Wai Lana Yoga: Relaxation Workout ASIN: 6305194629
Customer's Rating: 4 Summary: Great way to get started on yoga!
Comments: This is the first yoga tape that I've ever done. The workout was challenging, and, yes, truly relaxing. After all the stretching, my body felt less tense. Wai Lana is a very serene instructor; her voice is calm and soothing as she guides you through the poses. I'm not very flexible, and I found the poses manageable. The only part I wasn't crazy about was the musical meditation at the end. I found it more distracting than relaxing. I recommend this video and plan on using it again.

Wai Lana Yoga: Easy Series ASIN: B00005UPHN
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: Relaxing and beautiful
Comments: Wai Lana's style of yoga is very peaceful, relaxing, and great for cultivating energy. This first series is as it says "easy" but that's not the point. The point is it makes you feel great. She knows how to teach you to breathe and listen to your body to get the most out of the yoga positions.

Wai Lana Yoga: Beginners Workout ASIN: 6305194602
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: This is a great beginner's yoga tape!
Comments: I work at a library and have had the opportunity to try many different yoga tapes. This was by far the best that I've found! Wai Lana is an excellent teacher and this video got me to look forward to doing yoga every day. It is a gentle 30-minute workout followed by a 5-minute meditation. It has been a great way for me to relieve stress! I always feel more relaxed and invigorated after I do it. We have even started a lunch time yoga group at work and use this tape instead of a live teacher. I would highly recommend this tape for beginners like myself!

Wai Lana Yoga: Toning Workout ASIN: 6305194610
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: Beautiful scenery, soothing voice, burning muscles
Comments: I have been using this and the beginner's workout, and I feel great - in fact, I've always hated to exercise and now I'm getting up before the kids so I can get in my yoga. I had a new baby several months ago, and completely lost my balance, flexibility, mind, etc. This workout for me was actually a little better than the beginner workout for starting out because my abs needed serious work, but the asanas didn't require me to be extremely flexible to start - Wai Lana encourages the viewer to work up to the heavier stretches, but be patient and don't strain. You still get quite a muscle burn, though! The filming is beautiful, her voice is kind and not judgemental or too peppy. After a session, I feel calm, centered, and ready for the day. My three year old loves it too - she usually wanders in sleepily and watches the end of it, saying "I wanna go that place." Only thing it's missing is a plane ticket to her practice spots.

Wai Lana Yoga: Wake Up Body ASIN: 6305194637
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: Refreshing and "Happy" Yoga
Comments: Although I am certainly no yoga "expert", I do have about 70 assorted, exclusively yoga, type videos. For me the Wai Lana series are the best. She doesn't focus primarily on the traditional sun salutations (they can get repetitious), warrior postures, etc., but instead has a unique approach to "comfortable" positions. Her explanations of how these positions affect your mood, internal organs, digestion, muscles, and so forth, are extremely informative. Being aware of what yoga actually does for your body, makes the workout seem all the more worthwhile. The postures are not necessarily challenging, but instead tune you into how the workout is affecting both your skeletal/muscular structure, as well as your mind. I now have all 9 of her videos, and they are by far the most relaxing of all my video collection. Of course there are days where I seek out a more power oriented workout, but often after a strenuous work out, I tune down by doing a Wai Lana tape. Her tapes are colorful, thoughtfully produced, easy to follow, and a pleasure to practice with! Now, I am waiting for her to come out with some new videos-- maybe a "power" oriented practice??

Wai Lana Yoga: Goodbye Inertia ASIN: 6305194653
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: Using this tape we get a bit more flexible each session.
Comments: My partner an I liked the Easy series so much we had to try another Wai Lana Yoga tape. As with the Easy series, this tape features a variety of Yoga asanas to learn. We were able to practice most of the positions and only had trouble with a few of the more challenging ones but with Wai Lana's instruction we get a little more flexible each session. Once again the presentation is stunning and after each 30min lesson feel like we've had a good workout but also feel soothed by her gentle approach to yoga. These are not like other yoga videos we've tried - these work! Thank you Wai Lana.

Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: FINALLY a user friendly yoga video!
Comments: I can't say enough good things about this video. You are never left wondering if you did the pose correctly because Wai Lana explains every facet of the exercise. She tells you where every part of your body should be, where you should be feeling the stretch, and what it is doing for your body, inside and out. I am just a beginner, but I always feel encouraged because she gives you an alternative position if you can't quite do the one she is in. (she is very flexible!) The first two tapes are relatively easy (even though I can't do all the poses) and the third one is quite a bit harder. If you find you can't do all the poses, you can just sit back and enjoy the video for all the beautiful scenery, Wai Lana's many different outfits, and the relaxing music being played. When I get these tapes mastered, I surely will purchase more.
