Summary: EXTRAORDINARY
Review: This is a awesome yoga workout!! i'm a 14 year old dancer who was looking for something to improve my flexability and balence, and this is perfect! i think yoga is really cool, and this vhs just brings it a level higher. Kristin Mcgee is a wonderful teacher and explains everything very throughly. the reminders of "inhale, exhale" are perfect, because i tend to forget to "breathe."
i also like how she shows the three levels of experiance. this way i know i will not be stuck as a beginner on this tape. it's like three workouts wrapped into one!
overall, i recommend mtv yoga to anyone who wants to try something new and get in shape while they are having fun!

Summary: WOW
Review: Ok, so they say this is good for beginners and such, but I would disagree. Awesome workout, yes. But if i didn't know many of the poses already I'd be totally lost. But if you know something about yoga, go nuts cuz this definately gets your heart working! :)

Summary: A must have for Yoga fans!!
Review: i have been taking yoga classes for about 2 years and was very pleasantly surprised by this yoga dvd- it is faster paced with upbeat background music. Not your typical yoga exercise!
it features the vinyasa flowing style of yoga where one pose flows into another. Hosted by Lori (from RW- back to new york) who is the beginner and shows easier modifications to the poses. there is another woman and a guy who show intermediate and advanced poses--this is great so that this workout can continue to evolve with your experience level and flexibility.

the instructor, kristin, is quite good- she is not obtrusive or annoying and is a very good "breath" coach. she reminds you to breath in/out at the appropriate times and does each pose with 1 breath intervals which makes the yoga flow and seem faster paced. I definately thought this made it more cardio than most yoga tapes.

the workout begins with little warmup and then goes into the typical yoga poses
**sun salutations

**standing poses (triangle/warrior 1/2/side angle pose)
**floor work (pigeon pose/child's pose/prayer)
**balance (tree/standing y or warrior 3)
**cool down

After the workout, lori (the beginner) asks questions about the more difficult poses (downward dog, chatarunga etc). Kristin then shows lori the correct posture/positions- even as someone who has had previous yoga instruction, i found this part very helpful in correcting form etc.

All in all, i was surprisingly pleased with this MTV yoga tape- it is a great addition to your exercise tape routine.

Summary: This workout is tough, but wonderful!
Review: I'm a 24 year old woman in great shape (running, biking, etc.), and I've had a hard time finding a yoga video that isn't way too easy. This is a great DVD! The workout is relaxing, but challenging. You feel your muscles burning and toning, but at the same time you feel relaxed. This is by far the best yoga workout I've seen...and I definitely like the hipper music, rather than the new age [music]...

Summary: Awesome
Review: This is a high energy, effective and fun yoga exercise video. I highly recommend it. The muisic is fun: it kept me going. I am the kind of person that doesn't like to just meditate but get a wokout and sweat. I got the sweat here without feeling like I was meditating. I give an A +.

Summary: My favorite yoga workout!
Review: I am 24 years old and this is by far my favorite yoga workout! I recommend using 5lb wrist bands to increase the level of difficulty of the poses and burn more calories. This tape is suited to those of you who are looking for a complete yoga workout, that will leave you pleasantly tired despite the relaxing poses which complete the exercise.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't waste your money
Review: I found this DVD yoga workout to be distracting. The music is so loud you can't get relaxed. The music can be turned off, but it still doesn't help.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't Be Thrown Off by the MTV Label
Review: Don't let the MTV title throw you off, this is a great yoga video. I have tried several and this is the best that I have found. The music is upbeat and energizing without being overly stimulating. The instructions are simple and the variety of poses range from beginner to advanced.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Exactly, exactly what I was seeking!
Review: I did yoga classes for 1-2 years at my local gym in San Francisco (Club One) and loved them. I live too far to continue going, and haven't done yoga now for over a year, but have been searching for a way to get back into it. This DVD is almost exactly the same routine that I used to do in the gym with the instructor!!! I have done yoga for a few years now, but it was only with one or two different instructors the whole time, and to my pleasant surprise, this DVD follows the same routine. Vinyasa, I think is what they call it? So... nice and quick pace, you change poses with each 'inhale or exhale, and the room they are in is gorgeous! So rich and deeply colored. I love this DVD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Really Relaxing Yoga
Review: I found this DVD to be a breath of fresh air.
They guide you through everything, the breathing the stands.
The best part was you actually see three levels of Yoga and you dont feel as bad when your at the 1st level.

The music was great, the host was very welcoming. She was a great motivation, just looking at her perfect body is enough to work hard.

Try it!!...
