Customer Reviews of Wai Lana Yoga: Beginners Workout

Highly Recommended!
I found this easy series just right for me as a beginner and this "Beginners Workout" DVD is my favorite in the series. I have had to do some for less time than shown and have over the last couple months strengthened incredibly. This is really the only exercise I do and my muscles are firm and movement is coming much easier for me. When finished I feel like I've had a full body workout. It is refreshing and energizing.

Wai Lana has a soothing voice that my husband calls monotone, but I find is slightly melodious and very easy to ignore when I'm doing something else, but easy to hear and calming to listen to when I do. She moves between poses rather quickly, but after a while I got used to this. If this is bothersome to you at first you can do the "One Asana at a time" or just do the poses in less time to give you time to rest more between poses. Wai Lana has beautiful outfits that change throughout each session and a variety of beautiful backgrounds. Her outfits are very modest and not form fitting (a plus for men who don't want distraction). She wears an elastic belt around her waist, which helps you see what she is doing with her waist. She is very descriptive of how to do the poses and what benefits you are getting. Because her voice is non-intrusive it isn't irritating that she talks most of the time. She says nothing extraneous that would distract you from the pose and over a long period of time of using the DVD hearing her say the same things each time also doesn't get irritating.

On the main menu you have "Start Workout", "Extras", and Introduction (which is the same on each DVD). The "Start Workout" is the entire work out for that DVD. The workout itself consists of about 35 minutes of asanas. After that is a time of music and meditation. Under "Extras" it lists "One Asana at a time", which does as it says; "Customize your workout", this lets you do the asanas (poses) in any order you wish with 17 asanas and 20 slots for your choices, so you can do one more than once or some not at all as you don't have to fill all the slots; "Guidelines" this is a basic rundown of things to do and not to do to get the most out of it and prevent injury; "Wai Lana's Little Yogi's", this includes some snippets advertising her children's DVD; and "More from Wai Lana", which covers all the things she has to sell - her other DVDs and tapes, her music CDs, mats, etc. You can also see those things on her website: www.wailana.com.

The DVD comes with an illustrated book showing a picture of each asana, its English name, and what it physically benefits most. This is useful if you are going traveling and don't have a DVD player, doing the set outside, or if you want to do the set at your own pace.

There is also an option on the main screen of each that allows you to change from English to Spanish.

This Beginner's DVD includes these asanas: Blowing tree, Hummingbird, Folding Triangle, Wraparound Twist, Diving Pose, Krishna Pose, Churning Butter, Easy Arrow, Boomerang, Easy Wheel, Easy Spinal Twist, Easy Bow, Mini Sit-up, Head Roll, Cannonball, Yoga Nidra, and Meditation.

Side note: the asana Wai Lana is doing on the front of each DVD cover is not included on that DVD, so don't pick the DVD(s) you buy by the asana pictured on the front.

Beautiful scenery
The backgrounds on this DVD are so gorgeous! As for the workout itself, I am new to yoga, not in great shape and can do most everything on it. Afterwards I definitely feel like I've had a workout. I am enjoying it very much!

Highly Recommend!!!
Wow! This DVD is fantastic! I am new to Yoga and this was gentle but not so much that you are bored. You should be a little fit to do some of the exercises though. Wai has such a soothing voice and the DVD has beautiful backgrounds, images, and music. The work-out closes with a meditation with lovely music and images. It is a very relaxing close to the sessions and will leave you feeling very refreshed. The DVD is around 50 minutes long with a nice introduction and you can also go to each exercise in the DVD by using the chapter menu or you can even set up the exercises in the order YOU want to go in. I would say this DVD is perfect for not only beginners at Yoga but those who practice Yoga already but do not want too "heavy" of a work-out. This was well worth my money and I look forward to buying more of her Yoga DVDs! You cannot go wrong with this one. :)
