POWER YOGA: for Every Body

I was happy with the Flow Yoga for Strength & Flexibility also released by Body Wisdom Media, so I thought that I would try this one out. Especially since I enjoy Power Yoga!

The routines are demonstrated by the individual picture on the cover. The cinematography makes me think that it was filmed less recently than the Flow Yoga for Strength & Flexibility DVD. And while the cover is badly photoshopped, I think it is interpretive and trying to say something like, "this is how you will feel after using this DVD in the morning."

This DVD is split up into three different categories, Beginning, Intermediate and Challenging routines. Because each category has so much content I have only completed one from each section thus far and I will come back later and update it as I complete more of them. My hope is that it will prove to be a good DVD for any level!

Here is what you will find on this DVD:

Beginning Routines: (From what I can tell this is for true beginners and inflexible people who are just starting to explore yoga)

• Good Morning (20 min)-Begins with some stretches to help get the blood circulating. After you have completed the stretches you will move on to a highly modified sun salutation series. This includes the use of a chair and your mat. This would be a great routine for true beginners, those wanting to build flexibility (after some cardio, etc).
• Good Morning Extended (40 min)
• Invigorating Practice (40 min.)
• Strength & Balance (40 min)
• Balanced Energy (60 min)
• The Full Workout (80 min)
• Quieting Energy (35 min)
• Good Night (15 min)

Intermediate Routines: (for beginners with some experience)

• Good Morning (25 min)-The same first 11 minutes of the coordinating Beginning sequence with a lightly modified sun salutation. Good for beginners that are ready for the next level without the chair!
• Good Morning Extended (45 min)
• Invigorating Practice (50 min)
• Strength & Balance (50 min)
• Balanced Energy (65 min)
• The Full Workout (1 hr 40 min)
• Quieting Energy (40 min)
• Good Night (15 min)

Challenging Routines: (for the intermediate to advanced home yogi)

• Good Morning (40 min)-This one starts again with the same first 11 minutes used in all of the morning sequences. This is probably good because you don't want to do anything to crazy as your first routine in the morning. You continue into a longer and more advanced sun salutation that feels great in the morning!
• Good Morning Extended (65 min)
• Invigorating Practice (65 min)
• Strength & Balance (70 min)
• Balanced Energy (90 min)
• The Full Workout (2 hr)
• Quieting Energy (40 min)
• Good Night (15 min)
