Real World Beginner Yoga: Real People with Real Bodies DVD Video
It's the first line you hear when you
pop Jackie Camborde's Real World Yoga® in your DVD player, and you know it's
not going to be just another workout. Jackie developed the Real World Yoga
program because not all people who benefit from yoga are flexible, young and
injury-free. In fact, most of the population is battling with at least one
of these maladies, if not several. Real World Yoga® is a program that allows
first-time beginner yogis to work at a comfortable level – rest and modification of
postures is emphasized throughout. On the flip side, experienced yogis can
use the challenge modifications to go deeper in postures and add more power
to the program. The workout is a vinyasa-style practice, which means that
postures flow from one to the next in the rhythm of the breath. Some poses
can be held for several breaths to deepen the posture or to gain
flexibility. The program is a great balance of challenge and relaxation, of
give and take, and of working at a comfortable level with the ability to go
deeper when ready. Real World Yoga also features real yoga practitioners with real bodies – not the typical
fitness models you see in most exercise programs. Jackie, Kristine and Diane
are all mothers (Diane is a grandma too!); women of different ages and
backgrounds who come together for the sheer joy of yoga. Participants will
want to listen to Jackie's Story, another DVD menu option, where Jackie
shares her journey from unhealthy and unfit to the instructor she is today.
Yoga and fitness instructors should check out the Instructor's Corner choice
on the DVD menu. In what is possibly the most unique aspect of this program,
Jackie takes one of the vinyasa flows from the workout and breaks it down
for instructors (and anyone else wanting to deepen their understanding of
yoga). Here, instructors learn how to see alignment and postural issues
facing many people and learn how to fix them. They will also get a little
toolbox of ideas for ways to cue, both visually and verbally.

Yoga Journal Magazine Presents: Iyengar Intensive Yoga at Estes Park 5-Video Set
Mr. Iyengar's teaching and
presence is incorporated in virtually every session captured by this DVD,
including three all morning asana classes, three pranayama classes, Q&A
session with Mr. Iyengar, Mr. Iyengar's Conference Keynote address,
conversation with Mr. Iyengar, master classes with Manouso Manos &
Patricia Walden which include Mr. Iyengar, and performance by the Yoga
Performance Troupe. In September 2005, Sri B.K.S. Iyengar made a
much-heralded visit to Yoga Journal’s Estes Park Conference to participate
in an Intensive dedicated to his teaching. Along with some of Iyengar
yoga’s most well known senior teachers, Mr. Iyengar provided those
assembled with his latest teachings in asana and pranayama. Experience the
asana sequencing Mr. Iyengar developed especially for this Intensive, and
hear his fresh insight into what it means to practice “Iyengar yoga”.
Listen to a variety of talks and question-and-answer sessions, all of
which provides an understanding of Mr. Iyengar personally, and how his
life story led him to develop his unique approach to yoga. Ranked by Time
magazine as among today’s “most powerful and influential people in the
world,” Mr. Iyengar displays his passion, vitality, and mastery of yoga
throughout this DVD set. Blending humor, deep insight, and vitality, Mr.
Iyengar’s presence was even more astounding given his 86 years of age. It
was possibly his last visit to the United States, and one that can be
thoroughly savored and continually revisited in this DVD format. Partial
proceeds from the sale of this DVD set go towards Mr. Iyengar's Bellur
Project, and toward the Iyengar Yoga National Association of the United
States (IYNAUS). 24+ hrs. (2006) DVD-Region 1.
