There are five parts to the video
· Introduction
· Warm up
· Sun Warm Up (advanced)
· Geri Postures
· Relaxation

Im, personally, not a very bendy person but I found this video very easy to do and it?s also helped me to lose weight. Now I wouldn?t be able to live without this video and I strongly suggest buying it if your looking for a new form of weight loss.
Running time: 112 minutes
