Amazon.com:
Comprehensive but user-friendly, reasonably challenging but accessible to a variety of levels, Yoga Shakti is inarguably one of the best yoga products on the market--no small achievement when one considers just how many of them there are. Instructor-creator Shiva Rea, a California-based yogi of considerable international renown, specializes in vinyasa yoga (a vinyasa is essentially a series of flowing, connected poses, incorporating breath and movement and cultivating heat, strength, flexibility, and balance). Four complete practices are presented, ranging in length from 42 to 85 minutes and including Basic Flow (for beginners), two more vigorous Solar Flow sequences, and a Lunar Flow sequence falling somewhere in the middle in terms of degree of difficulty; familiar poses like sun salutations, forward bends, lunges, twists, and inversions are featured, although Rea adds many of her own touches (such as the four "dancing warrior" sections, sun salutation variations designed for intermediate users and focusing on hips, backbends, and so on), and there are also sections devoted to pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation. It's all good, but the principal innovation of Yoga Shakti is the "yoga matrix," which allows users to customize and program their own workouts, drawing on portions of any or all of the four sequences to create series of various lengths and levels of intricacy (some guidelines are suggested for the less experienced) and thus keep their practices fresh and evolving. One can also do the various workouts with or without the instruction audio track on (the Indian-New Age-flavored music is quite good, and usually unobtrusive), and there's even an entire second disc, containing interviews, additional instruction, travel footage (filming took place primarily in India and the Maldive Islands), and more. All in all, Yoga Shakti is most impressive. --Sam Graham

- I love this DVD
This is a great DVD!

5 stars, flaws and all, I love this DVD.

Yes, the camera work isn't great, but honestly, after the first couple of times through, you're doing your poses, not staring at the screen. The scenery is amazing, and I think they did an incredible job with what they had. If you think the camera work will bug you, then get one of her newer DVD's with the slick production quality (but I don't think you should miss this one.)

I love the yoga. I love the speed, not too slow, not too fast. I like how I can choose to challenge myself, or just unwind. There is an incredible amount of material here, so I don't get bored. There are basic and intermediate sequences, so this DVD can grow with your practice. The music is wonderful. It's not ... Read More

- Classic, quality yoga
This product is great. It comes with a couple different workouts of varying length and difficulty, but don't buy this if you're looking for a 15 minute workout, because even the shortest one is over a half hour. Don't buy it if you're a beginner, either, because it's a little too fast-paced and higher impact than you will probably like. This DVD is best for someone who has some experience with yoga and is commited to practicing a whole hour or so. Beautiful job done with production.

- Great Yoga CD!
Contains various yoga routines you can perform and/or matrices you can use to build your own individual workout.

- If you are a serious about yoga teaching or your own practice...
Avoid anything by Shiva Rea, Queen of the Trance Dance. She is not practicing yoga. She is doing some crazy rendition with yoga pose names, but it is not what yoga is all about. I recommend avoiding anything she has her name on. You'd be better off spending your money on something by Yoga Journal or finding a teacher in your community.
