Done properly and if external circumstances allow for it, a yoga DVD can be an excellent way to get in shape. You just need to follow a few simple steps when choosing your DVD. Most important is to pay attention to the fitness level or skill level that should be advertised on the DVD or the website from which you are buying. If fitness level is not clearly stated, you can search the internet for review sites that can tell you a bit more about the DVD or that particular type of yoga, and you can then use context clues to estimate skill level. You will want to decide on a type of yoga (hatha, power, vinyasa, or restorative, for example) that you are interested in. With the wide variety of yoga types available, this choice can be confusing if not downright challenging. It might be helpful to know what you would like to accomplish with your yoga DVD -- in other words, what your fitness goals are. People do yoga for a variety of reasons, such as weight loss, increased flexibility, improved core strength, and/or relaxation. Understanding this will guide you in your choice. Not all instructors or DVD production companies are the same, so you might want to check a yoga DVD you are interested in purchasing against reviews, or choose DVDs based on the recommendations of yoga experts. Many online yoga retailers, like YOGAaccessories.com, are run by yoga enthusiasts; quick email to one of them may help you narrow down your choice considerably. Be sure to share your fitness level and the reason for practice, and they should be able to make a suitable recommendation. The folks at YOGAaccessories.com would love to assist you in making the right choice, and you can count on their excellent customer service to answer all of your questions and make the right buying choice in the privacy and convenience of your own home. |
