Yoga for beginners, January 8, 2013
I am 69 years old and have had many surgeries. I am very much interested in exploring and expanding my consciousness with yoga for the beginner but I am unable to sit for any length of time before pain disrupts my concentration. Are there any suggestions as to a way that I might reap the benefits of yoga laying down? Thank you, James Worthen

Very helpful introduction, July 4, 2012
This is my first yoga video and first time trying yoga. Rodney's explanations are very helpful. I started with the pose guide. I was slightly sore throughout the day which means I had worked muscles I'm not used to. I look forward to his other videos. I'm even joining a yoga studio. Thanks Rodney!

lower body stretches on this are quite nice, November 2, 2011
I enjoyed the lower body stretches on this set, which makes it nice for those sitting in a desk all afternoon. I would have liked a bit more upper body or neck (esp since it's a PM exercise). Office workers and busy people often have neck and lower back pains they are trying to de-stress from.
