Movie Reviews of Geri Body Yoga
Movie Review: Balanced and enjoyable
Summary: 4 Stars
This workout offers a balanced variety of poses demonstrated at a moderate pace. Apart from the salutations sequences, the poses aren't `joined-up', so to speak. So if you're a fan of fast-paced vinyasa flow this one is probably not for you. This DVD helped me get back into yoga after a break of a number of years. I would recommend it to beginners or people needing to increase flexibility or acquire some detail in the basics of yoga poses.
I particularly like the initial warm-up - so many DVDs just use a few half sun salutes to warm up. This one is a series of gentle, bendy/ twisty floor postures finishing with a standing forward bend they let you hang in for a bit, so you can go deep. This section makes me feel nicely stretched and ready for more. Sometimes, on days when I'm too rushed to do a full session, I use it as a quick wake-up sequence or mini-practice.
The disc moves on to sun salutations that move from mild to intermediate level, a slower more basic sequence followed by a stronger, faster-moving one. Chaptering allows you to pick and choose between these if you wish. A moon salutation follows. I hadn't come across this before and find it enjoyable and a little different. After this come some seated, supine and inverted postures, nothing mindblowing, but thoroughly described and well executed. I'm probably not quite as ecstatic about this DVD as I was when I wrote a review on Amazon.co.uk a year and a half ago, but I still find it a solid product.
How you feel about Geri and her comments will probably be an individual reaction and may depend on your attitude to celebrities on yoga DVDs. I wasn't a major fan of hers, but don't find her irritating here at all. Some of her comments might well be a bit superfluous, but to me she comes across as pleasant and positive. Her style gives the DVD a warm, matey feel, the setting is beautiful, and Katy Appleton's approach is clear and professional. Overall, Geri Body Yoga provides a balanced and enjoyable yoga experience.
Summary of Geri Body Yoga
Geri Halliwell and Katy Appleton team up again in this DVD made especially for you.Follow Geri, Katy, and Nate through five sections of yoga that will help build your mind, body, and spirit in a program designed for all levels of fitness. Filmed on location in Los Angeles, this program will help you transform your body just like it has helped Geri maintain her physical well-being.
Yoga is non-competitive, and this DVD lets you go at your own pace through two warm-ups, a strength section, bliss, and a relaxation section (chill). Do it all in one session or section by section on any given day, depending on how you feel and what your goal is. Do poses that provide energy and poses that provide relief from everyday stresses.
