This was the first yoga DVD that I ever bought. I had just finished college and after christmas time I noticed that I had a little pouch where there wasn't one before. Both of my parents are overweight and I said "no way, jose." So I purchased this DVD and when I first started it I thought, "this seems really basic." But when I actually focused and did all the moves and held the poses as long as the instructor, I could feel a slight burn and I would break a sweat. I continued to do this almost everyday for a month and the pouch I was beginning to grow was gone. And I love listening to Suzanne Deason. She has such a gentle voice and she is not intimidating even though she is an accomplished yogi (yoga teacher). She'll give you a very brief spiel on the benefits yoga has for the body, mind, and soul.
Now I am somewhat of an experienced yogini (student of yoga), I still enjoy doing this DVD every now and then to go back to the basics. It would not be a good idea for someone who is an intermediate or advnaced yogini to do this regularly, but for a beginner that will give you the building blocks for a lifelong journey that is yoga.
