Crunch: Candlelight Yoga |
 Good DVD |
| I have done this DVD twice this week and really like it. I've been doing Ellen Barrett DVD's and this is a nice break to mix in as it's easier on the joints and just very relaxing. - posted by Chris on 3/5/2009 |

 Incredibly relaxing |
| Let me preface... I do not do a lot of yoga. I do a lot of cardio and strength training. But I was looking for something to wind me down. I really love this DVD. I put on just the white 'christmas' lights in my living room when I do this and I really sink in. I find it incredibly relaxing before bed no matter what time it is. I've done it after a glass of wine! The restorative poses at the end are so enjoyable. The one thing I wish was different: I wish it was a just little bit shorter. 43 minutes seems like a bit too much before bed. But that might just be me. :) - posted by Erin on 11/22/2008 |

| Love This Video |
| I bought this DVD when I was looking for a relaxing yoga routine to do post-pregnancy. I had never bought a Crunch tape before... and was pleasantly surprised. The instructor, Sara, was excellent... and the whole mood/feel of the video is wonderful. It is a wonderful way to end my day. - posted by Karla on 9/7/2007 |

| Excellent |
| The day after I used this video for the first time my singing teacher commented on how my posture had improved and that I seemed so relaxed. I told him I had done this video the night before and I felt it had really made a difference in how I was feeling. - posted by Carol S. on 7/30/2007 |

| relaxing yes, but also boring |
| The first time I did this video I found it very relaxing. However, the next time it felt boring--there is a little too much talk (slow and quiet) that serves as filler. Some of the stretches required warmed-up muscles(at least for me--I'm not flexible), and this video does nothing to get you warmed up. I give it a mixed review and will be returning it. - posted by Amber on 7/10/2007 |

| Favorite Yoga DVD |
| I'm not really into yoga. I'm stiff as a board and wanted something that was relaxing, would increase my flexibility,not be to spiritual but still be true yoga. Sara has a very calm unintimidating way about her. Very relaxing after a hard day. Highly recommend for people like me. If you're super flexible and advanced at yoga this would probably not interest you - posted by jf on 1/6/2007 |

| I feel at peace... |
| I love Candlelight Yoga. If I could (time constraints not a factor) I would pop this into the DVD player on a daily basis. During the fall & winter I tend to have a bout with the lungs and Candlelight enables me to focus on my breathing patterns. This is especially helpful in the evening when I have a difficult time sleeping. I highly recommend this workout. It's an A IMB. Red Wiz - posted by redwizard on 11/5/2006 |

| Very relaxing |
| I already have a power yoga workout which is very challenging, but I was looking for something on those days when I come home from work just fried. This video is perfect for that. The instructor's voice is so soothing and I like that she reminds me that I work hard enough in every other part of my life--that this should be relaxing time for me! I love it!! - posted by Amy on 10/18/2006 |

| Absolutely Wonderful! |
| This is a really lovely yoga stretch! The set is beautiful with all the candles, and the workout itself is so relaxing! The instructor is really good, too, and she helps you to relax during the poses and get a great stretch. She doesn't talk too much - you have plenty of time to be in the poses and just relax while listening to the music. By the way, the music on this DVD is the BEST I've heard on any yoga workout (and I have a lot!). I haven't tried the "Energizer" bonus workout, but I previewed it and it looks good too. I'm very glad I purchased this! - posted by Andrea on 10/15/2006 |

| Instant Gratification |
| I have been doing yoga off and on for several years. Some of my favorite instructors include Suzanne Deason and Rodney Yee. I had never done any of Sara's workouts. I have some low back pain from time to time and sometimes have to miss going to the gym when my back flares up. I originally ordered this DVD to use for those times and usually use it first thing in the morning. I was amazed at how much better my backfeels afterwards and for the rest of the day. Infact, I have started using it on a daily basis, not just when my back is bothering me. I definitely recommend this tape if you're looking for a something to ease away tension. - posted by Debbie on 1/29/2006 |
