This DVD is okay. All of the exercises are simple you just have to watch it first and then try the exercises otherwise you might not know what he’s talking about, if you’re not familiar with yoga.

I thought from reading all of the positive reviews and really no negatives that this was exactly the product that I was looking for.
I was in a car accident over a year ago and have 2 herniated discs and a messed up pelvis/sacrum. I have done constant therapy for the whole year with three different people. It could always get me better to a certain point and then I would backslide all the way back to where I started. I was told by an orthopedic doctor that I needed to have a sacroiliac fusion. You are out of commision for three months. That is not very appealing. I ordered this video hoping that it would work and it basically just offers stretching excercises that my PT already had me doing so it really did not help me. I think for some people it probably works well I am just usually the exception to the rule. I am going to try Prolotherapy next hopefully that will give me some relief.

I know part of yoga is to be calming, however you have to get tot the yoga…He just goes on and on and on and on…by now everyone in the world knows what yoga is.
Also the 3 segments are the same exercises…please…it wasn’t worth the money

The video is more suitable for people with less active life style. There are three exercise sessions in this video, each one is roughly 30 minutes long. It is recommended that you’d better get used to the first two exercises before doing the strongest one. They have positive effects and the instruction is clear. But in my experience, they are all too light.

Gets kind of stressful for my lower back after a bit, not bad but definitely a bit more tough than expected
