FORUMS > Flexibility Training Forum Rules

I do Yoga at my gym about 4 times a week and would like to start doing it twice a day on most days but I travel alot and am looking for suggestions on a good dvd or dvds that I may pic up to take with me on the road? any traveling Yogis? what do you do?

well.. the ideal is to learn the asana and how to sequence so that you can tailor a routine for yourself that works energetically and physically for the needs of the day. But that comes with time and self practice. If you want a cheer leader (nothing wrong with that) then there are various routes.

If you want something "athletic" then Baptiste´s Power Yoga is good, and I am sure has a DVD.

Rodney Yee is another solid name (I´ve not used his DVDs though).

Shiva Rea and Ana Forrest are also worth checking out (Ana Forrest is kinda amazing
http://blogs.yogajournal.com/boston06/video/12/vid_play_content.html One of the few women I find attractive She has a DVD with a serious abs work out on it, yoga style. BTW she was in her 50s in the clip. I hear the Strength and Spirit one is the place to start or the pleasure of strength. This is hard work. Do not be mislead.

It´s a bit hard to answer well for you without knowing what style you are into.

I've been doing yoga for quite a few years (proudly, pre Madonna lol) and have found the only videos to buy are those that feature Rodney Yee. They are well done and his instructions are clear. I recommend that you watch them a few times through before starting so that you feel comfortable with his instructions, but this isnt absolutely necessary. I'm sure there are other videos out there that are decent, but in my experience they have been hit and miss.

I have seen Yee´s books, which is why I suggested that you try the DVD. Rest assured his are not the only DVDs worth using. it depends on what you want.

I am a bit of a traveler myself and always carry my RODNEY YEE around! He has many many dvds to tailor to your needs and moods. I believe the company is GAIAM ....not sure i spelled that right but Rodney Yee is his name!!!

Namaste!!!!!

thanks guys!

Aaron Star has several DVD's from beginner to advanced. They are easy on the eyes, also.
