Description

Vinyasa Flow takes dynamic yoga to a deeper level by integrating rhythmic breathing with conscious movement. As in all physical yoga, you will increase strength and flexibility - and by uniting body and breath, you'll learn to move from moment to moment with absolute awareness. The practice becomes a meditation in action, and can open you to experience the power of Spirit, the connection between us all. Seane Corn's passionate interpretation of this ancient, flowing style of yoga has made her one of the Nation's most sought-after instructors. In her first-ever session on home DVD, you'll experience a stunningly intimate program that will leave you feeling you've just left a one-on-one yoga lesson - with one of the most compelling and inspiring teachers of our time. For anyone who wants more from yoga than its physical rewards, this is a practice to strengthen the power of your mind and heart as much as your body - yoga to validate and celebrate the human experience and reconnect you to your personal sense of Spirit. This Deluxe DVD Edition includes unprecedented instruction & practice options: Instructional Session: Through informative, unscripted live-audio instruction, Seane guides a complete flow practice - with an emphasis on precise alignment - including modified Sun Salutations, standing poses, backbends, twists, meditation and relaxation as well as instruction in Vinyasa breathing technique. 1 hour 12 minutes. Breath Session: The full practice without verbal instruction, demonstrated at a real-time pace driven by the breath and by the soulful music of Suzanne Sterling. This unique distraction-free template for movement and breath offers the ultimate experience of the powerful, meditative grace of Vinyasa Flow yoga. 1 hour. BONUS Interview: A riveting and candid conversation with Seane, - a glimpse into the personal journey, reflections and beliefs of a woman known for her refreshingly honest take on yoga, spirituality and life. 10 minutes.

This video is terrible. It is waaaaaaaaayyyyy to slow!!!! I just bought it and it should not be considered a workout video. If someone is totally new at yoga and wants to see someone get into each move very slowly and listen to them talk this is the DVD for you. If you want a workout this is not for you! Now, I'm oversees and have to order a new DVD.
astonished; no verbal cues on 2nd disc - buy "Yogi's Companion" by Lauren Petersen instead - Reviewed on 2009-06-10

i wish i'd read all the low reviews before i blew the cash on this DVD set. it is astonishing that there are no verbal cues at all on the 2nd disc. to have to look up at the screen to see what she's up to next is extremely bad for the neck and thus blows the whole zen of the practice.

it seems that people are IN LOVE with seane corn -and that's OK- as she's a very good technician. her vocal tone is a bit abrasive at times but she definitely knows what's proper alignment and breathing.

gaiam should be ashamed. the DVD set is just bad. if you want a great challenging audio practice (but no visual) try "the yogi's companion" by lauren petersen. it's excellent.

I consider myself an intermediate practitioner. Living in a small town, I rely on dvd's as a source of yoga classes. So I own many dvd's . I found Seane talked far too fast and with an excited tone (not very relaxing). She does not name the poses. It would have been to her benefit to have had a student going through the moves as she talked through the routine. She was not in time with the breath because she was talking. Sometimes she would mention to pick up the props after she had moved to the other side and the prop was left behind. I was unable to enjoy the dvd. And the second dvd has no verbal instruction. That is pointless unless you plan to sit back and watch her go through the routines. Makes no sense to me.

The tapes demonstrate good technique and form. The poses are good for beginners and similar to what I have experienced in other beginning classes. The beginning of the first tape has too much talking and then the second tape has no talking at all. It is very difficult to participate in the yoga poses using correct form and breathing to get the desired benefits when there are no verbal cues as to when to change poses. You have to constantly turn to see if she has moved or not. I have use many excercise tapes and have never had one without at least the option for verbal cues.
Nice intro into Vinyasa - Reviewed on 2009-02-28

Great for a beginner or anyone wanting a nice fusion of all aspects of Yoga presented with clear and gentle instruction. You feel like Seane Corn is in the room with you instead of your tv.
