Yoga for the Kid in All of Us

Rating:
Summary: Better for younger children
Review: Based on the excellent reviews, I bought this video for my 8 yr. old daughter. Yes, we did it together and felt very silly.
This video is geared to the preschool set. I thought that the poses were not held long enough, especially for kids who have had some prior yoga instruction. This video is a great introduction for younger children (under 7) but not for school age kids.

Summary: yoga dude is funny!
Review: I am 6 years old and I take yoga. We got this DVD because my sister is too little -she's 2 1/2 -she can't go to class. We do it together and it's really fun. The yoga dude makes me laugh -he talks with his feet!And he shows us how to breathe. And he talks like Elvis. I like this yoga DVD a lot!

Summary: GREAT
Review: I am a Special Education Teacher. I used this video twice weekly last school year with my classroom of 9 kids with disabilities. We now use the same poses everyday with my kids (mostly with Autism) but the kids know it so well we don't need the video anymore! I think this is a great structured way to do Yoga with kids with special needs. I love the visual introduction of each pose. I also really like the kid/adult pairs to show each pose. It is very simple and straight forward. I highly recommend this for anyone to do with their own child or a small group of children, with or without disabilities!

Summary: My five-year-old loves this DVD!
Review: I bought "Yoga for the Kid in All of Us" on a whim and, after using it once, my five-year-old son begs to "do yoga" with me every day! One of the nicest things about this program is that it's for kids and their parents to do together (though a child or parent could do it on their own). The "yoga dude" who introduces and explains the poses (you mostly see a mom or dad and a kid actually doing the poses) is just zany enough to amuse kids, but not so wacky as to annoy parents. The music is terrific; the pacing is just right. I look forward to more DVD's from this studio.

Summary: Family Fun
Review: I bought this DVD for my 9 yr. old daughter and I to do together. What a great experience! The instructor is wonderful, and the program is easy to follow. For those with a short attention span, fear not, the poses move quickly and are demonstrated very well. The parent/child interaction makes this DVD even better. I wish there were more videos like this available.

Summary: Great to do with Kids!!
Review: I bought this DVD for something to do with my 4 year-old Daughter while her brother is at school. I turned it on for both of the kids while I was doing laundry one afternoon. The giggles that were coming from the room were worth every penny I paid for the DVD. My daughter and I love doing this together. It is geared for kids but fun for grown-ups too. This is not a serious yoga workout but for the poses and an introduction to Yoga it is GREAT!

Summary: Yoga is very fun!
Review: I hope you have fun enjoying this. It comes from a website. It comes in handy. You can do it! I just know you can. I like the kangaroo pose, but when I topple over doing the camel pose, it wears me out. The kangaroo pose - BOUNCE,BOUNCE,BOUNCE - I love it! I really like the sandwich guy and as the toe turns, because they are funny. You should buy it!

Summary: poses, not pratice
Review: I read all these great reviews and must admit I was REALLY disappointed. I thought it would be a yoga dvd I could do with my child and she could have fun while I got at leaset a litle of my workout in. WRONG. It is more like a visual encyclopedia of kid "yoga" poses. The yoga guy talks about the pose and "kid chats" a bunch, but RARELY is the one demonstrating the poses. I do not want to suffer though it again for an exact quote but basically he says things like "Camel pose is great, do you want to be a camel??? Camels this and camels that, bla bla bla camels". The whole while sitting there looking at you not doing the pose he is talking about and just talking while looking at the camara. Not even telling you what to actually do, just talking up the virtues and fun of the next pose. I would give it a 5 if it were a 2 part dvd with an actual yoga routen you could do that put all these poses together. The host talks longer than you do the pose it felt like. Definately not a break a sweat or high energy dvd. LOTS of down time and chatter with NO flow or routen. It will not remain on my shelf. If you are looking for a DVD with tons of talk and lots of gaps between movement than this is the one for you.
