DVD Reviews of The Ancient Ayurveda Yoga Series
DVD Review: Interesting
Summary: 5 Stars
A unique yoga practice based on the principles of Ayurveda. The 70-minute intermediate/advanced-level practice is divided into three sections: relaxing, harmonizing, and energizing. You have the option to do the entire practice, or select a single section. You also have the option to have the mantras on or off. There are 21 postures in the Ancient Ayurveda system; 7 in each of the 3 sections. Each of the postures corresponds to both a planet and a trait. For example, Forward Bend, one of the relaxing postures, corresponds to the planet Mercury and the Intellect. Sarah Tomlinson has included a very nice laminated 5x7 card with the DVD that can be pulled out for reference. Sarah is the co-director of the Ayurveda Yoga Institute in New Jersey, and is the only Ayurveda Yoga instructor/presenter in the USA.DVD Review: Soothing Yoga for a Hectic World. .....
Summary: 4 Stars
For me the wonderful thing about Sarah Tomlinsons' Ancient Ayurveda Yoga Series is that here is a yoga sequence that challenges us to slow down and observe the inner workings of our bodies. The calm and mindful presentation of this DVD reflects the quiet mindfulness with which we are invited to practice. Resting between each of the first 7 postures gives the practitioner the chance to internalize and notice the bodily sensations, a chance to move with awareness into the more complex postures that follow.
I have found it very easy to follow and practice with the DVD. With the musical quality of Sarah Tomlinson's voice acting as a soothing guide I have even found myself able do some of the more challenging postures, like Swan, that I was previously unable to do.I also find it fascinating the way each posture is connected with a beautiful Yantra and Mantra.
Here at last, is a mature yoga DVD that gets away from the frantic 'aeroba-yoga' fanaticism of recent years. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in a soothing yoga experience.
DVD Review: An unusual and beautiful yoga practice...
Summary: 5 Stars
In sanskrit, Ayurveda means the study of life. According to ancient Hindu texts, all healing systems stem from Ayurvedic medicine. This Ancient Ayurveda series dvd, led by Sarah Tomlinson with clarity and insight, provides a blueprint for increasing self-awareness through the use of asana, symbol and metaphor. Tomlinson, acts like a loving guide to going inward and discovering new self-truths. To effectively bring about change in our bodies and minds, we must change habitual patterns in the body. The poses in the series takes us through a full range of challenging movements, and Tomlinson illuminates the wisdom of this practice by brilliantly threading together how the poses evoke certain states of mind and spirit. Filmed against a simple, soothing background, Tomlinson wisely avoids distracting bells and whistles. Instead, the accompanying chanting by ayurveda master Gandharva,directly relates to the series in it's use of each of the planetary mantras.
Tomlinson's has a great depth of knowledge about ayurveda, and she weaves many subtle suggestions and information about the benefits of each pose into the practice. This dvd is appropriate for beginner and advanced student: beginners will feel supported and encouraged, as well as exhilirated by the practice, and more experienced students will appreciate the multi-level aspect of Tomlinson's class.

DVD Review: Worst yoga routine ever
Summary: 1 Stars
This is the worst yoga tape I have personally seen. The production value of this tape is horrible. First problem, the entire tape was shot with one camera. The whole time you just get a side view of the instructure. For thirty dollars I would like multible angles. There was moment I thought she was going to stop her pose to adjust the focus. Secondly, it looks as if the whole tape was shot in the instructures bedroom. And a small bedroom at that.
There is nothing new as far as the routine goes. There are no new poses, or an ancient mind, body practice. The insructure seems bored with the routines as she is talking, very monotoned the whole time. And her voice is very nasal and just shall we say not soothing. This is just a badly done yoga routine that is horribly overpriced. If you want an excellent yoga routine try Shiva Rea or Baron Baptiste. STAY AWAY from this routine. It is the first Yoga tape I returned in three years!!!
DVD Review: excercise the mind (and body)...
Summary: 5 Stars
this is a must have!! the dvd combines both the spriritual and physical aspects of yoga, bringing this ancient practice to the present time. Sarah mindfully approaches this yoga series with valuable information that will not only heighten your current yoga practice, but will allow you to relax and connect with yourself mentally and physically. in addition to a beautiful practice, the dvd package includes a chart combining the poses, chants and yantras in an accessible form. the Ancient Ayurveda Yoga Series should be a part of any regular yoga routine!
