Advantages: Good introduction Disadvantages: Doesn't last long
...I wanted a basic introduction to yoga before I embarrased myself down the local gym by taking a class. After all, we're not born knowing how to tell a tree balance from an eagle balance.
Anyway, after getting a free 10-minute BarbaraCurrie video with a magazine which whet my apetite, I thought i'd give this video a try.
Barbara herself talks you through the poses as she does them. There are also 2 of her 'students' standing behind her, one demonstrating the beginners level of each posture and the other what you can achieve when you are more advanced.
The workout is set in a light airy studio with soft, relaxing music in the background. Barbara is very calming to listen to, she has a light lilting voice that talks you through everthing slowly. The emphasis is very much on taking things at your own pace and level. The video is suitable...

Advantages: Ten minute sections so you can go at your own pace Disadvantages: None
...I decided to get a yoga video and it was pointed out to me, that the best video to get would be BarbaraCurrie as she is 58 years old and what she looks like speaks for itself. Getting excercise videos from the latest star who has brought one out, may be all well and good, but be realistic we are never going to look like them. This lady looks like she is in her 30's and all from yoga, so she must be doing something right.
The video was bought from Amazon.co.uk for £9.99 £3 off recommended price.

There are eight 10 minute sections to this video, so you can do each section at your leisure.
The first...

Advantages: Progessive and challenging Disadvantages: Instructor is patronising
...I hate exercise, I have tried running, Aerobics, Step aerobics, cycling, everything. All I do is get very bored and I don’t stick with it for more than a couple of days. I also hate getting out of breath and dread the thought of exercise. But I have never found anything that is challenging or remotely interesting. Someone recommended yoga to me and I laughed. I gave it a go and I found it fun. It is also very progressive and challenging. I found the video very good in the fact that you have a beginner doing yoga and a more experienced student doing yoga at the same time. I was pleased as I actually found myself enjoying it and looking forward to doing it everyday. The problems with this video is that BarbaraCurry is very very patronising and has a voice that I cannot bear to listen to, it is also an hour and a half long so I don...
