familiar with the poses. There is not much instruction for someone who has never done yoga before. But, there is instruction on proper positioning and movement. These routines are good for all levels. I'm intermediate and in pretty good shape and I felt that even the "easy" routines were beneficial and the advanced were challenging, but doable.

I'm not brand new to yoga, but also by no means advanced. I'd say I'm just making the jump from experienced beginner to new intermediate. I do it for a strength and flexibility workout, and I have to say that this has been a great set. Power Yoga, it is a slower Power Yoga that is amazing for building muscle tone and really getting in tune with your body mechanics. The routines with hand weights on Weight Loss are also some of my favorites from any DVDs I have. The Flow Yoga is nice too. It has overall routines and also has routines that just focus on one part of the body, which is good if you have something you need to work on. If you are starting out to yoga, use the beginning and basics levels on the Power and Weight Loss. I used it as a refresher and it breaks things down well for beginners.

I have many yoga DVDs. This one has a ton of options and is, therefore, worth the price. The reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is that it does not flow as quickly as some of my more favorite tapes (my fave being Rodney Yee, Colleen Saidman, and S. Deason). It is rather slow with little breaks between the poses (probably so the poses can be spliced into other routines). However, the stretches and poses are deep and long enough to really feel good during, after the routine, and for the rest of the day or night. Although not in my top ten list, I would definitely recommend. I've been practicing yoga for 3 or 4 years, am in my 50's, and consider myself intermediate at best.

Of the three discs, I think I personally will get the most use from the Flow Yoga disc (although the different practices on that disc don't differ hugely from each other and all are a little heavy on the sun salutations). All three discs have lots of options, which is good, but the other two are less to my personal taste. I see from other comments that the instructor on the Weight Loss disc has a background in Iyengar yoga, and this is apparent, as the practice is very focussed on position and alignment and moves very slowly. The Power Yoga for Every Body disc is also VERY slow paced, although with a little more focus on breath and relaxation. In the end, this package deal wasn't as amazing as I originally thought, but as there are some variations on the Flow disc that I will incorporate into my regular rotation, and practices on the other two that I will do occasionally, I still feel that I have gotten my money's worth.

I had not really worked out using yoga before and was happy that the videos took that into account in this set with alot of material to work with that was easy and set up to instruct beginners, Probably around 1/3 or so were things that I was able to work with right away. Then there is still alot more to work with later on. Have done/watched some of the more than beginner workouts, and this will be something I can use These three DVDs have everything you need from, beginner level to very advanced level, so there is a good amount to work with. The workouts get longer and more challenging, and also include things on some videos using weights and toning bands on one of the DVDs. Very nice.

This set of 3 videos has helped me already start getting into shape. They are three completely different items with different focus, though they help you start off easy then add onto things. One DVD takes you from beginning easy moves and works from there. The second has three levels, with variations/changes/modifications on each level of the moves, so you can start as a beginner and move on to longer workouts and less modified versions of different poses with the appropriate differences in instruction and the last is a general flow, with really good warm-ups and cool downs that can be used with any workout (and which are the easiest) and longer flow workouts. Love the variations and differences between them, so there is always something that works in terms of time and difficulty/challenge.

I have been doing yoga for years and have not been able to get to an open gym so I thought this would be a great at-home experience. The woman performing the yoga moves if fine, but the moves are narrated by another person in an incredibly sing-songy, cringe-worthy voice that is far from relaxing. I am more stressed now than I was prior to the video. I am hoping I can return this set.

There is so much to do on these videos that it is a great bargain. Between all three, you get many levels of work. So if you are a beginner, there are things to do and when you workout more there are longer and more challenging workouts. If you are new/beginner - start with the Yoga Weight Loss DVD first level and Power first level. Mid -range - the later routines of the Weight Loss and start adding the weight and band section, depending where you are. Start with some of the Flow and Intermediate for Power Later - the weight and bands section of the Weight Loss, the Intermediate and advance of the Power Yoga and the Flow DVD I am working through along those lines (sometimes going into things that are past me just to get an idea how I am doing and what other things that are on the videos.) Many choices for the levels and choices of time to fit into the day.

Easy yet effective workout. Low impact. Instruction is great. Easy to follow along. Would highly recommend for a home workout.

great set of videos. Only major critique - that 3 videos are stacked on one central spindle instead of in multiple covers, or having inserts inside one cover. Flow yoga - a solid 4/5. Easy to follow, good variety, but nothing super extra special about it for me Weight loss yoga - 4.5/5. Easy to follow. Good integration of weights and straps. Power yoga - 5/5. loved the range of routines (beginner to challenging), variety of lengths of routines (10 minutes to 2 hours). Barbara Benagh narrates.

Great shipping time. Only on first DVD but so far so good.

Only 3stars because i just got them and haven't had time to watch them. I just wanted to point out that the cover of the set i got does not match the description of the one on amazon. The dvds in my set don't match the cover of the set i received. So, although they are both titled "power yoga", I'm not sure if the content is the same or different. I got a different set from the same "interactive series", and the same thing happened. It's misleading and disappointing. Not sure I'll buy from same collection again (at least not a set)

This is a good yoga practice easy to follow.
