Product Description
One of the great gifts of yoga is improved flexibility. Research has shown that improving flexibility and doing yoga helps you feel younger, healthier and lead a more active life style.

The yoga postures developed thousands of years ago were not created for people who are already flexible, but rather to help inflexible people become more flexible. Yoga videos, even those designed for beginners, may be too difficult for some people that lack flexibility. Essential Yoga for Inflexible People helps anyone, no matter how inflexible, experience all of the amazing physical and mental benefits of yoga.

These proven & effective routines will help anyone increase flexibility and strength while developing a calm, serene mind. Proper form is emphasized through these slower paced, flowing routines. This stunning and beautiful DVD was shot at one of the most majestic, tranquil beaches in the world, Half-Moon Bay, Antigua!

Over 10, easy-to-follow customized routines allow you to progress at your own pace. This special, easy to use system allows you to find the routine that is just right for your needs.
* Modified poses for less flexible people
* Improve strength & range of motion
* Increase energy levels
* Reduce stress
* For beginner and intermediate students The Essential Yoga for Inflexible People Series embraces the absolute best in mind-body learning with 10 easy-to-follow, customized routines from the worlds most renowned teachers.

Veteran instructor Maggie Rhoades gently guides you through these effective practices. We selected the very best routines from Maggie s Inflexible People program to help you on this amazing journey of yoga. Some of these routines use a folding chair, block or book, and belt or strap to modify poses for less flexible people. People that have flexibility issues due to serious medical conditions should work in conjunction with a medical professional and yoga teacher.

Perfect for a real beginner November 11, 2008
I've been enjoying working with a Pilates DVD from this same instructor and her Yoga program is just as good. I am new to exercise of any kind and other videos I tried were not suited to someone like me. Maggie's techniques and instruction for inflexible/real beginners is so encouraging. I thought I'd have to get into better shape before I could even try yoga.

Good DVD October 12, 2008
This DVD contains many routines that work well for those of use who are inflexible - it has modifications to help out and uses things, such as chairs, to help out if needed.

There are three main selections, Short Routines (Basics), Short Routines (Some More) and Extended Routines for when you progress further. Routines range from 6 minutes to 90 minutes, with good short routines in the first two sections, 1/2 dozen 6-15 minutes workouts, so they were doable.

This DVD is perfect for me since I am new to yoga and inflexible. I have been using it for awhile now and it has been worthwhile to me.

Great yoga video July 8, 2008

The instructor does a great job. The chair is a great idea. I've been using this video as part of a rehab program and it's just fantastic. Very well thought out, good instruction, and for someone who is really inflexible, they'll find it easy enough to want to keep with it, but challenging enough that you feel like you are getting something out of it.

Perfect June 20, 2008

I feel like this program was custom designed for me. I've tried a couple yoga videos and a couple classes, but their idea of inflexible was something that I am still not sure I can even work my way up to. With this program I feel like I can actually do it and after only a few weeks I'm already seeing the improvements. If you're good with the modifications on regular beginner videos, this may be too easy. If you've tried those kind and couldn't manage it, get this DVD. It'll be exactly what you're looking for.

Essential Yoga for inflexible people May 14, 2008

This video is a wonderful addition for anybody's exercise library ! Great, especially for beginners. There are many different routines both long and short. The part I like the best is that there are many different time intervals - there is an 8 min routine and a 15 min and an 11 min + many more. There are also full routines - 40, 45, and 90 min just to name a few. So if you can only squeeze in a short workout it is waiting for you! The pace is good - not too fast like some.
