A.M. And P.M. Yoga for Beginners (DVD, 2003)

I ordered the Dvd on Dec. 23 2007 and paid for it thru paypal that same day. As of today Feb 10, 2008 I still do not have the DVD. I received 2 e-mails regarding the purchase both form letters saying bla bla bla we will check into this and if we can correct the problem please change our Ebay negitive feedback. I replied just send me the Dvd I paid for. Two months later nothing. Keep my money if that little bit is so important to you, keep the tape. Good Bye

I love this DVD. I had it for VCR, but need to update. This is the best. One for the A.M. (20 min.) & one for the P.M. (20 min.). Very descriptive on the mooves & nothing terrible. You don't have to have been in a yoda class before in appreciate this one.

This video has been very beneficial to my wife and me. It's very simple, and not very long. It helps us start and end our day with yoga which just seems to make for a more enjoyable day and a more restful night.

As Rodney Yee says, it's better to do 20 minutes of yoga every day than to do 60 minutes once a week. That's what this DVD is about.

Beginners, don't be swayed by the negative reviews here, you are on the right path. These routines are easy to follow as presented by Walden and Yee, require few props, & reflect the stillness & simplicity of yoga's philsophy.

I once made a daily practice of the routines on this DVD, only to cut back to one routine per day, & now regret that I allowed the DVD to gather dust on the shelf for a few years.

I only took it (& other Gaiam DVD routines) up again briefly to help my dance instructor during my 3-yr Ballroom, Latin, and Country & Western dance phase (Note: yoga & meditation is the very best thing for dancers—especially if you're at competion level—it will help you with focus, visualization, strength, & flexibility, all the things you need to succeed—and it will help you stretch to avoid injury, even if you're not competing).

Years of stress due to "office politics" in a unionized gov't administration (with a union who always had "more important" things to do than support their membership, especially when I needed them most), & workplace bullying by insecure managers, supervisors, & co-workers who couldn't deal with my positive work ethic & the positive feedback I received from the Directors I was supporting, have finally taken their toll.

I now have painful Osteoarthritis in my neck and spine in the wake of my difficulties at work and 7 rear-impact motor vehicle accidents over 14 yrs (the last in '05). My vehicle was already stopped (usually at an intersection) when each occured & I followed the required courses of treatment to the letter in each case (physio, chiro, & GTT accupuncture by my chiro). None however, was as emotionally or physically beneficial as yoga & meditation likely would have been.

I am slowly taking up my daily practice of yoga & meditation again, which I'm not finding easy in my current state of mental and physical exhaustion. However, I have no choice if I want to live to see my two little grandchildren grow up—the Celebrex my doctor put me on for the arthritis has ravaged my stomach, to the point of causing anemia.

To my detriment, I didn't listen to the man I met at a trade show last fall who told me what that drug would do based on his and others' experiences & I thought that I certainly had more than 6 months. Besides, I was enjoying the pain relief too much.

I had also forgotten that yoga & meditation would have done a far better job of relieving my pain & job stress without this life-threatening side effect. Now I know—never take the easy way out—it's never worth it!

Rodney Yee is right—even if you only do ONE of these workouts every day, keep it up for the rest of your life! You don't need to complicate things with something better, different, more challenging, or more exotic from the boundless variety and different types of yoga out there, or do a lengthy 60-minute routine. Keep it simple, just like these so you will memorize it (I was fortunate to get the CD version from Gaiam just as it went out of stock forever) and stay with it.

I didn't, because I got busy and tired and thought I was too busy to fit my practice in anymore—that was my biggest mistake!

No matter what's going on in your life, you MUST find a way to fit 20 minutes of yoga & meditation in every day. Not only will it change your life, it will SAVE your life!

I liked the fact of the easy movements and beautiful setting. Yee and Walden are excellent yoga instructors and the dvd is easy to follow. I recommend it for all beginners of yoga.

If you are a beginner in Yoga, than Rodney Yee is the teacher for you. Remembers the real basics of Yoga, which is spritual in nature, not "latte yoga".

I never received this item, so I can't tell you what I like or don't like. If I ever get the DVD I'll be glad to tell you. Or get my money back!

The AM portion of the tape is truly for beginners and was a good routine. The PM portion for too difficult for real beginners and really bothered my hips. bought this DVD. I am in reasonably good health at 48 but wanted to be more flexible so I bought this tape. I found it somewhat boring and definitely not for a beginner.

i love this dvd even though the pm yoga is a little bit too advanced for beginners,but i guess if you practice you'll get there

I DECIDED TO BUY IT BECAUSE A FRIEND HAD RECOMMENDED IT FOR STRESS RELIEF AND I WAS SKEPTICLE AT FIRST BUT IT IS GREAT, PRETTY EASY AND SHORT SEGEMENTS SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT FOR AN HOUR. YOU CAN PICK AND CHOOSE WHICH ONE YOU WANT TO DO OR JUST DO THE MEDITATION WHICH IS ABOUT A FEW MINUTES LONG AND GREAT TO DO BEFORE BED. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR A FAST STRESS RELIEF AS MOST OF US DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME FOR THESE THINGS.

I really like the 15 minute workout. Anything longer than that, and I start getting fidgety and can't stick with it. The 15 minute workout gives you a great short yoga workout, one that is fun to do everyday. Lost my first dvd, so I purchased it again, and that shows how much I like it.

I work a 10 to 12 hour shift at work,I was looking for a program that I could do. My job is stressful, and I am trying to make life changes. This fits well
into my goals. It is a good starting point for begining yoga, it teaches relaxation and all the benfits yoga has to offer. It doesn't overwhelm you as some other programs do. You feel like you are succeeding in your goals. I would reccomend this dvd to anyone interested in starting a yoga routine in their life.

Product was a gift to replace a VHS tape of the same. Works and plays alot better. Recipient of the gift was very pleased.

I love the DVD...It was exactly what I wanted...it arived to my home quickly...new and in shink wrap as promised..thank you

I think if I would have reviewed the Seller's Negative Feedback before I purchased with them, I would not have made a purchase with them. They had a UNBELIEVABLE purchase agreement that they added to their check out which terms are NOT represented in their ad. I wouldn't agree to it and sent them a check instead of purchasing through their checkout. It seems they have had delivery problems in the past and wanted to pass the blame onto their buyers with their new agreement. Ultimately it is their responsibility to send the purchased item within a reasonable amount of time. I emailed them twice to let them know I was sending a check instead of buying through their checkout because of their purchase agreement...they never responded. A few days later I received another invoice from them telling me to purchase the item through their checkout. Again, I emailed them to let them know my troubles with their checkout and that I had already mailed my payment to them. They never responded so I called them. Their customer service department was EXCELLENT! They apologized for the invoice and told me they would ship the item immediately...which they did not do. They waited until after my check to clear (which is understandable...just don't tell me you're sending the item when you're not) and I eventually received the item. It was in good condition. Overall...I wouldn't purchase through this seller again due to their negative feedback and additional purchase agreement they added to their checkout. But I will note their customer service department was very good.

Could not find it anywhere else. The work out plan is just right for begineers. This DVD really gets my blood flowing.

I am not what you would call a Yoga enthusiast, but this is a great DVD! It is simple enought that anyone can do it. It is also well rounded enough that I noticed I sleep better and have more energy during the day. I have also noticed my flexibility increase. This is a great buy for anyone that wants to stay balanced with little effort.

it arrived quickly! thanks!i decided to buy it because i love yoga with rodney yee. it has been exactly what i thought it would be... Great!! Again Thanks for the quick delivery!!

I have had the product before, I especially like the pm workout - it is a very relaxing way to end the day

If you don't have a lot of time for Yoga(and most of us don't!) this is the dvd for you! Each practice takes roughly, 20 minutes! A quick yoga session is a great way to begin and end each day. The Yoga for PM was a little more difficult than the AM segment though. But it can be done easier with the use of props. There is also a bonus segment explaining and demonstrating the use of props such as blocks and straps. I found this part to be very educational and a great learning aid for beginners (and 50+ age) like me! I highly recomend this dvd. The instructors are all great and the dvd has alot to offer for your money.

I enjoy the morning meditation workout and the transition into a slightly more difficult pm routine. I dislike how quickly the pm routine moves and doesn't do a quick description of how to properly pose to avoid injury. I bought this because I've done yoga in the past in a gym setting. I enjoyed that but can no longer afford a gym membership. This is an affordable alternative.

I bought this dvd for my daughter and her husband so they could start their yoga practice. Rodney Yee is an excellent instructor with great direction. I bought the A.M. and P.M. Yoga for them so they would have a good idea of one style of yoga. My daughter and her husband both like this dvd and are looking forward to mastering the moves so they can move on to the next dvd in this series.

I loved the DVD. It is a great starting point for beginners interested in Yoga. The AM and PM aspects make it much easier to stick with.
