Hello All, I can't afford to take Yoga classes at $20 a class where I live, Can anybody recommend a yoga dvd set to me? I'm kinda beginner but would like something that gets increasingly more challenging.
Thank you!

    I do Lifelift it's very much like yoga but better in my opinion it is a breathing technique that helps you lose weight also I find it very relaxing.

    I haven't done a ton of yoga and am by no means an expert, but I just got the Jillian Michael Yoga Meltdown (at Target for $10-15) and I love it. It has fairly traditional yoga poses, but she added movement so you get a little cardio. It really works your muscles and there are two 30 videos for progression. (Disclaimer: Kinda a Jillian Michael fan-girl, so take this with a grain of salt:smile: )

    I find most yoga videos terribly annoying, but I really like Rodney Yee! He explains the poses well and isn't too cheesy. He has several DVDs that have various 20 minute practices, as well as longer classes. I have bought a few on amazon. Also, your local library may have yoga DVDs- you can try them out before buying.

    I started with Yoga for Dummies with Sarah Ivanhoe. Very good instruction until you get used to it, and an intermediate (the Sun-Salute, 20 minutes) extra included. I believe the routines are on youtube as well.

    The other one I've used is AM/PM Yoga for Weight-Loss (though I take the latter half of it's title with a grain of salt). I believe it's produced by Gaiam, and may also be on youtube. It has 2 routines, each about 20 minutes long. The only thing I don't like about this latter dvd is the use of yoga "extras" like a brick, strap & wedge. I improvise with stuff I have around the house (e.g. a pillow or towel, and an old bathrobe belt).

    Hope that helps.

    Did you look on YouTube for some free videos? I've found lots of exercise videos but haven't looked for yoga yet. Free is good :)
