Ana and Ravi have created a fantastic video that truly can be used by a beginner to Kundalini Yoga. I usually practice Hatha style yoga and switching to different type of yoga was at first difficult. I admit when I first saw one of Ana and Ravi's DVDs, I didn't really like Kundalini all that much. I definitely suggest if you are a beginner to kundalini yoga to try this DVD first. The movements are simple, but at the same time challenging. This practice allows the person to perform the movements at their own pace, since each asana is repeated multiple times which increases the benefits. This type of yoga is also really easy to stick to! Plus the new matrix menu option is awesome. It allows users to choose certain sets if they are short on time or need a quick relaxation pick me up. Get this DVD if you want to try something fun, that will stretch you out and get you going while at the same time keep you relaxed and focused.

I can't thank Ravi and Ana enough for making their yoga so readily available, easy to follow and FUN! Before Ravi and Ana's Kundalini, I had been very into Ashtanga. I still love Ashtanga, but it was almost like a chore a lot of the time to roll my mat for it. I knew I would feel great after, but it took a lot of intense concentration and sometimes I would get impatient. This yoga is easy to give my concentration and easy to follow. I feel calm and comfortable, yet challenged and rejuvenated. I can't tell you enough how grateful I am to have found these DVD's.

Beginner's and Beyond is a perfect start for any beginner. There is a great little section that goes over the two different breaths. I still like to do the breath primer actually because it makes me feel so good, and is a great way to start practice. The warmups are fantastic, and the spinal exercises make your back feel so strong when you are finished. The 5 tibetan rites, can be a bit challenging for a beginner, but the thing about Ravi and Ana is if you just try your best and breath, you will get incredible benefits. I do try to perfect my poses, but I am not as impatient about it with them as I was with Ashtanga. It just feels great to breath and go on their Kundalini journey.

Also, as a side benefit, since I have started their yoga, I am getting told by EVERYBODY that I look so young and refreshed. When I meet people they are astounded to find out that I am in my thirties as they would swear I am in my mid twenties. It is really amazing what this does for your body inside and out.

I hope this has helped even one person decide to get this, trust me, you won't be sorry.

this dvd gives a wonderful insight on the energy and pure delight of kundalini yoga....beautifully done, simple to move along with and fun, delightful and inspiring. thank you ana and ravi....in joy anita

This DVD is beautifully done. I love the whole thing. Ana is very careful and easy to follow. Everything is meticulously executed, right down the the thoughtfulness of the aesthetics. (I love the simple, round, pink mat in the middle of the flower petals and lack of distracting elements.) I have been doing Kundalini Yoga for a year and didn't know it. I had been practicing the Five Thibetan Rites and needed a boost because it was getting boring. This tape has the Rites but done in a slightly different way and also another workout that I love. I feel invigorated and energetic when I do these exercises. I ordered another DVD to try because I love it so much and just want to experience some variety.

It started with this dvd 4 months ago. And my life has changed in the most wonderfullest way. And I am continueing on my journey through life with kundalini Yoga.
I wish there were more titles. I now have all of them and enjoy every one.
This is truly an amazing practice. As an ex dancer I was looking for an exercise that could give me that special zone I use to get from ballet. And I am happy to have found Ravi and Ana's dvd's cause they do exactly this. Take you into the wonderful world of Kundalini Yoga. You build strength physically starting from the inside out. Emotionally, spiritually, and in other ways I'm not even aware of. If you get hooked on this consider it a blessing.
It has been hard for me to find instructers that teach from such a insightful, caring and skilled level that it keeps you coming back again and again. Day after day to practice.
Thank you Ravi & Ana, and patiently waiting for your new releases as well as music c.d and book and whatever else you have in store.
