 Perfect! February 4, 2002

The tape recommends that you watch the tape at least once before attempting to practice. I'm not the type to do that and fortunately for me, he describes the movements so well that I did not even need to watch. He has a excellent voice for instructing. For me, a bad or annoying speaking voice can ruin anything. Definitely not the case with this video. There are two female instructors demonstrating the postures as the tape goes on. One instructor demonstrates what to do if you are already flexible and the other demonstrates the technique for those who are less flexible and includes ways to minimize stress on tight hips. I do these before bed and afterwards feel as relaxed as if I've had a few drinks, but energized at the same time. The next day, I still feel great. For me the results (relaxation/energizing) were immediate and I have to talk myself out of doing the tapes too early in the evening, as they help me to sleep.

I was basically unfamiliar with yoga but sought to improve my flexibility and reduce the effects of stress with these tapes. The instructors do an excellent job by both demonstrating the moves and giving explicit verbal cues. The pace is perfect and you are finished before you know it. There are brief relaxation/meditation sessions at the end of the tapes which are the icing on the cake. These are some of the best fitness tapes I have ever used. You will not be disappointed.

I had never done yoga before and wanted to get started by purchasing a video. I read the reviews for this set and I echo all the positive feedback.
I am a busy Mom of two toddlers and run my own home based business, hence "my" time doesn't begin until after 9pm every night. At that hour of the night an aerobic workout was not happening, but now I look forward to the nights I can do Yoga Zone.
With the box set I have options each night and surprisingly I really enjoy the meditation video (I was a skeptic!).
Alan Finger's voice is incredibly soothing and his explanations for each pose are very descriptive. I am confident that I am doing the poses correctly.
I am reaping the benefits of better sleep, the perfect end to each day and total relaxation!
Alan Finger is a wonderful instructor September 2, 2002

I'm a 47 year old male beginner, having bought this box set and also having gone to four classes at local Yoga Centers. Alan is so much better than the local instructors I've had here (in San Francisco). His voice is very calm and soothing. His instruction tells me how to move into the poses and tells me how to not hurt myself. He allows for someone like me who is not very flexable and tells us how to accomplish beginner poses very easily. The tapes are a very good value. You get a lot for your money. I've been through two of the tapes about four times and plan on using them once or twice a week for quite a long time. I feel very peaceful and relaxed after doing one of the tapes.

I am a beginner in yoga, and I did enjoy the "Introduction to Yoga" tape. Personaly, I did not like what few psuedoscientific comments made by Master Alan Finger. I also could not find "Meditation" tape to be worth a while. The "Conditioning and Stress Release" tape and the "Flexibility and Tone" tape have many redundant instructions from "Instruction to Yoga". Again, I am being subjective as I review this tape collection. If you are just begining yoga, and just want something to start with, my suggestion is to get only the "Introduction to Yoga" tape.
