This was like yoga on caffeine October 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I remember Denise from back when I used to do Aerobics. I remembered her as energetic and "bouncy" .. I had a hard time imagining her leading a yoga routine. My concerns were valid, she has lost none of that energy and I kept wanting to "shush" her. I don't need someone telling me to "make it burn" or "you can do it" or any of those things during yoga. Talk about the pose, make sure the viewer is doing it right, but for me, yoga is also about being in my own body .. feeling the pose quietly. I found Denise's constat chit chat very distracting. I really think that she just can't stop talking, she is just plain high energy. There is nothing about her instruction that is quiet or spiritual. It's aerobic instruction to a yoga routine. For me, it was very annoying. But if you like Denise then you might like her enthusiasm. I just kept expecting her to pop up and start a high energy aerobic routine. It was almost painful to watch her have to control her energy to "quietly" do yoga.

The routine itself is challenging. It takes going through it a couple times to get the flow. Some parts of it are quicker than I am used to and she doesn't walk you through these parts, you have to watch her. Once you do that she's done with the pose and it's too late for you to do it. But on the second or third try you remember what comes next and it flows well. She does some tough poses and she does not give you modifications, she just says only do this if you can. It's not very helpful, but if you've done some yoga before doing this dvd then you know the modifications and you can move through the poses. She is strong and she does give you something to aspire to.

I did really like some of the poses on this tape and I really liked the ab work out. I find myself adding in some of the things from this dvd when I am doing other dvd's.

But in the end, I had a hard time not giggling when she pulled her hands in together at the end and said "Namaste" with a huge grin and much enthusiasm. I'm drinking coffee before I do this tape next time. I might better appreciate Denise's enthusiasm once I've got some caffeine flowing through my body.

Great for intermediate/advanced yogis... September 18, 2008

This is a great DVD! I have to agree with the previous reviewers, this is not for beginners typically. With that being said, a group of 14 of us of different yoga levels did this during our break today (some of us being brand new to yoga, while others of us are quite advanced) and we all kept up just fine. Denise does do crow pose which is highly advanced (as a previous reviewer noted) but also the others on the DVD show the modifications. This is a challenge but one you find yourself wanting to work toward accomplishing without challenge! GREAT for the price!

Excellent Workout August 13, 2008

Despite any complaints listed - it says Yoga Burn - which means her goal is fat burning...not teaching all the ins and outs of yoga. I have Yoga Buns and Fat Blasting Yoga...I love them all and am quite pleased with the results. And now she has a feature where you can turn her talking off. If you want quality instruction, I suggest you not be cheap and pay for a class instead of a dvd...as with any type of learning, it is easiest when you have a person who can coach/correct and answer questions.

Yoga, not really.... to fast to get into poses. Definitely not for beginers! July 3, 2008
I like many have a lot of Denise Austins tapes and though I typically find her babble annoying, her workouts are usually terrific. I was excited to get a new Yoga DVD and get started. What a disappointment. I have been doing Yoga for 4 years and as a fitness instructor/personal trainer I am pretty confidant in the poses and breath involved. I could barely keep up with her transitions back and forth between moves she went so fast. You had no time to actually get into a pose before she was on to the next. Yoga is holding a pose for at least a few seconds before moving, this definetly does not qualify.
As with other reviews I to had a hard time seeing what she was doing and she very rarely named the pose you were moving into or cued it. I'll have to watch again, but I think she actually miss named one or two poses when she did name them.
Maybe Denise needs to stick with the cardio workouts where she is truly great.

This is my favorite workout. I feel great after burning calories while stretching. Denise Austin is so nice.
