Movie Reviews of Yoga Challenge I, Hatha Yoga with Tony Sanchez
Movie Review: My Favorite Yoga Workout
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried many different Yoga videos over the years, believing Yoga is good for me and wanting to succeed at doing Yoga. This is only one that appeals to me. It's quiet, the person giving the directions has good timing as far as the step by step procedure for getting into and out of the poses, as well as giving hints like "remember to breath" just as I am starting to hold my breath. The modified versions done by the other 2 are also very helpful.
I had the book by Bikram, "Bikram's Beginning Yoga Class" for a couple of years before purchasing Tony's Yoga Challenge on VHS. I would highly suggest getting both that book and this DVD. (No difference between VHS tape and DVD, I just needed it on DVD now) The book is funny, and gives lots of encouragement with pictures of others doing the poses starting out, and how they look later. Also explains why you are doing the pose, and what the benefits are. The exercises are NOT in the same order on this DVD, and a few (really hard ones) are not on the DVD. Tony is a student of Bikram Choundrey. (sp?)
This is not exciting to do, and you do need an hour+. Don't let that turn you off from buying this DVD. It very easy to get addicted to doing something so quiet. By just listening to the directions, and concentrating, the time goes by faster than you would think. I do admit to sometimes skipping all the laying down between some of floor exercises, but I know I shouldn't!
When I do this at least every other day, (I do weight training the other days) I feel energized, and sleep better. My chronic aches and pains, like an achilles tendon injury, lower back injury, as well as upper back area that knots up, all disappear. I can tell if I skip 2 days, I start hurting.
My husband has started doing it also, he has degenerative back pain. He is also finding relief.
This type of Yoga has the emphasis on the spine functioning at it's best. If your spine is strong and in alignment, the rest of your body will be healthy too.
It does work your whole body, it is NOT easy, but anyone can do this, just do the poses the best you can.
Try it. Give it an honest try, do your best, and start feeling better.
