Barbara Currie - Total Body Plan (DVD)

Bendy Barbara

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 Barbara Currie 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.

Review of Barbara Currie - Seven Secrets Of Yoga (DVD)

Barbara Currie 7 Secrets Of Yoga

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 Barbara Currie 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. This video caters for beginners and advanced users, there are 3 people on the video, Barbara Currie and 2 other ladies, one demonstrates the beginners exercises and the other lady demonstrates the advanced, it is so easy to follow. There are eight 10 minute sections to this video, so you can do each section at your leisure ...

Review of Barbara Currie's Yoga Power (DVD)

Transform your body

Advantages: relaxing
Disadvantages: finding time to do all sections

I suffer from anxiety attacks on a regular basis,iam unable to go out or to work without taking a million pills to calm me down(its a pain ).My anxiety councelor recomended that i take up yoga to try to calm myself down,so i took her advice a bought Barbara curries-power of yoga. I purchased it at Tescos about 7 mnths ago and it cost £10.99 which i thought was a good price for a video. Barbara currie is a 55yr old with a 21yr old body,(its nothing like my 21yr old body but there is still hope for me yet).She is a trained nurse and television yoga expert. Apparently Madonna swears by it,Geri Halliwells new figure is due to it and Sting has been doing it for yrs(personally i think Geri,s new body looks like she hasnt hit puberty yet). It also contains a 2001 diet planner that you use along with the video,But i seemed to have lost ...
