Words cannot express...
I have been anti yoga for a long time as I've never found a class or video that I've enjoyed. I always felt like I had to be able to move into the positions immediately, and that if I wasn't flexible or able to hold myself up only with my pinky (I exaggerate), I was a failure. After reading the reviews and watching a clip of the DVD, I decided to try this video. OMG, changed my perspective and started to impact my life in so many positive ways. One of my goals this year was not to attract or cause negativity, and this DVD has definitely helped in my success (yes, we're not even done with January, but considering the type of job I have and my family, that's saying A LOT). Since trying it on day one, I have felt healthier, both mentally and physically. Travis' instruction is PERFECTION. I could close my eyes through this ENTIRE workout and not have to look up to see how to get into the moves. The DVD has three workouts, the first focuses more on strength and foundational poses...
Truly an Amazing Yoga Experience for Intermediate Beginners!!!
Let me give you some background info about my experience with yoga before I talk about the DVD. This will help you understand why I went into such detail and am giving this such a positive review.

The experience was invigorating and breathtaking because it always left me feeling very stretched, relaxed, and like I had challenge my body to do things it had never done but in a good, non-dreadful way. It truly was a beginner class and the focus was mainly on the physical with very minimal spiritual undertones; just want I wanted!!
Unfortunately, I had to stop taking the classes because it was very expensive and the hours the studio operated wasn't really conducive for me so it was like a waste of money (I was paying $100 a month and was really only able to make it on...
Great set of three different yoga practices
I bought this DVD in order to work up to doing the entire The Ultimate Yogi program. It contains three practices, and each is just over 50 minutes long. Each one builds on the previous one in terms of difficulty (or so it has seemed to me), which makes them nice to use to build up your strength. I love all three of these so far, and highly recommend this disk!
As a bit of background, I used to take bi-weekly yoga classes about fifteen years ago, but no longer have the time to attend live classes. I own about ten yoga DVDs (my current favorites are the Raviana Kundalini ones), but, as mentioned above, I've been looking for something that was more of a system, instead of stand-alone DVDs, and thought that this particular Yoga Foundations disk would be a good way to work into the Ultimate Yoga program.
Since I have a bit of background in yoga, I've found that the poses are very easy to...
