Yoga For Inflexible People is for anyone who considers themselves inflexible. The yoga postures developed 5,000 years ago were not created for people who are already flexible, but rather to help inflexible people become more flexible. A wide range of poses are taught and modified to help both beginning and intermediate students experience the benefits of yoga. The modifications includes suggestions for the use of props, which can be either actual yoga props or items you have around the home, such as a belt or books, to assist you when you feel you need additional assistance. Of course if you do not need props, you do not have to use any. Customized workouts allow you to progress at your own pace and the DVD contains dozens of routines which designed to carefully guide you along your journey into yoga. When Yoga For Inflexible People was released, the Yoga Journal declared it "One of the most intelligent and useful presentations served up in a long time" and praised it as a DVD "...for all beginning students whether they are inflexible or flexible." Yoga For Inflexible People continued to be commended as the Yoga Journal rated the DVD as one the Top Yoga DVDs ever produced. (December 2006)

This DVD was what I needed to learn yoga. I am not what could be called limber by any stretch of the imagination and yoga always seemed intimidating.
Judi was able to get me past that with her good instruction and gentlew voice. She explains the poses in detail at a pace that I was able to follow and the DVD seemed designed for me in how she made each pose accessible with many recommendations and suggestions throughout.
Good selection of routines depending on what you would like to work on and also some general routines too. Very good.

True to the title!

I've had issues with flexibility since childhood, and I've always been intimidated by yoga for this reason. The title of this DVD appealed, and I had to try it. The Iyengar yoga techniques, which focus on alignment and precision, include modifications for beginner students using props like belts, blocks, and blankets. The instruction can seem repetitious, but since the teacher isn't really there to correct errors, this ends up being helpful in understanding the poses. Even if you end up switching to a different technique later, this provides a good background in the poses. My review would be five stars, but the instruction on breathing wasn't always clear, and there were some errors in the recording. However, there's an impressive variety of workouts from beginner to moving towards more advanced work, and true to the spirit of Iyengar yoga, I've found these techniques to really help in promoting a clearer, less stressed mind.

JUST WHAT WAS NEEDED!
»
I had gone to a chiropractor for neck and back problems, and had a bit of deep tissue massage done. I kept getting the feedback, "you're so tight here." I tried a yoga class, but found doing a one hour class to begin with was too much. Then I bought this DVD. This is great.
I especially like the fact that one DVD has 35 separate routines on it, varying in length from 15 minutes to an hour, and concentrating on specific areas. So if you only have 15 minutes and are having neck problems, there is a routine you can do. And they do help! I now try to do yoga with this video everyday. Even 20 minutes a day has made a prfoound difference, and best of all -- the aches and pains are gone, and I have more stamina! I highly recommend this DVD!
