“Plus / + • The instructor, Cat Kabira, does a good job of providing tips for those who wish to make the poses more challenging as well as tips for those who need to protect aging joints or who are recovering from surgery. • I found the session on balance to be the most challenging. I like that! Delta / ∆ • I do wish the last session, which was supposed to contain elements of each of the previous sessions, was more challenging. • The shavasana in each session is too long, and the music too repetitive for me.”

“It's a good gentle series. I am fairly active, but don't do enough of this kind of thing so am enjoying the stretching and suggested modifications when necessary. I do wish I had ordered the DVD tho as I find it annoying having to sign in every time.”

“I have always loved Yoga and enjoyed classes for many years. However, it is almost 15 years since I practiced and at age 65 had a desire to try again. I suffer with neck and back pain and thought this was not possible. I searched the internet for Yoga for Over Sixties and lo and behold found your website. I ordered the DVD and after only a short time have made an effort to work with the sessions on a daily basis. I am impressed both with the DVD, the teacher and my efforts to bring flexibility back into my body. I also love that practicing Yoga is not only good for my body but also my mind and spirit. The focus is brought inwards and helps me live in the moment. I am grateful to have found this DVD, it is like having a class in my own home. I intend keeping this practice going. With much gratitude. Namaste”

“This series is everything I hoped for an more! I had been noticing a bit of stiffness in my joints after sleeping or sitting and the Joint Series of this DVD has addressed that completely. I have done this part almost every day and find it very beneficial. I am working my way through the other series along with the Joint Series currently. The trainer is pleasant, easy to follow, and makes suggestions for modifications (for folks who want either less or who want more) along the way. I have bought other Yoga DVDs in the past and have always found that they move too rapidly from one pose to the next, which is difficult for me to follow smoothly. I am an active person who runs 4 miles every day among other things and this Yoga is the perfect counterpart to my routine. Thank you for producing this!”

“I've only been using these DVD's for a little over a week, but I definitely feel better. I enjoy doing my practice a little more each day. More aware of my whole body. I'm breathing better, and it's helping me feel better. The instructor is clear and aware of differences in what people are able to do. Also very encouraging that if I keep at it, everything will improve. I'm trusting her! Each series of poses is presented well and clearly. The only issue I've had is that one of the DVD's has a pixilated glitch in it, but I've emailed about it and received an encouraging response. Hopefully it will be resolved/replaced.”

“I've always wanted to do yoga, but was intimidated. Since your DVD set was geared for people like me, 60+, I tried it. I've been doing two sections each day. I'll try the "Legs" and "Overall Flow" today. The instructor is excellent. It's clear that whatever you can do at the time is good enough. I already feel looser when I'm walking. Each session leaves me feeling relaxed. The emphasis on stretching, breathing into the stretch, and alternatives if you're not able to do as much as is being shown is very good. The whole flavor of the series is encouraging. I've been telling people about your DVD set - supplying a link - in an effort to give more people a chance to feel better, feel stronger, feel more balanced and flexible. Thank you for providing a wonderful way for me to get healthier.”

“Hello, I am so happy with my video particularly as I can stop & start to follow which series I am in the mood to do. The quality of the DVD is excellent & of course Bali is a wonderful spot, my husband & I always loved it there. I feel that my money was well spent though I only have experience with one other company & for yoga I found it too aggressive.. I love having it online also as I can carry it around with me if I am not at home. I am feeling so much more mobile & comfortable with myself & am sure it will continue as long as I keep practising. Thank you so much, Ida Laker.”
