Description:

Katalin Zamiar promises her combination of Tai Chi, Qigong, and Yoga will help practitioners find "balance between the manic and the mundane," and her calm radiance alone is testament to her method. The choice to tape herself alone outdoors in the high desert with meditative background music reinforces the serene atmosphere. She begins the 44-minute program with 20 minutes of uniting breath and movement using standing postures and movements. There are knee bends, balancing poses, and yoga back bends. She makes it easy on beginners by working on legs first and gradually adding arms. The balance of the program is the meditation segment. She talks viewers through it ("Relax your eyes…. Calm your breath.") and then lapses into minutes of silence alternating with intermittent voice-over instructions. If you're not meditating along with her, you're basically watching an attractive woman with a maddeningly flat stomach sit in a cross-legged position for 20 minutes. --Kimberly Heinrichs
