Recommend DVDs? Online class?

renie · 09-13-2008, 08:43 PM

I searched this forum with no success to find recommendations for Power Yoga DVDs. I own Brian Kest and Rodney Yee, but wondered if there were any out there with more emphasis on shoulder/hand stands, arm balance, crane pose, etc. I also heard of free yoga classes online and wondered if anyone could recommend any? Many thanks!

I believe Yoga Today does streaming video. Not sure the direct URL, but I'm sure you can find it on Google.

renie,
When you go to yoga today . com , any practice with Adi Amar, is an ashtanga practice, and will be similar to a "power class".

You mentioned being interested in handstands, crane, etc. For an intermediate to advanced level workout, you might want to check out Duncan Wong Yogic Arts Source Power CD (acacialifestyles.com). If you are not familiar with Duncan Wong, you can search for him on youtube to get a sense of his style before ordering the DVD.

I've found Yogadownloads.com to be a wonderful site. You download mp3 classes and you can either burn them to CD or put them on an ipod/player. I can't do DVDs, they are way too distracting to me. I just put my ipod in a sport holder, retreat to my sacred space, and it's just like being in class. Ecellent practices on this site, a wide variety of levels.

Have you checked out the free yoga video podcasts in the iTunes store? I did a search the other day and found all sorts of yoga classes, including some with a greater focus on handstands. And they're all free!

But also, why not create your own sequence? Why be bound to an iPod for your practice? There are books out there that will show you the poses you want to practice, along with poses that lead to them.
