"I have never tried yoga and I'm not very flexible. I found the step-by-step basic instruction very user friendly and encouraging. And it felt good even on the first try."

Great Yoga Buy Date: October 28, 2009
"I am the resident Yogi at the local PowerHouse Gym. I strongly recommend this DVD. Great for a beginner to Yoga, but also superior to refresh the training of the more advanced Yoga practitioner. Rodney is wonderful. Clear in descriptions, and has a delightful sense of humor. All Giam products are great buys, but combining Rodney Yee with the Giam label guarantees excellence."

Great Yoga Basics Date: October 24, 2009
"My husband & I have only min. yoga experience. This was a great introduction to several posture with step by step instruction. The break down is important to anyone wanting to begin yoga practice. I enjoyed hearing from both the male & female instructors for different perspectives. The only thing thing missing was a little more variety of postures & more instruction on the yoga breathing."

Rodney Yee's Yoga for Beginners Date: October 22, 2009
"This is an excellent beginner yoga DVD. Instructions are clear and carefully taught. There is a section with very specific instruction about proper form with a demonstration of some of the common mistakes made in a given pose. This DVD includes two very useful workouts that can be used daily."

Rodney Yee's Yoga for beginners Date: October 19, 2009
"I was very disappointed in this dvd. It was definitely not for beginners unless they were in great shape! Rodney and his parther moved very quickly through the poses, as if the viewer were familiar with them. They also assumed a great degree of flexibility in the viewer. I only saw a few modified poses for those less flexible or with physical limitations."

Great Start! Date: August 3, 2009
"The pose training is the best part of this DVD. It's very informative to get the poses right. They also point out common mistakes which really help me keep a mind on that. This was an excellent start for someone who knows nothing about yoga. It covers a ton of basics.
I did the short am and pm workouts a few times. But after a few times, they were too easy and short for me to keep doing them. I quickly move on to more challenging yoga workouts. But this DVD can really get your feet wet!

Good Beginners DVD Date: April 24, 2009
"Even though the pose guide moves a little too fast after two or three viewings it was easy to catch on. Rodney and Colleen offer advice on how to avoid mistakes in allignment and an immediate physical benefit was felt. Both of their instructing was motivating and empowering."
