Namaste Yoga: Season 1 Part 1

Amazon: dvd not as advertised
This is not a review about the product itself.., I love Namaste Yoga with Kate Potter and watch all of her programs. They are excellent and calming. This review is for Amazonβ¦.you advertised this DVD as new and is was CLEARLY NOT new. The DVD box is completely damaged and dented and it was not even wrapped like a new DVD is supposed to be. Plus there are smudges all over the DVD itself. I could have bought this for 6$ less for a used condition dVD but wanted the NEW one so it wouldnβt be scratched. I havenβt used it yet so it still may go back. Very disappointing Amazon!

Outstanding
After getting a few different Yoga DVDs I saw this and, remembering the series from TV a while ago, bought the first season.Hands down, this is the best Yoga DVD I've seen. The production quality is outstanding, the models are competent and graceful at the poses, the instructor's voice is clear, pleasant and keeps up extremely well with both the movements and the breathing.The workouts are good for beginners to at least intermediate viewers. They have challenging poses that beginners may have a little trouble with, but nothing like another "beginner" DVD I have where the second session has you propping your shins on your elbows and balancing your entire body on nothing but your two hands (I'm drawing a blank on the name of that pose at the moment). The poses on this DVD set are challenging without going overboard.If I could change anything at all, the only thing I that comes to mind is that I'd like them a little longer. They're about 28 minutes for warm up, workout and cool down. It's not really difficult to run two episodes back to back, but I'd love it if these were about an hour long.I still give this series 5 stars and highly recommend it. If you check out my other Amazon reviews, you'll see I don't give 5 stars lightly.

Namaste Yoga, the ONLY yoga that doesn't irritate me to death
If you were lucky enough to catch the show, this series was on the "FIT" channel on cable. Kate Potter is soft spoken, the scenes in these videos are breathtaking to say the least. I absolutely love Kate's style, you add one movement each sequence so by the end you are flowing flawlessly. She adds variations to challenge yourself so you can do these over and over again and continue to get stronger and stronger. This is the only yoga I will do that is not live in person, I feel stronger, more confident and clear headed when I'm done! SOOOOOOOOO very glad I could find these on Amazon (the only place I could find them!). The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because you have to buy 2 DVDs to get the first season, and one for the second.

Want to feel sexy while you do yoga?.. get this series. Its 3 pretty women in coordinating outfits doing yoga in cool or pretty places. I have a lot of yoga videos and have to say there are some mistakes, like the voice over saying to take the left leg when the video shows the right and some of the instruction seems implied more then explained well. However i feel sexy when i do yoga with these videos where other yoga videos just make me feel sweaty and stretchy, or satisfied with my self, or inept, or bored, or really in tune with my inner guru.

Yoga is a personal improvement program.
The tempo is a little fast, however the program is excellent.

beneficial
I purchased this dvd because this year I wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. I started eating whole healthy taking healthy supplements and started meditating. I had heard about yoga all my life but was never interested in it, but I never understood the benefits of it. Until I started reading up on the benefits of yoga and how beneficial it is. I purchased this dvd because I remember seeing it on the discovery fit channel back when there was a discover fit channel. I am so glad I purchased this dvd, the music and the narrative is ver pleasing and calming.

Excellent Yoga DVD
I just purchased this Yoga DVD about a week ago. There are 6 sessions and each session is 22 minutes long. I have an extensive Yoga DVD collection. I must say this is one of my favorites. Kate's voice is so soothing. The scenery is breath taking (if you watch it). Each session is different with some new movements.So far the cool down and relaxations have been the same; but that's fine with me. I love it. I do not have one negative thing to say about this DVD. I must say I am totally relaxed after each session. So if your are pressed for time or just don't feel like doing and hour's session. This is definitely a must have and go to DVD. I am ordering the rest of the DVDS to add to my collection.

The best yoga tape ever
Like many I discovered Kate Potter's Namaste on Discovery channel when it had a series of exericse shows. When it changed direction I used my VHS tapes for a while but finally got a portable DVD player so I could set up a side area just for my yoga practise. I use Kate Potter's tapes almost exclusively - I love how some tapes are fairly easy and some not but always a smooth routine building to more advanced. Even doing just the warmup is helpful. The Vancouver scenery is breathtaking and each pose is carefully photographed and explained so I never have to stop what I'm doing to figure it out. Most important to me is her voice is easy to listen to day after day.
