DVD Reviews of Yoga Zone - Conditioning and Stress Release (Beginners)

DVD Review: Easy to follow, energizing and relaxing
Summary: 5 Stars

What I really like about this DVD is that the instructor has a soothing voice and gives clear instructions. He tells you how to get into each pose and out as well. The DVD is chaptered so you can do as much as you feel like it. Also the camera gives you a good view so that you can check if you're following along correctly.

DVD Review: One of my fave DVDs for stress
Summary: 4 Stars

This is one of my favorite Yoga DVDs that I do often. It's definitely good for stress relief. The instructor talks a bit too much but I just fast forward through the talking....

DVD Review: Make Yoga Zone a regular part of your day!
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved my Yoga Zone Conditioning & Stress Release VHS (part of a boxed set I purchased in 1997) so much that I brought it with me when I moved to Europe. Afraid that the tape would wear out or the recorders become obsolete I now own it in DVD! I'm sure blu-ray is next...

11 years ago as a former ballet dancer I needed a way to stay supple and stress free after I quit dancing. Now as a Pilates teacher I use this tape to start my day relaxed and stretched. It is the perfect antithesis for an active Pilates teacher who regularly uses her core. I also love the momentum of this tape to get my day started, working out aches and pains. The clear and precise information Alan Finger imparts develops body awareness, an important aspect to owning a body. Much like a car, one must listen to the rattles and wheezes to know when to add oil or send it for a tune-up. Mr. Finger has a soothing voice and he never says too much going slowly enough to make it a pleasurable session everytime, even after 11 years! It is the perfect meditative way to start my day.

Lastly, I was also able to use Conditioning and Stress Release at home while doing physical therapy to rehabilitate my shoulder after arthroscopy for a torn supraspinatus tendon. Routinely and gently doing the many neck and shoulder stretching exercises finally helped me to realize my goal of almost 100% full use of my arm.

I recommend this tape for anyone interested in starting yoga. The boxed set which includes this DVD is perfect for continuing on with meditation and the asanas.

DVD Review: Beginner even for a beginner
Summary: 2 Stars

This video is way to basic, and you barely get anything out of it. Too much talking and not enough flowing. If you're a beginner, start with the intermediate videos. They're just as easy to follow, but you get more out of them.

DVD Review: Wonderful for beginner and intermediate alike
Summary: 5 Stars

I have several yoga DVDs and VHS tapes, but Alan Finger and Yoga Zone are among my favorites. This particular title, "Conditioning and Stress Release" is one I use the most. I think it adequately addresses both flexibility/strength and stress release, and no matter how many times I do this DVD I do not tire of the moves. Alan is very soothing to listen to, and describes the asanas so well that you need not look at the screen to know what you should do after the first few viewings. I had this in VHS format and replaced it with DVD, I loved it that much. I take it with my portable DVD player when I travel.

Description of Yoga Zone - Conditioning and Stress Release (Beginners)

Some people take up yoga to build strength and flexibility; others are primarily looking to reduce stress and tension. This 55-minute program, while purporting to address both groups, is actually much more appropriate for the latter. Yoga Zone founder Alan Finger does an excellent job not merely emphasizing the importance of the breath--the single most vital element of any yoga practice--but also explaining yoga breathing techniques, followed by a series of easy stretches (for the neck, shoulders, arms, and such) and a variety of standing, sitting, and lying poses beneficial to yogis of all levels. The pace is gentle, the sequence of poses logical, the instruction clear and constant; beginners will be challenged but not intimidated, while more advanced types might find it a welcome alternative to sweaty, aerobic yoga workouts. --Sam Graham
