good work out Aug 31, 2010
I really like this video and all of the moves in it but it is an hour long and I don't always have that much time. It would be nice if they had a shorter version for when you are strapped for time but overall its a great yoga dvd.

 Oh, Rodney! Aug 14, 2010
When Rodney says 'Total Body Workout' he means just that. He moves quickly and flows through many Sun Salutations and stretches. If you want a burn, this DVD will make you break a sweat, while still being relaxing and rewarding.
Though the positions in this tape are not advanced (i.e., no Crow-like poses, or hand-stand poses Rodney uses in Advanced Yoga), this tape is not meant for beginners who cannot move quickly through strenuous lunges, Warriors, and Salutations. He's great, though, so if you want some Beginner's Rodney, i recommend A.M./P.M. Yoga for Beginners.
Fast paced, not for beginners! Jul 21, 2010
As I am not a yoga beginner, I felt this was an amazing DVD! The workout itself lasts just over 60 minutes and is pretty fast paced. If you've never done yoga before, this is NOT FOR YOU! Get a beginners DVD (Rodney Yee has a beginners DVD too) if you've never done yoga before or take a class with a qualified instructor, and never begin a vigorous exercise regimen without consulting your doctor!
There is one pose I can't do and one I can't hold for as long as Mr. Yee does, but that's because I'm not an expert at yoga - yet! The best thing you can do is to try your best and do something that looks similar when you can't do what the instructor is doing.
As I said this is FAST PACED and you will work up a sweat before you are done! A great yoga DVD and a great workout.

Amazingly challenging yet relaxing Jul 05, 2010
I did this for the first time--got through it all, felt fabulous, and only fell down once (half moon pose)! Excellent, indeed, for those of us more advanced. I am blown away that Rodney crafts a workout that is rigorous, yet the entire time I am mentally and spiritually relaxed and happy within. Bravo!
Regarding other reviews about lack of core work: try Sadie Nardini's Core Strength Vinyasa Yoga...that is my other favorite. Sadie weaves specific abdominal work into the Vinyasa flow (ex: rather than going from down dog w/leg extended straight into Salutations, she'll have you bring the leg forward to half plank at the chest, extend back again (twice), then go into the Salutation. Ab work is woven throughout. I feel Sadie's practice may be more tailored to women's bodies specifically, but I respect and appreciate this workout from Rodney, and will enjoy doing it regularly also.
Thank you, Rodney!
Perfection Jul 04, 2010
From the opening asanas (demonstrated against the skies and seas of the Big Island--Hawai'i) to the cool down and relaxation portion, this DVD is perfection. After 13 years of being a studio devotee, I'm giving myself over to a home practice, and this DVD hits the spot.
