    I have this. I found it very relaxing and calming. I burned around 300 calories doing it.

    Having more muscle keeps your metabolism more active during the day, so yes, yoga will burn calories by getting your heart rate elevated a little and helping build muscle.

    I got this dvd because I love yoga and wanted a yoga workout that involved a little more burn. This definitely fit the bill! It's not as intense as her other workouts, but it's rough. The first few times I did level one I was huffing and puffing pretty hard. Not normal yoga by any means, but it is a great workout in my opinion.

    If you want to burn calories do cardio. Yoga is good too. But regular cardio you burn more.

    I tried it several months ago, and reaffirmed my yoga hatred! :grumble: Could not even do 10 minutes. The DVD quickly went to the back of the cabinet never to be seen again.

    Since then, I have been doing 5 minutes of power yoga as part of P90. Hated it then too but everybody on the P90 support board told me to give it time. I did. I can get through that now but still do not enjoy it. My body does not flex that easily (although I must admit, it is getting better). Now I just have a strong dislike of yoga. :frown: Perhaps over more time, I could just be indifferent. :ohwell:

    Good luck to you!
