Different techniques are applicable to each trimester of pregnancy and this fifty minute video is geared for every level of yoga practitioner.System Requirements:Running Time 60 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HEALTH/FITNESS Rating: NR UPC: 029956088825 Manufacturer No: 120-1269

The best thing about this prenatal yoga program is that there is a model for each trimester. Instructor Shiva Rea demonstrates each of the stretches and exercises for the first trimester, and two pregnant women show modifications for the second and third trimesters (they're even dressed in different colors for easy reference). This removes the self-doubt home-exercisers often have about the safety of certain moves--especially in that cumbersome final stage of pregnancy. Using gentle voice-over instruction, Rea and her assistants take viewers through a half hour of meditational stretches using blocks and chairs for support. She follows that up with 16 minutes of floor work: lunge pose, bridge pose, child's pose, plank pose--all with the necessary adjustments. She winds things up with a four-minute guided relaxation on her back--the traditional position--with the second-trimester woman on her side and the third on her side with one leg up on a chair. By including the different adaptations, Rea has made a program with the flexibility to carry an expectant mom through her entire pregnancy--and beyond, if she wishes. --Kimberly Heinrichs

 Not for beginners October 7, 2008

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have been practicing yoga for about 10 years and found some of the positions in this a little difficult. It is definantly great for an experienced yoga practicer but I would not suggest it for a beginner. I am really happy with it and it will definantly keep a lot of the unwanted extra pregnancy pounds off.
Pleased with purchase October 6, 2008

At first I thought this video might be "too slow" (I am used to a regular and more vigorous Ashtanga practice) but I've come to really enjoy and look forward to the slower pace and very focused strength building postures. As I go through pregnancy, I am coming to find - everyday is not the same. I choose this on a day when I want to move mindfully and more gently. This is a good video to have in a collection and I use it frequently. Shiva does a good job explaining postures in detail and offering modifications depending where you are in your pregnancy.
rewarding video October 6, 2008
Rissa (MA)
I ordered this video in my 6th month to help with back and hip pain I was developing as a result of the pregnancy. I have honestly only used the video a few times due to my own lack of motivation but every time I do I feel great. I love how there are actually pregnant women in the video to follow depending on your stage of pregnancy. The moves are slow and comfortable and there is no need for fancy equipment. I just wish I had the motivation and drive to do this more often because the reward is great. I feel relaxed and energized at the end but most importantly, I feel comfortable which means alot!
the best prenatal yoga DVD September 26, 2008
Ixora Salazar
Amazing, inspiring, refreshing class!!! Being pregnant is a sacred experience, doing yoga connect our physical body with our spiritual one, at the same time it help us to give the best quality oxygen to our baby and hug him with our soul! great gift!!!!
nice gentle prenatal yoga exercises September 23, 2008
Nicole (Tampa, FL)
I was looking for a prenatal yoga routine that would not be too exhausting, yet give my body the stretch and tone it needs. This DVD is just that. It is nice to have the three ladies on the DVD displaying modifications for each trimester. You need a blanket, chair, block, and strap for different exercises and modifications. There is no need to buy special items, you can just use things from around the house to make it work! I like how Shiva stresses to not overdo any poses, only what is comfortable for you. The first few times I watched/did the tape, I payed quite a bit of attention to the poses. I would suggest after that to try not to watch the tape so closely and focus on your breathing, which has seemed to help me transition from pose to pose more smoothly. I have minimal experience with yoga, am 28, first time mom,and an average weight/muscle tone...if that helps get a better idea of where I am coming from. Also, I can't forget to mention the guided relaxation at the end...is AMAZING! I wish it was a little bit longer, but it is a nice treat. I highly recommend this DVD!
