Recommend your YOGA dvd

[Anonymous]

Stressed & stiff-limbed Mom looking for the be-all-and-end-all of yoga dvds.
Any school / practice will do, I am just looking for something that leaves me feeling both challenged & relaxed.
FWIW, years ago I practiced regularly but have not been able to get to a studio since having kids.
Many many thanks in advance.

I haven't done them in a while, but I used to really like Barron Baptiste's videos. I was actually just thinking about pulling them out! They are a pretty good vinyasa workout.

I like Baron Baptiste yoga at the studio but the DVDs get mixed reviews. Rodney Yee sucks.

A woman named Sadie Nardini is getting very good reviews for her power vinyasa yoga. And "Ease Into Ashtanga" seems to have gained high praise. I may order these.

OP here: thanks for the recommendations, i thought this thread had died! I'm not crazy about Rodney Yee, a little too much beach & hair for me, but I'll see if Sadie Nardini is available at our library tomorrow!

Any other suggestions warmly welcomed.

Let me know what you think of Sadie. I'm thinking about buying her.

I highly recommend the Bryan Kest power yoga series. I've done levels 1 and 2, never quite made it to level 3 which incorporates lots of headstand-type moves. But levels 1 and 2 are definitely challenging, in a good way. I like the poses he uses, and I like that he's not too new-agey. He is a little new-agey, but not so much as to be annoying.

Not OP, but thanks for the Sadie recommendation! I love her Living on a Prayer chant (a must see), but didn't realize that she had videos. I'll have to check them out!
