“1A – YOGA FOR THE HIPS– 22 MIN”
Instructor: Chaz Rough
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Easy.
The class: This class is focused on opening and stretching the hips and hamstrings. Some of the poses in the video are: side triangle, pigeon, happy baby and others. It was an easy video that gave me a great stretch! Loved it!
“1B – YOGA FOR NEW ENERGY– 32 MIN”
Instructor: Emily Michaud
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Easy, minus the splits she does in the video. If you can’t do the splits stay in pigeon pose as she does the splits or do some other pose..
The class: I really enjoyed this video. It was a nice change of pace from the other videos I do. The music was different. I felt great at the end, and it felt great to be stretching!
“1A – GENTLE, SEATED YOGA – 26 MIN”
Instructor: Trish Peacock
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Easy/beginner. The entire sequence is seated! This is perfect for someone who is looking for a gentle class.
The class: I loved this class. It’s a series of seated stretches, including some twists. There is great instruction for breathing. The sequence is easy to follow along with. I think anyone with neck/back tension would benefit from this video!
“2C – Vinyasa Yoga Flow for Core Strength– 40 minutes”
Instructor: Sadie Nardini
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: None of the poses were too difficult but it was a very rigorous challenging vinyasa/power yoga practice. I was getting sweaty after 11 minutes. Ugh!
The class: Want to work your whole body? Especially: your core, arms and legs? Then do this video. It was a great workout! There are a variety of twists, lunges, downward dogs, and backbends. It will probably be challenging for you, but press on! You can do it! =)
“1A - Yoga for Posture – 27 minutes”
Instructor: Jess Wilson
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Beginner, slowly paced.
The class: This class goes through different postures that will help with posture and spine alignment. Some of the poses done are: seated cat/cow, sun salutations, chest openers and others.
“2BB - Shoulder Opening - 24 min”
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Intermediate due to speed of the sequence, it’s quick paced and hard to keep up with.
The class: The focus of this class is on the shoulders. There is a variety of twists, and binds to open the shoulders. I really liked the meditation at the end of the video.
Overall: I liked this video and the variety of poses in it. I would have liked it better if it was slowed down or after doing the sequence several times to get the hang of it. I’d recommend this video to non-beginners who are moderately flexible.
-Cut eggs, dairy and all other animal products out of my diet.
-Do a 20+ minute Yoga video EVERYDAY. (This is going to be my major goal!)
-Continue to juice! (I want to drink 32 oz. of fresh juice a day!)
-As the weather gets nicer, spend more time outdoors! (Hiking, walking around the city, at the beach, at parks - whatever.)These are a great set of goals! You mind if I try too?
No of course not! Get it girl! =) We can encourage each other along!

Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Beginner, easy. Lots of warrior/side triangle poses.
The class: This class begins with a warm-up sequence composed of twists, side bends, cat/cows, and others. Next is a 12-minutes dynamic Warrior sequence. The last 5 minutes is for relaxing and shavasana.
Overall: This class is short and sweet, but good. If you don’t like doing Warrior Poses- don’t do this video.
Instructor: Shareen
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Intermediate, vigorous vinyasa. Harder poses include: warrior 3, plow, bridge, and shoulder stand.
The class: This class starts with some sun salutations. Following that is a vinyasa flow that has lots of high lunges, warriors, cobras, twists and others. This class will definitely work the legs, arms and the core.
Instructor: Micheal Riel
Difficulty of the poses/sequence: Intermediate. Slow paced video. There are advanced poses in this class: shoulder stand, fish pose, bow, crow, and cobra.
The class: This class starts with some sun salutations. Shoulder stand is next, I opted not to do this pose as it can be dangerous for the neck and I haven’t had an instructor show me the safe way to do it.. After this is bow pose, triangle pose, crow pose, some warriors, and twists. At the end there is ten minutes spend in shavasana. It’s a silent meditation. Enjoy! =)
